Crystallised darkness of the heart
Go now, begone
You haunt me all too much
Go to the days end
Never before have I felt such
Crimson streams,
Sirens' screams,
Winter passing over,
Winter coming over.
I see you through the night,
There you are,
Fact, There is no one in sight,
Reflected from a star.
Gut busting, stomach clenching,
A sensation all too old,
In a perfect nightmare I am wrenching,
My fault for being none too bold.
Crimson streams,
Sirens' screams,
darkness coming over,
darkness taking over.
Until now you knew but I did not,
You were the dove,
Me, I always just wanted to feel,
like a child in love.
A no-strings relationship,
Innocent and care-free,
Now I'm in two minds,
Of how to act and who to be.
Guilt streams,
Rejection screams,
Fear taking over,
Fear has took over.
Jaded memories
In the sky, your head towards,
The clouds of black smoke,
Up from the factories,
Where the demons of new awoke...
The dark of the thunder,
The silence of lightening,
Left us empty,
Half but frightening.
The small strand of honesty,
The rich vein of deceit,
Mined of its worth,
By men who hide under sheets.
The drunkards are plentiful,
the cowards more so,
The barracks of disorder,
Ready to overflow.
Cast a line to the pond,
You wait and you linger,
To catch some of the folks below,
Line, hook and sinker.
Your head is troubled,
Full of grinding gears,
Grimacing with guilt,
Flailing amongst your fears.
Watch all your friends,
Through narrowed eyes,
Ready to blame,
Eager to dispise.
What then will you do,
With your life cast aside,
Go and make amends,
Or hold onto pride.
What you receive,
Is for hour vanity,
You'll lose your heart,
Then lose your sanity.
Don't you cry to me,
When your life falls apart,
Reveling in your rot,
Too late for another start.
Delight in dcine,
Connoisseur of misery,
As this is now,
No more than history.
The rest of us,
We'll someday join you,
Knowing something,
You never thought we knew.
