Dear Hypnos, Why must you torment me so? Your malicious abandon leaves me starving, On the verge of desperation and madness Crying and begging for salvation Though much desired, your embrace is anything but salvation The sweet sensation of peace is shortlived as you exhume long-forgotten corpses and demons To ravage and feast upon my sanity, corrupting and devouring the last of my innocence My beloved Hypnos, I can't help but loathe as much as I love What choice am I left with but to embrace this wicked hell So I'll accept the droughts and starvation, the demons and torture All to simply have you, my cruel love

Dear Hypnos
Dear Hypnos, Why must you torment me so? Your malicious abandon leaves me starving, On the verge of desperation and madness Crying and begging for salvation Though much desired, your embrace is anything but salvation The sweet sensation of peace is shortlived as you exhume long-forgotten corpses and demons To ravage and feast upon my sanity, corrupting and devouring the last of my innocence My beloved Hypnos, I can't help but loathe as much as I love What choice am I left with but to embrace this wicked hell So I'll accept the droughts and starvation, the demons and torture All to simply have you, my cruel love
