Lustfully Dead

By Liath

While there's all the time in the world to waste
I still cannot resist the alluring sight
Of my own blood pooled in the cut
Of your blood, I long for a taste

I have bled enough to fill the oceans great
Endured enough pain and sorrow
I refuse to accept this as my fate
My hate-lust Satan seeks to borrow

And so as tonight gives in to tomorrow
And my face is clouded with sorrow
My jaws tighten and bulge to maintain control
And the veins in my arms are turned black as coal

The hate that I breed
Compares not to the love on which I feed
Fueled by the need
To have my soul freed
I do one last sinister deed
And make an angel bleed
All from my love-driven greed
