Slip away fiend of the night
Lose yourself in starry skies
Let go my wrist from your clutch
I only await your demise
I will glare at your eyes
Until I turn blind
Fall over our lies
Until I get left behind
I look forward each day
To the sight of the sun
You long for the moment it dissolves
Knowing what’s done is done
My wrist aches and is wreathed in hidden flame
My heart is yearning for the learning of your name
Only deaf to the words; I hear the beat of your heart
The hollow sounds between us, impossible to tell apart
