This Last Year

I'd hate to be on the other side of such vicious feelings,
Something deep inside me that can't be ignored,
Don't bathe in your stupidity and seek others for help.
Mindless mumbler, burden those around.
Rely on strength from above when there's strength within,
You don't know what life is worth, believe me, I'm sorry.
Contemplate the end, never thinking about the actual journey.
Fumble your priorities, praying won't do you any good.
If you want something done right, you've gotta do it yourself.
Why argue, come on don't be selfish. People depend on you.
Killer queen, a fence around the heart, always clueless. 
We drew this, the picture depicts the death of two close friends.
It will always be a day to remember, the day we all died a little on the inside.

James you have a crisp and powerful form to your writing. Your phraseology has a heady mix of modern and ancient. In this you mix faith and religion as you vent your feelings at someone who you feel has let you down. Killer queen indeed killer prose!

Kid, this is why I love this. This is harsh but honest. It's something everyone gets mad at hearing but sometimes f*****g need to be told. It explains an entirely different story with each line but it all comes together at the end to make complete sense. You f*****g nailed it. Sick kid. Stay honest no matter how many people you piss off.
