Kill the Lights

[Dogstar]

There’s a sickness hanging over me
Circling like a starving vulture
Watching for the bits and pieces
Of everything that made me whole
There’s a darkness overtaking me
Lurking like a bloated spider
Thirsting for the blood and sweat
Of everything that fucker stole

Kill the lights, close my eyes
To the bitter taste that I despise
Kill the lights, close my eyes
To the open sores that burn inside

A hollow veneer clouds the reflection
Fading like the fog in a dream
Stealing from the silver chalice
Everything that I rendered dear
The cracked hand of fate slithers toward me
Creeping like a sea of lava
Consuming all of the memories
Of everything that fed my fear

Kill the lights, close my eyes
To the piercing pain that thrives inside
Kill the lights, close my eyes
To the silent cries that I deny

Wow, thanks, creedsister! That's pretty cool. You know, I was kind of uptight when I was writing it, but I felt better, too, after I was done with it :D.
