Escape into the night with swords made of words ...
I only want to talk with you, To walk and spend an hour with you. I only ask to see your smile, Love you for a little while.      But you say:      It's not your turn      To look for me,      Or listen to me breathe.      You will not touch;      I will not hear      The lie beneath the plea. It's not for you I ask these things, It's just my lonely disposition. My situation's getting tough, My demands are not so much.      But you say:      It's not your turn to stay awhile,      I am not some listless child.      Turn away you can't stay long,      Your love is prematurely born.      Go away. And now these days lag Like wounds, That will not heal or seal my pain. My need is more than I can endure.      Yet you say:         Offer some other church your money.      Call some other Mary honey.      Nail some other rightless wrong.      Offer some other girl your song.      Hoard it for the white-necked lay.      You know you cannot stay.      It's not your turn today.      It's not your turn.      Turn away.

Turn Away
You violate me with your delicious tenture, licking my soul with your words, making my skin tingle with the anticipation of your thoughts,   ******* me with your mind,   twisted obscurity in an ******** delight,   the cardinal remnants left trickling down my legs breathing obscenities in a heterophonic haze

Violator
Dig that finger right into the darkest recesses of your mind, push it, feel the pain, search through the darkness, watch it rain pull open that weeping wound push it touch the disease run for the shadows feel it ease

Push it
If I held out my hand would you take it ? it's warmth ready to permeate your soul but what would it tell you of me ? the scar on my finger the wrinkling skin the crooked pinkie the gnarl on my thumb stories to be told if you would only take hold.

Take my hand
There’s a devil in me trying to raise his face there’s a god in me trying to put him in his place a fight to fill the hole in my heart but the battle is lost before they can start soul electric, here to stay pulls me apart need to make them pay a million volts in a lightning kiss re-align my core in symmetrical bliss.

Soul electric
Sitting in a pool of **** other peoples **** **** all over me, I am nothing, just an object, a still life subject art school joke, I'm a mess, a **** stain, a fugitive on the run, running away from life.

Object
I keep replaying it in my head Like a broken record stuck on repeat, the expression you had when you looked at me and tears started streaming down your face. My heart twisted and cringed as every tear fell You pushed me away when I tried to console you "Get away from me." I was horrified with myself. The complete utter silence dispersed through the room   when you left me alone. You did that on purpose I think to let me torture myself with every thought that consumed me every little drop of hatred, running through my veins. Like poison seeping through my blood. Every second becoming more fatal every moment deteriorating my insides. Then the sky started crying each rain drop simotaneous with each tear rolling down my cheek. I despise myself for hurting you. I'm sorry.

Sliver raindrops fall, expressing feeling of lost, Our lips, hesitate, drifting apart, our last kiss, Where will you go? My ghost will wonder beside you, Tender touch, gentle caresses, carried away in the mist, Freeze this moment, stay a little longer, whispers the wind The soft breeze brushes her cheek; the moonlight shines your dancing eyes, I’ll see no more, The majestic tree cries after the distance, Looking at you, I’m jealous of the rain, I can’t hold you anymore, Walking away, I realize love doesn’t end. Firewalker

The End
The gorgeous girl She smiled at her friends Her parents never suspected That when she was alone In the silence of night The blade ran over her skin Drew blood from her body Thousands on thousands When one healed another formed Long sleeves and jackets His her pain And no one suspected a thing

Blade
It's 3 am. Again. I'm wide awake. There's no reason for you to haunt me And yet, the permanent ache residing in my chest is starting to feel normal. I've begun to forget the life I had before this. I'm hollowed out, my insides scraped away by everything and nothing at all. At night, I reminisce half-fantasying a life we never lived. And dully, I remember all the places our bodies met but never touched. My thoughts run away from me again. I think of you. I think of me. I think of us. No. There was never an us. Not really. There was always a space in between, So we'd never had to feel. And still, your departure has left me with a wound too deep to ever heal.
