False prophet
False martyr
Words fall into the void
Goth kids stare at the walls
While the wannabes thrive at the malls

One is alive
Another is merely living
To give to you
Is to give to me

Collect your belongings
Listen to the salt in your sea
They come to find
You lying in the bathroom stall
A Somber scene
Sudden vacant
Half moon line

Talking heads
Beg for more

The Mongrel cat came home, Holding half a head proceeded to show it off to all his new found friends

I'm not sure if I'm understanding this one.
To me, martyrs and prophets are mostly delusional. As for Goth wannabes, I've never had any problems with them because its generally more of a 'style' than a serious mindset. LOL, perhaps, I need to re-read this one?
