I was told once
that old spiders,
before they die,
get so full of venom,
they lose their minds.
Instinct slowly overrides
and they start looking
for something to bite.
Big, mean, and aggressive.
So, I guess my question is,
when are you gonna
come down off your web
and start trying
to inject the venom in?
See you’ve been waiting
your whole life,
playing nice,
but now it’s almost over,
you’re out of time.
Might as well die
trying to be a legend.
Don’t give a fuck
if anyone is offended.
Discard the lessons
and just
bite down.
Let all that poison out.
You’ll feel
so much better,
now that you’ve shown them
how you’re made.
Reject your better self.
You know it all comes down
to how you’re remembered,
or if you’re remembered at all.
It seems to be so right,
with that venom in your mind,
that you are being kind
by letting it all out.
I was told once,
that old spiders don’t hunt,
they go insane
with all the venom
built up in their blood.
Throw off survival, now.
They know they’re going out
and they’ll bite anything
that happens by their mouths.
So I guess,
my only question
for you is;
when are you
gonna come down
off your web
and try
to inject the venom in?
