Living in Emptiness

See the hate you caused yourself The ones you loved put back in hell You lie, you cheat, you steal for trade Mistakes you wish you hadn't made I hate the pain you've dropped within I'm torn apart, I cannot live The synthetic joy of pathetic needs A life crumbled by your filth & greed You've seen the road to which it leads Alone in four walls is all you see Instead you thought all for yourself Without feeling wrong within itself Can't take no more, I lose, You gain In my world I live, I'm scarred by pain When will it stop, your thoughtlessness? Your life is lived in emptiness You have lived in emptiness I live alone with my hate Aside from confused dismay Unafraid to lose my pride I clench my fists & cry Betrayed I feel inside A chance you have so you may learn Again a chance you may conform I doubt you'll change your sinful world Again the family's overturned Why not return to the kid I knew? A boyish charm you've not outgrown Instead a devil from within the saint Why not wake up & play it straight? You have lived in emptiness --- Living in Emptiness - Eviction
