They don't understand us darling

We lurk in the shadows

Breathe in the essence of our insecurities

Laugh at death as it screams echoes

Into our hollow empty absent-minded skewed

Head

...

It's those bloodshot eyes you're afraid of

I know it all too well

It's these restraints you put on us

That prove

You can't contain us

Once we break free

Not because you think you're "helping us"

It's this smirk plastered on our dumbfounded faces

That keeps you on your feet

...

Hand me a gun

And you'll see this smirk burst into a fit of laughter

Because blood you see

It's a sight to behold

It's marvellous

Take it all in

The agony and screeches

It's music to my ears

I feed on it

I breathe it in

I flirt with what should be killed and burnt to a crisp

...

We are

Rebelling psychotic insane air-heads

Nice to meet you too

I was expecting you to tell me

To stop and be normal

To just follow your rules

Make sure I please you with everything I have

Keep on smiling cheerfully

Since this world is so beautiful I should be grateful I'm even alive

Become a perfect, intelligent, kind person

And become a robot to this god forsaken world

But it appears

You're in restraints too

It's delicious

Almost enticing

To just slit your neck

And lick your blood with this knife

But

I'll give you one last chance

To get out

Leave us alone

Don't contain us with your ropes and handcuffs

Because once you do

You'll never be able to live normally again
