Love's Dagger

You were my love, but now it seems
You are the one who wounds me
Your icy touch tore me apart
My life now a tragedy

Why have you done this to me, love?
You've broken me completely
My soul has been ripped to pieces
And still you smile sweetly

Holding love's dagger in your hands
You've pierced my once beating heart
Now I'm left for dead and bleeding
The end of love, dying art




A Lover's Nightmare

I'm going out again
I think you know what for
My hand is cramped and sore
From holding my shotgun

And just before I left
I looked back at your face
The things I can't replace
And the things that I've done

We'll watch the setting sun
While I still live this crime
There is no time
To sleep

They say that love runs deep
Let's see how far it goes
Only hell knows
My name

Well we'll just play the game
Until we win or lose
Oh, will you choose
Me now?

We'll say goodnight
For the killing's just begun

The sun is coming up
As I walked in the door
Blood stained just like before
When you said I'm the one

But when I spill more blood
I just want you to know
You'll be the next to go
I'll do it just for fun

Please don't ask how or why
Because I can't explain
This constant pain
I feel

My burning heart won't heal
And through my icy veins
Black acid bane
Runs deep

Don't fall asleep, my love
Tonight I'll kill to gain
The right to be
Insane

We'll kiss goodbye
In this pouring blood and rain




Dark Lullaby

I lie awake on this cold night
As the ravens gently cry
And shadows softly sing to me
A sweet, dark lullaby

As I wait for the sleep to come
I hear the moonlight sigh
And still the shadows sing to me
That sweet, dark lullaby

In this beautiful nighttime bliss
I sleep and dream to fly

As shadows softly sing to me
My sweet, dark lullaby



Winter Heart

I die here today
In this cold, lonely winter
My skin tears away
And my bones crack and splinter
As snow starts to fall
Not as white, but as red
Voices gently call
To me; voices of the dead
"Do not yet give in!
Dear child, 'tis not your end!"
Then they touched my skin
And my form began to mend
Time has past since then
And though my body has healed
My heart's still frozen
My love still forever sealed


Love Never Dies

Behind these green eyes of mine
I hide my inner cries
Searching for a place or time
Where our love never dies

We always start out so strong
Through all the countless tries
Trying so hard to hold on
So our love never dies

Not wanting to be apart
Even with all the lies
But I know deep in my heart
That our love always dies



Innocence

My innocence
Left me here to burn
Gone forever
Never to return

Your innocence
Has kept me from you
Burying me
In this icy tomb

Sweet innocence
Won't you set us free?
Let us create
Our eternity



Heart of Darkness

In this heart of darkness
My love lies bleeding
Destroyed by all the hate
That I've been feeding
That's not what I wanted
And now I'm pleading
For a speck of hope in
This life I'm leading


Lunar Dance


Under the nighttime skies
She dances in glowing rays
Of the crisp full moon light
Moving in a Wiccan daze

Movements flow like water
As graceful as pleasant dreams
Swaying with the rhythm
Of the silvery moonbeams

When the moon starts to set
Her dance has come to an end
Patiently waiting for
The full moon to rise again




Haunted

Left alone with memories
Of times long gone
As I sit here in the dark
Hiding from dawn

Now I'm caged by my own past
Freedom won't come
Forgetting the pain I feel
I've turned so numb

Tears I've shed drown in my blood
And in despair
I can hear myself screaming
But I don't care




Why?

Flying on the wings of sorrow
Running like there's no tomorrow
Keeping what I had to borrow
Just so I wouldn't die

Wishing that I had stayed insane
Killing the loneliness in vain
Hating all the things that remain
To bleed me till I'm dry

Searching for a reason to fall
Grieving for the death of it all
Living just to be forced to crawl
But never asking why

Thank you. ^_^

Homeless

I’m on the outside looking in
The betrayal seeps through my skin
I’ve spent nights thinking of you all
And how you tried so hard to make me fall
I’m on the outside looking in
You don’t know the dark places I’ve been
Things used to be okay back then
Now it’s been hard just to breathe again
I’m on the outside looking in
Though I’d been there through thick and thin
I guess it just didn’t matter
And the thought makes my heart shatter



I Tried, So Why Didn't You?

I wouldn’t want to be you
Or do the things that you do
Why couldn’t you see
That I just want to be me?

Forget the things that I’ve said
They never stay in your head
Why couldn’t you stand
To just let go of my hand?

So now it’s over and done
Under the setting sun
Why couldn’t you say
Goodbye in the right way?
