Empty

by chris johnson   Nov 6, 2007


I'm untied
From chains
that held me still
so long I've vied
for freedom
it makes me ill

Resurrected
from death
i become reborn
now infected
and those lost
I'll never mourn

No emotion
To those
for which i used to care
no more devotion
but to you
i give a little prayer

shield your heart
keep it hidden
from the world to see
and if your smart
you'll never
have to be like me

feel no pain
no hurt, no loss
or agony
its a lot to gain
or is it worth
losing your humanity

a walking plague
with senses
void of everything
with all things vague
this is what a broken
heart can bring

heed my prayer
or suffer
as i have for so long
do as you dare
but make sure you know
whats right and wrong
