Failed

Face to face

with the lone individual who tried to erase me -

excuses came, deals were made,

but I'll never cower down,

bow down, or fall down.

The last one tried it.

The last one failed.

I feel it deep down, like a pit in my gut

where the pride used to hide., and its gone now but so what?

I've faced the past and I proved I can last to the end -

but what happened to my friends?

Like a tiptoeing burglar,

they were off in the night

without a fucking regard for what's wrong or right.

They thought I'd disappear, they hoped I'd go away,

but I knew in time that I'd coral my prey.

The last one tried it.

The last one failed.

Now I'm hunting you mixed-up son-of-a-bitchs

went down the wrong path.

Like a robin, now I walk and stalk without a pack.

I try to resist, but my fucking instincts won't be supressed.

I have a tolerance for silver, but not disrespect.

You've caused a change in my outlook on all humankind:

they're self-obsessed, they've lost my trust,

they're much too weak-of-mind.

No longer will I waste my time hoping for what i know is not:

they're just a battle-scar from the wars I've faught.

The last one tried.

The last one tried it.

The last one tried.

Now you've tried it, and you failed.
