Slither - Hand Of Mercy

Sent back to square one

I should have seen what’s next

I’d rather the reaper instead

That’s what said it best

Shattered bones from countless falls is something I regret

I’ve faced the gallows more than once

With your noose around my neck

Take four, I told you so

Can’t leave well enough alone

Whispers while distant

Reaffirm nights without rest

That forked tongue still flicking at my ear

Keep warm in your selfishness

Charlatan

Needy and fed with tangible expressions

Confirming all of what I know

Still can’t leave well enough alone

Eyes wide from sidelines

But still blind from old times

Keep suffering from these constant falls

Only wanting to be whole

You’re a fool, you’re rushing in

The opposite for what you’re yearning

You need to burn old leaves

To get the new ones turning

Outsider intervention

Love loss

The sinking feelings all that’s left

No more force fed insincerity

Die cold in your selfishness

I hate myself

I should have just left this dead

Transformation disguised

Marred by all of the bullshit you said
