Meant To Last

fine tuning the process of alienation allows life to be neglected

nauseated by the choices that are left to be selected

addiction screams loudly but I am the only one who can hear it

conviction makes a mockery in the fact that I fear it

rotting in decay is the promise that you once made

in the twilight of finality I watch the glitter fade

I once believed

now deceived

I was able to stand

only to be damned

incoherent ramblings describe the calls

the ravenous feed on my soul as the curtain falls

a karmic remedy of the witches brew

a memory that forgets what I once knew

holding on to the razor that cuts the pills

your kiss is the pain that so beautifully kills

your words a nightmare left for my eternity

your love was the end, the final death of me

now in a shell with the ghosts of a past

a curse of corruption that was meant to last
