Can You See Me Now?

Can You See Me Now? - Beardfish

Setting out with a scythe

To calm their hybris

All their stupid hopes will wither

I shall wake them from this dream

Oh their murmuring

Tongues I will slither

And the world shall

Tremble at my feet

Oh their laughter

As my nervous grin

Was smacked from face

I thought that I deserved it

The mirror had already told me

How deserving I was

Of abuse to body and mind

And so with time grew hate

Where love once resided

Years pass but a change

Won't surely come

You know that those

Who don't deserve it

They gnaw and they claw

Their way while always licking upwards

And furiously kicking down

Down down down

So what is status

It's a value standing firm

But I will be the hand of those

Whose faces you stepped upon

I am plotting with every breath

I take life is at stake

And as your children shape

Themselves in your image

When they grow up

To be just like you

And when they push

The kid with the glasses

Face first in a puddle of mud

Will you secretly smile

And think that's my boy

One day you won't be so lucky

My only fear is to go by unnoticed

I demand you to see me this time

Therefore I long to be apprehended

And watch you closely as

You learn it was always I
