look into my eyes
see who i really am
pause for a moment
stare
then you'll see my soul
     just a dark hole
     just a pool of salty waters

listen to my voice
hear what i have to say
pause for a moment
listen
then you'll know me well
     just a dark hole
     just a stone in the river

kiss my lips
feel the tremble
pause for a moment
taste
then you'll know me well
     just a dark hole
     just emptiness that brings ecstasy
