Danger Liker - Folk in Hell

Oh I assure you that I am just immature enough to keep this at the front and centre of my mind
And now I'm sure that this broken trust will endure the rust of time passing and I must sever to survive
Return my life

Submerged in the impure
My worth remains obscure
Blurred images of turbulence converge with hideous permanence
The burns of whispered words
This constant curse endures
Disturbed and rendered purposeless
Assured of abject worthlessness

Ripped from the chrysalis and cast, incomplete, into the abyss
Mocked by the dancing light that scorched my eyes on those black nights
Left lifeless but here I stand amongst snaking shadows, like reaching hands
I am the void, I learn my place within the ugliness of my inner space

You'll never find me, make no mistake
I have nothing left for you to take

I breathed you in
And you clawed your way out through my ribcage
Beneath the skin
The emptiness replaced itself with rage
Only these impulses remain
Create reflections of my pain
This toxic torment clouds my brain
Leaving just an abscess to be drained
I've lost all sense of who I am
Inadequately reprogrammed
Why would you even want to understand?
Why would you give a good god damn

I'll restart my regeneration again
How many times can I do this before the rot sets in?
I can only take so much before I begin constantly smoldering, my withered corpse flooding with

Bloodthirsty animalistic self-destruction
Unearthly, uncontrollable eruptions
Powerless against this deconstruction
Oh let me guess, these feverish feelings need no introduction

Maybe I get carried away
Maybe I like it that way

Inherently useless, irrational passion is apparently my new knee-jerk reaction
Transparently lashing out while those eyes eternally stare at me from the depths of every awful dream

I'm drowning without the release of death
Tortured by the hope of catching my breath

Hypnotise and rob me of my rest
Paralyze the very heart within my chest

Haunted by shattered faith
Unwanted but I'm shackled in place

At least I said my truth
My sole regret is letting my life depend on you

Crush me and break me down
Keep on grinding until you hear the sound
Of my agony resound and echo around you forever

I caught you revelling in my suffering
Reduced to a sadistic plaything
It never ceases to amaze, the pain you bring, and what misery brings you pleasure

Drag me with you below
Where you can sear me nice and slow
Within a hell that we can call our own
At least I'm not burning alone
This heat can't melt your heart of stone
You threw away your chances to attone
All that'll remain will be ash and bone

Until we reanimate the anguish
Despair is the only language we understand

Savour sorrow, it's the only way I know
I've justified the blood that flows and the wrath I bestow
