Devil Inside of Me

There's a technical difficulty
And my brain is wired to aimlessly analyze infinity
An endless loop of disturbed images
My foggy grasp eclipsed my clouding judgement
Body defies
Caught in the drought
Emerging doubt

Act out your life like tragedy
Hopeless romantic, mendacity
Ephemeral happiness, shed the veil
Reveal - a beast - prevails

Let the curtain fall, as dark as its secrets
A play whose purpose is but to exist

Disclose secrets to appear weak
Contorted, something is awry
Numb sacrilege
Dismal ravage

Make out their lives like comedy
The most pitiful mendacity
Evanescent is thy veil
Closure - the dark details

I feel the final act nearing
The climax in reach, I regress

Oh, what am I ever to do?

Crack the hourglass and spread its contents across the floor
And sift through every grain, searching for purpose in this idle void
A presence sinister is making itself known
And I will watch it grow, because indifference seems so effortless
And I will watch it grow
Like a storm, I know...

Oh, the devil is inside of me

Make out their lives like tragedy
Humorless mendacity
Evanescent is thy veil
Closure - the dark details

Let the curtain fall, as dark as its secrets
A play whose purpose is but to exist
