Fire swirls in an empty black galaxy
Take your hand, and keep trying to hold on
Spinning, dancing, and popping ecstasy.
Somehow your goodbye leaves me feeling conned
And angels swoop down and cut out my tongue
Throw down your cards and a few bills and fall
Growing old with you sounds better than young
Every day, playing, just being your doll.
And the thorn you take comes from roses of red.
Eyes are windows, and yours are dark night skies.
Feeling like I'm dying but never dead
Snow is falling, you keep me warm with lies
Jumping off headfirst, crashing on concrete
Running in circles, missing ev'ry beat

I was standing in Walmart when I sent that text
Asking you to the dance  
Now when I asked you to the dance it was never an actual invitation to actually dance with you
Just a scared girl making a very small step
And you said yes
And I could not have been any happier
Now fast froward to that day and I couldn't take a single step in your direction
I didn't know how to face you
And so I left the money for you to get into the dance at the table and hid in the crowd
And soon you were in and I had to stop hiding  
You were funny as always and I loved it
You brought me out to dance and it was great
You made me feel like no one else ever had.
And the first slow dance came and I wasn't able to dance with you  
And I was so mad
But given time the second slow song came on
And in that moment I froze
It felt like forever had passed while I tried to think of what to do
And my brain panicked and said run
But my heart said dance
So in that moment I held out my hand
And you took it
And I was swept off my feet
And at the end of the night I wasn't ready to say goodbye
But like that night all things must end.

As the world came crashing down
I couldn't help but wonder
At the beauty of its wholeness.
As I cursed the rain for soaking through my mind,
I laughed because I knew it would fall.
There's a terrible but beautiful way this lonely little sphere
Sitting in an endless dance takes all this in stride.
It sings and it dances and it twirls and it spins,
And it never stops.
Not for heartbreak,
Not for anger,
Not for loss.
I stood there and looked at it
Amidst the downpour and the flood,
And couldn't help but wonder at the beauty
Of being free from the ground.
It would never fall,
It would never fly,
It would never feel the seemingly too-close
Emotions,
But until the end of time,
It will always
Keep on
Dancing.

i dread the day
where i will have to whisper a wrong-feeling goodbye into your arms
we aren't meant for this fate
though we knew it would end this way
from the beginning
it never felt right
no
we were meant to orbit each other forever
we will dance in the stars
forever
in loving memory
of the times we danced and sang together
on earth

I'm so disco
shining ball
electric dance-floor
sweaty skin crawl

no one listens to the devil at the bar
dancing alone
making love to a cigar
"who let him in?"
  ask voices afar

I'm so disco
it's not hard!
sell your soul
give in to what's wrong

the songs are cruel
but the people are worse
they dub you disco
make you curse

when blue lights turn us dizzy
***** coats the throat
there's an evil deep inside
that brings me to my knees
every time

"help me! help me!"
I scream with sore lungs
crashing to the floor with a thud like a gun
"I'm so disco!"
but no one hears
they're so disco
the dance goes on

I dream of waltzing in the snow,
but not dancing alone.
There is another by my side
for every snowball thrown.

Another pair of dusted brows,
and cloudy breath combined.
Another set of icy lips
that choose to meet with mine.

I whisper gently in his ear
"I wish that I could stay.  
Our time is short, I know, but we
will meet again one day."

The world begins to fade and I
know just where I must head.
I'm pulled awake, and spread across
the usual crumpled bed.

The chorus of the dawn begins -
the robin, right on cue!
I don't know who he's chirping for,
but my song's just for you.

Wretched wickedness.
Robed in synthetic skins.
Contorted are all.
Of there limbs.
The chaos swallows them.
Swallows them whole.
While shadows are dancing;
Inside six foot holes.
............................................
pyxhonaut.
Reality is lost.
***** when cough.
Up four nights.
With no sleep.
Hide the mirrors;
with sheets.
..........................................
In trance.
In darkness black;
The lonely manic.
Laughs;
Arm slashed;
Craft masochistic acts.
Insane;
Destructive ways;
LeAves soiled floors bloodstained.
We burn the flesh;
Over candles hot flame.
