Cancel the light
come gorge on the dark
Tears wrung from sadness
spilled ignite a spark
Misery waist deep
Drown in well of cold tears
Fuel for the flame
strikes the flint of my fears
Hold my breath, still my heart, steal the rhythm of beat
Extinguish eyes light
Warm blood cold leaks the heat
In darkness I sit
as the light ebbs away
It’s the darkness I crave
douse the bright flame of day
Let the sun bleed-out
shed the light in deep pools
Blood stained darkness
Let’s bend all the rules
Place white-hot coals on my eyes
Line of sight bent round corners.
Feel your way
reading Braille
there's signs there to warn us
Fear not the unseen
for there’s nought there to harm you
Dance to your heartbeat
breathing deep it will calm you
Cancel the light
Come gorge on the dark
Go with the flow
close your eyes
dull the spark.
