In my own private hell...(PA).

I've lost myself somewhere,
somewhere between the here and there.
I've tried to enslave,
enslave the trueness of me, behave.
I've tried to bow down to the norm,
norm of society, righteous and warm.
I've taken the whole of me,
me that screams to be free.
I've hidden my true epitomy.
Epitomy...how many times have I tried to be accepted by your society?

Once again I stand naked and tall.
Tall and screaming to hell with pretending at all.
Once again I face the world before me.
Me, naked, screaming, dripping blasphemy.
Me, dark, eccentric, and forever free.
Once again I have found myself deep in there,
somewhere between the bleeding of the here
and the needing of the darkness there.
