Darkness, Darkness

Darkness

Eating me from out

Darkness

Inspiring me, punishing me

Darkness

From your eyes I can see the stars

Darkness

An innate sense of pleasure

A burning of my flesh

Red ooze trickling from my wrists

Spilling out

Over the pavement

A sacrifice

To the world of the dead

I gladly put myself on the cross

Almost willingly

I gladly sacrificed my soul

So you could see the sun

Darkness

Fading in, fading out

Darkness

That cold and comforting blanket

Pulling me inside itself

Singing me to sleep

Until the demons grab my body again
