Escaping hell lyrics critique - rock/metal

by Scott
(Caledonia, Michigan, USA)

some of the lyrics are a little dark so i apologize if this offends you. im writing lyrics for a metal/rock song that will more than likely have a medium-fast to fast tempo. im not sure all the words really fit into one song but i like what i have and dont really wanna break it into more than one and would like some other opinions on the lyrics in general and anything that might help to improve on whats there

Lyrics:

i dont need you
i dont love you anymore
i cant believe i wasted my time
you were just another harlot
you were only after money
now im out for blood

Chorus:
dying in my arms
your bleeding out inside my dreams
a crimson river
flowing from your mouth
muffling your screams
i have escaped from my own hell
escaped from my own hell
my own hell

i dont think you grasp
the gravity
of this situation
youve always been blind
to the obvious truth
you are destined to die
alone

hatred consumes me now
no longer am i
the child i was before
my vision
has been clouded by my lust
no more will you be my paramour

bridge:
taken over by my darker side
my nightmares become real
murdering your innocence
thriving on how it feels

nearing the surface
i grab for the edge
rising to life
im finally free to see
it was all an illusion
while i was escaping hell

Dude, I like it

yeah I see what you mean about it possibly not being all in one song, but I think it should work

couple changes??
it says about not grasping the gravity of the situation, and then you're destined to die alone... maybe it could be your destination is dying alone? That would rhyme

also in the chorus about 'my own hell', you could say something about her hell??

anyway love it dude, will be looking forward to hearing that on the radio in a few years, then downloading it and cheating you out of your money :)
