his echo

his echoing words

Obviously you liked it

So take it

His argument is the same

My body relaxed

So I can place no blame

No matter how I detest

His point is the same

Your body liked it

His endless game

A cat toying with a mouse

Before he kills his prey

You know what you came here for

Echoes in my brain

The record keeps playing

Stirring blood in my veines

Boiling over in anguish

Disrupting any words to say

Everythought I defeat in my own mind

Before my lips can claim

Frozen in my own footprint

Loss of signal to my brain

I cant stop the thoughts

Cycling over and over again

This is not what I wanted how I wanted

Make it make sense again

He carries his motto

Stitched in false bravado

Excuse to take what he wants

He deceives to manipulate
