Funny Øne

I run on tragedy

Brought by the violence

Of things I perceive

That appear from the silence

No mask coming off

I just sit in the quiet

And hope when I grin

There is someone who buys it

Oh, how they play

With my mind, like they own it

They don't know the pain

That I have, I alone sit

Flashes of streets

Flood my mind, my composures

Waning away

Do I know where my home is?

Mental strain, my thoughts darken

No light, and an oak casket

All games to a ringmaster

With no soul, what a sick bastard

Funny one, but the fool now

Broken soul, and a hell bound

Darkened rooms make the thoughts loud

Feeling claustrophobic and I want out

Breathe in, let the sleep take me

Breathe out, there is no escaping

Breathe in, you don't need saving

Breathe out, there is none waiting

Never wanted to be part of something

Always broken, busted, with a name discarded

Coz I toss and I turn when I know I'm nothing

If there was salvation, it has since departed

Kill me softly with your lies

Bleed me dry until your satisfied

Wring my neck with your mind

Till emotions suicide

I know the pain that's deep inside

May seem shy, but give it time

Till agony turns to delight

Give me hell, and I won't fight

Welcome to the hell

Of a glitch circus

Give a little freedom

So you might serve us

Never give a thought

For the word you heard is

Often reminisce

Of a darker purpose

See the hope you feel

Now snuff it out

Never give a damn

And lose your mouth

Coz no one here will hear

When you scream and shout

For your body's a carcass

Walk around

Yeah funny one

That's the one I claim to be

But the person that I was

Is now a memory

Feel the world is closing in

And I can barely breathe

Thought we're suffering together

But it's clear to see

I'm alone in this sick endeavor

And it's clear that I won't get better

Wear the mask and pretend a go getter

Wear it now, keep it on forever
