Silhouette against the wall,
Crimson lips from shadows call,
Shapely curves and scented hair,
Lust and longing fill the air,

Angel kneeling down to me,
Demon aching to be free,
Glowing for the world to see,
Taking all the life from me,

Ecstasy beyond all measure,
Pain is equal to the pleasure,
Day to night- no sense of time,
Night to day- my world sublime,

Gone for all eternity,
Lost to all I used to be,
Trapped in immortality,
Deep in this depravity.

A tear for you, my distant friend,
The bond we share will never end,
One day, I know, we'll meet again,
Although I know not how or when.

A tear for you, my long-lost kin,
The years have left us in a spin,
One day, I know, we'll share our days,
And watch the sunset's fading rays.

A tear for you, my loving friend,
The pain we've felt will one day mend,
One day, I know, we'll reunite,
For this I pray with all my might.

Cloud above me,
Shape my day,
Guide me on my chosen way,

Cloud above me,
Shape my mind,
Keep me safe and all my kind,

Cloud above me,
Shape my night,
Show me how to win the fight,

Cloud above me,
Shape my life,
Ease my path and end my strife.

She lies upon these scattered sands,
As scarlet streams run down her hands,
Her memories blurred by distant lands,
As slowly, softly, drained she stands,

She stares out on this foreign scene,
No sign of life, nor hint of green,
A charred and broken land picked clean,
No place for her, once so serene,

She leaves a path of crimson trails,
In lines across this path of nails,
Her vision blurred by smokey sails,
In panic as her balance fails,

She lies upon these bloodied sands,
Too weak to raise or feel her hands,
Her memories cleared of other lands,
Too late to see what darkness plans.

When I'm far- I'm still quite near,
always there to calm your fear,
linking arms and courage shared,
always there each time you're scared.

When I'm out- I'm still about,
always there to ease your doubt,
keeping close and giving hope,
always there to help you cope.

When I'm gone- I'm still with you,
always there right next to you,
holding hands and hearts entwined,
always there for you to find.

The sound of silence in my ears,
A lonely crowd to hide my fears,
A bitter-sweet song in my throat,
A symphony of just one note.

The darkness bright within my mind,
An open secret none can find,
An endless dream cut short by sleep,
An ancient story none can keep.

The death that lives inside of me,
A chain that sets my spirit free,
A distant place so close at hand,
A paradise deep in the sand.

Look into her deep brown eyes,
See the truth in her disguise,
Feel the warmth within her soul,
Give your heart to her control.

Search within her mind for doubt,
Find nothing but truth throughout,
Take her hand into your own,
Start a path to the unknown.

View the world through her dark eyes,
Seek her love and tell no lies,
Never leave nor travel far,
Share your world and all you are.
