Sleeve

Do not show me affection or I will fall
Do not come over or text me or even call
My heart lives right here upon my sleeve
I always love you more whenever you leave
Slight attention makes me love you even more
Small words lap me like waves on a rough shore
Just a glance makes me fall in love with you again
Trying to catch your heart is like trying to grasp the wind
In my mind we love with passion like ancestral lovers do
In reality I am just someone that you enjoy talking to ...
Do not show me affection or I will fall
Do not come over or text me or even call
My heart lives right here upon my sleeve
I always love you more whenever you leave
Slight attention makes me love you even more
Small words lap me like waves on a rough shore
Just a glance makes me fall in love with you again
Trying to catch your heart is like trying to grasp the wind
In my mind we love with passion like ancestral lovers do
In reality I am just someone that you enjoy talking to ...

When Tears No Longer Fall
When Tears No Longer Fall
I try to cry but the tears just will not fall
I want to talk to you but you no longer call
When someone hurts you it hurts me worse
My eyes are now like a deserted thirst
I still feel the pain deep inside of my heart
Though I know you think of me not when we are apart
I wait by my phone but I never from you get a text
I wait for you to come to me but I am never next
My eyes burn like the sand on the desert floor
Just when I think I do not want to cry I want...
I try to cry but the tears just will not fall
I want to talk to you but you no longer call
When someone hurts you it hurts me worse
My eyes are now like a deserted thirst
I still feel the pain deep inside of my heart
Though I know you think of me not when we are apart
I wait by my phone but I never from you get a text
I wait for you to come to me but I am never next
My eyes burn like the sand on the desert floor
Just when I think I do not want to cry I want...

Cages
Cages
Broken loves throughout my ages
Pieces of my heart kept in cages
Used by others for me to be levered
My past and future I have severed
Fog of emptiness around me like confusion
I live my life wrapped in a blanket of delusion
Hide my crushed dreams beneath my pillow
Like the love that I long ago once did know
Love is just a masquerade of deception
Something of which I have no conception
So I walk among the trees of night shadows
With my feelings shattered...
Broken loves throughout my ages
Pieces of my heart kept in cages
Used by others for me to be levered
My past and future I have severed
Fog of emptiness around me like confusion
I live my life wrapped in a blanket of delusion
Hide my crushed dreams beneath my pillow
Like the love that I long ago once did know
Love is just a masquerade of deception
Something of which I have no conception
So I walk among the trees of night shadows
With my feelings shattered...

Life Of A Vampire
Life Of A Vampire
Just when I think everything is going good
Someone sticks my heart with a piece of wood
Life is not perfect and it never will be
That is no reason for everyone to blame me
Blood is not my type but I like mine to drain
It helps me be in control of my inside pain
Darkness follows my footsteps everywhere I go
Light is my enemy that I will never be able to know
I will just sleep alone in my dark box of dirt
Lost within my feelings of inner hurt
Just when I think everything is going good
Someone sticks my heart with a piece of wood
Life is not perfect and it never will be
That is no reason for everyone to blame me
Blood is not my type but I like mine to drain
It helps me be in control of my inside pain
Darkness follows my footsteps everywhere I go
Light is my enemy that I will never be able to know
I will just sleep alone in my dark box of dirt
Lost within my feelings of inner hurt

Life Beneath Me
Life Beneath Me
I am the last of the shadow that you cast
The lonely loser behind the smiley mask
I am slapped by the broken heart you trapped
The final pieces that you joyfully snapped
I am the low dirt that you constantly hurt
The remnants of your tattered throwaway skirt
I am beneath you like one worn out shoe
Thrown to the side and forgotten like morning dew
I am the last of the shadow that you cast
The lonely loser behind the smiley mask
I am slapped by the broken heart you trapped
The final pieces that you joyfully snapped
I am the low dirt that you constantly hurt
The remnants of your tattered throwaway skirt
I am beneath you like one worn out shoe
Thrown to the side and forgotten like morning dew

In A Deep Well I Cry
In A Deep Well I Cry
When I cry I always cry in a deep Well
That way there is no one who can ever tell
When water is drawn it is of the salty kind
Comes through my eyes from the pain in my mind
Hidden darkly inside the blended underground
In the abandoned Well no one can hear my wail sound
I try to glimpse a reflection of you in the water cold
Just like water your love and heart I am unable to hold
So leave me here broken in this Well hiding life away
The place where my ever...
When I cry I always cry in a deep Well
That way there is no one who can ever tell
When water is drawn it is of the salty kind
Comes through my eyes from the pain in my mind
Hidden darkly inside the blended underground
In the abandoned Well no one can hear my wail sound
I try to glimpse a reflection of you in the water cold
Just like water your love and heart I am unable to hold
So leave me here broken in this Well hiding life away

The Rabbit Hole
The Rabbit Hole
When love falls apart and goes down the rabbit hole
The place where what is left of your heart does go
What do I do with all of the broken scattered pieces?
Love may die suddenly but the pain never ceases
You try to make the best of whatever remains
As upon your lifeblood it does slowly drain
Surrounded by darkness capturing no light
Crying alone over nothing every single night
Feeling the heals of death breathing behind
Knotted by the memories of which you pine
...

Little Broken Cog
Little Broken Cog
I am just a little broken cog in your big wheel
At least that is how you always make me feel
A small grain of hidden sand on a crowded beach
Telling me that everything is out of my reach
An unseen speck of dust underneath your bed
A second thought you stumble upon in your head
Love to you is just an illusion you show my heart
A game that you play upon me like an ancient art
Just something you find on the bottom of your shoe
When your friends are around I am someone...
I am just a little broken cog in your big wheel
At least that is how you always make me feel
A small grain of hidden sand on a crowded beach
Telling me that everything is out of my reach
An unseen speck of dust underneath your bed
A second thought you stumble upon in your head
Love to you is just an illusion you show my heart
A game that you play upon me like an ancient art
Just something you find on the bottom of your shoe
When your friends are around I am someone...

This Moment
This Moment
To this moment I was led by trails from my past
Quick glimpses from my youth not meant to last
Stolen kisses and nights of love that have long gone
Of lost passions that were once sung of in ancient song
Ahead of me many mysteries are yet to be unfolding
Tempted to an empty bed with no one to beholding
Red ribbons twisting in her hair like a river with many bends
Lost within her heart with joy for a time that never ends
Draped in a mystic dream of constant pleasure unbound
...

Red ribbons twisting in her hair like a river with many bends

Blood Poison
Blood Poison
I have blood poison flowing in my bloodstream
Building nightmares out of my broken dreams
It comes from the pain within on my skin
It is traveling deep in my brain within
I try to get relief by draining it away
The more that leaves the more that stays
I can feel its effects that it is having on me
My body decaying into atomic insecurity
Be better off if I were to go away from this place
I know that no one would miss my face
I would never hear from anyone ever...

My body decaying into atomic insecurity
Be better off if I were to go away from this place

Abstract
Abstract
Trailing swarms of equal hungry bees
Flying through my soaked brain
Drain of blood from my scared wrist
So flows the backlashed pain
Floating dark clouds over my head
Venom filled scorpions sting my mind
A tortured soul full of unrested sleep
Lonely love never felt left all behind
Trailing swarms of equal hungry bees
Flying through my soaked brain
Drain of blood from my scared wrist
So flows the backlashed pain
Floating dark clouds over my head
Venom filled scorpions sting my mind
A tortured soul full of unrested sleep
Lonely love never felt left all behind
