The Spineless Freak

Benighted

Compositor: Kevyn Foley

On the dark side where you crawl
Within four walls
Perceptions lost
Betrayed by my senses
Look what I’ve become
Your incessant speeches
And relentless whispers have killed the silence for years already

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull
The spineless freak

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull
My face as a shield

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull
The spineless freak

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull
I will keep you on a leash
Over my dead body

Left me with the shadow of a fleeing sleep
You’ve always been there, where no one could see you

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull

Just your insidious presence
The threatening words your absent lips pronounce
Waiting in the dark, in unreachable places
That the mind forbids you to see

Forbids you to see

You have no name, no shape, no reflection
Swimming in an abstract dimension

I reject you and those of your kind
Confused, persecuted
I despise you, dissociated, alone and ashamed
And the day will come
During one of these so-called lucidity crisis
I’ll bring your absence down with me
A relic which will soon fade from memory
And by the blade, I’ll savor every drop of your fall
Absorbed by the void

My malevolent friend

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull
The spineless freak

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull
My face as a shield

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull
The spineless freak

Crawl, crawl, crawl
Behind the skull
I will keep you on a leash

The spineless freak
