Our violent obbscenities are covered with @'s and !'s

"I wanted to breathe smoke. I wanted to burn the Lourve. I'd do the Elgin Marbles with a sledge-hammer and wipe my ass with the Mona Lisa. This is my world, now" (Chuck Palahniuck, Fight Club)

Bloody palms and cigarette buds
Quarantine and Lollipops
Is this your idea of a good time?

Take all these toxicities
and snort them with your friends
The fun never fucking ends

And im sick of rhyming for your sheer entertainment
Trying to make manic depression crack a smile.
How witty is he?
He makes hand grenades funny
Shit

My boyish charm was lost in a call to arms
A firefight that lasted all night
They made me bleed for their beliefs
A martyr in camouflage

And I'll march with this dance of the dead
Wishing for something better until eventually
The blood in my vains go from blue to red

But it dosent matter because im making the world miserable
One victim at a time whether its limb by limb
or line by line

In search of words
Or a downfall that doesent involve my curse
But these marks for every sin tell me I'll never win

Swollen knuckles and conspiericies
Broken promises and broken wings
Failed thoughts and dead theories
These are a few of my favorite things
