Bloodletting from Machina by ANIMÅRUM

Kept in the dark
Left to suffer abuse and pain
Can’t see the marks
Seclude myself, dissociate
Lost in the dark
Begging for the scythe
Dying to erase that night

After vampire’s kiss
It’s clear what I missed
Impending
Impending devastation
Labyrinth, no rope
How can there be hope?

How long can I bury my sorrow?
Too long
Can’t wait
Until
Can’t wait ‘til tomorrow
Pain is all
All that’s left inside
I’m hollow

Kept in the dark
Left to suffer abuse and pain
Can’t see the marks
Seclude myself, dissociate
Lost in the dark
Begging for the scythe
Dying to erase that night

I counted oncoming lights to seal away
the blight of tomorrow’s isolation

Impending
Impending devastation
Labyrinth, no rope,
How can there be hope?

It was when I could think only of killing myself
That I began to look at things differently
Transfigured by pain, by neglect
By betrayal, by abuse
Until I could feel nothing
A profound loneliness
Rooted in my worst humiliations
My most hated insecurities
Sleepless nights grieving
Drowning in an ocean of shame
Until I was practically begging to die
No matter how I cried
Even unto the brink of suicide
The darkness cared not
