Choke on my own blood As I scream myself to sleep Smothered by unanswered prayers And parched desires Like a ****** of crows My devils circle above me Awaiting the steaming carrion Of the remnants of my heart
My sorrows countless The only ones that shall Share my bed this night Assemble and lay their traps for me As my sequestered soul Wanders the nightscape Seeking her out But finding only the hooks and snares Set by my conspiracy of demons Waiting just behind the lids of my eyes
I do not dream... I fall I do not sleep... I die This bed of nails a coffin These musty sheets a shroud Tasting nightly deaths Condemned and cast out To the sun cracked wastelands
Lay no stone To mark this unholy site Scatter my ashes Over her homeland That I may finally know her As her sweet breath Stirs the dying embers Of my spirit.
