Skin by Skin

You're out alone You have no one The streets are cold Long gone the sun Shelter is yours Just come with me I mean no harm I just want to give you eternity Step through my door It's warm inside Ignore the stench Of rotting hides This room is now Your resting place Where first to start? Your hands or face? Skin by skin, you've been chosen Skin by skin, interwoven Know too late your time has come The knife is out, the blood does run Jugular, a blast of red Not soon enough you join the dead Skin by skin, you've been chosen Skin by skin, interwoven Sewn together with pieces past Eyeholes peering, mouth's vacant gasp Flesh stripped, meat aside, in fly swarmed mounds Screaming, flesh gone, teeth scattered around Intersected strips of gore Line the walls forevermore Pieced together methodically I lick the stitches as they bleed Skin by skin, you've been chosen Skin by skin, interwoven
