Bête Noire

 Bête Noire

Take my pain —

take me,

take it away.

Cut me.

Bleed me.

Breed me.

Insanity.

Say you’re sorry.

Addiction.

Pain. Lust.

Things unjust.

Wrong. Corrupt. Destitute.

Rage — drink this. One sip.

Wash it all away.

Make love to destruction.

Another day. Another way.

Taste it.

Feel it.

It overtakes your soul.

Your head — a hole.

I’m your Savior.

I’m your drug.

Your ecstasy.

Take it, bastard.

You need me.

Drop to your knees.

Listen. Please.

Scream.

Agony.

Hatred.

Disease.

Profanity.

Say you need me.

A lasting impression.

Questions ignored.

Hear me.

See me.

I won’t go away.

Too much to say.

Beating drums.

Mind-numbing noise.

Distaste.

Losing poise.

Tomorrow, yesterday —

running away.

Fills your mind.

Empty void.

Leaves you behind.

I’m your lover.

Your mother.

Your dreams.

Nothing’s as it seems.

Drink from the throat —

tears of blood.

Touch me.

Caress me.

Ecstasy. Distress.

Pornography.

Say you want me.

A vision of death.

Try walking away.

Never again.

Never say.

Gone.

Living in sin.

See my fears?

Watch me cry.

Taste my tears.

I’ll get to you.

In your heart — fresh start.

I am nothing.

You are all.

You are nothing —

standing tall.

Take me.

I’m your soul.

Take me.

Fill this hole.

You are me.

I am all you are.

You want this fallen star.

You and me.

My darkness. Your light.

One mind. One soul.

We run. We fight.

Fuck it.

I just want to drown you —

in you,

for you,

with you.

Be you.

In me.

One night…
