I know of a place in a far away land
With a river of teardrops with banks of white sand
I know of a maiden in dark only shown
Who sits by the river and cries all alone
Her face is a as pale as the sand and the moon
Her cries are as chilling as the calls of a loon
Her hair is so fair, lengths of silver bond strands
By the river she sits, in the water she stands
Her eyes are of amber, so secret, so bright
Get lost in them forever, look only at night
In a simple green dress she cries and she waits
Counting the hours, still waiting on fate
This river she cried in this far away land
Someone did die on those banks of white sand
A strange unknown by the depths of mankind
A drop of strange blood was all we could find
This simple dark place so empty and broken
This maiden’s sweet cries is all that is spoken
Face all contorted as tears start to pour
Why is she there, we don’t know what for
You look in her eyes and feel like you’re blind
They simply say ‘come’ they won’t be denied
It’s a trap you will see as she draws you in
This maiden has lived a full life of sin
In her simple green dress she calls out to you
Escaping your fate you really can’t do
You’re a stranger, you see, in the depths of mankind
All that is left is all that we’ll find
A warning to all who might venture this way
To those who will seek out this land far away
Avoid the tear river all times but mid day
You cannot just visit, to come is to stay

I'm perfectly imperfect
That's what they always say
I'm crookedly straight
But I'm far from gay
I forever speak my mind
Always and all day
My heart is on my sleeve
But guarded all the same
I'm devilishly innocent
My mind is not so tame
I'm dishonestly truthful
But never take the blame
I'm completely backwards
We can never be the same
To me upwards is downwards
The sky's my only ground
Your life I can still ruin
It is with in my bounds
I'm depressingly happy
There is no middle ground
My version of earth is flat...
Why should it be round?
My earth is a work of art
With colours everywhere
Your world I broke and ripped apart
Just to prove I don't fit there
I tore it up in little bits
I left the pieces without a care
I'm completely backwards
I'm such a major scare
I'm nationally local
You can see me all the time
I can disappear into thin air
Leaving you without a rhyme
For I'm melodically harmonious
No brighter than the dullest shine
I'm incomprehensibly real
And yet so hard to find
Pure white to me is simple black
Race is gone and can't come back
I can prove all that I am
A thing to which you surely lack
I'm disrespectfully respectful
My words are always fact
I'm completely backwards
I'll drive you past insane
Then I'll never bring you back
I'm illegally legal
Like a drug that you can't sell
I'm contrastingly bendable
In this world of my own hell
I'm resistingly irresistible
My secrets you will never tell
I'm obscenely lovable
In this world in which I fell
I landed in this twisted place
A world of expectations
This world I created on my own
For I'm an undertone of exaggeration
Here I've found my only home
In a backwards world of my creation
And all in all I'm here to say
"I'm completely backwards
In every single way"
