Thrown Into the Sun

Off this crumbling frame

Chance the fall

Into your gaping chest

 

Followed my bleeding

Dreams on wing

To lay where you rest

 

Slow burn

With veins in the wall

I’m home

 

Nerve’s knots braved my steps

This mad chase

Through the maddening reign

 

Nightmares gored my eyes

I felt through

To catch your throbbing name

 

Thirsty

Ink-bitten hands

I’m home

 

Of all my hours

That you fill

I drown

My highest hopes

Black and blue

To keep you

 

Throw me across the sun

Ashes to ashes

Blow me away

 

Upon the beat and break

Of your hell hung heart

Breathe me awake

 

If you

E’er dare

To run

 

My beautiful beast

With rapture blushed skin

Drenched with sparks

 

So demure in your

Wild whipped temper

Thick sick of dark

 

Razor

Feather sewn arms

I’ll wait

 

Come on, Hasten haste

Search the threads

Lies woven in your spine

 

Rip the sutures free

Will you feel

Once again, in time

 

Patience

War worn back

I’ll wait

 

Of all my hours

That you fill

I drown

My highest hopes

Black and blue

To keep you

 

Throw me across the sun

Ashes to ashes

Blow me away

 

Upon the beat and break

Of your hell hung heart

Breathe me awake

 

If you

E’er dare

To speak

 

You defy to **** death

This fevered wonder

Your mirror’s pride

 

In which you lay yourself

To bed and to sleep

‘Hind hollow eyes

 

Will you

E’er dare

To fly
