Consume Me Forever

Consume Me Forever

A Poem by Linzey
"

Working on this as a song. Got a friend helping me a little bit with it.

"

Sitting on the floor of this rat infested room
Holding on to the faith that used to keep me sane
I can't take this life anymore
Sucking me dry
Looking so different from the man they all remembered
Let me slowly fade away
While my bones turn to paper
And my skin turns to dust
Just never let them see who I've finally become as this human being

Well if you hold me close tonight
My life may quickly change
If only I can close my eyes
And feel it all crash down around me
Yet I know it will consume me
So let me take my final bow
As my curtains close
Let it consume my life forever
As I say goodbye to the world I used to know

Needles thrown everywhere
Unable to find one to use
Yet the liquid calls my name once again
Fumbling for money
As my hands shake with greed
Let it flow through my veins once again
Feeding the need that never leaves me
Consuming me with a passion that always grows

Well if you hold me close tonight
My life may quickly change
If only I can close my eyes
And feel it all crash down around me
Yet I know it will consume me
So let me take my final bow
As my curtains close
Let it consume my life forever
As I say goodbye to the world I used to know

Weaker and weaker you'll see me everyday
Always changing
Never the same
Yet I'll be just as I was before

Working for a goal that leads to death

Loving every minute of it

Holding it like a love whom I want to never leave

So just let me be

Let me die

Well if you hold me close tonight

My life may quickly change

If only I can close my eyes

And feel it all crash around me

Yet I know it will consume me

So let me take my final bow

As my curtins close

Let it consume my life forever

As I say goodbye to the world I used to know
