Biography

I want to be part of something incredible. Anyway I can make a difference will bring me the most happiness.

Samples

Gossip I infect the mouths of those that speak And on the insecure minds that need a release I poison the heart with a conversational art And puncture the skin like a sharpened dart I seep through the blood like an ink spill on paper And the most beautiful girl, I'll entice you to hate her Force you to avoid doing anyone favors Perpetually send you into erratic behavior I'm a thief who steals the truth from your words So you polish the fictitious and they misjudge your worth I am the terror that hides in your spine Between all the vertebrae that are aligned And when the time is right I snap the bones in your back I can make the most untouchable person crack There isn't a human alive that can resist my allure I'm an addiction that stems from the worst kind of torture A malignant disease that metastasizes and breeds I open your mouth and sharpen your teeth I'll transform the most genuine smile into a sneer And manifest optimism into an irrational fear You'll be consumed with envy and devoured by greed For what I am you see, is gossip indeed

I really like 'Gossip' also, Chloe. Well done. The comparisons, one after the other, make a strong statement about this familiar subject.

I'm a thief who steals the truth from your words
