Darling E

They told me the pills would make the voices stop. But they only made him louder, I lost myself tonight I watch you sleeping in the pale moonlight I count your breaths to keep the dark from sight I want to stroke your hair, I want to keep you safe I’m praying to the silence, lost in this embrace But underneath the skin, the hunger starts to bloom I smell the salt and sweat across the room She wants to be your bride, she wants to be your wife I want to be the knife that ends your stupid life Half of me is trembling, begging you to run I love you like the morning, I need you like the sun But half of me is ancient, rotting from the core I'll drag you down to hell and lock the fucking door I look into the mirror, but I don't see my face... Of course you don't, you filthy waste of space If I kiss you, will you taste the tears I cry? Or will you taste the sulfur as you die? Good morning, darling, you are the only thing I need Open your eyes, my love. It’s time to feed Half of me is trembling, begging you to run I love you like the morning, I need you like the sun But half of me is ancient, rotting from the core I'll drag you down to hell and lock the fucking door Your life is only mine Your life is only mine Your life is only mine Your life is only mine
