Her eyes droop so low, so low to the ground
When the accordion plays

All her dreams are left untouched, but not defined
When the accordion plays

She clings to the ground, holding on tight
When the accordion plays

Nothing disturbs the accordance of the scene
The girl is untouched, but not defined

Her mouth painfully sighs, so loud, yet so soft
When the accordion plays

All her past lives, come back to life
When the accordion plays

She turns on her back, lifeless
When the accordion plays

Nothing disturbs the accordance of the scene-
Except for the girl’s past lives coming back to life

An essence shows it is strong
even when it is wrong
but we just follow along
and pretend we know that it's alright

An essence shows it is alluring
even when it is boring
but we just follow along
and pretend we know best

Beware the truth that lies
Even beneath the deepest of eyes
Because there always rests an essence
One that you may not be able to hide

The doors creak to remind me you’re here

I can’t escape, I can only run to nowhere

If I try to hide, I’ll drive myself insane

If I show up for you, It won’t be the same



The doors creak to remind me you’re here

The air is different, filled with smoke

I can hardly see, hardly breathe

This is truly a nightmare I feel

The storm so quickly came and went
But it left me with some thoughts
Some feelings
Sprouting alive so that I too
Can enjoy the world
Even tomorrow,
A Sunday morning...

the insensitivity of the keys glide through my soul and into my desires

what I cannot say, will not aspire

will it hide me from my freedom?

or set me beyond the blaze far away in an unknown place?

I hear the banshees cry
They bring in such a state of mind
In the middle of the night
Belonging to blissful release
Not so much sorrow

I hear the banshee's cry
It is a surprise
But one I will accept
Screeching alongside
My past

Only in a state in between my dreams and consciousness
Do you cross my mind
Yet in those moments
My heart craves what has passed the most

The state where the soul is exposed
Grasping onto the mirage
Moments before the dreams unravel
And a new world begin
Is when I think of you.

What if she used Him
So she could feel something
But the violent end
Came far too soon than
Anticipated
And He was the last one
Who would hear from Her
On a sentimental, seemingly
Manner

Can remember me
And the things that symbolized
What we danced through
Before times would fall upon us

You can hide in the dark,
but I withhold night vision.

You can say words that make no sense,
but I can translate it all.

I see you, but seeing you is not enough
to live our such a glorious dream.

They can say it all but what do they really mean?

It can all be understood,
but somehow it's not.

Today the cool breeze
Turns into rapid wind
Blowing air over the world
To ease the pain from yesterday

Sharp pain dulls the heart
And fire burns away hope
Helplessness and fear
Consume the souls of many
As dread drags on

But today the cool breeze
Turns into a rapid wind
To put to sleep
The agonizing sorrow

When I open my eyes wide
I’ll reach out down there
And as I flash you a gleam
I want you to sing
That sweet, sweet melody

I dance all alone,
In my castle on my own
While I lose myself in
That sweet, sweet rhythm

When arises the lune
I look down to you
And fall in love yet again
With that sweet, sweet tune

Comfortable with fright
I depend on your song
To bring me back to life
My dearest, Children of the Night

Why did she choose me?

Why did she choose me
Her piercing screams
Grow too intense
For the fragility of my ears

Her soft look deceives
What is really up her sleeves
All she wants is
Destruction
And I am in her path

She chose me

The church bells awaken your deepest doubt

They sing to you with torment

They taunt you - there's no way out

They've found you asleep in your chamber

Your doubts are not so unconscious now

The church bells are here
There is no escape

Names will be said,
words exchanged, and laughs protected
But eyes will stay locked in the mind
and remain over-protected.

Ever so wishes to get across,
would be mildly hard to even start.

Oh, the frustration and sighing grief-
Oh how uncanny the feelings run deep.

What would it take to live forever-
with nothing but bliss?

Dream after dream, this desire will dismiss.

I look around to see but all I see is what I want

And what I want is not enough
It won't carry me to where I desire to go

What I would like to face,

Yet nothing is in everything and as the end draws near,
all I can see is what I want

Smokey whispers awaken my spirit
In the middle of the night

A somber hope arises in the atmosphere
In the middle of unconsciousness

Dainty aspirations reach out
As I pull them in

The fear is obsolete
Despair is no longer mine

I give in sans contemplation
And I fly high
Into darkness

It occurs at midnight
When the world is dark
And quiet
All you can hear is your own
Sincere weep for escape

But the truth is
That once you have been
Held ahold by the night
There is no way back
When the alluring effect
Consumes your mind

Can anyone really win?
Does anyone actually try?

She drags her feet effortlessly up the
shining steps

Lifting her higher
and closer to regret

How does such an entity within have so much
grace,
yet seem so corrupt with power?

If there is something deeper,
deep within then perhaps the gates
should open
letting the river flow in

Or perhaps she shall retrace her steps
and fall back on what she knew
and relearn
how to live it

They are all upon us lying deep underground
However their ears remain open above

Their eyes watch as we make our way through the green garden
The garden is fresh with blooming plants and flowers

It symbolizes all that they can't have
They've wasted it away to death

Our realities of dreams are agonizing reminders
For what they can't have

Bring me a dream
Of lavender and cream
As I fade away in
The childhood screams

I’ll take thee away
Where I too love to stay
Yet I chase my pleasure
To the end of my way

Follow me to a new world
Of tragic spells of magic
We haven’t any want
Rather a suspicious bond
Of hateful love for youth

Thank you

For leading me
From darkness
From hopelessness
And into
A lit-up room
With beauty
And splendor

For so long
Yet too little
I've been saved
Each day
Of each year
And I am grateful
Not only today
But tomorrow as well
For being there
And giving me
All the things
To be grateful

Was what he couldn't get?

Losing grip of my own hand
As the long road pops up ahead
The sky is misty
The wind is windy
I can barely use sense
When it comes to something this intense

The fact of my own disappearance
From myself
Makes it incredibly easy
For those rather ******
To use me

I own my own vulnerability
And I must say
I am very vulnerable
