midnight's children
Dressed in black
wild in the darkness
for in the shadows
we are free
cursed by the world
for we are different
we are midnight's children
please let us be
Jet black eyes
painted fiercely
razor cuts
from failed escape
skin so pale
looking ghostly
just stay away
and keep your hate
Razor blades
dipped in crimson
cutting scars
no lasting pain
dark in heart
filled with passion
say what you want
we share your fate.

Dark Reflection
The horrors of reflection
fear and loathing in ones eyes
a curse born out of deception
built by the cruel to terrorize
Hidden truths beyond protection
a mirror image that i despise
far beyond the realm of correction
this monster designed for my demise
Standing tall with no perception
tortured screams that fortifies
the pain of sorrow is my infection
a cursed sight to visualize.

lost and alone
I wake every morning
lost and alone
sweating my tears
shivering down to the bone
and all i see
it just wont let me be
are the memories
And my soul has died
without you by my side
I wake every morning
lost and alone
i lay here for hours
wishing you would pick up the phone
dying inside
and knowing i tried
to save you
Now my soul has died
without you by my side
I wake every morning
lost and alone
reaching for you
only to find that you have flown
try as i might
i have no more...
lost and alone
sweating my tears
shivering down to the bone
and all i see
it just wont let me be
are the memories
And my soul has died
without you by my side
I wake every morning
lost and alone
i lay here for hours
wishing you would pick up the phone
dying inside
and knowing i tried
to save you
Now my soul has died
without you by my side
I wake every morning
lost and alone
reaching for you
only to find that you have flown
try as i might
i have no more...

Behind the shields
My invisible shield
it's all you will see
ice cold and hard
never to be prised free
Shamefully grown
from painful milestones
of my past
Pressed behind the shields
of my very own mask
All my raw feelings
are kept from the light
forced into shadows
locked up safe and tight
hidden away
never to display
all my fears
Pressed behind my shields
and drowned with my tears
Now i grow old
all i know is this mask
a horrid defence
thats grown more than i asked
and what...
it's all you will see
ice cold and hard
never to be prised free
Shamefully grown
from painful milestones

Pressed behind the shields

forced into shadows
locked up safe and tight
hidden away
never to display
all my fears
Pressed behind my shields
and drowned with my tears

sleepless
my head weighs on this concrete pillow
my body lays on a bed of nails
soft comfort has become so alien
all my efforts of sleep have failed
Need some sleep
please just sleep
dreams are what i need
restless as i fight my duvet
my mind continues to explode into song
tired of thoughts that keep on racing
shattered dreams are now all but gone
Need some sleep
please just sleep
dreams are what i need
Days blurring into subconscious
autopilot is now wearing down
fear and loathing of my pillow
i am heading for...
my body lays on a bed of nails
soft comfort has become so alien
all my efforts of sleep have failed
Need some sleep

restless as i fight my duvet
my mind continues to explode into song
tired of thoughts that keep on racing
shattered dreams are now all but gone
Need some sleep
please just sleep

autopilot is now wearing down

Abyss of all my fears
The ridge falls sheer
shards of sharp black glass
flashing sporadic visions
reflections of my past
abyss of all my fears
faded dreams imprisoned
locked away and hidden
mauled and badly bitten
in a smoke that never clears
lost and in the darkness
in awe of it's vastness
and living with the nightmare
of being judged by all my peers
shards of sharp black glass
flashing sporadic visions
reflections of my past
abyss of all my fears
faded dreams imprisoned
locked away and hidden
mauled and badly bitten
in a smoke that never clears
lost and in the darkness
in awe of it's vastness
and living with the nightmare
of being judged by all my peers

British summer
Dark clouds roll across the hills
prelude for the soaking rain
streams of air feeding the chills
the british summer strikes it's fame
Mist envelopes village holds
eerie shadows scar fading light
setting the scene for stories told
of myths and legends born to fright
Church bells echo through the valley
faintly heard through beating rain
windswept trees sway all hammy
with whistling sounds of old arcane
Endless days of rain in summer
helps define our weathered souls
wrapped up warm in nights of...

Dark days
Were all going to burn
It's a painful lesson
that we have yet to learn
Were falling into a hole
that's a bottomless pit
a world where we owe
it's going to be shit
No jobs
no food
no life
no laughter
no joy just strife
Political slogans of welcome to hell
no more weak human emotions
for this is hard sell
Sign up now
sell your soul
give up your rights
you will know your roll
And as you huddle for warmth
with your family and friends
asking the queston
is this how it all ends...

Dark City
Faceless shadows roam the streets
looting light as it secretes
starved of love
cold and alone
the distasteful groaning that they drone
Dirty secrets adorn the walls
hollow laughter fills the halls
hope is lost
truth in defeat
kept in line by fear and deceit
Painted people selling souls
desperation and escape maybe their goals
grime and lust
the physical drain
taking the road of knowing no shame
Pinstripe suits playing god
over paid and extremely odd
slick with image
slaves to greed ...

Book of shadow
Arcane script fill my leafs
dark intentions in such beliefs
within me is your hearts desire
burning passions and ritural fire
but in return there is a cost
a small sacrifice for something lost
A piece of your soul i will keep
nothing compared to the power i reap
sinister illusions and magical spells
powerful visions of the gates of hell
All these things you may find in me
if you know the words then you will see
keep me safe for i am old and rare
in secret study me if you dare
In another tounge im called the grand grimoire...

Madness in motion
It's dark and very cold
and this is my story
now i am twisted and old
As the blistering rain
soaks the ground
drowning the sorrow
of all i have found
The hell of emotions
the powers that be
the crying of oceans
that nobody can see
Lost in the darkness
there is never a way out
finding such harshness
there is no reasonable doubt
Damaged and frightened
cursed and alone
used and abused
worn down to the bone
Madness in motion
it's never been kind
trapped in this ocean
out of one's...
