A lonely chill whistles through the frigid cavern
Relinquished by safe dreams of disaster

A quantum pipeline flooding the tunnels beneath the skin
Liquid shadows chase away the sickness within

Daytime vampires still avoid their reflection
So too when you've become a human pincushion

To my misfortune, I still know I'm alive
Seeing that ghoulish figure in her eye

Time speeds up when similarities arise
Finding out she was like me brought no surprise

Though the lack of courage in me I'll always abhor
Ignoring muffled cries as she was defiled on the floor

Victimized by a demon of southern descent
Who's persuading chemical garden agreed to pay rent

My heart again tricked into exploited compassion
Being used is an empath's true addiction

Squeezed dry of all sympathy for this toxic being
With all exits locked, only death could intervene

But waking up wasn't included in the script
His last minute changes I couldn't prohibit

Unexpected relief set in, seeing that he had fled
Cut short upon sight of the empty vessel in my bed

For a virgin of the life I'd been enslaved,
Such combined chemical gifts can be grave

No drug in the world alleviates the anger and heartache

Nor the wishful chance to tell Death he'd made a mistake
