Shius - I Dream of Violence

I dream of fratricide
In a place where I'm free, let the monsters hide
What the violence speaks to me

Mental instability, coping within a fantasy
All I ever sought to destroy, was what I let it be
In the place of guidance and law, I was defiantly
Wishing for a death of a God that had created me

I dream of violence behind these walls
(It was just a mistake)
Bones cracking, screaming within these halls
(All the scars that remain)
I would never hurt you, like you did me
I don't want to break you, like I have been
I dream of violence behind these walls

In a past long forgotten, like the paths left untrodden
You took the burden of the wrath you felt on objects like me
Feigning un-emotion, apathetic of the problem
All I was to you was like a plate you shattered on the ground
That's all I've ever been, just a cog in the system
Part of something generational that I "don't understand"
Kill the child in me, kill all I could ever be
I will have my revenge when I have cried myself to sleep
I will have my revenge, when I finally find peace

I dream of violence behind these walls
(You had misbehaved)
Bones cracking, screaming within these halls
(Never asked to be made)
I would never hurt you, like you did me
I don't want to break you, like I have been
I dream of violence behind these walls

In the end, all I have to say
(I won't be like you, I won't be like)
When you're dead, what is left for you?
(You said God's your judge, you said God's your judge)
All the times that you hurt me, I did not fight
All the scars that you gave me, I will not hide
I dream of violence, but I won't die

Break the chain I was forged in, break away from the hate
Second chances are rare, but I will change my fate
If I need medication, if this means I am insane
I will gladly be confined so I could start again
I'm already dead, I live on borrowed time
I chant in bitterness the life I don't want them to suffer
I am my father's daughter, but I refuse to be him
Dreams of violence won't kill who I have chosen to be

I dream of violence behind these walls
(It was just a mistake)
Bones cracking, screaming within these halls
(All the scars that remain)
I would never hurt you, like you did me
I don't want to break you, like I have been
I dream of violence behind these walls
