Work Text:
You walked into my life
with a casual stroll
And you kissed me greedily
Like fire kisses coal
Your head was stapled to the lightning
Your feet were chained to hell
With a madman's smile (and those devil's eyes)
I forgot myself
Love me, dear, o love me
I'll do anything you say
You were too mad to love me
But I loved you anyway
You complained about your boredom
But I suspect you were just lonely
And you tried to fuck your solitude out
And it spilled out of you (of your mouth, your nose, your eyes)
(like vomit)
And I got soaked in it
But you were no more dry
When I knocked on your shell
You made a hollow noise
So you carved me out
And played with me like toys
But I could not fill your emptiness
(my heart didn't fit in your chest)
So you left both of us hollow
And wanting
for more
So love me, Jim, just love me
I'll help you through this mess
But you were too sad to love me
So I was powerless
You loved a tall dark stranger
With a mind as fast as yours
And I faded to the background
Rejected and ignored
I was your feeble attempt at living
But he was life itself
And what a great acquaintance
For you, the lord of Death
But you finally found the vein
From which your sadness bled
And the red dripped to the ground
From the back of your blood-stained head
Love me, Jim, please love me
Love me, darling, please
But you are too dead to love me
And I am too sad to breathe
