Emptiness Corrupts

Almost everything consumes me
no matter how many times I let go
I just can't...emptiness has me captured.

I desire to fall from the edge
to fly with the Angels
but I can't for my wings have been torn off.

Sanity left
knife is in my hand
ready to do the world a favor.

Nightmares are dreams too.
I wish they would kill me
No relief...no freedom

Let my demons consume me
Let my fantasies be destroyed
Silence will haunt me.

He left with oceans in my eyes
though his hug brings the key to my chains,
I can't help but notice I'm a worthless Angel.

If only he could see
how much he means to me
but I wonder if he could ever know.

The first kiss tasted like poison
making me weak
left me lying there counting stars.

I want to disappear
but I want to satisfy his love
...his love I yearn

I've fallen for the deadliest emotion
I'm having trouble breathing
and I'm running, trying to see if I can break free.

No use - I'm too deep
within his grasp.
A sweet heart within a heart so cold.

Give me one last kiss
before killing me
and make me believe it's a dream.

You've become my everything
making me leave my killer ways
allow me to stay and mark me as time consumes.
