Brink - Palm Reader

We once lived as the hunted

Disguised in smiles.

A fear of anger

Those circling thoughts were spiralling right in front of me

Silencing me

They beat the lies into you

Blur the lines of truth

You found the brink.

You’re close to it

Find a voice and finally.

.be the one to tell your story

Shame will always call their name

Hollowed out to a shell.

An echo chamber of lies, taking over the mind

Searching in what was reality.

Passing comfortably around the pain

As I surround the outskirts of a mind that warped reality to survive

Flaws shine through a screen of widened eyes

Though I do not fear becoming you, because you’re so far gone

It’s true that a part of you lives in me

But that piece will only serve as a warning
