I face the choice and despite the dissenting voice I always decide the same,
I am what I am, do what I must, and always take the blame,
She stole the house, the car, my very soul,
At the center of the blast there bleeds a blackened smoking hole,
Thirty pieces I could have though I think I'll claim them not,
I'm not her shadow I'm someone else I know I'd rather rot.
So I lay soaked in red amidst the shards of my dark mirror,
Future past and never ever clearer.
Mother dear I love you, yet hate you all the same,
You taught me both could exist at once and cursed be both our names.
I am what I am, do what I must, and always take the blame,
She stole the house, the car, my very soul,
At the center of the blast there bleeds a blackened smoking hole,
Thirty pieces I could have though I think I'll claim them not,
I'm not her shadow I'm someone else I know I'd rather rot.
So I lay soaked in red amidst the shards of my dark mirror,
Future past and never ever clearer.
Mother dear I love you, yet hate you all the same,
You taught me both could exist at once and cursed be both our names.

Drunken rant in progress do disregard its the lamentation of first world problems and a house of cards that I can bitch about the loss of cream in my proverbial coffee while children elsewhere are eating mud and grass and starving to death is perhaps the crucial crux of why humanity is failing to live up to itself
