Instructions for Alienation

Build your inner wall
And cower behind it
So that the world
Will not behold
Your Warped Facade

Design the verbal trap
And dig a moat
So that all wanderers
Will never reach the core

Construct the labyrinth
With bricks and mortar and deceit
and fill it with hallucinations
So that the truth will never be revealed
Shatter the ground that binds
And drift as an island to the waters
So that none can ever see
That you are empty

Created through scars of the past
A living kicking screaming fear
Paranoia that roams these halls
Pushing further all who dare come near
No trust or care, I dare to spare
For this undeserving world

Sway them with big words
Tell them what they want to hear
Wear the mask and never take it off
A fake grin and veins full of fear

No one will ever live to see
My center of existence
The ever-growing, ever-bleeding wound
The gaping hole, wormed forever
Where life once roamed now there is nothing

And when I stare all I can see
Is nothing has remained
And all the effort I could give wouldn't affect a thing
Where life once roamed now there is nothing
