A CURE OF POISON

I’m going to bleed in your soul
I’m going to leave you beneath the fear
No shelter in your sleep
I’m going to keep you from screaming, and from tears
I am not a ghost story
I am something violently severe
A whispering cry inside your darkness
And you’ll now forever feel me when you can’t see I am here
Tell me, where is your lifeboat?
Bow down to me, your faiths’ treachery
I am your undoing
The bad ideas that detonate inside your head
So now death is a flawed escape
It only brings you back here to me
I am your Pharaoh
Sharp and cold, dead and torn
I create perversion

You’re going to rip your own flesh
If you won’t, then I’ll scrape along you
Suck dry, and crawl away
You are my child that I keep submerged in panic
Welcome to your final peace
It is full of cold, burning shame
I’ll save no one, abandon the faithful
I am the solution, and nothing exists to stop me

So tell me, where is your comfort?
The taste of dust still upon your lips
I am your last failure
I’ll strap you to walls and inflict all of your nightmares
Feel me pry beneath your skin
Reach inside and strip you of your breathing
I am your savior
You are mine, and I’ll do anything I want to
