Lying in Ruin
A life left with only memories
A direct result of lies and worthless guarantees
I laugh at your failure. The only thing that brought me joy
This perfect end brings me peace
Knowing that I have overcome
All the lies that you used for your personal gain
Crawl into the Darkness
The ashes of what you created
Lie in disaster
Relish on the fact that you have lost
I have only one true regre
The day I made the connection
Tear it apart. dispose the thought
Your part in my life was a mistake
An Embarrassment to walk in your shadow
I let you control every step I took.
Like so many that held you
You wore me down
With your lies and your empty promises
And for that there is no forgiveness
Your new found failure, Is your punishment
I thrive on your pain, On your punishment. Your sin
And now when you are lying in defeat
Think about those who let you manipulate them
How they gave everything for your name
Only to satisfy your hunger for power
Every action was a desperate attempt
for self preservation
You failed. ending our time
I'm left empty with no remorse
in regret I curse your name
Burial from within
