Hope Abandoned

The metamorphosis of the killer is near
Unrecognized potential boiling inside for years
A catastrophic future shows nothing but ruins
I tried to prolong it, but death is coming soon

You've wasted no time, you've left them for dead
What do you have to say for yourself?
Wait, I'll say it instead
You all walk in circles on the path you've made
Everyone's so scared to start a new road, when one must be paved
Or eventually you'll be below the ground
With others just like you
No one knows how to climb out
Soon panic will ensue
People clawing, screaming, killing their own blood
This is what it's come to, genocide has won
Good thing I stepped away and made my own path
You're welcome to follow, just don't be last

I'm trying to maintain this false sense of hope
I'm afraid if I lose it
I can no longer cope
With these trials and tribulations running all through my brain
Going so fucking fast, I feel I'm going insane
Or is this what it's like to be human?
A flawed piece of walking meat?
I can't fathom how you get through the day
Or are you stuck in make believe?
Searching endlessly for the unseen truth
Just give it up already, there is nothing here for you

I'm sorry I've abandoned hope
You can hold onto your fate
I've already tried searching for answers
But there's too much in the world I hate
