Luxury For Solitary
How can you say you want into my world
How can you know, I guess you can’t.
Into this dark rancid place here,
Mine is a world filled with deep shadow
And grainy lights
Mine is a world of dripping pipes
Broken bones, blobodies of
Creatures that twitch and
Moan and wail in death
Mine is a world of deeper shadow
Where none would dare to stray
From the sanctuary of grainy light
This place needs a candle, just one
To fight on the side of warmth
Forces here that pull me down
I mean literally pull me down
And make me move by dragging
My heavy body across concrete fields
They are my life blood
This existence has ripped my clothing long ago
And now proceeds to strip me to
The bone
My fingers bleed
and my mouth was sown shut by dead rabbits
That couldn’t stand the laughter
So I crawl and mumble through stitches
Let me say what needs to be heard
So I can tell these people from shadow
Come this way and the light will follow
They can’t see the bruised blood
On dusty lamps
I need your help to tidy up a bit
Let me tell them
I am here I am here
I am alone
Please send help
