Alone in the dark


In a few deliberate words that fall like rain in a desert
I evaporate into nothing as you feed like a heartless vulture
Consuming all that is left of me, leaving sun bleached bones

Regardless, the sand counts in silence as ignorance clouds your eyes
Be as you are my great princess denial will rot your mind
For it is not I who will survey a kingdom empty, arid and puerile

Feast and gorge on what is left I hope you have had your fill
My rotten flesh will make you sick, my scavenger of broken souls
Now fly back to where it is you hide, fly far away, until you die

I heard you say there's only you ( you, you, you) until the end
but ghosts of truth and foolishness walk gently through the night
and dark is where your soul repents, (walk the night in fright my friend)
(walk the night in fright my friend)

walk the night in fright
