I'll wipe my mind of the memories I will destroy your legacy Page by page cast into the raging fires of contempt I await the day when your flesh and earth become one And I will be there, vindicated With eyes shut tight, as a hero you are venerated Standing upon this pedestal built on our backs I never saw the real you I never saw your flaws I never saw the rust and rot behind your thin veneer Lightning strikes and sets fire to your facade Your porcelain beauty cracks and breaks Your vanity bears weight no longer I cast you down Your power is denied Your soul is rusted Your guts are rotten I weep for the time I wasted Believing you were a hero Hours, days, weeks, and months Pissed away I tear down statues in your image I crush them now beneath my feet
