The Walls, They Whisper

The lighting was impeccable
Her ominous white glow hovering above the lone stool
Waiting for my gift to arrive
I grinned anxiously as I sat in my throne, directly facing the stool
My foot endlessly tapping
My teeth chattering
My eyes fixated on the clock as it hung above the doorway
Quietly stalking the stool
I paced from the living room to the corroding window
And veered through the looking glass
Her elongated body floated up the stairwell
And the walls, they whispered
The walls, they whispered

The lighting burns the glass, impatience
A laugh, a taste to sulk
Keep singing, my breathing stop
Air turns to fog, release me
The lighting burns the glass, impatience
A laugh, a taste to sulk
Keep singing, my breathing stop
Air turns to fog, release me

I embrace the witness of
All engulfing tongues, attack, whiplash
She, breather of light, falls
Into my arms, eyes leak
I, witness, I, failure
I, devil, I, creator
I, ender, I, vagrant
I, father, a god
Pain, pain
Pain, pain

Pain, pain
Pain, pain
I inflame
I inflame

I consume her peeling flesh
The choir surrounds, the choir refills
I consume her peeling flesh
The choir surrounds, the choir refills
