For the Dark in Me

I am empty all I feel is apathy Without care for sentiment I've become a king of callousness My bloodstained crown I bear upon my throne of deceit grants me nothing But assurance that there is evil within me Heaven looks down upon me disgustingly while the mouth of hell salivates anxiously Evil clutches me and carries me on its wings of suffering hate consumes me And sends me through the depths of despair as I am falling There is no salvation nor a paradise above I love all that I hate and the only reason is for the dark in me Scars on my back mark the lies I've weaved into a blood red cloak these threads assembled by a blackened oath Villain lacks significance I'm a herald of iniquity my attire of deprivation Adorned with lace of condemnation Heaven looks down upon me disgustingly while the mouth of hell salivates anxiously There is no salvation nor a paradise above I love all that I hate and I despise all that I love My self inflicted wounds continue bleeding profusely with darkness As my canvas I'll paint the image of the dark in me I have no desire to burn in fire neither do I wish to lie in hypocritic skies I don't seek to displease either side of purgatory But the hate that I display is only for the dark in me I can no longer hold on but there's no hope of breaking free This chain is bound to me and each link is an extension of my insanity I have no desire to burn in fire neither do I wish to lie in hypocritic skies I don't seek to displease either side of purgatory But the hate that I display is only for the dark in me For The Dark in Me It needs it feeds it bleeds For The Dark in Me It sees it breathes it speaks
