Blind Ego

Blind Ego

You left me to surely die

because you say you care

but you really have to cover your ass

buried in your rules somewhere

You left me to just scrap by

barely able to survive

while you read from an article

amongst your arsenal of archives

You sat on your pious throne

carved from your arrogant learned ego

and sentenced me to a dark death

just for a circus show

To show that you can read?

to show that you can talk?

but you’ll never understand the show

because you’ve never walked the walk

You’ve never had death claw at you

in the darkness of your mind

and rip your very soul apart

because your ego makes you blind

Blind to the terror in my eyes

blind to my tears and frantic pleas

blind to the dying breath I gasp on

just to prove that you can read
