-I'll Burden You People- by Keaton Foster Sit there Queer Weird Finger in jest Confess To the confessor All that you admit I won't judge I won't budge I'll stand tall Above it all In I'll take All that you say Nothing Will I waste Your wicked words Both a god And a sword Into my heart Into my head Leaving me Reeling Still feeling What did I do I don't know Not supposed to Suffering My curse not yours Just do your part I'll be fine Whatever The hell that is I will seek my own god I'll ask him to be kind As he obliterates All that I hold true It's just our game Give and take Live and waste I am a mistake More than you More than most He has always Without question Had it in for me I don't mind What difference Would it make If I somehow did His power Unruly His wisdom Such cruelty Sure in this life I'll burden you people I'll tell you things Things that you Don't want to hear Don't want to know I'll show you the light Expose you to darkness Make you cry As part of you dies I'll bring you close Right to the edge Such a place is home Such an idea My skin and bones You'll suffer Just as I have But unlike me Your suffering will cease You plight will never be You will make it just fine Heck even survive But in the end not I I won't survive I won't endure When I'm done I'll be no more Just as in life Will remain in death I'll burden you people As I was meant to God selected me Quite arbitrarily He knew what he was doing And still does I'm just here Wondering what's near What's close to me As I risk it all to flee What there is no escaping Maybe in time You'll get it Maybe some of me Will cross over And become Something of you I won't mind How could I ever...
