Haggard Delusions

Save me your lies, just spare me the time
Beginnings and endings now hard to define
Greying and hazy, the edges have blurred
A hollow abyss but I'll never learn

No places to hide or discard this regret
No matter how dirty I'm willing to get
Haggard delusions of honeymoon bliss
Rasping last breaths through lifeless blue lips

Calloused,controlled, bloodied and bruised
I've a heart and a soul that I'm learning to use
I hate how I wait, standing in line
Parading and flaunting your evil designs

Yet still, you abuse once my senses are dead
I can't feel the beat so i claw at my chest
To check I still function, I'm being, I fight
To de-humanise me will come at a price
