Cannibal

I want to be your food, I want to course through you
I want to fall into your mouth, then for you to trap me down, down
Make me suffocate, so I can't escape - so close the cells fuse

A child's fascination with the new
With special attentions, obsessions ensue
And with the teasing of the edges
The world's condensed down to inches
"Dirty"s not a word I ever understood
An angel's clean from head to toe

Two hearts born in winter, worn not on the sleeve
Despite change in season the cold wouldn't leave
It's only befitting the two were to meet
And trigger the change from desire to heat
An urge that was planted before I was born
To worship your every function and form
Funny to think that a difference so plain
Attracts us to that which just makes us the same

We're meant to toil on the earth, to fill our heavens with mirth
I don't need babies or bells, to want this with no one else
You gave me the right to merge with your life
Our flesh won't last for long (and it knows it)

Oh, but careful - for when we fail to seize our kingdoms
We're ruled by false rewards
(And we couldn't hate ourselves more)

I remember when I was human
