IN REVERIE


In these fucking dreams
You’re grinning manically
Tragically, morbidly
Echo of your screams
Is slowly fading away
As you die in my arms

I will hold your body close to my chest tonight
As everything I’ve ever loved turns to dust
Bind your eyes to save you from unholy sight
In early hours before the dawn blood turns to rust

Bury you in an shallow grave
Unmarked but I recall your name
The last of tarnished memories
Lost forever in reverie

Spiders crawl across the misty forest floor
Spinning a silken crypt ‘round the last of you
Candles I left sputter from the wind swept shore
Like a trail from Heaven leading straight to the tomb

In these fucking dreams
I’m laughing manically
In agony, damnably
Speak my blasphemy
As I reach for the goblet
Filled to the rim with shame

Bury you in an shallow grave
Unmarked but I recall your name
The last of tarnished memories
Lost forever in reverie

When I look in the mirror I see a monster looking back at me
The focal point of paintings of moonlit moors and hanging trees
You are the spirit in my decanter that’s slowly drowning me
Every fucking memory is lost to eternity in reverie

YOU ARE LOST IN REVERIE

through the looking glass
i spy
magic of the past
dying
love lost to the abyss
those lips
i must have kissed

A THOUSAND TIMES


Fashion myself a coffin made of deadwood
To slumber forever next to the one I love
At the mourning hollow once from whence I stood
When once upon every night it is blood for blood

In these fucking dreams
You’re grinning manically
Tragically, morbidly
Echo of your screams
Is slowly fading away
As you die in my arms

Bury you in an shallow grave
Unmarked but I recall your name
The last of tarnished memories
Lost forever in reverie

When I look in the mirror I see a monster looking back at me
The focal point of paintings of moonlit moors and hanging trees
You are the spirit in my decanter that’s slowly drowning me
Every fucking memory is lost to eternity in reverie

YOU ARE

YOU ARE

lost in reverie
