The Nothing - As You Drown

Dead harlots come closer now!

Give your flesh to me

I’ll drink from your disease-filled cunts

These ketamine nightmares and frozen crack cocaine eyes

Are all great friends of mine

(but nothing burns as bright as this)

Darkness closing fast, on this puppet made to hang

Pitch black tunnel opens wide, grins with sharpened teeth

You don’t know what I am

Peel the plastic skin to reveal the putrid mess beneath

Deeper into nothing, a futile endless game

The twisted scent of treason, fingers spark — synthetic flame

The final consequence

Of this failure to connect

We offer up our souls, at the altar of the night

Rotting piece by piece

The worm is bursting at the seams

In the cold grip of your warm flesh, finally revealed

In powders, pills, ungodly juices — oblivion incarnate

A serpent in the shadows — aching for release

And as the veil does fall

A violent retreat

Deeper into you, into the nothing

The final consequence

Of this failure to connect

We offer up our souls, at the altar of the night

This is the end of suffering

This is the end of all dreams

We offer up souls, at the altar of the night
