joseph - Hello Poetry

Trying so hard to numb the pain Pick apart the horrid hallucination Blood diluted by tears, falling like rain Build the fragile walls of zion Gilded paths strewn with broken memories Penance paid, and I'll surely burn Inflicted with this deceitful disease All that's left is an empty urn Upon a forgotten shelf, in your empty heart My breath stirs a dead breeze In the empty gardens of the souls rampart Emotions twirled like leaves on trees Pallid clouds against a moonlit backdrop Silver shards paint the tattered scene Seated in the mind, on a barren hilltop Luminescence makes the pain gleam As the village below so sweetly slumbers It's guardian watches from darkened beauty As the demon increasingly slaughters her numbers Within city walls, lays the destroyed sanity

The Village

Trying so hard to numb the pain Pick apart the horrid hallucination Blood diluted by tears, falling like rain Build the fragile walls of zion Gilded paths strewn with broken memories Penance paid, and I'll surely burn Inflicted with this deceitful disease All that's left is an empty urn Upon a forgotten shelf, in your empty heart My breath stirs a dead breeze In the empty gardens of the souls rampart Emotions twirled like leaves on trees Pallid clouds against a moonlit backdrop Silver shards paint the tattered scene Seated in the mind, on a barren hilltop Luminescence makes the pain gleam As the village below so sweetly slumbers It's guardian watches from darkened beauty As the demon increasingly slaughters her numbers Within city walls, lays the destroyed sanity

What's left of me Is all in piece's As the voice's grow louder The pain never ceases Watch your step Wouldn't want you to bleed Get stains on the carpet Just follow my lead I'll guide you through All of my insanity The tour begins Right here, inside of me We'll begin with the heart It look's a little bare Didn't have time to decorate I don't often dwell there Moving on now Next stop my mind Sure you want to go Never know what you'll find Here it is My own personal maze The only way out Is to follow the haze You can't go in It's under construction From the last time I suffered mental destruction One stop left On this tour from hell Stop at the gift shop We have lot's of **** to sell If you look to the right You'll see the grand creation Can you feel the sorrow Created by self-mutilation We'll exit through the veins In our crimson ride This attraction is closed Because our host has died

Tour

What's left of me Is all in piece's As the voice's grow louder The pain never ceases Watch your step Wouldn't want you to bleed Get stains on the carpet Just follow my lead I'll guide you through All of my insanity The tour begins Right here, inside of me We'll begin with the heart It look's a little bare Didn't have time to decorate I don't often dwell there Moving on now Next stop my mind Sure you want to go Never know what you'll find Here it is My own personal maze The only way out Is to follow the haze You can't go in It's under construction From the last time I suffered mental destruction One stop left On this tour from hell Stop at the gift shop We have lot's of **** to sell If you look to the right You'll see the grand creation Can you feel the sorrow Created by self-mutilation We'll exit through the veins In our crimson ride This attraction is closed Because our host has died

What could make a world so cold That it prevents a heart from being bold Strip it down, so it can be bought and sold Love conquers all, or so we are told The heart was surrounded by fences Tearing them down, you left me defenseless Your eyes leave me in trances Riddling my soul like ancient sphinxes Like a garden of vibrant roses Your beauty explodes like a thousand novas As a phoenix rises from smoldering ashes You lifted me above lifeless corpses Out of a perfect dream, I suddenly awoke From my chest poured a horrid smoke As everything good began to choke I realized my heart finally broke Dropping to the floor and starting to crawl In every direction an impassable wall Your name I'd desperately call Doesn't Love conquer all?

Broken Hearted

What could make a world so cold That it prevents a heart from being bold Strip it down, so it can be bought and sold Love conquers all, or so we are told The heart was surrounded by fences Tearing them down, you left me defenseless Your eyes leave me in trances Riddling my soul like ancient sphinxes Like a garden of vibrant roses Your beauty explodes like a thousand novas As a phoenix rises from smoldering ashes You lifted me above lifeless corpses Out of a perfect dream, I suddenly awoke From my chest poured a horrid smoke As everything good began to choke I realized my heart finally broke Dropping to the floor and starting to crawl In every direction an impassable wall Your name I'd desperately call Doesn't Love conquer all?
