Snippet
I could cry a for a thousand years But I'll just cry a thousand tears And hope you'll come back to me soon...
The Secrets Were Spilling at the Seams
It doesn't seem to matter It doesn't seem to work And no one seems to care No matter how you hurt...
The wallflower is dead As she clings to the wall Now her heart's made of lead And she can't help but to fall
But it doesn't matter And it really won't work To try to revive her No matter what she hurt
'Cause we're all breaking Down deep inside The whole world is shaking 'Cause of what we try to hide.

Living Isn't Being Alive...
You thought you were dead. Didn't realise, 'til they shot you in the head That living isn't really life That bloodshed is a willing wife.
When your soul is breaking The sun still smiles, When your heart is flaking From all those trials.
And it's a cold world When wrapped inside, snow keeps you furled, Calling to the icy tide To take you out for one last ride.
And you try to plead And you try to beg But pain was freed And hope left dead.
But bloodshed is a willing wife She keeps you still, while she holds the knife. So she cuts the line; Your blood spills like wine-
But how'd you know if you're dead When living isn't being alive. When everything your mother said Was when life did not deprive-
But bloodshed is a willing wife She stabs you 'til your blood is rife Dripping off the pantry knife Spelling out the end of 'life'.
Her heart is lead Her eyes are black She wants you dead So have a heart attack.
You thought you were already dead 'Til they shot you in the head And made you see, for the first time, Where before your sight was filled with grime, That living isn't being alive. |
Alas, it was not always so?
Deep red poppies grow By bubbling silver streams, Golden sunlight creeps low, Fair lambs in pure dreams Alas, not always so; Littered streets and alleyways green, Benches and parks insatiably abused, Burglars and snatchers escape unseen Police watch unamused; Alas, not serene. Cream-white clouds softly float, Beaches calm in silver light, Old, oaken and proud sails the boat, Something fresh, living green and bright, Alas, not afloat, Countryside slowly fading, Blaring horns are a common sound, Smoke filled buildings shading The beautiful land around, Alas, it is raiding, The beautiful North Yorkshire Where honeysuckle flows And looks for garden hire, The sleek green and blacks of crows Don't spread towns like fire. Alas, it was not always so...
Messed up
Feeling like disappearing;
What more can I say?
Isn't it obvious;
You hate me anyway?
My head's in a mess.
My tail's in a spin.
Wanting more, giving less -
Why'd I let him in?
Breathing hurts, damage done,
Leave me all alone
You've had your fun
What is this joke?
This foolish life?
Where ruling nations
Fail from strife?
And the stuff on my lips...
What does it say?
I'm not bleeding again for you
No... not today
And you don't give up
You see it through
You take that cup
Drink witches brew
Spider's Web
Crystaline threads of silver light Weaved webs of midnight delight They dance amongst the boughs and leaves Spinning threads and darning their weaves.
Disjointment
You hold yourself still. So it's no longer felt. Until you kill yourself. Inside. But all it does is wreck your heart. And hurt your head And make you wish that you were dead. I creeps in and steals your soul, Scars your sight and burns a hole Right through 'til you can take no more, 'Til you think it Nature's law. |
