Brother - The Gloom In The Corner

«He belongs to me forever

He gave in, so he’s mine for the taking

Nothing will bring him back»

Said the voice coming from my brother

Left broken and bleeding

A hollow shell with a monster that can’t stop feeding

The two sit alone in an empty room

No words are spoken

But I can see the madness begin to bloom

He’s a fucking mess howling at the moon

«Little bitch boy has tried committing too many times.

Ask the doc to swap the

codeine with a healthy dose of cyanide.

I’m the fucker that turned his

nightmares into wet dreams.

Don’t sit back and watch him bleed, put the barrel

between his fucking teeth»

I can see the darkness take hold

I can see he’s lost control

So I take a step back and let it settle in

My condition feels the walls start to close in

He speaks in tongues that bring the aroma of death himself

Scratch marks on the wall to just keep count just how many he’s killed

Why can’t he die?

«Oh believe me brother I’ve fucking tried

If I succeeded they would still be alive

But I can’t control myself now you’re marked as a target.»

Fuck it, I refuse

To let him win

(I can’t lose another)

So I let the serpents eat my skin

Brother of mine, brother of mine

Give him back to me

Release him of your hold

Release him of your hold

So save me 'cause there’s no turning back from here

There’s no turning back from here

I feel like I’ve already lost the last thing I held dear

I collapse to the ground to find solace in the pavement

But I knew I’d find nothing as pure as what your love meant

Together your love was fused as one

I promise to fix you if it means I come undone

(Guess you think I’m a loser, huh?

All slithers of hope washed away in the pouring rain

I’m worthless and you knew that

Jay is fucking dead.

Gloom forever.)

«I have the devil trying to drag me to hell

And you lecture me on morality?

Let him, the Hole’s better than here

I’ll show him he should fucking fear me

You’re no brother of mine.

Put the barrel between my fucking teeth and pull the

fucking trigger."

So let the darkness take hold

So let the darkness take hold

If she dies, he dies, I die, we die

If she dies, he dies, I die, we die

We’re eaten alive by the mouth of God

Only the grittiest will survive
