Dam

Matthew Main

d*mn you
Stay the f*ck away from me
I've got a disease
It's worse than your... HIV

Everyone... is dying
Everyone... is sleeping
Everyone... is dying
Everyone... is sleeping

d*mn you
f*ck you
For putting hate in me
For putting faith in me

They're going to take away your lives
They're going to steal you with their lies
Because everyone is dying
Everyone is sleeping

They're going to take away our minds
They're going to take away our time
Because everyone is sleeping
Everyone is dying

You're putting hate in me
You're putting your faith in me
Nobody is joining
Nobody is morning
Putting hate in me
Putting faith in me

d*mn you

Matthew Main

I write when I'm bored. I write when I feel inspired. I write when I feel I must. My writings are about whatever you want them to be about. It means more to me, what my poems mean to you. If that makes any since. My inspirations for writing are music. The main musical influences on my writing are the bands, Scars on Broadway, and System of a Down. more…
