You are not alone. This is for the coward who dined on my flesh as a child. Time/'/s up! [bodytext] => I came here equipped
The tables have flipped
No longer young and foolish
Shirking intentions ghoulish
Smirking at apathy bred,
This beast you have fed,
Bullseye to the head,
Sowing my tears
To harvest your fears
Of being exposed
Your future foreclosed
I lie in wait,
To seal your fate,
Vengeance by trait,
Memories stirred awake
Hefty price for your mistake
Stiff penalty for your crime
You cut me down in my prime
These attacks won/'/t hold me back,
They feed me like a tasty snack,
Your trail of blood I will track,
Your toy is now fully grown
My forgiveness out on loan
Smile big and wave to the sniper-
It/'/s time you pay the Piper.

I came here equipped
The tables have flipped
No longer young and foolish
Shirking intentions ghoulish
Smirking at apathy bred,
This beast you have fed,
Bullseye to the head,
Sowing my tears
To harvest your fears
Of being exposed
Your future foreclosed
I lie in wait,
To seal your fate,
Vengeance by trait,
Memories stirred awake
Hefty price for your mistake
Stiff penalty for your crime
You cut me down in my prime
These attacks won/'/t hold me back,
They feed me like a tasty snack,
Your trail of blood I will track,
Your toy is now fully grown
My forgiveness out on loan
Smile big and wave to the sniper-
It/'/s time you pay the Piper.
