Dark Passenger
A dark feeling passes through
It grazes the heart without taking it out
It visits and departs when asked to
And unlike me, Some find peace
I wish to know such release
Only a babe and i was born in blood
The pivotal growth of darkness’s greed
First a drop and forever craving more
Needing to see the splatters bleed
From iron to flesh it drips and dries
It crusts and flakes and floats away
But my urge never dies
It grows to growl and mocks me
For all my pleading nothing’s changed
So i’ll lock myself away
Turn from this and pretend a prayer absolves
All and every crimson sin i’ve written
Signed in red, my name
