1.Rusty words listed out,
2.Fangs biting down in hatred.
3.An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth—
4.But I won’t counter poison with poison.
5.Why? It’s all a letdown,
6.Misguided fools at someone else’s party.
7.I click my tongue, fine with being alone,
8.Making reality known—am I bad?9.
10.Sirens chase the shadows, closing in,
11.And once I start down this path, I can’t stop.12.
13.Rampage, imagination, structure, delusion, no end,
14.Broadcast, strife—go ahead,
15.Substantial, active, bold, empty words,
16.Response? Fine—bring it on.17.
18.Even if love decays, I want to be together,
19.Even through nights where I’m called evil with a gun pointed at me.
20.Black tears and a grin from the Joker’s eyes—
21.You can tell what’s a lie, can’t you?22.
23.Beaten down to the bone, alone,
24.Buried in darkness.
25.Emotions from that day, grim scenes arranged on the board,
26.A fabricated, naked king,
27.Realize it’s the fault of the crowd, false righteousness.
28.Light words thrown around as justice?
29.Looking up at the light, hazy hopes—
30.I offer my respects to the red moon.31.
32.I can’t stop; I won’t pray to God for mercy.
33.After all, this is just the beginning, even if I’m a demon.34.
35.Rampage, imagination, structure, delusion, no end,
36.Broadcast, strife—go ahead,
37.Substantial, active, bold, empty words,
38.Response? Fine—bring it on.39.
40.Even if love decays, I want to be together,
41.Even through nights where I’m called evil with a gun pointed at me.
42.Black tears and a grin from the Joker’s eyes—
43.You can tell what’s a lie, can’t you?44.
45.Even if love decays, I want to be together,
46.Even through nights where I’m called evil with a gun pointed at me.
47.Black tears and a grin from the Joker’s eyes—
48.You can tell what’s a lie, can’t you?49.
50.I knew it was hopeless,
51.Struggling, clawing my way through,
52.Lighting up my solitude.
53.In the future, the one smiling—
54.You know who that is, right?
55.See through the lies.
