There is not enough to fill this black hole
That was once my heart and soul
On a good day
It is of the deepest, darkest gray
Other than that
It is forever black
One more virginal mind attracted to this dark
Falsely believing, you’ll remain unharmed
You smile and talk about innocence lost
How can you even begin to know your cost
You say you will devote your love to me
How foolish, I consume youthful curiosity
I will swallow it whole
My tender, little morsel
And the essence that is now you
Will be fouled as it passes through
A faint whimper in my void
Another innocent destroyed
Your mind will be ravaged
Your heart will be savaged
Your soul will be raped
Once you begin, there is no escape
So you still wish to leap into this abyss
Okay, then blow your mother a good-bye kiss
And pour your immaculate light right on in
For it will never be seen again
