like rot and hollow,
it echoes in me
feed me your breath
onto pages I bleed
my thoughts where they stay far away from me
falling deeper to sleep
like bees and honey,
it stays in my mind
beats me to death
as I'm going blind
from the sunlight and good that forsakes me
as I wait here in silence
like rot and hollow, it echoes in me
witchcraft and talented weavers take heed
there's bumps up ahead in the road that you trod
be careful, be careful, my darling
be careful, be careful, my darling
like moth into flame,
I am caught by the light
a spider's wise words help me not,
'cause they bite
take lightly my words and then take all but naught
falling deeper asleep
like gnashing teeth
and burning eyes
terrible deeds
and love in the night
I carry the secret so far in my mind
'til nothing's left here but ashes
