Empty Me

What night never abandoned
 In shallow darkness dwell
 The evidence in pools of black
 Light cannot penetrate, light cannot penetrate
 Have you come for my forgiveness
 There's nothing left to give
 No response to your repentance
 This empty me
 Lifted from the living days
 To be bent right out of shape
 Let blades and satisfiers
 Cut and lick these wounds
 In reversal of repentance
 This bastard son of lies
 To bring meaning to it all, meaning to it all
 Have you come for my forgiveness
 There's nothing left to give
 No response to your repentance
 This empty me
 Take now from this body
 A coward's heart
 And a soul beyond repair
 Empty me
 Between insecurity and reason
 Self deprecation as a means to the end
 Out of reach but never closer
 A cure that searches for the cause of this
 Cause for chaos
 Have you come for my forgiveness
 There's nothing left to give
 No response to your repentance
 This empty me
 Drawn from memories the fragments linger
 On ages of thought and seconds of sleep
 What is it here that tempts the night
 To stab the day and kill the light
