a pretty good show


Some say you got a purdy mouth
but your mind just don’t match that ideal
Due to that inner ugly
your friends are fairweather
your enemies circling from a safe distance
waiting on that sweet smell of blood
signalling your defeat

How does it feel
the sensation of so many innocent skulls
crushed beneath your heedless heels? 

How does it feel
knowing one day you’ll fall
from that lovely ladders of yours
into an anonymous grave? 

Not a soul will be stirred to mourning
Some may even be grateful

Since you left

Since you left
I've moved through seas
Since you left
I've climbed mountains
Since you left
I've found all the edge pieces
Since you left
I've ditched the dead weight
Since you left
I've shared smiles and tears
Since you left
I've learned to be alone again
Since you left
I've realised that I'm better off without
But it doesn't mean I don't still miss you
Since you left.
