Undone

That's really me-1996

My image, your fix

Desire reciprocal

Consumed by your tricks


Gotta find fault

Why it isn’t meant to be

You’re getting a little

Too close to me


Tell me your secrets

Mine don’t come for free

Only find refuge

When you leave me be


Breath in every word

You say page by page

To everyone you know

Day after day


Doesn’t mean admiration

Is coming your way

My actions will never

Match what I say


Crucify you

For the sins I commit

Convincing you and myself

We aren’t a good fit


Aggressively deny you

Of feeling and thoughts

Passively shun you

Feel worthless you ought


Deliver you evil

My last sleight of hand

Bent on destruction

Bed of fire to land


Do away with you

Yet tenaciously follow 

A tribute of hatred

One more lie - swallow
