Be Warned, This is Seriously Grim Reading
 
 
Often, I wear grim expressions
Fond of those dim reflections
Mirrored in other's eyes
A man hiding behind lies
 
Grim like frostbite turned black
And my serial number faded back
Ink failing in the grinding of life
I can trace those numbers with a knife
Bring forth blood like ice
What is living without a little sacrifice
 
I respond to a fucked-up world
My grim stature reflective of an underworld
Where screaming in my skull says kindly
‘There is no more! The sky is about to unfurl
And death is to be dealt out blindly'
 
So, I hide from the deadly sky up high
And those of whom unsightly worship the sky
And all the meteors that come crashing down
Around my untimely mental breakdown
 
At the world I stare a grim dance
Fooling them into thinking I am in a trance
But I am not
I just want you to fuck off.
