Your pedestal The shrine where you would be waiting Silently tucked away Just as if you're sleeping Unaware of my undying Urge to seek retribution Every last memory project in before me Wipe the sand from my eyes I began to weep The shrine so divine Blessed be the chance to take another's life Lifting the relic with my accursed hands With the masks visions presented before me I see my chance finally I can only feel this hatred Build deeper for my own face Envisioning like suicide The timeline that said to replace The psychotic thoughts melt into one Action that can't be undone And I feel my heart beat faster I see that one of us fades Torn through the time The chance has been granted To return my life from yours As if I could still feel you breathing And feel you beneath Patiently waiting as I stalk my prey Leading up to your end of days Just so I become you So I become you Behind the mask you'll see I'm not so much different from you Wading in horror of every one of my failures And I contort time to the wretchedness it claims to be Behind the mask you'll see Jaded eyes with a vengeful smile Pinning you down to force my thumbs Deeper into your skull Until your life is mine Utter The last words While mocking my tongue Replaced The time has come For the bell has been rung Feel my presence Strip through your skin And mend from within Observation of self sickness With no chance or contingence Offered by the graceful wraith Either way I become you
