†Black†
Black is the ash of what was once life
The lung of a smoker
Flesh rotting in the grave
The night sky lit by smiling stars
The dark clouds rolling in with the storm
The mask of fear over the world
A train derailing from the tracks
Loud tormented screams of agony
Chanting of believers in dim candle light
The piecing chill of ice running down your spine
The pull of your stitches when you try to open your mouth
The licorice that everyone despises even though it was first
The vengeance as it spills from your lips…
My heart…
†The Days†
I don't know
Is this just a cover up
So you don’t have to blame yourself?
Do you remember the days
When we used to play?
Do you remember the days
When we used to say
"I love you"?
Look at yourself
Look at us
Should I try to work this out?
I can't feel this way
Because it's your fault
Look at us now
Are you happy?
I try to talk
But you won't listen
Are you happy now?
†To Whom It May Concern†
I think of rage
I turn the page
I think of love
and there you are
†Come Sail With Me, Pirate† (I wrote this for my cousins' kids)
Come sail with me, Pirate,
And sing me a tune
of how the sea
reflects the moon.
Come laugh with me, Pirate,
at the stars far away.
So loud we can't hear
what they have to say.
Come watch with me, Pirate,
the descending sun
reflecting on the sea.
Sky and water are one.
Come sail with me, Pirate,
into this great abyss.
Roam the waters forever.
If not, blow me a kiss.
†No More Sweet Dreams† (song lyrics)
Immortal Gods
I crave noone else
I pray for no other but myself
I ask of you to give me power
Give me faith
I can devour
Punish you
I fear you
I Call you
You haunt me
No more sweet dreams tonight
As I sit here and fret
Evil spirits torture me
I wish for them to leave
They stay
They rape me
Immortal Gods
I crave noone else
I pray for no other but myself
I ask of you to give me power
Give me faith
I can devour
I punish you
I fear you
I Call you
You haunt me
No more sweet dreams tonight
No more
Immortal Gods
No more sweet dreams
Tonight
Sweet Dreams
