There once was a girl who would cry,
And every night she'd go home
And wish she would die
One day came home form school
And took out her tool
To find out cutting is the most ultimate high
Another piece of wood stabbed in my heart
Another sharp pain
Tarring me apart
Another piece wedge to deep
Another nightmare when I go to sleep
Another obstacle to keep me together
Another piece of wood, just another splinter
Above the purple sky, is a dream
Ready to produce a hallucination
None,  no man  can see
A thousand symphonies beat
Trance through my winter
Beauty floods the bare delirious time
Those blue eyes, ache for life
Show me the beat for a thousand symphonies
Or else my reverie will go insane
The monster came by night
To wipe away our dreams
To take us to another place
Where nothing is what is seems
He laid us in the garden
Of shadows and of fear
Lied us down by streams
The ran blood and tears

We watched acts of violence
That no child should ever see
Watched as he took away innocence
And my lost friend from me
She locked away in Wonderland
For the rest of her years
Locked up in Fairyland
Only to be chased by her fears

I watched as phobia took over
And she began to die
I couldn't help
I was too, dying inside
Another soul wandering on an open sea
Searching for the shore
Till you came, reached out to me
Showed me a different route than before

Out of the sea of desolation
And dragged me away to the earth
Breathe new life into my wrecked soul
You gave me second birth

You were the lighthouse in the dark
With siren's song, lured me in
Your love kept me, held me from the start
Took a bite from the apple, my greatest sin

You gave me reason to live
But i choked from the apple, eaten
I plunged back into shallow water
Battered, broken, and beaten

Your lies, sweet as honey
And seeped into my mind
Then you shoved me under once again
You with another, I did find

The water ripped away the scabs
That was already healing on my heart
No thread could ever mend
The stabs in the back, which tore me apart
Somewhere, some place
In love's vast wasteland
And Heart's lament
Time and eternity begin

Somewhere, some place
Hands touch, eyes meet
Patching that heart fashioned hole
So the feeling cannot seep

Somewhere, some place
Their addict's lullabies
Falling in, then up
Lost in his eyes

Somewhere, some place
It's radiance shines
Omnipotent and omniscient
Roads with no obvious signs

Somewhere, some place
Defying gravity
Beautiful contradiction
In our unstable reality
Heaven's tears washing us away
I anticipate the blows
Ash plummeting from
The lights sparkle, twinkling in silence
The crash, the burn
My heart melted against the iron, the wood
Sparks grip, clings to my chard lungs
Hope is a bridge
I cross over quickly
Into the blackened hands of humanity
