When you're shattered
you should be aware
of your sharp edges
so you won't hurt
the ones
who tries to embrace you
with a gentle & warm
smile.

We were a game of chess -
You were my king
and I was your pawn.
but you did not realize
I was so much more -


check
mate
.
Stuck in this empty place, with no saving grace.
This world is so consuming, we think we know what we're doing.

Without even thinking
I blink and then I'm drinking
Unconscious then I'm dreaming
of a place that's close to heaven
but I know I'm there cause I've sinned again.

Take me out this dreadful place
And bring me back to the party again.
Let the ethanol drown my soul.
Let the music be within me
so I can drop to the beat
that brings the heat,
when I dance with my feet.

So listen to the words I say,
Cause the party queen doesn't come out during the day.

Newborn lungs of lush green pasture
All the pain
Birds of prey; laughter
Little song torrential rain
handful

Of horses mane
Impossibly tamed
*******

Melodies
As wasps they sting
Remember?

The music plays
In dripping caves
Forever

Insecure
I'd shut my mouth
Then I could kiss
And watch you breathe
As golden seas
Endeavor

Wasting
Expensive rush
Tap your watch
Smile


A king of rats
A rat of kings
Jester
Hear me play
In this way
Wonder

Home at last
Cut down the mast
For fire

This moonlight beach
No man may reach
This sky of blue
It tastes of you
But sadder
The air surrounding me
Is weighing me down
The tears slowly falling
Are enough to make me drown
The voice of reason is silent
I can't seem to make a sound
My subconscious is violent
I'm not sure if I should be found
