Black-Striped Prism – Abuse Lyrics
Artist: Black-Striped Prism
Song: Abuse
Reflect in this perception: Years in a dreadful predicament
Where wrongs aren’t forgotten or forgiven
A monumental amount of damage is habitually inflicted
Blamed during disputes / The offender never looks within
At moments they’re reassuring / Other times derogatory
Sometimes generous, but at the cost of being controlling
Language is vulgar / Mentality atrocious
My spirit corrodes as they grow more ferocious
I attempt to feel serene, but am never secure
Their threats are scathing / How many can I endure
Basic requests denied / Necessities banned
Under arrest for the crime of being human
Trying to gratify forces the truth into hiding
Fear befriends and persuades me to start lying
The stronger their hold, the weaker my devotion
I am trapped in this cold, unstable situation
Abuse is not limited to what you can visibly view
Abuse comes in various forms that interchangeably accrue
Abuse is traumatizing and extremely difficult to undo
Abuse attacks viciously / Unconcerned about who
Abuse
Immerse in this imagery: A victim robbed and beaten
Violated to the depths of their core / Consent not given
Bruises left permanently / Cuts throughout / Some bleeding
A broken figure questioning what they could have done differently
Imbedded are past horrors replaying nonstop
Lost in a mind labyrinth / The only exit is locked
Dark corridors await at the end of every hall
The assailants’ faces are displayed across the walls
Paralysis overtakes me from the cold glares
Efforts at alternate escapes invite despair
Questions arise / Is it my fault / In my head
Did I incite the assaults / Incur this dread
There’s distorted delight in the freedom of absence
Chains bind tightly from a residual presence
Abuse is not limited to what you can visibly view
Abuse comes in various forms that interchangeably accrue
Abuse is traumatizing and extremely difficult to undo
Abuse attacks viciously / Unconcerned about who
Abuse
Exposure to toxicity creates mental atrophy
Existence is a prison in this endless entropy
Abuse is not limited to what you can visibly view
Abuse comes in various forms that interchangeably accrue
Abuse is traumatizing and extremely difficult to undo
Abuse attacks viciously / Unconcerned about who
Abuse
