Squatter

Our time is over
Now recalibrated from your mental slaughter
Slaughter

So naïve to think
I could believe you were my lover
Just a squatter, just a squatter, a fuckin' squatter
Squatter

Ultimately I am free
But no assertion that I'm still me
A twisted shadow of my former self
I suppose it's my fate
I'm now forced to accommodate
An unknown me, have I been expelled?

Always occupied, since I opened up I'm compromised

After too much time
I'm no longer hoping to die
What doesn't kill us only makes us ponder
Finally out of my life
You're now a squatter stuck in my mind
My thoughts now a pathetic maunder

I've only felt cursed, since I let you in cos I let myself hope

All I want
Disallowed
Biding time
To strive somehow
For normalcy
Just staring down
Feeling like
Forever's now

Now you're finally gone
At least physically I press on
But will I imitate you going forward
Gone are the days
I assumed I only merit praise
Now I'm lashing out when I abhor to

Yeah, but I'm learning to embrace
Every passing rancid thought, I'm attempting to reverse
Now you serve as a reminder of what not to be

Now I am grateful for the lessons you gave me
I keep you locked down, now I'll learn to be free
Now I am grateful for the lessons you gave me
I keep you locked down, now I'll learn to be free
