Artificial Antidote

Artificial Antidote

I travel through the gallows of your mind
Looking for anything I can find
Just a glimpse, of who you are
Within my sky, my black star
I've always drawn the shortest straw
My emotions, so exposed and raw
In my mind, your vision I paint
I've never been one, searching for saints
My dark soul, I do regress
I'd share with you, to impress
Shattered life, dreams that lie
Fucking fairy tales, I wanna die
Telling me of this, Prince charming
All lies, my body screaming
Only in my head, or just my demons
Bit by bit of you, I feed
Steal your heart, for this I'd bleed
Are you the antidote, for what ails me
For everywhere I look, your all I see
