Nobody Knows

 
She lives in the icy draft of the hollow
Stands tall in the deep and loves into
Shallow nightmares they creep and
Screams in the pillow as the paint's
Deep and weeping like willow she dance
In the dark like a silhouette burns
Through the evening like a cigarette
Tally's up a wrist and attempt to forget
But not one cut with his deepest regret

Heart locked in a pretty box ribbon
Cages beauty over shadow by the beast
That rages an open book of empty pages
She wears one mask with all the faces
Got the kiss of a pistol let the bullets
Fly then leaves it for the fall in the
Autumn sky wheels like a petal now on
The dust to settle she more rust than
Metal now as the dream runs dry.

No body knows
What it takes to mend her
She don't like the cold
But she snows like December
She loves like winter
Burns out like tinder
A reckless sinner
Shes smoke and cinder
No body knows
What it takes to mend her

A beautiful monster and six-inch
Stilettos sing a sad song play to stuff
Like a cello starry eyes and she gays
Hair spun in morello she is the glass in
The mirror and the smoke is the billows
She worships her scars on the altar of
Abyss the siren and the captain of an
Abandoned ship she grasped to her
Wreckage hope fades on a whisp

Can't stand the bitter taste of lies on her
Lips if she cried you a river you would
Drown in the Nile head above water she's
Trying to denial even a broken is broken
And scattered for miles she continues on Breaking while faking a smile one foot
In the grave and a head in the clouds
Don't believe in god but for heaven come
Down she's prone to violence when
There's no one around cause don't you know
That silence is the loneliest sound

No body knows
What it takes to mend her
She don't like the cold
But she snows like December
She loves like winter
Burns out like tinder
A reckless sinner
Shes smoke and cinder
No body knows
What it takes to mend her
