Crave

Shaded corners are depth eternal
Leading to his land infernal
Footsteps echo on the ground
Voice of silence crushes sound

Push away ornamental lies
Slip behind and close your eyes
When you return to light once more
Forget the thoughts your mind has bore

But when again the hardships chase
Your footsteps to that darkened place
Perhaps this will be that coming moment
When your escapism he will foment

When cold stone pressed against your back
Evaporates into the black
And his sweet pain entwines your heart
From sanity and sadness you will part

You'll lose your mind in his embrace
But find a smile upon your face
For though you'll never be the same
A mind gone mad is free from pain
