Parasitic selfishness
Baptized in fear
All I saw was a coward
When the smoke cleared
I fell from heaven
Clawed my way out of hell
I bathed in the flames
Self lacerated abandoned with nothing to lose
Aimlessly roaming down a path I didn't choose
Mindlessly fractured by years of abuse
I bathed in the flames I was banished from the pew
Bathed in the flames, banished from the pew
Tell me
Am I a monster?
When I bathe in the flames
I was banished from the pew
The scars of time
Stitched into my face
Paint a map
Of all the ways
That I desperately and unsuccessfully tried to escape
I tried to escape
I'm drifting away
On the rivers of shame
Death is coming for me
But this time I'm not afraid
