Though they're screaming my name

You come to look at me, yet you know it’s been too long

You’ve left me alone to fend for myself too many times

I won’t let you attempt to console my fears

I won’t let you wreak havoc in this soul of mine

This is mine, and only mine.

You scream for deliverance, yet sin at the devil’s door

You burn my flesh, and still want more

I won’t let you lick the salt from my skin,

I won’t let you touch where earth caves in

I am my own; this is mine.

This is my epitomy, my grand demise

I can’t be spelt out, by your greedy eyes,

I have nothing to offer, and you rip me away,

This is my last dollar, please, please don’t make me stay.
