Delusion

You've covered yourself in blankets,

Like you're hiding from the bogey man

You're so enraptured with your own ego

That you reject the helping hand.

You twisted what was a friendly gesture

And called it your very right

Now it's time for you to fade away

Into the bitter cold of night.

I'm about to show you reality

So stay tuned and watch me work

I'll paint you a vivid picture

That'll give your heart a jerk.

See you though you should be top side

Basking in the morning glory

But you're sitting in a filthy sewer 

This is your fucking story.

When you first stepped upon the crowds,

Like a sea full of angry sharks

They rise upon a swelling wave

And send you somewhere dark. 

Bleeding, chopped and mutilated

Hung like a piece of rotting meat

Just give up on your dignity

And accept your own defeat.
