Bound To Lose
Bound To Lose
Slender is my heart like knotted pine
Falling down stairs like drunken wine
I echo love words through her ears
They are sounds she does not want to hear
Sliced bread leave hidden scars of truth
Eaten happily in my distant youth
The crumbs now that are left behind
Slight nourishment for my mind
Falling Angels hitting hard ground
When they rise they make a devilish sound
Feel the heat in the desert Sunrise
Feel the cold in your brown eyes
...

Lonely Road
Lonely Road
Rows of empty trees line the lonely road
No leaves fall onto a ground that is cold
Deep pain runs rampantly through my veins
Drops on the ground sometimes like cold rain
Dark memories ransack my brain halls
The outside world saturate through my walls
Drooping flowers die upon the lonely road
No sun gets through the dark to let them grow
Surrounded by broken hearts never to mend
Love synapses that I can never send
Stars fall dead to the frozen ground
...

No sun gets through the dark to let them grow
Surrounded by broken hearts never to mend
Love synapses that I can never send

Red Divine
Red Divine
The red flows gently like a small stream
Turns my life like nightmare into a dream
Drops hit the floor like falling soft rain
Each taking away my deep silent pain
Like a red light flashing I cannot stop
I find divine inspiration in every drop
Tears mixing in with the deep dark red
Befitting the pain mixed with what you said
Drains out of me until I get dizzy and fall down
As in the red I slowly and ecstatically drown
The red flows gently like a small stream
Turns my life like nightmare into a dream
Drops hit the floor like falling soft rain
Each taking away my deep silent pain
Like a red light flashing I cannot stop
I find divine inspiration in every drop
Tears mixing in with the deep dark red
Befitting the pain mixed with what you said
Drains out of me until I get dizzy and fall down
As in the red I slowly and ecstatically drown

Cell
Cell
Every cell of my body every night cries out for you
Though I know it will never end I try to make it through
Imprisoned by the pieces of my heart that you left behind
Now the cell that surrounds me is breaking my mind
I will never be free to love again no matter how hard I try
The cell that holds me has rusted from the tears that I cry
Every cell of my body every night cries out for you
Though I know it will never end I try to make it through
Imprisoned by the pieces of my heart that you left behind
Now the cell that surrounds me is breaking my mind
I will never be free to love again no matter how hard I try
The cell that holds me has rusted from the tears that I cry

Already Dead
Already Dead
You treat me like I am already dead
You constantly put your doubt's in my head
You look at me like I am some kind of ghost
You are the one that can hurt me the most
Barbed wire wrapped around my wrist tattered
You took your love from me the only thing that mattered
The pieces of my heart are a play toy to you
You just break them more when you are through
Wrapped me in bandages and put me underground
My declaration of love is just an annoying sound
To you I am...
You treat me like I am already dead
You constantly put your doubt's in my head

You are the one that can hurt me the most

You took your love from me the only thing that mattered
The pieces of my heart are a play toy to you
You just break them more when you are through
Wrapped me in bandages and put me underground
My declaration of love is just an annoying sound
To you I am...

Wounded
Wounded
Without a look you wounded me deep in my heart
Just your words have a way of tearing me apart
It is not what you say that makes me grieve
Your tone is the microtome that makes me bleed
You talk to me like I do not know nothing at all
Your lack of feelings for me are my pall
I have been wounded and never will heal
Wounded from the words you never feel
Without a look you wounded me deep in my heart
Just your words have a way of tearing me apart
It is not what you say that makes me grieve
Your tone is the microtome that makes me bleed
You talk to me like I do not know nothing at all
Your lack of feelings for me are my pall
I have been wounded and never will heal
Wounded from the words you never feel

Tomb
Tomb
I was born in a tomb
I came dead from the womb
Born cold inside my heart
No love given from the start
Buried beneath my pain
My blood I try to drain
Incensed at the world around
Keep it away by being underground
Never see one ray of daylight
I keep my heart hidden out of sight
Buried beneath my internal gloom
Buried within my eternal tomb
I was born in a tomb
I came dead from the womb
Born cold inside my heart
No love given from the start
Buried beneath my pain
My blood I try to drain
Incensed at the world around
Keep it away by being underground
Never see one ray of daylight
I keep my heart hidden out of sight
Buried beneath my internal gloom
Buried within my eternal tomb

Ladder To Nowhere
Ladder To Nowhere
Climbing ever higher each time
Ever further to fall into decline
Rods of sanity broken true
Lies of deception from you
Thawing ice flooding streams
Invasion of water in my dreams
Salvation found in salivating
From distant images recreating
Half dragon and half cat met
Lofty goals of the Devil's pet
Searing love that is never found
Buried mere inches underground
Scratching nails to dig through
Break the bonds of external...

Hermetically Sealed
Hermetically Sealed
The coffins were already made
Prepared for the dying day
All set out in pretty rows
Where they came from no one one knows
Each one was carefully filled
Then each one was hermetically sealed
All of the weeds were rooted away
That way when it came the time of day
There was a cure for their unknown demise
Each one could wholly rise
To their loved ones they can go
To put on a zombie show
Where they will feast upon brains
To...

Isolation Booth
Isolation Booth
Each day I am feeling more and more isolated
From the day I was born my life has been ill-fated
People talk to me less and less all of the time
Friends are getting harder and harder to find
I find myself alone more and more every night
As I get further and further away from the light
It is getting scarce that I ever see anyone anymore
Like a ghost walking in this world seen less than before
Every day I hide myself away from the awful truth
I have locked myself away in...

Formication
Formication
Feels like bugs crawling beneath my skin
Think in my brain worms are digging in
I look but I see that nothing is there
I can feel the itching under my hair
Creepy crawly insects making their way
They are not there but I feel them anyway
They give me a really strange sensation
I think I have a bad case of formication
Feels like bugs crawling beneath my skin
Think in my brain worms are digging in
I look but I see that nothing is there
I can feel the itching under my hair
Creepy crawly insects making their way
They are not there but I feel them anyway
They give me a really strange sensation
I think I have a bad case of formication
