Understanding?

What do you care?
You say you understand
You claim to have been there

There where I am now
Beneath my darkness
And threatening clouds.

You say
you say
You know what its like to be me

But do you
But do you
Walk within a nightmare that you cannot see?

Do you awake paralyzed by the demons
You’ve created
Powerless
Terrified
Evil satiated.

Can you count the thousand scars
You’ve lain across your
Skin’s terrain

Do you find release in bleeding pain
..as you suck the disease out of your flesh and back into your body..

It’s a neverending battle in which
Death has already won
It’s a neverending battle
And I'm the grim reaper’s pawn

This life is not mine for living
But a life he’s existing through

I’d like to see you prove
You’ve suffered the same fate as me

....Seeing as how you’re at a loss for words I doubt your notoriety.
