Bleed

Meshuggah

4

Beams of fire sweep through my head

Thrusts of pain increasingly engaged

Sensory receptors succumbI am no one now, only agony

My crimson liquid so frantically spilled

The ruby fluid of life unleashed

Ripples ascend to the surface of my eyes

Their red pens drawing at random, at will

A myriad pains begotten in their wake

The bastard spawn of a mutinous self

The regurgitation of my micro nemesis

Salivating red at the prospect of my ruin, my doom

Malfunction - the means for its ascent

Bloodletting - the stringent voice to beckon my soul

So futile, any resisting tension

As death-induced mechanics propel its growth

The implement, the device of my extinction

The terminating clockwork of my gleeful bane

The definitive scourge of its mockery

The end-art instruments lethality attained

Heed - it commands, heed my will

Bleed - it says, bleed you will

Falling into the clarity of undoing

Scornful gods haggle for my soul

Mind′s eye flickers and vascillates as I let go

Taunting whispers accompany my deletion

A sneering grin, the voice of my reaper

Chanting softly the song of depletion
