Promised One

Feels like the last time
Your fingers reach into my mind
Nails scratch the inside of my eyes
Will not let you see me cry
My nerves are shot, my limbs have gone numb
My wretched heart hammers like a drum
The words you speak, incantations
Summoning forth joyful desecration

It occurs to me the folly of
Reliving dreams of my promised one
Earth is clay to recreate
My perfect face to hide away

Still they come, these dreams I see
They hold me here, I'm far from free
You split your face, that hideous smile
Rises in my throat, venom and bile
And I will bleed patiently
Hold back screams painfully
I will stay, how can this be?
What holds me here, there's nothing for me

Feels like the last time
Your fingers reach inside my mind
