Allusions

Allusion is a figure of speech, in which an object or circumstance from an unrelated context is referred to covertly or indirectly. It is left to the audience to make a direct connection. Where the connection is directly and explicitly stated (as opposed to indirectly implied) by the author, it is instead usually termed a reference. In the arts, a literary allusion puts the alluded text in a new context under which it assumes new meanings and denotations. It is not possible to predetermine the nature of all the new meanings and inter-textual patterns that an allusion will generate.

Six feet doesn't always mean "Rest In Peace"

I'd take a match to your virulent words
Just to watch your incendiary lies
Erupt and consume your tragic life

I'd place the gun against your head 
Just to watch your self righteousness 
Violently come to an end

End of the pain
End of these lies
End to this nightmare you call your life

As light fades to impending evanescence 
Bittersweet memories exacerbate your presence
Your eidolic takes a hold of my heart
And with a sadistic smile, you rip me apart

Six feet won't keep you from me
Six feet won't put your mind at ease
Six feet won't keep me asleep 
Six feet doesn't always mean

Rest
In
Peace 

If ever I feel I've been woken from this
You inevitably regain your ground
And I find myself ensnared in the cogs of this perfect machine once again 
Each time I lay to rest

As light fades to impending evanescence 
Bittersweet memories exacerbate your presence
Your eidolic takes a hold of my heart
And with a sadistic smile, you rip me apart
When I awake I no longer see your face
Haunted by your memories I fall to my knees
For I'll always know in a nightmares embrace
You'll tighten your vice on me

End all this pain
End all these lies
Why can't you let me go
Why won't you say goodbye
This is my anticipation of eternal damnation 
Please end this nightmare thats become my life

As light fades to impending evanescence 
Bittersweet memories exacerbate your presence
Your eidolic takes a hold of my heart
And with a sadistic smile, you rip me apart
When I awake I no longer see your face
Haunted by your memories I fall to my knees
For I'll always know in a nightmares embrace
You'll tighten your vice on me
