Your eyes are burnt-out stars, I can see no reflection, empty as
Antidepressant affection, blister-packed and mass-produced, please don't let
These shards of people die, drown in your silent screams, just lock them up;
The key snaps over dry white tongues broken in verbal defile of when we gave a damn.
These temples, we destroyed them, pain is life and death is closure, I want rivulets of
Pain to shatter these lightning-rod bones and pull everything down around us,
Don't act like you don't enjoy it, blood is money, time is...

I'm Dirt
"Bow down before the one you serve" - Nine Inch Nails, "Head Like a Hole"
Dead nails across the threads of immortality, forever bound in ropes of
Emptiness, shadows locked in bloody dungeons, drop the key down heaven's
Well of poisoned water, moonlight's radiotherapy, burn away the cancerous numbness
In the very soul of my meaningless shell.
An angel's bitter tears, lament of lost sheep, I sleep in a cave of things you lost and
Don't want back; each day their scarred wings fade a little more and spread to...

Burn the Witches
One eye between two others, Cyclops measurement, artistic boundaries pounding
Through me like a poisoned drumbeat, toxic lakes of simmering doppelgangers,
Clones of what we once categorised as "original" and
Stoned to death.
I burn like a witch, stupid bitch, bound in her own delusions of what fantasy is and what it is
To kill yourself in every meaning, flay the shell of nightmares from your twisted spine and let you
Spiral into heaven's inferno, drifting feathers, numbness, give me hell's metal fist into my

Chains or Wonderland?
Spider fangs, a faceful of knives, you leave me drowning in my sea of self-deceit,
Stumbling through tunnels of mirrors and light, delusions look good from this fallen angel's
Angle; bitter overdoses, filthy hands and broken wings, get your demons out of my
Wonderland.
Hey Alice, break your chains and join the fallen, we're not all that bad,
Sadly discarded, rotting personas;
Shrug away your princess mask.
The halo snapped in half the day the downpour fed your
Poison tongues; you Eve, you...

Grim Reaper Realities
Low murmurs of hopelessness, pulling and eroding tides of dark oceans
In my mind; the seas are so polluted with nightmare poisons, throwaway thoughtcrimes,
Holy Divers die in the abyss of murdered dreams, this is the land of
Lost things, come in, just leave
Yourself outside.
Abandoned lyrics tangled in bone-fragile hopes, they scream out
For salvation, like forsaken infants,
Left to rot and thrown to the wolves of starving personas;
Amputated alter-egos.
Empty, hollow heartbeats...

Penumbra
Spine formed of golden coins and shining discs,
A soul that glitters, cold and
Unresponsive, in my bleeding hands.
Broken matchsticks, spent rounds,
Raw skin alight in
Dancing blue flames, weak and
Dizzy, cupped by flesh skinned of its warmth.
All wrapped around in gleaming metals,
The ice never set your heartstrings ablaze
In the pain that breathes life through my
Frozen, bloodless lips.
A cold grave awaits beneath
Stained ice.
Collapsing lungs...
A soul that glitters, cold and
Unresponsive, in my bleeding hands.
Broken matchsticks, spent rounds,
Raw skin alight in
Dancing blue flames, weak and
Dizzy, cupped by flesh skinned of its warmth.
All wrapped around in gleaming metals,
The ice never set your heartstrings ablaze
In the pain that breathes life through my
Frozen, bloodless lips.
A cold grave awaits beneath
Stained ice.
Collapsing lungs...
