awakening
so here it is all the way down here in gravity slaves to this planet's orbit destroyed simply by not knowing where we are at we're down here in gravity the lowest part of the well where all of the water is supposed to be now i'm down in it and i was up above it dark nature's theme song me going down cats and bats and lots of three legged rats to haunt my safe backspace all of the above dies and yet here i dwell in real human pain fetishizing my nightmares and worshipping the mercy of blessed aloneness my greatest critics turn and turn again inside outing me through another brutal cold rinse cycle no one knows the know how nothing of the world that traps me in it's greedy jaws light comes loud screaming and mean all about ending where i am darkness is the blanket the mutation device of real human fear if they can't see me they can't see the things that i've done they can't really realize with whom and with what they are dealing with this is the infinite in your face this is the black on your street who makes you see red this is the empty inside that shows you how much nothing you really are
