I have nothing, don't I

Darling, Darling
Where are you, may I see you
Touch me, may I feel you
Please talk, may I hear you

Friend, friend
I am here, look upon me
I am here, feel upon me
Come to me, I await you

Darling, Darling
I see you, I cannot look
I feel you, I cannot touch
I cannot come, I have failed

Thing, Thing
Do not fear, come and dance with me
Do not fear, I extend my hand to you
Don't worry, for you can become what you see

Darling, Darling
I have failed; this is who I am
I have failed, death I deserve
Yet death, I fear, worthless I have become

Scum, scum
Then let me come, so you may become what you are
Then let me come, so I may embrace the failure of a shell you've become
For I shall come, so that your breath may end, and the stars will burn happier

Darling, Darling
That can't be, for I am nonexistent
That can't be, for no one cares enough to notice my presence
Then embrace me, hold me, apparition of death

Darling, Darling
Where are you, I cannot see you
Touch me, so that I may feel you
You've left, I see

Darling
For I have forsaken you, too
I lie here in this dark room
Holding your last gift to me

Hello, Hello
Someone see me, anyone, please look at me
Can you hear me, will you listen to me
No one, alone and forgotten

Death, can you embrace me
