Mirror, Mirror
On the floor.
Who's that who dared to stand before ?
Be he alive or be he dead?
I'll grind his bones to make my bread.
My, My what a big nose he had.
As he scrunched up his lips and he puffed up his cheeks.
My, my look at him pout.
As he huffed and he puffed
And he blew the light out.

Mirror, Mirror, dustridden and crack'd
How do you like it, alone in the black?

I used to have a lot of friends.

Used to.

They're still there just not the same.

Everyone thinks Im so confident and cocky.

That;s *******.

I've always felt alone.

Even amongst my closest friends.

Who ,of course all hate me.

Not that you could tell.

But i just play pretend .

Dance along.

Play the fool.

I hate the expression "tears of a clown".

Which is ironic, i suppose.

But no matter what i cant escape.

What is it about me that prefers to be hated than ignored.

I know who i am.

I know people don't like him.

Count me amongst you.

Please just count me.

Please.

I think I'll fade away else.

Dont let me be alone.

I cant do that.

Ive lived through worse.
So do your's.

You want to whisper behind my back?
Go ahead.

You want to assert your power.
By all means.

You want to cook up trouble?
Eat up.

You want to spin your lies?
I wont stop you.

You want to say what your thinking.
S'fine I can take it.

You want to turn the world inside out just to watch me squirm?
Does'nt bother me. Really.

You want to lie and cheat. ***** and judge?
Couldn't care less.

You think im the worst person in the world?
Maybe i am.

You want to riddle my life with homemade ammunition?
Then take your best shot.

But you DARE say a single ******* bad word about HER?
Well, Then you'll see just how CRUEL i can be.

i'm Prone to selfdestruction.
but you keep me safe.
I'm prone to self hating.
but you give me something to love.
i could live through anything.
eXcept losing you.
im prone to the bad thoughts.
but you scare them away.
you keep me safe from myself.
even If you dont know it.
your the sunrise to the obsidian shadows of my soul.
Even if you dont know just how much you mean to me.
i do.

I am the Cold freezing your Bones
I am the Storm destroying your Homes.
I am the Lightning and also the Rain.
I am your Tears when you scream out in Pain.
They think im the embodiment of Narcissism and Pride.
But I'm just a little boy , Who's hurt Deep inside.

Years spent waiting behind the cracked window.
Waiting.
For the leopard to change his spots.
For the teacup to hold the tidal wave.
For the gates of hell to freeze shut.
For the Sky to fall.
For an addict to care about his son.

And then I tried to stop caring. I really tried.
Hurled in the towel.
Smashed the gong.
Made the Fat Lady scream.
But deep down burnt the embers of hope.

Hope that you'd just forgotten about me.
Hope that you were doing something important.
But you weren’t, were you?
I blamed myself you know.
Thought it was me.
Hated myself for it.
Always have.
I . Was. 8.


Ive found you now though, havent I?
Clever was'nt I?
Off being a naughty boy werent you?
I thought you were dead.
I really ******* did!
Do you know what that did to me?
It kept me awake every night for months.
And it haunted my every ******* waking moment.
But you couldnt even be bother to clarify.
Could you?

Got you now though.
Haven’t I?
I don’t know what I'm going to do.
But I know I'll do what I need to.
To get over you.
For good.
See you soon, Father.
Love, Your Prodigal Son.

What happened to our artists?
When did our beauty become surgically enhanced?
Goodbye Mr Hedberg, Hello Mr Macintyre.
Goodbye Ms Whinehouse, Hello Miss Perry.
Goodbye Mr Byron, Hello Ms Kardashian.
Goodbye Mr Mercury, Hello Mr Braun.
Goodbye Mr Wilde, Hello Mr Sheen.
Those smiling faces that tell us "everythings Okay!"
A farewell to the beauty of self destruction

Goodbye Art. Hello Art.
