Viper

I chose the form of a human
To escape what I really am
I spoke and moved as they did
But no matter how hard I try
I could never be one of them

And I wish I could feel it
And I wish I could be them

Searching for an old friend in the afterlife
I found the origin of my creation
I looked into the eyes of a demon
As it changed into something that looked like me

And I wish I could feel it
Forever, forever
And I wish I could heal it
I would like to be like them

From the unclean
I am viper
Son of the serpent
And I watch myself shed my skin
But I just want to be a good man

Over many lifetimes
I have hid through different species
But being human taught me compassion

I wish that in my passing
I could take their pain away
Reveal their potential

And I wish I could
Feel it
Forever, forever
And I wish I could heal it
I would like to be like them

One thousand years
One thousand forms
Cut me off from where I'm from
And what I never asked for
And I wish I could feel it
I would like to be like them

I am set to be decommissioned
For denying my true nature
So finish me
