forgotten-
Trapped in my imagined hell My distant heaven leaves me blind Drowned, though time, by my own hand But washed ashore on waves held high I feel reality closing in Shutting out my desperate cries No longer shielded by delusion Defenseless to your frozen eyes You have always been my loss An aching memory, painful still Always just beyond my reach One more way for looks to kill Pleading to the deadened skies Holding onto darkened smiles Promises shatter, far too late, Alone to walk the empty miles |
|
warrior-
I want to see your world aflame The fire screaming through your eyes Crimson fingers clawing madly Unearthing truth beneath the lies I want to hear your desperate pleas As fire scorches wasted skin I'll turn my deadened ears away Knowing you could never win I want to see your ashes scatter Swirling upwards towards the sun I'll smile into the shifting skies And know that finally you have won |
|
cycle-
Am I a child? Am I a whore? The drug that leaves you craving more? Well I'm a sickness, I'm desire But you're a fake and you're a liar You left me waiting Faded, frozen, Glitter falling from your eyes You said "Go on now, take the poison to live again first you must die" You stalk your demons Fever raging Aching to destroy the sun I said "I dare you, bleed a litte, come on now, show us how it's done" I always knew you'd take it back Your sticky candy grins I knew this time would be the last But this time no one wins. |
|
blinded-
The shadow of the cardboard moon Cast upon your open hand You wrap it up in my confusion Mistaken that you understand You stare defiantly at the sun Unimpressed by churning fire The image smolders in your eyes Is scorching heat what you desire? Inside of me, all over you Memory finds my hideaway I never let on, never broke down You've always been my yesterday |
|
resignation-
Disenchanted by my loss Running from destructive thoughts I'll close my mind to all the pain A hollow heart is all I'll gain Simmering in my wasted tears I'll crush the source of all my fears It shatters all that I believe Reality clashing with what I percieve Sucked into this realm of hate Could this be all there is to fate? As flimsy as my plastic lies I see the knowing in your eyes Spinning towards a total collapse Bound by rusting, fading, traps And if I have to die alone At least it's all I've ever known |
|
confined-
Hell on Earth, a stupid saying, Implying death will set us free Then what's the point of desperate praying If no one escapes eternity? When did I start to lose my way? Through the clouds I wander, hollow, Reaching out in misty grey, Never sure of who to follow. My wings are clipped, too bare to fly Trapped within your bitter smile You who would not, could not lie As you were lying all the while |
