In Hell

Info


Hell

There are cracks in the street 

They're going to swallow you 

Into a deep 

And cavernous wasteland 

You're going to rip out your fingernails 

Clinging to the surface 

As you're pulled by your feet 

And your joints crack

It's all black around you 

Hot wet seeping down your calves 

There's something sharp in the dark 

And your eyes are dilated in futility 

And it smells like an upturned grave 

**Sniff** From the thirties 

It stinks of austerity 

And you're down to your last fingernail

Lubricated in the blood 

of past compatriots 

And you're wanting some love 

But the only thing between your thighs right now 

Somehow 

Is your face 

As you struggle and contort in pain 

Blind and scared in the hot wet rain 

There's something sharp in the dark 

Hot and heavy now 

Your bones are bloated and soaked in blood 

..............

And you see red 

..............

And you see black 

............... 

And you taste spiders 

...............

And they're tasting you back

                DONA
