Knife After Death

Did I request thee, maker, From my clay to mold me man? Did I solicit thee from darkness To… promote me? I, the miserable and the abandoned Am an abortion to be spurned at And kicked and trampled on Have I not suffered enough to prevent you From adding more? I was benevolent and good. Misery made me a fiend I am your creature I ought to be Adam But rather the fallen (angel) Innocent but forsaken Knife after death Breath after life I was wretched, helpless, abhorred and alone. I was benevolent and good Misery made me a fiend There was none among the myriads of men who existed Who would pity or assist me And should I feel kindness towards my enemies? No: from that moment I declared Everlasting war against the species And, more than all, against him Who had formed me, and sent me forth this Insupportable misery and ran away in fear, fear of his discovery I am the creature the monster is he I am the creature the monster is he I am the creature the monster is he I am the creature the monster is me

Hey kid, that’s a cool shirt you got there, Can you name any songs? It strikes a nerve, when I see it unfold Cultivation of the world absurd Fall to pieces and release a turd Have another - I’m on my third Tide pod suicide TikTok genocide Only fans monetized Holy water homocide I’m on X subscribe YouTube deep dive Hollywood baptized Oat milk latte super sized This is beneath me You can’t completely Seem to delete me Or do it discreetly There is no alibi For you to crucify Some tend to glorify I just look horrified It strums a chord as the pains ignored Death romances on T-shirt stances Consequences of least resistance In case you missed it - I’m for your benefit This isn’t what he died for This isn’t what she lied for This isn’t how we move on This is where it goes wrong There’s Chlorine in the gene pool

Black Parade 02:54
Even when I saw my first one Didn’t know what it could even be Intimidated by the perception Of all the pain it could cause me I didn’t know my evolution Was waiting for me in a pit Circling like animations Of all the moves that I could hit Dancing to the heavy rhythm And bouncing off my fellow man I do believe I found a Heaven The Black Parade forever fan Down on the floor World to explore Find your calling Up from fallen Push through center Now or never Into darkness Out comes all this Skip to the beat the heart repeats Swing into me and I’ll receive Toughen the skin deep from within I was relieved; I was conceived In this circle scene, In the circle seen This black parade is a serenade To inner me - My destiny Can’t you see what it’s done to me Circle shaped Black Parade

A Cheap Move 04:03
You got me back against the wall With only one trick up your sleeve Hey you, what's your disease? Is this your best shot taken at me? You press buttons, throw punches and flee All I see, is a pathetic tease There’s no method or reason Your moves repeatedly cheapened I suppose I’m far from believing That your know what you’re doing this evening Knocked down faded and bleeding Eyes bulged out poking and peaking You clown, your character’s weeping I know your life has no meaning I’m not just a bump on your path I’m not just a bug you can smash I’m not a foe that will last I'm not a blast from your past Know that this isn’t me No that this is in me This is the feeling you get When all your favors are spent And all of the labels are wet Now you’re your saviors regret Is that all that you’ve got for me I think you’re just stuck on repeat You missed the point and the conceit All you do is beat your meat Your cheap move can’t stop you from break down

B.R.D 03:27
Who do you think is running this show anymore? Who do we know with no self control and no morals? In this stream of profanity misleadings Misogyny as a company creed You deny it The Big Red Drum is pounding Blowing out my inner ear Can you imagine another? I swear I’d like to disappear Before you count me as absent Make sure you let the people hear The Big Red Drum is pounding Blowing out my inner ear It's the sound of disaster Wrapped around chaotic fear This whole mess brings laughter Coming from the rearview mirror Oh, no The big red drums are coming The big red drums are here Oh, no

Rise above ruin The light scrapes over the skies again A new foundation for observation This effortless reflective mess The ice trays are melting and flooding the floor As we sift through the ashes of all we had stored Now this is the part that you seem to ignore The world is on fire but I’m just a liar Rise above ruin If you stand up they will be fucked Don’t bother being a friend You can make them bow when broken Rise above ruin Be worth more than they can trade you in for This can help get your foot in The rest you do because you can - Rise What if it’s not that easy? It’s not supposed to be! What if I get rejected? It’s not supposed to be! What if I can’t stand it? It’s not supposed to be! Can we save the planet? We’re not supposed to be! I won’t sit here simmering I will climb up a higher peak This is something we can beat Rise above it. Rinse repeat Rise. Rise. Rise. Rise.

Here we go again You like to spit me out your mouth Nothing to gain and nothing to lose You like to twist my words and shout Nothing I said gets through to you You missed what this is all about Nothing you do is what I told you You’re keen on keeping others out How would you like it done to you? There’s no one else that you can blame Fabricate a war in my name Crucified for ways we’re not the same Fabricate a war in my name I’m dragging your cross now You like to point your twisted finger Nothing you say holds any truth You like to stew and let it linger Nothing we do gets through to you You kissed reality goodbye Every view can be misused Sometimes it makes me want to cry Nothing I do can make it through There’s no one else that you can blame Fabricate a war in my name Crucified for ways we’re not the same Fabricate a war in my name I’m dragging your cross now
