We are the truth of what we all thought was a lie
We never crossed the line from reality
But now that we have seen with our eyes
It is hard to ignore, ignore the truth.
It is hard to forget what was right in front of me
nothing but a double-walker, an omen of death
The blood will drip from the forgotten corpses
For evil itself has replaced the beings they once were
It’s a double dose of disaster and we’ve already OD’d
I suppose I never considered my death to be told through a mirror
Or a piece of broken fucking glass
Look at yourself in the eyes
And open up your own cursed world
From another dimension
The harbinger of misfortune is seen
With black soulless eyes
like that of a predator
tattered beings live among us forever
I feel cold
The feeling of death is upon me
I am taken over. I am taken over
All will to live is lost I am no longer what I thought I was
I pray mercy for those loved from this ghostly counter-part
For I am replaced taken over
