"And Darkness and Decay and the Red Death held illimitable dominion overall." -- The Masque of the Red Death, Edgar Allan Poe


When you leave this place...
When you leave my embrace...
I will haunt your dreams.
I will follow you into every abyss, slowly driving you insane.
When you abandon me here, and I'm no longer myself,
You will remember me.

It was my nightmare, an inescapable thing.
It was a masterpiece, a horrible tragedy,
this thing we have, this "love."
I lived to love you,
I'd have died to love you,
and now I scream for you, but only deaf ears hear me.
You could have set me free,
and for that,
You will remember me.

You'll get this feeling inside your head,
this pressure, this presence, always nagging.
You thought you would forget, but I won't allow it.
You try to leave me, but don't move so quick.
I didn't suffer just so your mind could change like that.
You will remember me.

Like a cancerous cell attached to your lungs,
I will burden your breath.
Like an anvil tied to you in chains,
I will lengthen your steps.
As if I were fire in your house,
I will burn your skin.
You will remember me.

I won't let you forget the girl you left behind. The girl you left for dead.
