"Crystallized"

I can still see it coming

It's passed me by so many times

Sick of these pleasantries spoken insicerely

Walking became running

When I couldn't be far enough away

Thoughts without remnants of purity

The light in the ever widening eye growns dim

No intention of solving your erotic dilemma 

Though it's always there

Believe me when I say I can still smell the foul stench

That's been regurgitated to the tip of your toxic tongue

Your breath brings the illusion of truth within the pollution

One more reason to wake up washed away with the rain

I sleep in the absence of your presence

The presence of your absence

Bathing in the abundance of fallen tears

I'm leaving now so I do not rot away with you

Unexplored foundation to my structure awaits my arrival

There's only room for one so I need to get away

I must convince my shadow that I am not dead

And try to prevent the self mutilation from within

Skin burning, bones aching, muscles tearing

My spirit is outgrowing a body wasted

What's been said, what's been done

If you don't recall, why should I

Pushing me down without hesitation

You though you knew what I wanted from you

Reopening the scars on my back

To find out what I needed from you

Absolutely nothing

Dig deeper, there's no pain anymore

I can't be hurt by something I don't feel

What is it that you cannot see

What I wanted from you is what I got

Not a goddamn thing

I've been crystallized and lost in the sand

That will soon be buried in the tide

Gone and forgotten like yesterday
