I lay here, waiting for you

Take me away

A life that never was

Poison me with memory

I fade deeper into myself

My mind has been cursed to rot

Oh, darkness come

Push this world away

Oh, daylight come

Burn my bones to ash

I wake, ablaze

Bound across this astral bridge

Do the flames of this pyre

Drift across the land

And light an ember inside your chest?

Can you feel me here

Fading away into nothing?

I planted the seeds of my own annihilation many years ago

Now I lay my body at the altar of dreams

Take me into your arms and watch the black veins drain the light from the sky
