tw: mention of what could be perceived as self-harm/suicide

i'll go down with my demons
share with them this sinking flesh ship
and when we slip beneath the water
i will suck down their poison
so in turn they will breathe me in

sharing false air until my lungs blacken
and i am indistinguishable from them

you might say that i'm foolish
for slitting my wrists to follow their darkness
for drowning inside my shared mind

but something that you have forgotten
is that we are all fallen stars
and beyond those atmospheric heavens
the sky is so very dark

that there are no blinding suns—
no planets to live on—
without first that void

so i will follow my demons
for without them i cannot shine
