"And Darkness and Decay and the Red Death held illimitable dominion overall." -- The Masque of the Red Death, Edgar Allan Poe


Skin like silk
Eyes like ice
Boring holes in the back of my mind
Voice like death
Sounds like life
His breathing in my ears
And I can’t take the madness
This crazy I’m abandoned in
I can’t take the sadness
When he leaves

Caged inside
These castle walls
Against my will if I have any at all
Voice like death
Feels like life
His lies caress my ears
And I don’t want the anger
I don’t need the pain
But I can’t take the sadness
When he leaves

I’m caught in the flame
Burning from the inside out
Trying to regain control
I’m a mess, I’m a mess
I’m breaking at the seams
I confess
I’m falling out of me
All of me
Is falling into you

It’s his fault
That I’m damaged
He locked me up
And now he stands there

I’m caught in the flame
Burning from the inside out
Trying to regain control
I’m in trouble with myself
I can’t trust my own voice
It’s a mess
Can’t make the right choice
Need to leave
Before I get too deep in you

I’m a mess I’m a mess
I’m breaking at the seams
I confess
I’m falling out of me
All of me
Is falling out of me

You’re a masterpiece, granted
Beauty unbridled
You’re a master enchanter
Charmingly perfect
And I wish I didn’t need you
And the way that you torture me
Stole my heart, such a thief
Leave me with nothing
Oh
Leave me with nothing

I’m a mess I’m a mess
I’m breaking at the seams
I confess
I‘m falling out of me
All of me
Is falling for your

Skin like silk
Eyes like ice
Drilling holes in the back of my mind
Voice like death
Sounds like life
Your lies caress my ears
