Thank You For The Venom [Poem]

Jul 05, 2007 13:12


Sister, I'm not much of a poet

Stop calling me one

But a criminal

I am indeed

And you never had a chance.

To try to change it.

Love it or leave it

I'm not gonna change

You can't understand

How I act

A pretty face

So I should act girly?

But you do

Feel like you know me

So carry on

Thinking

And on and on

That you know me

I wouldn't front the scene

I'd rather stay alone

If you paid me

Nothing would change

I'm just the way

I was meant to be

That the doctor made me

The doctor of my heart.

On, and on, and on

Goes your disapproval

Love the red the rose

Remindful of blood

On your coffin door

The shedding that you caused.

Whats life like bleeding on the floor

Can you feel your last breaths?

The floor, the floor, the floor

Is where they'll find you

You'll never make me leave

Who I am

I wear this on my sleeve

This mark of who I am

Give me a reason to belive

That someone understands

So give me all your poison

I'm used to it.

And give me all your pills

Numb my pain

And give me all your hopeless hearts

Filled with dreams of true love

And make me ill

With your fake love

You're running after something

Leave it

That you'll never kill

Thier spirt

If this is what you want

To change me

Then fire at will

But it won't help

Preach all you want but

I'm not listening

Who's gonna save me?

Noone

I keep a gun on the book you gave me

It's always close at hand

Hallelujah, lock and load

Don't talk to me

Black is the kiss

Of death

The touch of the serpent son

I crave

It ain't the mark of the scar that makes you one

Of the people who try to hurt me

And one, and one, and one

Of the people who try to change me

You'll never make me leave

My personality behind

I wear this on my sleeve

This symbol of me

Give me a reason to belive

You care

So give me all your poison

I love it now

And give me all your pills

Numb my pain

And give me all your hopeless hearts

Filled with hopeless dreams

And make me ill

With your lies

You're running after something

My freedom, my spirit, who I am

That you'll never kill

So just leave me

If this is what you want

You're out of luck

Then fire at will

But it's not going to do any good

You'll never make me leave

My home

I wear this on my sleeve

This... brand

You wanna follow something

That you can't harm

Give me a better cause to lead

Doesn't mean I'll actually lead it

Just give me what I need

And I'll try to change

Give me a reason to belive

That someone out there cares

So give me all your poison

Its a long journy

And give me all your pills

To dull down my pain

And give me all your hopeless hearts

With your hopeless dreams

And make me ill

With all this hatred

You're running after something that you'll never kill

My heart

If this is what you want then fire at will

I will not surrender

So give me all your poison [Fire at will]

Thank you for it

And give me all your pills

That try to change me

And give me all your hopeless hearts [Fire at will]

We will never have the same feelings

And make me ill

With this thing you refer to as love

You're running after something [Fire at will]

Me

That you'll never kill

So drop it

If this is what you want [Fire at will]

Go ahead and hurt me

Then fire at will

See if it will change ANYTHING
