Sounds like something from the Nu-Metal Band Creator.
creator ? never heard of them
or are you relating to THE German Thrash band Kreator ? whom they’re so awesome
My opinion:
The Verses and the chorus seem sincere, and I understand the emotion they are conveying. But verse 2 seems fabricated in context, as if artificially cynical, probably because the lyrical I first feels like a victim and ignored in the verse 1 and the chorus, and yet wants to destroy the exchange of emotion with the addressee in verse 2.
“Verse2”
give me your feelings
so I can step on them
I’ll give you my heart
so you can break it
This is by itself very interesting poetry. But I am confused as to what the lyrical I really wants. That is why verse 2 stands out and seems a bit hypocritical, almost artificially sinister, like a terrifying gothic castle on a blooming meadow on a beautiful summer day, the longing for emotion being the summer day and the castle being the cynicism.
The frequent use of “more” [e.g. ‘anymore’, ‘no more’] seemed repetitve at first but creates a very interesting effect. On the one hand the lyrical I is asking for the suffering to end, but the frequent use of the word ‘more’ that is very present when you read the poem aloud, contradicts this on the audible level.
Try changing verse 2 into a metaphor, e.g. to how everyone is sucking out positive emotions out of the lyrical I like a giant black hole of douchbaggery and self-loathing. Or change everything except verse 2 to, as has been proposed, how the lyrical I is going to kick the ass of the abusers.
Keep it up!
I bow to your lyrical awesomeness.
