The evenings bring with a coat of cold
And twilight's fading darkness
Warms me with the warmth of drunk awakening.
All that was blurred becomes clearer now -
The hands that throttle in caresses.
The raven beaks that peck at wounds fresh
And flesh screaming in agony.
Invisible forms are roaming about the night
Clad in blood and rubble
His Highness denying them entrance into cradling hands
And demons mocking at the rotting flesh.
A girl is sitting alone by the road
Drawing her wasted rags about her form for moral cold.
Wishes cannot get her home
Nor would the Almighty Heavens descend.
My lips speak words they are unworthy of
For my eyes are keen yet blind.
Cover me in the mystic of the blue tonight
Let me be the threads of hell and heaven intertwined
Let my anger be a destructive dance
And my pleading bring back that undead to life.
Paint me in the cosmic shades
Let me not dwell but only float and fade
Till nothing but the empty feels full
And all that was full be drained to dregs
Emptied to live among narrowing roads.
