What it feels like to be the bad guy
The truth is less glamorous than its reputation
Pride is replaced with remorse, never for what I’ve put others through, but for my own integrity sacrificed
It’s the emotional demeanor of a flat hand, palming at a solid stone floor
Knowing that the end of this tunnel wont leave you where you want to be but leading you down it in disregard
It’s guilt for a lack of guilt
What it feels like to be a bad guy
Like a book, dropped flatly on a marble counter top. I lay down, and I close my eyes, content.
