Venomous

They long matured into my default

You come

And you go

But you are never here

Nor are you ever really gone

A gps tracker

A lion on the hunt

I am your prey

If I give up

Then you win

If I fight

You win

Always

So many times

I've had to double take

And again, just to make sure

And again I fail

And again you win

You watch

Every step

Every misstep

You see

You are everywhere

No matter how much

I take back my power

You seem to take it back away

I am weary

And I want to give up

I want to give up so bad

If I knew it would protect my wife

I would do it

But you have no promise

You have no dignity

No follow through

I am weary

And I want to give up

But I don't

I won't

I can't

I gave you to much already

I gave you to much of me

I've taken all I can endure from you

I won't give you my death

I didn't survive this far

To let you take me down

I stand

I stand and I fight

I will have the last act

I will take the last act

Take out the middle men

And face me

Face me

You owe me that much

You owe me a whole lot more

Face me, coward

Face me
