Possession

Even a gas station is a beacon in the starless darkness. I am in fragments again. Bear me to Arcadia.  

All that I want is a grave 
What I pursue possesses me 
Death by desire, what a destiny!
What I pursue possesses me
Life is the longest corridor 
Who can I survive? 

Desire I fear I am a careless being
This is better than the fires of eternity
Come burn in desire with me 

Days of carnage
The radiance of your eyes on fire
Takes me away to Arcadia 

What I pursue possesses me
I'm a careless being 
Screaming your name in the evening

I'll carry you to the grave of wanting 
This existence is a fever dream
Come burn in desire with me
Daughter of cataclysms, I awaken to flames
I’m a careless Being
I walked across dark waters
and I came back changed
All that I want is a grave
Desire the Arcadia of Being
When you witness me you revive me

I wanted you to save me 
I wanted wanting to save me 

It's better than eternity 
Come burn in desire with me 
When you witnessed me I became a careless being

Again we are chasing radiances 
I can’t survive another sunrise
Do not let that dawn break the darkness of my midnight   

In the monastic moonlight, I am made in your gaze 
You who pursues me, possess me 
The eternal return of desire: like a phoenix there is resurrection fire in my fingertips, and I witnessed the end beginning again with desire —
The injuries! the injuries! of the void! 

Insomnia strikes me in the shores of moonlight 
Possess me, I am ensorcelled by desire

These are the dark ages but the stars still tessellate
Who can survive these fevers! of existence!
I witnessed moonrise on the roadside 
Desire burned like vengeance of the void in me 

Who do I witness who first witnesses me?
The clarity of grief! I sank into deep dreams
What I pursue possesses me
Like the sunlight at the sill I was splintered but surviving
I vanished in so vivid a void 
When desire possessed me
The universes are Adamantine
I was a careless being witnessing your majesty 
Desire and its crusades, I am made in your gaze
Fragmented, I chased that momentary radiance 

When the night winds arrived I vanished in so vivid a void 
Sleepless evenings, I survived another fiery sunrise
Death by desire, what a destiny
We were wild ones in the wings of greater Beings 
This is the reckoning, mortality
What I pursue possesses me
