Modern Voids

Complacency
Has taken hold of me,
That ever-growing word that sings you away
From the terrors that plagued you in your teens,
And robbed you of your sleep,
All those sleepless nights you were terrified of your own mind.
Those all have died.

And now you're left with complacency.
Congratulations, these senses have all been rubbed off,
Those stubs from your soul struggle to wriggle.
You don't love, you don't lust,
You can't even be bothered to feel sad.
You're the fattest starving artist.

Complacent and surviving,
Calm and thriving,
But where do your passions lie this late at night?

Your shadows cast away and denounce you,
You're alone and weak and boring,
But that's alright, at least you're not
Foaming at the mouth, romanticizing suicide.

Complacency.

How do we get our passions back
When the fruits have no flavour?
How do we sharpen ourselves to perform at our best,
When you've chosen to grind away all the edges that pained you?

35 & Desperate

Hope you're out of hope,

So that you'll burn out and stop.

Choke on all those words

That lay loose in your throat but get caught.

You're not the kind of girl that sits with no love,

You always dress to impress all of your suitors.

But they can't suit you, such lustful attitude,

You're alone, alone.

Hell seems easy

When you're near me

Hell seems easy

When there's no chase from desperation.

Set all your desires

Alight to watch moths lick the flame.

Laugh while lovers whisper:

"Bon sang ne saurait montir, traite".

Can't kick the habit of "why can't I have it?

After all, sex is just a physical thing."

You just can't manage collateral damage

You're alone, alone.

Hell seems easy

When you're near me

Hell seems easy

When there's no chase from desperation.

I just need

Time to see

All you'll be

Is alone.

Neon Black Everything.

Taste it once, I can't forget

Now let me lick it  up until I do regret.

When I make love it's neon black everything.

When I wake up, it's neon black everything.

I drink at night, and dance so wet,

And strip myself down and feel the need to dress.

I look around, it's neon black everything.

I bleed my veins, it's neon black everything!

Kill me now, I'll resurrect,

What I'll become is the same as I was then.

In my heart, it's neon black everything.

I'm neon black, it's neon black everything!

I love the night and all it is, all within;

I love the leather, the way it chokes out my skin;

I love the lights, soak me in florescent;

I love neon and black, neon black everything!

Bury me baby, I'm alone.

Don't color me baby, I want none.
