Take it away, the silence and pain.
Memories seep into fathoms of deep.
Nothing to give, nothing to make it stop.
Heart grown cold through tales of old.
Did you hear her pull the trigger?
Nothing I can do will fill the skeleton interior of a human grown taunt with a malnourished soul. Nothing but the shed skin of a snake to hide what scales still glimmer. Each pad of each finger pressures upon the shadow wall leaving a fading trail of ghostly white.
Don't try and bring me sunshine. I need the gray clouds and rain to wash the pain away. I need the wind to blow... and take me away. Though blind you all are to the nature in my eyes. An empty shell houses a storm. My flesh is the bark peeling away, reveling flush that only longs for the warmth that flows from your fingers. Yet I lay in darkness and for a moment I can feel you loving me.
I am slumberless... All I can see beneath the opal spheres are broken hopes and burned out dreams. Nothing brings peace within when turmoil surrounds inside. All I can do is continue to play huntress in my realm that choses when I can stalk my prey. Loosens my tongue unveiling a power I have only with words you can't hear. The fire within is an evil ice pixie... she is beautiful and everything you desire. What you desire is here already, you refuse to see. You are everything I desire.
Please don't tell me the truth anymore... though I am standing here its pushing me so far away. I want to hold a lie close to my heart, it can be my yew for now.
I wish I could turn it off. Make the darkness hide... make the pain into nothing but pleasure. Peel away the impurities and... nothing will though. Disillusionment... playing ambient in my head. The only think that will emerge from infant flesh are my crimson beasts. Running in circles around my legs, pulling you in and tilting you on your head... at least that is what is said. A map to the truth etched in breathing canvas. Memories seep into fathoms of deep... peachy shadows from nightmares creep. Metallic dances performed by ballerinas of porcelain. Bringing creation to destruction... but that is how the song goes. A heart grown cold through tales of old, a tarnished bronze once though as gold.
In the cold sky,
My past is trailing by.
Illusions sent me astray,
My chances gone,
I've lost you in the dark...
I've lost you through the years.
Yet in a strange way, I love what I have become.
Did you know my name?
My face a whithered frame...
I'm not what you have known.
