frontlinesee it draw closer, straight up ahead
this is the plain of the shadow of death
catch your breath, hold the sight
keep it close, here in your mind's eye  
push on ahead, never looking back
you fight to live and live for the fight
pick this up and run, you're the only ones
keep driving on, fight this thing until you've won
standing together, never backing down
this is the end and here we go now
sad clownYou say you only hear the sounds of madness
With a rare, soft, quietly spoken word of love
Agony, pain, depression, death and sadness
Are the voices of your world
You spin your webs and crooked lies
That I don't believe and can see behind
What they really are and pretend to be
Nothing more than a mask...a facade
To keep you safe from the hurt and pain
Duck around the walls to glimpse your soul
That part of it that you can't help but let me see
Don't push me away, loving you is where I want to be.
scattered piecesnumbness is the only feeling i have left
need someone to pick me up, don't let me fall
gather the shards of my heart that i've left behind
all my scattered pieces blown by the wind
i cannot heal wounds that are not my creation
i've deftly discovered the art of breaking
wasting time...they all tell me i'm just wasting my time
throwing my pearls before the swine
tell me i'm gonna be pushed away
you'll break me down and turn around
tell me not to even try lest i fall and break
that you're just waiting for your chance
to reach inside, take all of me, leaving nothing behind.
i say they're blind, i'll never push you away
they'll never see what i find in you that makes me want to stay
beware the story-book wolvesthe darkness creeps closer
the tendrils of sickly yellow light
wrap their fingers around consciousness
squeezing out the dregs of last emotions
trapped in the walls of the mind, never to escape
a presence of something taking over
its malevolent designs still unknown
wanting to break down, take over, control, and own
tears can't fall, stifled by terror and fear
choking on bitter bile that threatens to rise
dominated by horror, assaulted by strain
try to cast away the inner ghosts that ensnare
take captive every living thought and soul
a mind warped by tension and pain
beware the story-book wolves...
Comedy Of ErrorsHow it begins:
A hook,
A pull,
A grasp,
Suddenly, you are entranced.

Assaulting your senses,
Vivid description.

A climax,
A crunch,
A catastrophe,
Amazingly, here is the end.

A death,
A decline
Insanity, of course.

Affecting your emotions,
Lives played out on a page.

Isn't tragedy just a fatal comedy of errors?
passion and painPassion is now but strife just around the corner
Slinking closer, the tendrils of its presence precede it
The building tension peaks and I have to wonder
If the cataclysm of pain isn't the same as passion.
Tears, tears of anger dripping down my face
The rain of sweet love that's become twisted
Blood, the blue blood that flows red
That bleeds heavy and hot for you
Sweetest touches, slowly, lingering
Whispers of softness
Tearing through me, ripping me apart
Breaking my heart.
Never Coming Back    Her hair whipped around her face as she stood at the edge of the precipice, the gulls screaming above and the waves crashing below. There would be no turning back. This she knew.
  She turned slowly and made her way back to the path that wound down to the beach. Her past was gone, the present was fading, the future...well, the future held nothing but the gray haziness of pain. There had been passion. Once upon time; but no longer.
  He left her in her pain and her misery. When she needed him the most, he left, never coming back. She knew from the beginning that it wasn't going to last, but she tricked herself, deceived herself into
strickenfalling into this abyss of darkness
that surrounds me and grips me tight
haunted by all the demons of my inner mind
and by the ghosts of memories past
can't catch my balance, falling ever further
crippled by my fears and weaknesses.
see you walk in along in your suffering
but can't seem to push past the wall
of my terrors that control my mind
to be of any sort of angel to you
because i'm only human after all
the art of breakinglet me close, i'll pick you up
i promise i won't let you fall
building up your trust once again
believe me, it won't hurt at all.
i won't let you become what i've been before
if i have to watch you go through this one more time
i think i might just lose my mind
no one said it would be easy, this re-constructing,
but i'll be here to pull you out of the cold, stop the bleeding...
are you gonna run away, leave me alone?
stay here, let me heal the scars that cut so deep?
can i heal the wounds that i haven't created?
now listen close to what you will hear
for this is the sound of the art of breaking...
elusive dreamingJust a small-town girl
so lonely in this world
looking for love in the shadows
that the streetlights cast in the night.

Just a city boy
hope broken and destroyed
searching for love in the darkness
scared of the demons of his mind

Took a midnight train just to get away
from all the hurt, despair and pain
never thought they'd find what they were looking for
strangers together, hear the waves crash on the shore
dreams and thrills, ever elusive
now discovered, give a reason to live.
the last nightsee the scars on your wrist, pain in your eyes
smile a weak watery smile, cuz you've tried
to lie to me and hide the pain
i'll be everything and whatever you need me to be
this is the last night you'll spend alone
i'll hold you in my arms and never let you go.
dry the tears, open your eyes and see
this is the last night that you'll ever be away from me
echoesFloundering in the mire of lies
That accost my mind and soul
Silence screams the truth
But all I hear are the echoes.
stop timesand in glass
falling fast
take a breath
blink an eye
make a pause
its gone.
first time
fall in love
spin around
now stop.
the hauntedhallowed ground
death abounds
angels dare not tread.
fear abides
mortals hide
demon wings are spread.

wishingHear your voice on the other end
I waited for this time and can't pretend
That the sound of you doesn't send shivers up my spine
And my stomach is fluttering just like every other time
Could sit here for hours silently, just listening
Look out the window and see the stars in the sky glistening
Hear the sound of laughter and smile wistfully
Wish that I could be there, or you here, with me.
succumbHear your voice, my hands are shaking
Hope you know that when I say I love you that I'm not faking
We have to succumb to these feelings that we can never face
I need you, I want you, you're the only air in this empty space
I'm breathing in deeply trying to breath in all of you
And every drop of blood from my heart tells me that this love is true.
healingIt hurts to feel so very alive
A gradual pain that grows over time
It hurts but seems to be able to heal 
And it means so much to be able to feel

from yesterday

:iconbold-firedrake:

every face is a map of the world
that we've lived
intersections of lives
and crossing of lines
can't escape the fate
for its what you've made
and everything calls you back
from yesterday.
:iconbold-firedrake:
...

Through the blood he can look,
see the life that he took
From council of one
He'll decide when he's done with the innocent

On his face is a map of the world
A map of the world
On his face is a map of the world
A map of the world

From yesterday, it's coming!
From yesterday, the fear!
From yesterday, it calls him
But he doesn't want to read the message
He doesn't want to read the message
Doesn't want to read the message here
