Mask

I keep my mask in the attic
to keep your eyes blind

Carved up and lacquered in crimson
I await you trembling in the night

Can you stay behind?
Can you stay behind?

My eyes are possessed by the moon
What I reach for inside of you

I keep my mask in the attic
as to not frighten you away

Superman

Systematic superman
Big blue eyes dressed up like peter pan.
Cinematic superman
He's gotta be fresh for his next big plan

Just fly away to greet another day
Least than your life won't be so shitty
Atomic ray, can't kill you today
So you stand and watch it burn the city

Mr. Megatomic superman
As you laugh we all cry out
Apocalyptic superman
Can we trust your word is devout?

Blind

My eyes feel like crying
whatever it is, you'll never know
My being feels like dying
but here I am still living though
I heard that you've been lying
by saying that I ran in shame

Now I'm blinded
the only one who can't see

I'm blinded...but
You're useless as a crutch
I'm blinded, so
I never needed much
Sadly I'm blinded...
and I still need your touch

I have no sight
Sightless but reliving
I've been blinded
and I'm not forgiving...

Quicksand

Sink like quicksand... I choke
Sorrow the depth - breathing...destruction
Hammer the walls, crying and screaming
No one hears - I can't breath

My ears bleed from screaming
Even while I'm sleeping - my precious one
I pray... murder my nightmares
Bring forth salt and salve - oh prodigal son

You grasped a soul without its freedom
From the depths of the desolate dead
Just rape all the horrors
Clean the fears from my head

Floating In The Breeze

As tranquil as the breeze
Like the colors of the leaves
Drank an everlasting spring
So peaceful... I could sing

Here I am...making sound
Lift my thoughts...off the ground

As tranquil as the breeze
All the colors on the trees
Enough confidence to see
To live and simply be

Here I stand... with no doubt
The final time...close this bout

A boy blazed in red
He's growing wings in his head
Realizing that he could fly
Straight into the fall sky

Frigid

I say hello
You say good bye
I wonder why...
So truth isn't as good as the lie?

Hey hello
So you ask the time of me
I say 3
Again you're cold as can be

Now you say hello
I say good bye
Im safe for now so I sigh
But now I just want to die

Burn

Last week was the last time
That I offered you praise

Should I try to catch your lies?
Your charm holds you high...but for how long?

What to do now that everyone knows?
When finally you found out yourself...

That your charm is like venom
And sadly we've all enjoyed your tongue

Oh beautiful serpentine...
With your soul of turpentine

Dark Light

I say...
Not today
But tonight
I see the light

I must be nimble
I must be quick
To overshadow you all
Before I become old and sick

I crawl
I sprawl
With all my might
To catch a glimpse of said light

I take a chance
To fill this mold
If I fall...
The story won't be told

Can't you see?
What I can be?
Prepare now for a fight
I'll shed my blood for the light!

Blank

Lithium is running my life
I enjoy my hot blood
I wanna be a plane
Just let me be insane

My face is oozing with despair
From all the stress
From how you undress
And even from nothing at all

I'm now a robot on stilts
Burning the wood to ash
Blackening my poor sight
With a bitter taste, noon and night

I'll blame you
For you possessed my heart
Beginning from the start
...as my kidneys begin to fail!!!

Stained Pages

You're a page master
I'm just a caged slave
How sad it is
That I deal with your rage

My heart is locked
I opened it for you
to train me in malevolence
In which you're a sage

I study your moves
as I mold your image
Using permanent ink
on a coffee stained page

Fishy

The funk of the fish
Sounds like an eloquent dance
...Oh how wrong you are
