Ballista - God's Image

A rust stained sky
A black goodbye
A grayscale lack of words
Humanity
Evades me
Identity
Annihilates me

Hammer me into shape
Skin me alive
Hammer me into shape
Buried inside
Hammer my into shape
Skin me alive
Hammer me into shape

Everyday another portrait
Everyday another heartbreak
Everyday another image that devastates
Another memory that obliviates me

My body
Isn't mine
Purgatory
Locked inside
Locked away inside my rib cage
I can't escape the gaze

I don't recognize the person I see
I'm so sick of this complacency
When the act of sight becomes self harm
It's my eyes that make my scars

I've never felt so close
Yet so far left behind

God's image

God's image is stitched to my mirror
I tear him in two and my vision gets clearer
Hammer me into shape
Disgusting how my bones interlace
