The Monster within

Has a taste for the blood of my own

No one else really truly knows

Slipping and crashing so hard.

If they only had a portion of my pint

Would they be crawling for more

Addiction and pain for the eye to see

I keep this packed with nicotine

What I become became

They say that this is not forever

Words that really mean nothing

If it's not forever it's still now

And it hurts like hell.

I crave one thing but can never gain

That love and affection I see all around

Yet can never obtain that feeling myself

Alone I be, but even when I'm in a crowd

All I manage to do is push and shout...

Push the killer with the dagger away

Before they inflict irreparable pain

Though the dagger never existed

Fermented and fragranced by my memory

This rollercoaster never ends

Towering and smoldering over

Where am I again?

They describe this cycle as borderline

When does that border reach its end?
