What's Wrong

Threatening Words

You threaten me with sharpened words

Letting each dose flow under my skin

My veins are pulsating with deadly poison

And my head hurts from the bat you use

Threatened with bluntness, attacked with pride

I feel metal edges dig into my head

And crack me down to the last bone

I'm barely breathing, but you won't stop

Spewing sentences like you've consumed lava

The heat tears off my skin and exposes my bare self

But that's not enough for you, is it?

Threaten me with words, kill me with lies

Topple the government while you're at it

Because you follow a path to total annihilation

And your words are your greatest weapons
