Sober

You fester inside me

Tearing up everything human that's left in me

I can't get you out of me

You've bled everything that can bleed

In my soul you've left your seed

You crushed my world

From the inside out

You imploded my sanity

Your weed grows in my mind

Hungry for my emotions

Eating everything I feel

Leaving me empty

Leaving me cold

Leaving me sober



You fill my body with your poison

Intoxicate my mind and body

Melt my thoughts with your acidic hate

Push me out and push me down

Take the oxygen from my lungs

Let me drown in your liquid death

Hungrily swallowing your evil

Burning away all my passion

Passing my skewered heart over flames of anger

All the time growing more and more bitter

More resentful of you

You boil my soul till there is nothing left

Leaving me empty

Leaving me cold

Leaving me sober
