InTheVoid Just pieces of my mind
Still haven’t learned to properly play human The mask still feels foreign (my face) The skin forced, sewn on me, like a makeshift puppet The moves are pain to learn Agonizing to perform Constantly tripping over my feet And messing up the lines I’m supposed to say And after the show is done The audience is still not pleased Always unsatisfied Maybe they can see through the façade (surely not, I’ve put so much blood and sweat and….) Or maybe this never was going to be enough (Even if I was real) Regardless The show must go on So adorn your porcelain mask again And play Until there’s nothing left of you to feel the pain

Copycat A smile A look Memorize the colorless dances Break your different bones to dust Unless you'd like a taste Of even bitter pain (if there is one) Now I learned To be your doppelganger Will you let me in the crowd?

Doppelganger
You always waited for the moment When the wind will come And take you away Like a paper crane Gently dancing with the breeze Flying far, far from me You couldn't see The tear on my cheek But it's okay It will dry And maybe someday I to will learn how to fly

Paper Crane
My blood is an obsidian color I bleed words on paper Prisoner to my mind for eternity Ink stains branded on my heart

Ink Stains
Swirls of smoke In the air Remind me of your scent A smell I hated so much Now it has become my oxygen

Cigarette Smoke
Hiding behind a smile A girl with a glass heart Too many cracks it has Too many times she cut herself on it

Glass Heart
Ashes from my bones buried underneath the ground, acting as a soil for magnificent flowers. Crow's cry far in the distance, air soaked with dense feeling of death. The scenery - masterpiece of pain and dread. Here feelings bleed, Watering the ground with tears. The lonely moon is the only witness. Ah, who knows I existed?
