Little Antidote

Dark Lyrics/Poetry

By Keisha ManuelPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Little Antidote:

Right or Wrong

You're always strong

Yet barely even breathing....

Condemned, you fell

It's easy to tell

Pick up the pieces to feed them.

TELL ME

The pieces fit.

YOU'RE NOTHING

That I can't fix.

IT'S BURNING...

But I can hardly even tell...

The perfect little antidote

To your little spell.

Sear the flesh

And harden the eyes

To a world that you can't

COMPROMISE!

PROMISE ME

The world for ashes

EMPTY

Another promise lacking

WHY CAN'T WE

Escape from here

The monster within is only

Feeding your FEARS!

Through stitched lips

And swollen eyes...

For all the years...

Eating nothing but lies...

Coming to call...

Coming to call...

Anger is better than feeling nothing at all!

Pick up the pieces to feed them....

Pick up the pieces to feed them....

Pick up the pieces to feed them....

PICK UP THE PIECES!RAAA!!!!

PROMISE ME

The world for ashes

EMPTY

Another promise lacking

WHY CAN'T WE

Escape from here

The monster within is only

Feeding your FEARS!

STEP UP!

STEP IN!

COME DOWN!

YOUR SIN!

Pick up the pieces to feed them....

STEP UP!

Pick up the pieces to feed them....

STEP IN!

Pick up the pieces to feed them....

COME DOWN!

Pick up the pieces to feed them...

YOUR SIN!

PICK UP THE PIECES!!!!
