Every day it seeps a little deeper I have it in me now I carry your mark and your curse Heartrot creeps Withers tainted sleepers I know every day it gets a little worse
A little worse
From without, the torrent's fierce erosion The undertow scouring from within Hollow rapture spreads like corrosion Mouldering me under my skin
My skin
Veins writhe Bones tremble Am I dead already Or only excarnating
Gravid pulse Something wants to waken I wilt and wane Into a membrane thinned Between debauch leeching the taken And septic rain This day's poisoned twins
Twins
Mind bends Breaks, disassembles A chrysalis incubating Cast away, barely alive
