penance

device

in the perfect dark

a botticellian angel exists

the elusive partner puts her key in my hand

a fairly simple gesture

shrouded in evil

as she distorts

it becomes easy to understand

lost in her piercing eyes

as everything around me

dies

well

can you make the nightmares go away

can you pull the demon from inside?

will penance make the nightmares go away?

and save me from this endless night

in the choking dark

i try to move

i'm unable

a hundred thousand moving creatures

tickle my flesh

i feel the heat

it's getting harder to breathe. i feel the panic taking hold

for i'm beginning to understand. the only way i'll be saved

is if someone breaks into my grave

don't need it

don't want it

no more sedation

no more sedation

don't need it

don't want it

eradicate this endless aching inside
