The world below you takes a breath As you descend Deep into what seems to be nothing As you're falling The light shines through But just for a second Then again darkness surrounds you You try to scream But no sound is heard You see everything But still you see nothing You feel ground below you And you stand on your feet You turn around As the breath is ripped from your lungs And you fall once more You close your eyes Trying to think of a better place As a cold sweat pours down your face You thrash about Hoping to feel something Something to stop you from falling But there's nothing there There's never anything there Never anyone there Nobody to stop you And nobody to help you You breath your hardest But your lungs give way As you hit the water with one last breath Your throat burns As water fills your lungs And fire starts to pierce your torso You rip at your flesh As the acid eats your skin You feel dizzy As rain starts to fall You feel heavy And you can't move You're lying on the ground As your breath returns to your screaming lungs You get up and walk away As the wind starts to howl And cold ice starts to form on your skin You begin to cry But your tears freeze to your face And blood pours from your eyes The pain makes you numb You feel nothing But your heart beating in your chest Someone watches you As you walk toward the horizon He follows you Watching your every step And studying your face You can't see him But you feel his eyes burn into your skin You turn around But all you see is the wind blowing You quicken your pace But he stays right behind you You close your eyes Giving him strength He grips your arm And his hands are like ice You look down to push his hand away But there's nothing but a mere handprint The color drains from your face You try to run But you can't move The wind picks up As you start to fall Down. down into the darkness you fall Again you fall forever Until you see light And you hit the ground You wake up screaming And you fall back onto your pillow To fall asleep again Until human voices wake you And you drown

I Dream A Dream...A Beautiful Dream
The world below you takes a breath As you descend Deep into what seems to be nothing As you're falling The light shines through But just for a second Then again darkness surrounds you You try to scream But no sound is heard You see everything But still you see nothing You feel ground below you And you stand on your feet You turn around As the breath is ripped from your lungs And you fall once more You close your eyes Trying to think of a better place As a cold sweat pours down your face You thrash about Hoping to feel something Something to stop you from falling But there's nothing there There's never anything there Never anyone there Nobody to stop you And nobody to help you You breath your hardest But your lungs give way As you hit the water with one last breath Your throat burns As water fills your lungs And fire starts to pierce your torso You rip at your flesh As the acid eats your skin You feel dizzy As rain starts to fall You feel heavy And you can't move You're lying on the ground As your breath returns to your screaming lungs You get up and walk away As the wind starts to howl And cold ice starts to form on your skin You begin to cry But your tears freeze to your face And blood pours from your eyes The pain makes you numb You feel nothing But your heart beating in your chest Someone watches you As you walk toward the horizon He follows you Watching your every step And studying your face You can't see him But you feel his eyes burn into your skin You turn around But all you see is the wind blowing You quicken your pace But he stays right behind you You close your eyes Giving him strength He grips your arm And his hands are like ice You look down to push his hand away But there's nothing but a mere handprint The color drains from your face You try to run But you can't move The wind picks up As you start to fall Down. down into the darkness you fall Again you fall forever Until you see light And you hit the ground You wake up screaming And you fall back onto your pillow To fall asleep again Until human voices wake you And you drown

Ashen voices Of those unknown Call your name To bring you home Smiles carved Out of flesh and bone Call your name To bring you home Rivers of crimson And mountains of stone Call your name To bring you home Skies above And memories your own Call your name to bring you home A body cold And left alone Call your name To bring you home

Just Remember
They'll find out what makes you tick How to break you down How to make you sick You'll choke on your words You're dead inside You know why you're here There's nothing to hide You'll bleed it out You'll die alone They'll hear you scream 'There's no place like home' They'll rip oyt your heart They'll slit your wrists You know somewhere over the rainbow Doesn't exist

Muses Of The Mourning
I hear the piano in the background As the cello starts to play The violin starts up next As the music makes you sway The cello plays faster As we spin around The violin speeds up now As we fall to the ground The piano plays slowly As the rain starts to fall I look at you knowing I have nothing to fear Nothing at all

Nothing
Please allow me to explain Please know that I can't fight the pain Please understand why I can't stay Please remember it's better this way Please know that I'm not dreaming, I'm wishing Please understand that this has meaning, You won't miss me Please lock the door, I'll close my eyes Forever more, My weakness dies

Please
Mirror mirror, on the wall Cracked and broken Tarnished and dull A precious token Never meant to fall

Rose Red
Cyanide fever Clutches your throat Keep your mouth shut Through the arsenic choke Formaldehyde tears Staining your bed Keep your eyes shut Through the nightmares ahead Demonic sounds Filling your dreams Keep your ears shut Through the torturous screams The sandman burns you With his acidic stare Keep your mind shut Through the neverending nightmare The beast of the harlot Will eat you to the core Keep your veins open To bleed on the floor

Sleep
He looked happy I asked how he was "I'm wonderful" Is what he said I looked at him and smiled he smiled back He looked depressed I asked what was wrong "I'm tired" Is what he said I looked at him and smiled He didn't smile back He looked like he'd been crying I asked why "I can't take it" Is what he said I looked at him and hugged him He hugged me back and thanked me He looked cold I asked why he had left me He stayed silent And said nothing I looked at him and cried He stayed still I couldn't see him I didn't ask why, I knew I couldn't hear him He didn't say anything I wanted to hold him But they lowered him into the ground

The Middle Of Summer
A state of comastose As love in repose Your life is a masquerade But nobody knows The happiness feels Like a gun to the head A funeral march For the living dead The light has gone out As feelings slowly fade Beginning to feel numb Day after day The tears start to gather In your lonely eyes Your heart is forever broken But it's no surprise Everytime it's all the same You've never understood why People always end up leaving you Broken and alone to die You always did your best To always make it work No matter how hard you try You always end up hurt You don't know why you attempt To find love anymore You always end up beaten down Bleeding on the floor It's only human nature To want to find love again But you'll never find anyone You'll love as much as him

Everytime
A straight jacket feeling holds me close to my pain This feigning joy captures no gain Like a Shakespearean tale of love for naught This game called life is harder than I thought Some claim to love me, others claim to care No matter what they say, I don't feel it's there The one and only person keeping me here Is honestly my life and I hold her very dear She sees past the scars and fights away my fears She there through my laughter, but more so through my tears I love her more than anything and I owe her my life She's my everything and more, my vampire wife.
