Shapeless like a monster in the sky Tilted like a glass eye Howling like a creature at the moon Reaching for my spoon All I ever wanted Was to be a silver bride And to hope he doesn't notice The dead girl at his side All I ever needed Was the will to be baptized So they could rinse me of my failures In the waves of a red tide Faceless like a stranger in the night Clutching my heart tight Hiding like a vampire from the sun Reaching for my gun All I ever wanted Was to be a purple bride And we could have the little funeral On a crumbling mountainside All I ever needed Was the will to be chastised Then I could wash away my suffering In the waves of a red tide

Red Tide
I wish you'd go away I'm tired of your voice I hear it night and day As though I have no choice It's been over a year Since I last saw your face You looked just like a deer But I was froze in place I'm sure you've since moved on While I dribble out this trite And my voice is long gone Like a black cat in the night

Sleep Tight
So we find ourselves here again Lost for words and looking in Never quite knowing our place Not recognizing our own face I see the razor on the glass I don't even have to ask Do you think that it will numb the pain Or maybe somewhat ease the strain They placed the apple on your head Sure their aim had seen better days Yeah we'll be happy once we're dead But still it could take years... Is this where we thought we'd be? Hating you and loathing me I see the needle on the floor I don't question anymore I wish I could have known my fate Way before it was too late Not sure I'd done a thing to change Seems our lives were pre-arranged They placed the apple on your head Sure their aim had seen better days They'll make us famous once we're dead But still it could take years...

Target Shooting
I latched onto the beast as it took off with a pounce And I gave all I had pound for pound ounce for ounce And just as I thought I had reached the beast's head I looked up and was under the belly instead
