the kiss of the damned



Damned. Very well then.
been taught another lesson,
shamed and shunned back in the pig pen
i can't recall that far back then
i can't remember when
i wasn't subject to the punishment
drowned in admonishment
you can try to hold me down
but I'm not shackled now
i sink my fangs in deep
and then i crack your crown
how long did you think i would remain your lapdog,
your disgrace
i spit all the poison
p*ss*ng and moaning
back in your face
i listened far too long
and watched 'til i went blind
squelched my inner anguish
while you f*ck*ng whined
now I've pushed past the threshold
of my living hell
and brought the whole thing right back here
for you to dwell
