Padded - Kataplexis

Scratching sanity

Nails torn

Voiceless

Messages seep out the walls of padded rooms

Been here for years

Water drips the same

Sinister thoughts and blackened heart

Patients come and go

But my cut throat can’t be tamed

Stainless steel leather straps to hold me down

Open mouth to scream a whisper in this ghost town

Trying to swallow tongue to end this horror

Induced seizures don’t stop lust for gore

Dark red

Sundress

Bleached skin

Lifeless

Blue eyes

Flicker

Until life

Leaped away

My souls as strained as the scene of the crime

Cut her for days but I kept her alive

400 volts

Electricity

Trying to purge me

Cleansing

Therapy

Dark passenger

Won’t leave

I know I don’t have to do this

Begging for your life won’t help

I know I don’t have to do this

I fucking want to

What’s point of being alive?

With concrete on all sides

Why take another breath

If I can’t take yours?

Punished by evil nature

This mind is a cancer

Trying exorcise the ghost

Kill the parasite kill the host

A monster lives within me

Released by true beauty

The roots of evil run deep

In a mind that never sleeps

What can’t be cured

Must be endured

Acolyte

Weak of mind

Made to kill

Lidless eyes

Insomnia

No control

Scratching

Sanity

Nails torn

Voiceless
