DiSturbed

Robert Trujillo, Age 14
Project Chrysalis Middle School
Houston, TX, USA


Breathe the contradiction
That escape from my hollow, white lies
Lies seep from my bloodshot eyes
While you drink water of the damned
Understand the nature of the beast
Known as man
Who created hell from earth
Casting those not worthy of pain
From their dirty palm
You build your blocks of torment
From the fear and green eyes
Of those that have seen too much
And have too little
The demons within
Scratch toward the surface
Revealed in the weakest of souls
The lies we know as the truth
Bring us closer to the empire we know as heaven
And the truth we know as lies
Bring those unworthy of trust
Closer to the hell in our minds
