A HELPLESS PSYCHOPATH



Roaming around and living for nothing.
This adolescent mind keeps on screaming.
Closed my eyes and stepped towards the unknown.
In the end, we're all alone...

I can't bear this sin,
I dug the grave and searched for a light.
It's so much harder to breathe,
So selfishly chasing to win the fight.

Feels like I'm a psychopath.
Who's gonna choose the same path?
Cultivate your heart, you can't notice me again.
I've left before, 'coz our lives are in vain.

This mind is a prison,
Pushing us to create a vision.
Infects us with every pain,
Alas! There's no gain.

Everything is full of lies,
Walked away and tried to rise.
These thoughts will stay, I can't live in,
Bury it and put me in my coffin.

Feels like I'm a psychopath.
Who's gonna choose  the same path?
Cultivate your heart, you can't notice me again.
I've left before, 'coz our lives are in vain.

Dealt with hatred, you thought I'm afraid.
You called me hopeless, but hope remains within your head.
I've lost my way.
Nothing's real, these torture won't even heal.

What have I become?
A psychopath.

A helpless psychopath.
