Sadomasochism

Scars from razors long since rusted and discarded
Like we have discarded our used up flesh
The ashes of our holocaust billow up
From the furnaces below
This is the hell that we have wrought
Flower petals scattered like track marks
Symbolic of the hours we've lost

And all the people passing in the streets
Give off the same despondency
Their faces contort like the surface of water
I cannot look them in the eyes

Or maybe it's the passing minutes
The feeling of blood flowing through my veins

And the broken glass on my skin
And your dead gaze
And their fucking lies

The trees slump down in the distance
Expressing foul rancor
Exuding their disdain for the earth
The pine needles pierce my skin

The euphoria that I felt when I looked into your eyes
Is a pallid reflection of the cicatrices on our arms

It's sadomasochism
