There's no more love left to give
This well has dried up
               Drop your buckets Down
                   Throw in your coins
                        Make a wish
Whatever helps you sleep at night.
I could lie.
                 Tell you its over flowing.
                                                        ­ Tell you that its unconditional.
But this Dreamless sleep is haunting me.
                            Echo...
I'm listening.
                     I'm hearing all that you say.
                     It sounds so sweet and pure,
but I am contaminated.
It's so cold,
                 just like you said it was.
Ravens.
             screaming down at me.
                                                     Black.
                                                          ­     Dark.
                                                           ­              And Broken.
Somehow your still drowning.
Filling me up with your tears.
                  While I'm still crawling down in this thick muck.
                            Digging myself
                                                      Deep­er
                                                              ­  and
                                                      Deepe­r
This is where i work my magic.
Casting spells over you.
                                       You were an easy prey.
Knight, raise your sword and fight!
                                        I like a challenge.
or let this witch control you.
Time has made me as I am.
The path laid out before me.
The sisters are spinning there strands.
                                                        ­     Laughing,
At you.
            You see,
                         The well was never there.
All was an illusion.
                         The water was untrue.
Now the darkness unveils, surrounding my heart.
It was but a guise for these indestructible walls of fortress.
            Brewing in my ***,
Sickness.                             Bubbling over.
            The planets are aligning.
            Our star in the East.
                                             The pang of love is glowing.
As I am growing sharpened teeth.
                                                         You fell in.
It all seemed so real,
                                 Didn't it?
You saw yourself, like a reflection in a mirror.
                                                         ­                   But could never sink beneath the surface.
Your face reflected inside my shining eyes.
My smile brimming at the corners.
Seducing you with words,
This spell was far too easy.
                                            And now you are a frog.
Awaiting for a kiss.
                                But where is your princess?
