Shell Of A Being

Deceived by the unseen forces
That lurked within his mind
Dwelling in the distorting bottle
Changing thy fate for all of time
Personality and intelligence crucified
Crushing all will to live
Never finding the needed escape
Drifting endlessly, his soul to take

Thrust into adolescent perversity
Scars that can never be healed
Many a tale that was never told
The darkest misery takes its hold

Running through life, hoping for death
Seeking an end with every last breath
Temporarily pacifying the dread
With a false and twisted infatuation
Games of the mind bringing it down
High to low within seconds
Brainwashed by the eternal liar
Bringing you to your funeral pyre

The moment of the deepest sorrow
Comes to this shell of a being
The cold black metal pressed to his chest
The evil inside lays him to eternal rest
