Baby I’ve got a new companion

Her name is Deepest Despair

Seems she came a long way to haunt me

But I don’t know from where

 I awoke one morning

And she was just standing there

 

She decides my movements

What I eat, where I sleep

She selects my wardrobe

And the company I keep

It’s her that keeps me from you

Although she is always discrete

She’s a possessive companion

She wants for her own

Every time I rale against her

Her eyes chill me to the bone

Me and my companion

I’m starting to think that’s all I need

She escorts me everywhere

At her shrivelled breast I feed

She won’t release me from her spell

No matter how much I plead
