Noise Criminal
it appears I'm not the only person here who watched somebody they loved systematically destroy themselves with drug addiction. Last night I was remembering such a person who was very dear to me and had to get this out of my system. I guess it's not art or inspiration - maybe therapy...
I hatched from an egg
it was colored black
no clever words or numbers
could give me what I lack
I once had a husband
he ain't coming back
another said he loved me
and got me hooked on crack
I once had a family
I once had a dream
now I dream of dying
and wake to my own screams
I'm skin and bone
and so very alone
I'm about to step
into the twilight zone
I'm going dark
oh no
I'm going dark
am I such a monster?
and the devil too?
I'm disposable
because I'm not like you
I am still a human
I am still alive
the judges at the table
score my perfect dive
opportunity land
but not from where i stand
so I hit the pipe
and let the dark expand
I'm behind the moon
I'm off the scope
I dropped the ball
and then lost all hope
I'm going dark
oh no
I'm going dark
I'm you
I'm, me
whatever you pay me to be
I hatched from the black egg
please dont pity me
I've become the darkness
there's nothing left to see.
