A Boy With Roses

Am I A Roman Emperor?

Enemy of sleep
First of my kind
Swallowing my pride
Like the sunrise
Eternally stranded

Hit me with a deepshot
I think I\'ve been here before
Waiting for the tide
Fucking a fleshlight
Flash of light
Thorn in my side
Flushing out my sickness
Kissing you is dangerous
But I like it

My mind in circles
Tethered to the lies
Between your teeth
The faucet pouring
An illustration of hope

I think I\'m beginning to come undone
I think I\'m beginning to understand this pulse
Lasso the moon
Oh, how the blood rushes 

Paradise is a colour
Decorated with driftwood and dull flames
Chained to bliss
A dynasty of divinity
Claiming this insatiable land
Soaking in the ashes of a sacred relic
Reduced to a fine powder
And here I am, a prodigal habit
Heavenward
On a throne of rapture.
