Belly of the Beast

I'm in the belly of the beast
The darkness here is obscene
Coals of fire for concrete

Death does not come when you want it
Though you beckon, it tarries
Its music, deafening screams swallowed up in silence

Yea means nay and night removes the daylight
Like resembles hate and
Destruction is encased in dreadful bliss

The memory of love is consumed
In its absence chaos runs rampant
Comfort is found in defeat

I have no voice, no water for tears
Pure agony, my weariness is rest
Pain camouflaged in pleasure

No meat, no drink
Only fire embraces
No childlike visage to brighten the soul

Buried so deeply no vision of earth
The galaxy hides its face from me
There is no sunlight and no song
