You found me where the blackened candles burned,
I raised my eyes and watched your hunger turn.
One look, and all your careful control was gone,
The beast inside you recognised my song.
You tried to speak, but nothing left your mouth,
I smiled and pulled your buried darkness out.
I never cast the spell you thought you felt—
I only woke the fire beneath yourself.
Look in my eyes, let the fever begin,
Let every starving thing come crawling in.
I am the poison, I am the cure,
The sacred hunger you cannot endure.
Come to the altar, give me your flame,
Body to body, name into name.
No heaven above us, no hell below—
Only the place where the two become whole.
Gold into blood and shadow into light,
Two opposing forces married in the night.
Your hands went wild, your silence turned to need,
And I stood smiling at the thing I freed.
No trembling victim, no innocent disguise,
I wanted every darkness in your eyes.
You turned feral, but I pulled you near—
Your beautiful ruin was never mine to fear.
Look in my eyes, let the fever begin,
Let every starving thing come crawling in.
I am the poison, I am the cure,
The sacred hunger you cannot endure.
Come to the altar, give me your flame,
Body to body, name into name.
No heaven above us, no hell below—
Only the place where the two become whole.
Hieros gamos written in our skin,
Divine alchemy drawing us in.
You thought you fell beneath my control—
But I was the fire already in your soul.
Look in my eyes, let the fever begin,
Let every starving thing come crawling in.
I am the poison, I am the cure,
The sacred hunger you cannot endure.
Come to the altar, give me your flame,
Body to body, name into name.
No heaven above us, no hell below—
Only the place where the two become whole.
