Contract For The Reaper

I follow in
Like breathless wind
Sleepless nights gone black

Lay in wait
Watching faith
Slip from forlorn past

Unaware
Of that which stares

Glaring on
Desolation
Sanity on the fringe

Wits at end
The blade's staff
Secured by her hand

Lover scorned
Heart of stone

Sink to the pits
Steel in hand
Drug across barren waste and fruitless land
Cauterized my soul with one touch
I feel my heart as it slows
Sink with me
As it slows
Sink with me

She tries to comfort me
As we go down
She preaches finality and trust
I can't relate to this
Cold dark bitch
Who laughs at my mortality

If I could only see you
Unveil you
Control you
I would still pay my due
But torture you
Impale you
Before I succumb to you
Taste you
Feel you
Navigating your cold darkness
An intoxicating endless kiss

I pull my face away
Blood and dirt stain my hands
From trying to dig out
Please just free me

Contract for the reaper
She calls out my name
And I lift my eyes

Face to face
Grave mistake
Contract for the reaper

Face to face
Grave mistake
Contract for the reaper

I look to the sky
Stretched thin and sullen
My sockets are dried
Please just free me

I look to the sky
Stretched thin and sullen
My sockets are dried
Please just free me
