Encounter

This is a poem, as if I were to meet myself.

Hello, I guess it's nice to meet you too

First thing you should know, I see right through you

I don't seek virtue, I wont bleed for you

I flea from truth It's the only thing that keeps me true

It keeps me true, it peaks for clues

Anything that keeps me a step before the view

Throw you into the flames to see if I believe you flew

Maybe it'l give us something to relate to

 

I feel stuck desperately swimming in this sea of glue

They lied to my f*****g face, I don't see any blue

It's not quite beaut, there is no fleet of youth

There's just me and you looking for the leaf I drew

The leaf I drew, the one I always reviewed

Until my mind went crazy and released my ghouls

Enemies dripped in pools my loved ones became my tools

Maybe we do have something we relate to

 

I don't think I'll ever let you fly

You'll be lucky to even see the sky

You might make it out if you grasp this land

Let go of my hand, I have it all planned

 

I don't think I'll ever let you fly

You'll be lucky to even see the sky

You might make it out if you grasp this land

Let go of my hand, I have it all planned

 

I'm always filling my body with unbelievable angst

I hang out with Mallory and let my table taste

Get a good look at my labeled face with this lacerate

I begin to trace everything in this cable race

The first one to place is the last to sables base

If you rush you wont find out who my fable grazed

You'll see the blood but you wont savor the blame

You'll just wonder why you should favor the claim

 

Hop on the train think you changed your game

But what you leave behind will always stay the same

I can't lay in your lane I can't frame your fame

In lamest terms I can't prey what you portray

I'll torture the pain so you can betray the gain

While you move forward I'll continue to play with clay

Mold it into something that wont fade away

But I feel jumping will be the only thing to save today
