Slip me in an envelope seal me in safety put a stamp on and, address to anywhere I don't want to know And really do not care as long as no one Can see the inverted me.

Overwhelmed
There are weights on the stars at dawn; there is a shadow which lingers low upon the ground. Stars are ripped from heavenly setting; tugged and ripped from the night's sky. They sink only faster, chained by all which despairs. The weeping and heartbreak, bleak in unseen nations, are smothered by their unfueled fire. The stars; they seem bright tonight, but they come as squadroned foes. What peace they have and yet what shadowed cloaks they wear. Their mastery flows like the rushing river, and their watchful patient peace burn like fire upon the shore. and sill are let down, oh what shall they say now? The twinks that befall the earth...The stars...are bright tonight.

The Stars are Bright Tonight
This suicide and self-destruction. what I've done. I can't stop it. Help! Call the hospital put me in, put me on the table. I need Your heartbeat. I need Your blood. I need Your breath put in me. Let me die where I lie. Let me lie on the floor. Please nail me to the door. Turn out the lights. Bury me indeed so I cannot walk away. Bury me so I can get up and walk Your way. Let me live on the highway A life for all to see with Your heartbeat with Your blood with Your breath within me.

Bury Me
I could fall asleep with my lover. I could indulge him. He could make me cry out in the darkness. And fall silent as it settles in around me. Tonight I will make love to Shame. The one I’ve chosen to give my heart to.
