Apathy Reigns Supreme 2022

from DOK V: Thrillingly Dead by Decimate Our Kind

/

lyrics

Notice not the darkness in
Where my soul will kill
The joy you want me to feel
Sleeping within a spiked room
Ready to stab hearts
At those who condemn a frown
Let my indifference roam free
For my apathy
Reigns supreme in my kingdom
I, the ruler of my ways
Will cast you aside
At the sounds of your softness

You won't see me when I kill
Gone is the feeling or sense
That I care or wish to be
Within this here world
The location matters not
Where I can operate my
Forces to destroy the tears
Fallen in safety

You won't cease, instead you'll die
Succumb to my blade
Not of stone but of my words
You can't handle harshness when
Your skin's made of wool
Easily cut through to scrape
Within your closed-minded self
Functions not a mind
That's willing to accept this
Difference that we've seen so far
Divine and human
Good or bad, it's here to stay

Will you leave me be
When I ask for the
Simple privilege to
Exist holding arms
With a curse in hand
To shield fellow gone
