Strangled

The blade was inches away from my source of life
If it went right in what would've happened-
The thought still tears at my mind

But self resentment reaffirms all of my earlier crimes
And the effects haven't ceased hurting even with the passing of time

This disaster that I've created always occupies my mind
All day I'm angry so I shout profanities
All night I lay awake, sleep deprived
I am truly convinced that I've lost my sanity

But I'm just growing up
Sometimes caving in
One day I should be forgiven
I mean, everyone sins.

Still, these thoughts so mangled
And severely tangled,
They strangle me
Someone please, set me free.

The Veil Of Sanity

The veil of sanity. Shields my face. Behind this facade. Madness does grace. The whispers torment. The shouts they hurt. Inner turmoil drives. My face in the dirt. Perplexed of mind.

Greed (an Extension To You Got The World...)

You didn't really need all that stuff, the bigger office, the bigger chair, the bigger desk and that bigger hat to wear... You had a little office, with a practical desk, a comfy chair.
