Sea Of Leeches

Downward

Into the abyss

Into the pit

Into the crowd of leeches

Bloodsucking

Naive leeches

Downward

Into it

The sea of cowards

The ocean of liars

Their fake laughs echo through the world

The same lies

Being retold

Forever

Downward

Into the pit

The apologies don’t mean shit anymore

It’s the same pattern as always

A selfish mistake

Then

an apology

Enough is enough

Downward

Into this poisoned rock

We’re slowly killing it

and some nights

as I lay awake

I can hear her scream

I can hear this rock screaming in pain

In a slow torture

It cries out

I continue as usual

Downward

Downward

Downward

The web of webs

The poisoned rock

The lies masked as ‘news’

The fake laughs of the polite

The toxic sea

It all needs saving

and I am not the savior of this world

Neither are you

So downward we go

Down

Down

Down

Into the abyss we call society

That soul-sucking bitch

Conform to it

or

swim against it

and that current rages

Rages

Rages

Rages

Get along with the leeches

or

peel them off of your skin.
