Six Feet Underground

Sometimes id rather be lookin up than down
At this grass beneath my feet

Those words eat
Like maggots crawling and devouring every inch
Digging deeper into the soul

Its not long til its gone
The first sting is all that lasts

Build a wall
You’ll feel safe
In your hate
In your pain

It cant be won
This monstrosity of a game
Its tortuous
Its life

Corroded minds feast on hurting others
But its ok
You tell yourself its ok
Bleeding on the inside
Past the physical
Straight through the mental
Into the emotions
Into the feeling

Tear up
Stand up
Walk right on out
There’s no reason to stay
Except to give way
To more bitter pain
More foolish games
