Blood rolls down from my swollen eyes As I watch myself decompose Drop by drop she swallows my being I'm too tired to feel the pain My lifeless feet melt and drip down And in time the rest is to follow The strength to fight back I lost it years ago Discovering new bones and muscles Just as they snap and dissolve Losing more than I ever had I am content and calm Only by withstanding this tribulation Am I to become one with my will Triumphant return to power A true image of my highest ideals I drank and I drank from the well Of poisonous obsession Maddened by desire I wanted to bear the disease What I did not sacrifice I lost in the fall Spinelessly twitching In a puddle of secretions Skin eaten away by acid Flesh burnt by salt My triumph now out of reach I will never be whole again The earth longs for my flesh I know the time is closing in But the release is fleeing The sleep is drifting away Come, Death Give me what life could not Come, Death Give me closure Come, Death Give me what life could not Come, Death Give me a conclusion
