Of Styx, and Stones

Of Styx, and Stones

It stings
When you tear away from me
Rips my flesh apart
To the bone
And I weather
Erode away
It crumbles,
My heart of stone
I wait for you
But as always
You have nothing at all to say
And I’m buried alive
But that’s okay
You don’t love me, anyway

Fire pours out
From my finger tips
Ablaze, insane, my eyes
In vain
Streaming infernos
Circle within
Zephyrs of all you said
Acid rain
I look to you
But as always
You have nothing at all to say
And I’m burning out
But that’s okay
You don’t love me, anyway

I twist the knife
Carve out my veins
And the bed is
Washed red, anew
I seek answers, hidden, buried
Blurred from my view
In sinew
I glance at you
But as always
You have nothing at all to say
And I’m bleeding out
But that’s okay
You don’t love me, anyway

I inhale another lungful of
Fresh water, rushing, choking in
This is the cost of love, I’ll pay
For loving you more
Than Hell loves sin
I call to you,
But as always
You have nothing at all to say
And I’m drowning now
But that’s okay
You don’t love me, anyway

I’m dying now
But that’s okay
You never loved me
Anyway
