Cognitive Dissonance (A Black Sarcasm)

Here again
Back where I belong
Not a prisoner
Yet again I've found I'm simply standing still too long
In a cage of my own design
Maybe one day I'll cross that line

But I know my own heart by now
It's a simple thing
And it keeps me alive like I never needed any blood at all
It'll suffer pain and loss at around eighty beats a minute
But I loathe my own heart

Deeper down in the well below
Feel the cold now
How I got myself into this state I'll never know
Rotting here in the ground alone
And I'm laughing but I don't get the joke

But I know my own heart by now
It's a simple thing
And it keeps me alive like I never needed any blood at all
It'll suffer pain and loss at around eighty beats a minute
How I loathe my own heart

Think about all the things I'll never be
Celebrate no success or victory
Maybe I'll find a better substitute for love
Breaking down all the walls in front of me
Try and not rue the end I'll never see
Knowing I'm only going to starve the seeds I sow

But I know my own heart by now
It's a simple thing
And it keeps me alive like I never needed any blood at all
It'll suffer pain and loss at around eighty beats a minute
How I loathe my own heart

How I loathe my own heart
Now I know my own heart
