Decay

by Avellana   Mar 23, 2006


Unacknowledged to most
Hidden and locked from view
Living, Existing there nevertheless
In the darkest, deepest part of you

The voice that comes out in darkness
Whose nails run down scarred skin
Fingertips looking for collar and bones
Proving you never can win

Searching for the lost answers
Haunting each of your dreams
Pulling out slowly, hair after hair
Ripping apart at the seams

Pointing out imperfections
Drowning you in all her fears
Pushing you down in the deep end
Mocking your many spilled tears

Exhilarated by every failure
Played and danced in every failed wish
Stuffing your face with her desire
Whilst purging you of your last dish

Introducing the demons
You've been running from most of your life
Meet Ana and Mia, the darlings
Who tempt you the most in the night

Lactic Acid's the method of torture
But Bile when you've really given in
Depression when they're disappointed
Then the razor when every box
Has been ticked

Unless your living in darkness
And thrive in quicksand and mud
You cant understand the relationship
That is based on mutual disgust
