DATURA

A touch, a prick, a drop of red

Beauty fades let the poison spread

Lured into you like moths to flame

Haunted by a memory that wont get away from me

I can’t get away

Thoughts on my mind I cannot say

Words do not exist that express this way

Part of me was cut out by you

Left me in the shadows

Let the demons through

Datura I feel your return haunting me

Put me to sleep

Hope I never wake up

Polluted by deliriants

What a poor excuse for a near death experience

Even a perfect rose has thorns

All beauty is ephemeral

Every petal eventually wilts

Don’t need to see what eternal hell’s like

You brought it right to me

Spare me again

Im suffering in frailty

I feel the rush

Im overwhelmed but feel I never had enough

of this euphoria thats offered I was craving

My path has led me to where

now ecstasy and suffering they offer me the same thing

I reached for what i thought was love

met with indifference that would put me to the pavement

ugh

Im so exhausted im wasting away

DATURA calls me and offers decay

I’ve let my focus of mind slip away

but my ambition wont allow me to fade

Even a perfect rose has thorns

All beauty is ephemeral

Every petal eventually wilts

Don’t need to see what eternal hell’s like

You brought it right to me

Spare me again

Im suffering in frailty

With phantom steps you tread behind

Haunting presence unconfined

Datura, one more time

Succumb to your flowers

And watch me die
