At The Mercy Of Your Own

Out of shame, out of spite, or malicious intent
To admonish one most suppressingly
Assist and assault in the same blow
Offer accuracy entangled with sabotage
If it's half, consider it whole

On judgement day, there was no perpetration
It was always there, if you'd wanted to see
The decision resounds
Encouraged to grow for thousands of days
"This is all there is"

You kill and are killed
Now you're safe

Under the guise of safety or necessity
Restriction remains restriction
Advancements of awareness may resonate in solitude

On the contrary
Consider this soil for disgrace and "advancements of" severance
Enjoy the prideful self-obedience
You are serving you who serves no one

Trust not a single man
Yet lord privacy derives credence from you

Will your patience abide in playing warden for the year? for the decade
The prisoners' designations are venial
What is the function of their internment
Freedom from disturbance
Freedom from interference
These are the banners which will embellish your grave

Equal exchange
A riddle for something to hide
Something that can be taken away
Demise was self-inflicted, yet manufactured top down

You will plead at the mercy of your own judgement
An endless conviction you choose to live through
A sacrifice to somewhere
An attempt at apology for the departing as an innocent who'd killed their first
You got away, but you will forever forbid your getting away

On judgement day, there was no perpetration
It was always there, if you'd wanted to see
The decision resounds
"It's not giving up"
"The game already ended here"
