Rat Queen

I’ve been pacing the seams of my brain like endless corridors.
They darken and they sharpen and they narrow at every turn.
Ive been damned from the start and that’s alright.
So ill chew my tongue and grit my teeth to dust
While I swat away the flies
Be mine. Be my anodyne.
I found these pills, they met my head and
We made love over and over again.
But it don’t fill this hole… anymore…
Baby I am your man when I am drunk.
When im drunk yeah, im your man.
Its real love, I can feel it.
You’ve been damned from the start and thats alright.
Be my saviour, ill be your device.
Your name rings like a single sick chord
Simply struck over and over again
Rats always desert the sinking ship first.
But it dont fill this hole… anymore…
You can fake it well enough
To be good enough for me.
It will do just fine.
