When I scream in the hollow of my heart
I wonder who can hear my cries
As passion, anger, and desire create an inferno
Who can see the blaze behind the curtain of my eyes
When I reach out into the endless void
Who is out there reaching back for me
As I bleed out in my lightless world of shadow
Who can look into my darkness and see
When the depraved laughter takes my heart
Who doesn't shudder and turn away
When the hatred takes me far from this place
I wonder who is it that will stay
Lying deep in the cold forgotten
Drinking in the bitter nothing
Hollow thoughts fill an empty heart
Counting the minutes that do not pass
Shudder in the grip of complete despair
Waiting for nothing to come
Waiting for absolutely nothing at all
Lying deep in the cold forgotten
Lips to lips
Teeth to flesh
Taste by taste
Hand to throat
Hips to hips
Inch by inch
Writhe and twist
Moan and gasp
Breath by breath
Into the night I surrender my being
To leave behind those unseeing
Now with eyes open wide
I will take the darkness as my bride
Let me drink in the deepest night
To savor such wicked delight
Calling out loud
Can you hear me?
The fire to heat
Falling inside
Do you see me?
A hammer to shape
Broken and shattered
Pieces all over the ground
The image of who I was
What happened to them?
I can't see myself there
That isn't me
How can that be me?
I'm not him anymore
Fallen apart too many times
Calling out loud
Can you hear me?
The fire to heat
Falling inside
Do you see me?
A hammer to shape
Facing the mirror of myself
An unfamiliar thing
A greater image of me
When did this happen?
I don't know that smile
So strange and right
How is this myself?
Who I am and who I was
Put back together so many times
