Unearthly

I might be burning, but I crave hellfire,
Extreme and unearthly. Lust and envy inspire
Those who drink deep and breathe hard,
But I want more life than a Valentine card.

I won't wait for Rapture to swallow me up.
Heaven with others isn't enough.
Instead, I want you to end my world,
So there's no one around but you and me, girl.

Our world's full of zombies who'd tear us apart
For a taste of what's in our minds and our hearts.
We two make an island in a seething crowd,
Caring just for “alive,” and not for “allowed.”

You and I can rise up, cut up the fates' weaving,
Or spin our own thread, so there's no need for leaving.
I just can't stand by and watch you be swallowed
By a whole sea of followers who seek to be followed.
