My price is
ruination
I know you can dethrone
But still that doesn't stop
Me
From getting close to you
My price is
isolation
I know you can destroy me
But my black soul needs a bit of colour
And you're a palette of life
My price is
illumination
I've been in the shadows for way too long
And now my heart is turning
into a vault
My price is
contamination
Don't touch me
Or I'll burn your pretty skin
right off
Remember, remember
That I'm not of this world
Remember, remember
That I'm black, and vast, and cold
Remember, oh please, remember
That an angel like me, made of ink and skin and spleen
Cannot exist for more than a half life
Even if your warmth makes me
Come alive
Remember
*
Remember
The universe never gave birth to me
And so I wasn't meant to be
