As I open up the door to find you, I blink and then you're gone given to infinity

Blanket in meditative obsession

Memories now do race through my mind

Symphonies of thought I'm unable to find to fill the void between my soul and my thoughts

Here is how it all began

You tortured heart left to trembling hands that tried to grip the sand locked in an hourglass

The gray shapes that blind you the demons will find you and lead you back home

You satisfied the craving when all your raving lunacy brought you to your knees

And I still remember the words you spoke they'll never leave

And I'm still waiting for you to return, but the truth is you better off locked far away

And as I look beneath the floors where you once dwelled, I'm finding evidence of how you must have felt

A book of photographs containing your own face

But missing your eyes and piles of razor blades

And by your bedside lays a book of half finished venomous scriptures

Tales of calamity and crumbling existence, humanity's frailties and divine resistance

And as you now watch me wander through madness

Craving all my complicated festering sadness

Believing all these walls are closing around me, echoing all these words back through my head

I'll satisfy the craving when all my raving lunacy brings me to my knees

And I still remember the words you spoke, they'll never leave

And I'm still waiting for you to return, but the truth is you're better off locked far away

Lay on your back in cloudy fields of forever, look at the clouds in brilliant patterns so clever

Disintegrate into the earth and remember the feelings we shared about our sickening surrender

And I just don't know how to explain what you took when you left me

A piece of my mind, my soul, my breath, my existence, leaving only moments tattooed in my memories

And for the love of god I cannot accept what infinity took from me

I cry out on theses sleepless nights hoping that you'll somehow feel my energy

You satisfied the craving when all your raving lunacy brought you to your knees

And I still remember the words you spoke they'll never leave

This is my requiem
