“Believer”

[velvet trail]

Hey Lord, see me
Shooting across the sky
like a meteor?

I wanna devote my life
To a higher
To a higher power
To something
To something bigger

The hottest being alive
Which exudes the magnitude
Of a prophesied heroine
Swirling deep inside like heroin
Go ahead and shoot the arrow in
The arrow of a believer
The poison of a believer
If godlessness means
Starvation of love in simpler terms
Then cast me down

From the highest mountaintop
And gag me with my own golden cord
That they call my soul
Cast me down
Cast me down
Cast me-

I wanna devote my life
To a higher
To a higher power
To something
To something bigger

The venomous beast of a believer
The horrific fate of a needer
I need her
I need you
Lord, I need to

If it’s carved into my gravestone
That angels will sing
As I descend into an abyss
A spreading, rotting mist
Trapped inside of a ring
That angels will fray
That angels will pray
But if godlessness means
Starvation of love in simpler terms
Then cast me down

Cast me down
Cast the iron frown
Cast me down
Cast me-

I wanna devote all of my life
To a higher power
To something bigger

I need her
I need you
Lord, I need to

But it’s impossible

It’s impossible

It’s impossible.

And then I thought,
That’s exactly what I’ve been
for the entirety of life
I’ve been Impossible.

I mean, it's a poem; or a modern metal song with three preludes, two choruses, two juicy verses and a staccato finish

Feel the same hhaha. Do we need to wait for a new rock band?

[silk jay]

The third stanza definitely gives hair metal vibes lol. Great poem in all seriousness tho
