New Walks of Life

Manifest Destiny

I walk this path of misery
inside the confines of my head
and the voices call out to me
from beyond the dark forest
but when I turn my head I see
nothing.
Darkness shrouds every step I take,
the light ahead of me gets dimmer
and less vibrant as I struggle
to move forward.
I'm stuck in a time warp
and I've lost all control
of my mind.
But then, who's in control?

Me, you dumb fuck.
What the fuck are you doing?
You think anyone gives a shit?
You think you're special, don't you?
Well, you're not.
You're part of the same pile of shit
as everyone else.
Why don't you wake the fuck up
and realize everything is worthless.
Your soul is fucked already,
you can't achieve anything in your life,
you're just one big fucking mistake
and that's why you always fuck up.
Shut up with your "positivity" bullshit
and your fake ass sense of hope,
it makes me fucking sick.
You don't even know who the fuck you are
even though I've been here the whole time
following close behind you,
a shadow of darkness.
You're so fucking stupid,
how can you be thinking about this girl?
You don't know shit man,
why are you gonna do this to yourself?
again? for what?
for love?
Ha. Fucking ha.
Have you seen where love has gotten you?
Torn to pieces and barely breathing.
You're just asking for it, aren't you?
Do you even know where you are?
You're in my reality now
and you're not leaving yet.
No.
I think you'll stay for a while.
You think you know what pain is?
You won't even be able to comprehend it.
Just remember "Alex,"
I do it because I "love" you.
Now just relax
and accept your destiny.
Once the darkness has consumed you,
you will feel nothing.
Goodbye Alex.
