Acid
I was ruined as a child
The cure known to nobody
The pain mine to harbor
The death of myself going further
Steps forward and steps back
There is no right track
A chemical introduced in my youth
A chemical to confuse what is truth
Sent into karmic torture
Medicated so we can’t feel the damage
Festering under the bandage
A child introduced to the devil
Deciding to take a walk with him
Knows not who to blame
When it seems now that she can’t escape him
Adulthood is too much to bear
Shame repressed in the air
I am missing an eye
People gag and cough at my mind
The illness will spread
And though you may not notice,
Awareness we lack,
It’ll all come undone and you won’t know until there’s no going back
Everywhere I go
Never alone
Stuck to my surroundings
Mind confounding
Spreading confusion
In this web of illusion
I am the burden
Leave me to rot
If you get something out of me you’ve got what you needed
If you are here for me you end up regretting my birth
Forced to witness the terror of a damaged existence
