Is my soul worth the price of recklessness

Will the forever stains on be worth the experience

The mars on my humanity

Will taint the blood that runs through me

A monster of man

This is what I am

These hard times made me desperate

I did what I needed

It was not my fault

I am a monster of man

My demons and pasts haunt my hours so

Why must my hardships be lived again

And why must my guilt be felt once a new

For once  was a young one

It is always mine to burden alone

As I do and it haunts me so

My Insanity drives spikes and rivets into my brain

How long is madness at bay

What is genius when it is hidden

Why fight when I can succumb

These demons don't let me sleep

They are everywhere tearing my life apart

When do lies become absurdity

And when did I begin to believe them too

The perfect crime is just that

A blemish that makes you evil for eternity

The price of immortality is an act for and worthy of remembrance

A man is not immortal

For to try is his madness

His actions can live forever but little is it known

Or sought to try for it through his actions

He will strive for his perfection but will wind up in my madness

When he screams it's my nightmare

When I hunger he will be a feast

Of pain and sorrow to fill the void left by my crimes and guilty conscious

For my soul is no more so it hungers greater

And mine are the demons to face

A burden left to the strongest of heart

The foolish in action and the one made in mind

All mine

Help is a burden not taken

My madness will steal you too

I am alone in my struggles

My demons

My reflection

Is it still pain when it is imagined

Is it still hatred when there is no rhyme or reason

No sanity

No conviction

Is it still insanity when I diagnose
