The Bridge

The Bridge

A Poem by Declan Cooney
"

Ode to an ostentatious oddity. Song available on HTP's "Indestructible" COMING SOON!

"
Hurry! Come on, its all comin down
Cease all fire, and release the hounds
Run for your life, so you don't get fucked
Lying to me is like the devil lookin' up
And wishing that he could go back to heaven
Ditch the triple sixes, smoke it up with the sevens
You left me for no reason, now I'm bringin it back
Broke my knuckles a few times, but endurance I don't lack
I wanna bridge our division cause I'm feelin like s**t
I'm waiting.
Its your turn.
I'll meet you on the bridge.

Being down with the devil, yo, I'm hated with spite
Which is chill, 'cause darkness rocks, and I'm afraid of the light
Changing like society I took a turn for the worse
Now my psychosis is a blessing when it used to be a curse
But my mama, she told me, "what doesn't kill you makes you strong"
And I've been killing all these b*****s, but they tell me that its wrong
If you die, then you're weak
There's no reason to complain
We all infect society, so death won't be in vain
So sustain your bitchin and keep your comments to yourself
Or I'll cut your head off your body, and put it on my shelf
But the bridge dont show mercy, its an inanimate thought
You take depression and aggression and give it all you got
But a canyon lies between us, and we're out on a ridge
You wanna fall to a lonely death?
Or help me with this bridge?

Ground Control, come in, this is Omega 13
(Copy that, soldier, are you seeing what I'm seeing?)
Yeah, that's the bridge I built, made with sorrow and doubt
I guess every bridge has gotta burn (Yeah)
Over and Out

Have you ever seen something, that just makes you look away
Thats what I see in myself, in the mirror every day
Something dispicable, which is probably what you see
'Cause that's the bit of you, left inside of me
Because you still think there's truth along with love in your lies
I'm tired of fighting tears and being the only one who tries
I'm tired of your false hope, and guilt trips around the world
You left my heart.
You're not angel.
You're just a stupid girl.

I regret what I said, because I was naive and young
But more or less stupid, retarded, and dumb
I don't know why I let this hurt me so much
I can't even stand to look at you
Much less enjoy your touch
So I'll leave you with this
'Cause you're the one who quit
You're a dumb f*****g c**t
Thanks for burning my bridge.
