Page 1, A darker piece. This needs a better title! Suggestions?

Sink your teeth in deeper,
Deeper.
Clench your fists up tighter,
Tighter.
Nothing I can say will,
Calm you.
Nothing I can do will,
Help you.

Bite a little harder as the blood
Begins to flow.
Cry a little harder—Where's your heart?
Oh, there it goes…

You have to run faster,
faster.
Do not let them catch you,
Catch you.
On the verge of epilepsy,
Nothing I can do will,
Help you.

Bite a little harder as the blood
Runs down your throat.
Cry a little harder—Where's your heart?
Oh, there it goes…
Try a little harder as the world's
Sucking you dry.
Don't you understand?  They don't care
If you cry.

Live a little longer,
Longer.
Beg and plea for Mercy,
Mercy.
Love has gone and left you,
Gorgeous.
Nothing I can do will,
Help you.

Nothing I can do will,
Help you.
Can't you see?  We're all doomed.
All doomed.
