We Are Monsters

A heart can still bleed once it's stopped beating
And a soul can leave the body once one still breathes
I can cross over the bar
Better to be forgotten than remembered
The hollow wind to blow the name of the sad life of one
To carry the burden of the responsibility
It's exhausting
To carry like a sack over the hunched backs of us
Keep the name under the sand
And free those from it
Far from humanity is where it follows
Keep it safe and sound to your own
Bury it among your other precious belongings
For other than the name we treasure only one thing
However one cannot keep it forever
The beast inside creates the sanity to go wild
One can lose to their own epic battle of the mind
Feel the danger we cause and scare them
To be a murderer
To be a thief
To be a monster
Rest the bones within the earth and refuse the keep sake of the name
We all change for either better or worse
Under the mighty rock will we remain and keep this to us
Soon the world will forget the monsters we are, but will soon create a new epidemic of such creatures
