Robust Conviction

You've always hated this rotten world
You laugh and say you want to destroy it all with your own two hands
Why do you laugh and show off
Those unfinished words

Carve them deep into your heart
These irreplaceable words
As your parched roots wither
You'll never be able to go back there again

Robust conviction
Fly high your robust conviction
Let it ring out to tomorrow
Robust conviction
You offered up your robust conviction
Now there's no place to run
You don't want to make one

Heretical polished hatred
With a glare that makes enemies of all the world
Your masterpiece of humiliation
An extravagant "worst ten"
As you change form, we feel your unsightly broken teeth
On our backs and we laugh, praying all we leave behind
Will reach that place

I don't understand; I don't want to understand
Twine together in the well
And just rot there

The spilled wounds hurt
The past rubbing against the present
As I peer inside, a voice rings out
Completely lacking in affectation

I moped about alone and in tears
The words of a loner
The days we laughed together
Words that wish for "eternity"

Robust conviction
Fly high your robust conviction
Let it ring out to tomorrow
Robust conviction
You offered up your robust conviction
Now there's no place to run
Keep moving forward
