I never asked for this.

I never asked to be his dream, his nightmare, his butterfly, his doom.

I never asked to be born, and I didn’t want it.

Couldn't I have been something else, something with a meaning besides what he gives me?

Sometimes I think I remember a crowd of hungry eyes watching me.

Sometimes I think I remember the little pain of the tattoo needle.

And I know I remember the coldness of the gun in my hand, but it’s gone now and it’s too late for that.

And the other one follows me with a knife, shuffling, indescribable.

And which one will give me the end I deserve?

I tell you now, I think I hate destiny.
