D.O.A.
D.O.A.
Prom Queen.
D.O.A. on the stage while accepting her crown.
Prom King.
Grieving over his queen.
Her pink gown now soiled by the filth on the floor.
Prom Queen.
Her need to be perfect was her death.
Her king.
Now has a new Queen.
Do you see, Your Highness?
Your death was in vain.

The Lonely Girl...
There was once a girl. She was always kind and caring. She took care of people and made them smile, no matter the cost to her. She hurt herself to make those around her happy. Only to have them leave her when they had recovered. She did not drink, she did not smoke, she did not give herself away. Instead, every night before she fell to slumber, she cut herself as she cried alone and sacred.
She wanted death; she longed for him. Walking through the grave, she was envious of the decaying dead.
“Want to trade?” She would ask them, receiving no reply.

How many days.....
A whole country seperates us, I'm to the east and you're to the west.
We barley get to see each other, but the times we did were the best.
You called on me late one night, while the others were sound asleep.
You pulled me into your office, sat in your chair and began to weep.
"Princess," you said through tears, "I love you with all my heart."
Frightened and worried I ask, "Dad, what's tearing you apart?"
You stood and held me tight, "I am going to tell you something sad.
Just know I love you and always will, and never forget the times we had. ...

A World Without Me.
Looking in through the window,
out in the rain.
They laugh and smile having fun,
no room for pain.
Life goes on without me,
no one casts a glance.
Nothing more than a whisper,
I never had a chance.
Mother and father are happy,
weeks without a fight.
School mates walk on,
they seem full of light.
A world without me is better,
they never needed me.
It's better for all of them,
they just never see.

Love or Pain.
Dark or light.
Wrong or right.
Head or tail
Lose or fail.
Me and you
I thought we were two.
Love or pain.
lose or gain.
One or two.
Fuck you, we're through!

Not here
Ears don't listen, eyes look away.
To keep their conscience clean and clear.
They don't try anything to make me stay.
I want my own ship of which I can steer.
For the few who hear, I will be okay.
To others, I am only the sickened deer.
But, not even you can make me stay.
The light is there, so close and near.
They will not cry, though you may.
They'll keep throwing parties, drinking beer.
I will not stay, no matter what you say.
You follow me everywhere but, please, not here.

Don't listen
Don't listen,
to the screaming and the crying.
Don't listen,
to the curses and the swears.
Don't listen,
to the smashing and the crashing.
Don't listen,
to the hitting and the beatings.
Don't listen,
to the bottles and the cans.
Don't listen,
to the pleading and the begging.
Cover your ears, little lamb,
to the yelling and the screaming.
Don't listen,
to the wails and the sirens.
Don't listen,
to the slamming and the smashing.
Don't listen, little one,
to the shots and the...

What I am...
In his eyes...
I am as translucent as glass.
And as clouded as crystal.
In his mind...
I am as solid as paper.
And as warm as ice.
In my eyes...
He was as vicious as a lamb.
And as cold as the sun.
In my mind...
He's as kind as a wolf.
And as loving as a spider.
In his grave...
He's as quiet as thunder.
And as forgotten as history.

Frozen
Time is frozen, all is still.
The world seems to have fallen ill.
It's calm and queit, everything is dead.
Time is frozen, and I have no tears to shed.
No sound, no movement, all is dead.
The silence is deafening in my head.
Every face I see is frozen in time.
Lost expressions forever mine.
The clock has stopped, all is still.
The world, it seems, has fallen ill.
Why am I in dark solitude here?
And why, why do I not shed one tear?

Fly (for a moment)
My head is clouded with hate.
I wish for what lies beyound the gate.
The edge is at my feet.
Though you may, I will not weep.
I'm falling from the sky.
The end will come, but for a moment I will fly.
I will sit on a lonely cloud.
And rip off this useless shrowd.
It's not the fall you fear.
It's the end that falls near.
The end came swift and fast.
I see the sail released from the mast.
Do not weep, do not cry.
Because for a moment I will fly.
Now, I'm here beyound the gate.
Here I...

Upon the Midnight Hour
Souls cry out and weep,
Upon the Midnight Hour.
I can never sleep
In the cold dark tower.
The light lies in wait
Until the day it may shine.
It bubbles and festers in hate,
This cold, dull blade forever mine.
In the dead of night I see
This cold blades need for blood.
The great gift that could be,
The joys of the flesh, stained with mud.
He comes invisible and silent,
As I lay awake in pain.
Death comes with a mind not bent.
I see, now, He is my bane.
Upon this Midnight Hour,
With a mind that will...
