Feeling paralyzed, crossed by waves of radiation Malevolent roots invading the structure Corrupted DNA Dark essence of the centuries running through contaminated grounds Threatening trees, carapace of bones, sharp and poisoned Digging the surface The mud filling the wounds Merciless nature Your treachery hidden behind a friendly face Mutating, my skull wide open to the world, defenseless Annoying sounds never stop, they consume my nerves I broke them a thousand times, Cracked the ruins of my nails Your yellow horns appear, greedily gnawing my feet Feeding my genetic curse Defying my bodily integrity Like the claws of the sleeping beast inside your trunk You crack the ruins of my extremities Turn the scared child into a monster Cracked the ruins of my nails Enslaved to your will, in this new-born corrupted form A tortured silhouette A thick and cracked bark Covering the fake scars inherited from a manipulated genealogy Where lies become a legitimate truth Where “who I am” can finally be buried To endure the simple fact of being alive
