Here it is

Here it is, wide open,

 Take a look, hell climb inside

 Here I am, time for the reveal

 A gaping hole where a tired

 Withered heart is still

 Barely beating and lungs

 That are forced to breathe air

 Against their will

 Hands that could not learn

 To quit petting burning dogs

 A mouth sewed shut to prevent

 Words from causing self-inflicted

 Injuries, unnecessary pain

 So step up, get in line

 I won’t hold back

 Take your turn, see what you can do

 I’m ready now

 Cause somehow you still see me

 A person you never even knew

 With a full, blood red beating heart

 Lungs that live to breath life

 Every second of it

 Hands that can melt the coldest shoulder

 And a mouth that speaks

 The sweetest words

You’ve ever heard

 So step up with your delusions

 And I won’t hold back

 And in time

 You too will come to know

 My demons and my pension

 For constantly slipping

 You will come to know

 The fucked up scenarios that

 All added up created

 The shadow of the man you see before you.
