Got a gun, got a knife

It's time for an alley fight

There's a war in my mind

Broken glass in my eyes

Lacerations litter my hide

Bones fragmented, pulverized

Blacktop runs red, beg for your life

Feral. Urban. Nightmare

Synthetic opioid-laced thousand yard stare

Grinding black teeth in despair, Depravity beyond compare

Corrosion of my soul, rotten beyond repair

Don't care if I live or die, plunge your thumbs into my eyes

Push until your hands and the ground collide

Bite off my skin in a fevered rage

Junkyard dog in heat, out of my cage

Hatred in my veins, impale my fucking brain

Diaphoretic machine of pain

Tent cities littered with remains

Scattered lives, now just a stain

No coroner. No regard for your worth

Shit and piss caked unmarked grave

Languid and grey, circling the drain

Ashen hell, drowning in disdain

Embrace the apathy. Darkened shroud, cover me

Shut my eyes and walk away
