06 · Worship the Monster

They warned me of the things below

Where hungry shadows twist and grow

But when your darkness reached for me

I grabbed a hold of it willingly

Your silhouette against the wall

I watch the crawling shadows fall

Black tentacles across the floor

Uncurling as you close the door

One coils gently round my waist

Another draws me face to face

Such power hidden in your touch

You hold me close, but never crush

Pull me closer, hold me tight

Wrap me in your endless night

Your strength could tear the world apart

Yet you are gentle with my heart

I worship the monster

The darkness underneath your skin

I worship the monster

Let your shadows pull me in

Wrap me tighter, don't let go

Hold me where the light won't show

I see the danger in your eyes

I fell in love with your darkest side

Your tendrils curl around my thighs

I meet the hunger in your eyes

Each winding touch, a silent plea

For all the things you want from me

The world would call this being bound

But I have never felt more found

I choose the dark, I choose your hold

The sweetest place to lose control

I worship the monster

The darkness underneath your skin

I worship the monster

Let your shadows pull me in

Wrap me tighter, don't let go

Hold me where the light won't show

I see the danger in your eyes

I fell in love with your darkest side

No chains of iron

No sacred light

Just velvet shadows

Holding me tight

I could walk away

You'd let me go

But I pull you closer

And whisper no

I worship the monster

Every shadow, every scar

I worship the monster

Exactly as you are

You never had to hide from me

I love the things they fear to see
