A Shape Within the Darkness

Beneath the veneer of searing hatred lies a deeply sinister form
The earth rejects my presence as the chrome pierces my flesh
Lacerations in my skin begin to open as I'm drained of my blood
My body called out, and they responded in kind

A violent entity

Forcing darkness through my veins as they inhabit me
Wretched visions in my mind confirm impurity
An affliction of my body and it's killing me
I can feel you in my brain, in every part of me

Thread the needle between my lips
Drive the nails through my fingertips
Because I asked for this, every broken limb
And now I'm begging you

Flay me alive

Open vessels drain before me in a new light
Pulling skin back from the bone to reach a new height
I exist within the darkness I have called on
How could one person bleed this much?
