Rivers Run Red
Scarred, You Left Me
In depths of my despair, only devils wait for me
Tortured by own self pity, Rivers of red escaping me
Fooled no more, your lies beseech you
Forgiveness, a luxury afforded me not
Staright edges, stained by my own ignorrance
No more Love lost, Freed from chains of innocence
Time escapes me, I fear They will come for me now
Surrounded, my demons call to me
The time has come, Was I expected to see?
My fate, my thoughts turn to mist now
My cards, all folded, this torment, Escape how?
Cry no tears for me, my last...

Going Home
I. FED UP
Let's call it quits, Here's the keys to the car
I can't believe we stuck it out this far
I tried to tell you, too fucking blind to see
Now 10 years later, This HELL our reality
No more looking back, this time you'll see
You'll cry out my name, turn around, but no where I'll be
For all You're Rights and all My wrongs,
This shit is over, this time I'm gone
There are memories that I never want to lose
When I look in The Mirror, I still See You
You were always there, my wounds yours to mend,
Through thickest and thin, My...

I AM YOU
I remain locked in shadows ofPain, and am forever Confined by a wall of glass, I watch as we Both Despair
Tormented by a loneliness, no one sees, no one cares
to watch is even more painfull, forI, control nothing, only reflect what is hidden
Chained to a wall, only to wait for you to smash it
as shards of glass and blood crash to these floors of marble andstone,
i am released, only to be locked behind a new wall of glass
tonite you stared at me and asked me "who the fuck are you?"
well, i am, butonly, thereflection of yourself in the mirror...

Last Romance
Swimming on the seas of Hell,
Surfing its tides of pain
Chains and hooks are stowed on me
I look up as i see the rain
The skies crack open, as a soul makes its fall
A creature of beauty and torture, am I really in Hell at all?
For this woman of pain is an Angel
an Angel, I'd thought, only Heaven would see
I turn around, crash to the waters, as she's calling out to me
"Where am I?" she asks, and i wonder what what i should say
For now, she has died, and to Hell, she has fallen, yet in my arms she lays
I wipe her tears,...

My Abyss
The door slams, hooks pierce my flesh
Screams arise, alone i embrace death
She calls to me, "Child you alone brought yourself to this end"
In agony and torment i hear a whisper, "Come with me"
I see my demons approaching ready to score more flesh
Please no more, i cry, i plead, i hold my breath
Her hand grasps mine, "Come with us"
The path curves to the left
A light off to the right blinds me
she cries out"Turn from the light to the dark and you'll find me"
My demons chasing, my heart racing
I long...
