Some Friendly Advice
You need to just stop
break the habit
like you've been breaking necks
& dear sir,
I know you think this taste of pain is better
(I've kissed it too)
(in fact, we were lovers)
You've been spreading so much fire
but haven't you heard?
when you play
- burned
so much fire
so much fire
and you need to quit pointing
before you lose your fingers
because lesser demons find it tasty
the fingers you use
and I'm not much better
when you claim I'd leave you
when you claim I'm different
well deserved
all the pain I acquired
Can you believe that?
All this time you've been proclaiming the end
as if you're a lone in this
but I've walked a block
or two of this world
I've got a scar or two
or three
or four
ran this race just a little faster
and I know this block
I know this league
even after it all,
still you disbelieve
Understand
years have passed
and history has been in rewind
replay
replay
and these problems have been around
you're not the only one
and the fact is,
you just need to grow up.
There are worse things than this.
