The Evil That Will Be by Melodie Yvonne

Sometimes I just wish I could crawl in and die
Keep lookin’ around for just one reason why
But all that I see is another that kills me
And all of the evil that someday just will be

All that I see is the faces of horror
The blood and the sins that surround us like auras
And pick off our minds each one at a time
While we all put on masks and pretend that we’re fine

All that I see is the end drawing nearer
But not close enough because all of this fear hurts
All that I want is just someone to get me
Or maybe just someone that wouldn’t forget me

Sometimes I just wish I could crawl in and die
Keep lookin’ around for just one reason why
But all that I see is another that kills me
And all of the evil that someday just will be
