But what defines character?
If addiction captures the fool
Then how would it carve?
Another blade to go to waste
In the days of ghostly beige
And it gradually destroys its base
With a want, a need, a cage
Has that knife worn so thin?
That it's tough to cut
What you was about to begin
And you say it was a knot
How many times have you wounded yourself?
The evidence is clearly on your face
How is it to indulge what you dealt?
When the knife's health is becoming dull
A tool that was once a mind
Can not finish its last cuts
Now that the blade is grime
But it was the owner tending to addict
The substance to blind their working eyes
And it's a curve that they can't carve to hide

Carve Alone

Minds function is a cutting tool

Has that knife worn so thin?

How many times have you wounded yourself?

When the knife's health is becoming dull
A tool that was once a mind

But it was the owner tending to addict
The substance to blind their working eyes
And it's a curve that they can't carve to hide
