Echoing silence
screeching through these walls
misty coldness moulding this place
my blackened nails scratching through the halls
the heavy fall of my footsteps in time
with the beating of your heart

Come now, take my hand
let my darkened eyes
be your light
my hair of ash
the web that covers you

Here, in this cup I hold
the liquidity of life
that allows you to flow
into the channel of immortality
drink not my blood
just taste the poison upon my lips
...plant me a kiss
as your breath grows life in me
surrender to me
