Evil or Live

In my head, I find tranquility

Within a world of death and depression

I smile to the best of my ability

In my head, I find wickedness

Amongst the joyful crowd

I feel a sense of restlessness

I tell them a story overnight

To help them sleep through pain

And to help their futures be bright

I don't think for me

What I want is what they want

My desires are overrun just for thee

I sin for lust

The thought of love is compelling

Though my methods are not just

In other words, with my fragility

I lose all sense of civility

I will be burned at the stake for my sins

But I smile to the best of my ability

I am 21 years or older.
