Cellos for the Insatiable

Curtains fall over my shroud, around my wrists the orchestra plays
Frozen, this bosom aches, piercing lullabies, piercing preys
Only cellos, black robes and gowns, dimly dance for air in grief
And looming portraits of a mother gazing at my inner pleas

Step — into an ongoing nightmare
Go — ride into blistering trails below
— Tear heart and soul
Stop — for Jekyllish I'll haunt you,
Through — a sleepwalking hunt in despair
— Take care of you

I brave for sin — shedding my skin

Clenched cries, her drowning sweet hands bygone, waving and fleeting
Dull slave for mournful twists she bled, like a rainbow leaking
Wax victims in a ritual, echoes to quench my frailty at dawn
The fifth horseman I become, riding those whispers spawned

Step — into an ongoing nightmare
Go — ride into blistering trails below
— Tear heart and soul
Stop — for Jekyllish I'll haunt you,
Through — a sleepwalking hunt in despair
— Take care of you

Soon forgotten faces shine on shattered mirrors, remnants of rape
Supremely, skin cellos play the ghost of melodies and darkest shade

Step — into an ongoing nightmare
Go! ride into blistering trails below
— Tear heart and soul
Stop — for Jekyllish I'll haunt you, through
A sleepwalking hunter in despair
— Take care of you

Step!
Go!
I brave for sin
Step!
Go!
Shedding my skin
