The Search
Close my eyes
Count to ten
Search the world
Find my men.
I kill others when
I'm sick of dying
I hurt myself
And go on lying.
I wanted that innocence
I wanted to be a child
But I'm just a beast
A human gone wild.
I'm the accursed thing
That eats children at night
Searching in their bodies
What I can't find in the light.
Endless search, endless hunt
I'll even rip myself apart
All to find those two men
The only halves of my heart.
