FACELESS
I once was a little boy
So filled with joy
But evil into my life did come
From which I cannot run
I have to
hide my demons inside
Where they will always reside
Now I must adorn a mask
This is no easy task
Since then I have been to many
places
And I have worn many faces
Every new identity
Brings me some serenity
I try to run from the past
But I do not know who I was last
I look at myself in the mirror
But I am none the clearer
I am a wolf pretending to be a
sheep
And now I cannot fall asleep
I kill and I maim
But I do not remember my name
I hide in the black
And wait to attack
Then I disappear into the mist
As if I didn't exist
Violence brings me peace
But my hunger will never cease
Now my demons wear my face
As I hide in their place
I am entrapped
As my life is being sapped
Here I meet my end
My sins unable to mend
I do not know that little boy
But I do envy all his joy
