Aeerdna
I see the red sun sinking in the horizon
before my eyes the sky is burning,
the half moon shyly smiling
but it is in on her dark side
where my heart is falling.

I breathe in the scent of the evening
trying to remember the days
when I was happy only because I was living.
the soft wind wants to give me wings
but my mind is drowning
in the river running wildly next to my aching body

as the night gets darker,
my ghosts are revealing their faces,
my demons are waiting on the right side of my bed
and while the stars will dance their waltz
I will be sleeping with my fears
and let the nightmares bite again
another piece of my restless soul.

I taught you the skin of the wolf                                                 I                                        
My skin                                                             ­                                 saw                           ­ 
These fangs as a pretty smile                                                    you   ­                                         
My smile                                                            ­                        in                                    
                                                                ­                                           the                                      
These fangs.....                                                       ­                              rain                              
dripping blood from the last ****                                 You
But hungry still                                                            ­         promised                                  
Always hungry                                                          ­                     me                            
Always on the prowl                                                            ­                 your
These sharpened razor teeth                                                            ­         blood                
This lust and flesh for meat                                                             ­                              I  
                                                                ­                                                          promised
I taught you the heart of a wolf                                                         you
It's only beating                                                          ­                     a
To hunt                                                             ­                    flood

**I want you to die
Into me
I dream of running into the night sky
No one to see me
Or where I've gone
No traceable footprints
No way to feel me
When night creeps along.
I dream of disappearing
No one to know me
Or my name.
I dream of never looking back
to familiar faces
of the past.
I just want to run away and be free
Like the night wind.

I watched the bandits come to steal my sky
Black mask and black eyes
Black shapes spreading night
They stole the silver lining of the clouds
They took the sun and took the moon
Absconded with the stars I wish on
Held in their cruel gloved hands
All of my dreams

I swam with sharks to save you from drowning
Hungry and hateful
Sharp teeth driven by instinct
They smelled my blood in the water
Could feel my hearts broken beating
Madly longing for meat
A feeding frenzy
My flesh a feast

I died in a war to live with you
Young and hopeful
Bullets smile as they cut me down
Bombs falling as rain I try to dance in
I feel explosions in my heart
tanks and armies marching
I see enemy lines
And battles lost
Don't smile
Don't frown
Don't turn around
Don't make eye contact  

Don't wink
Don't blink
Don't even think
About where you are at

Don't say hey
Don't wave
Don't small talk make
Stare straight at the wall

Don't clear your throat
Call someone bro
Or make a joke
Of okay now please cough

You're a man
Wash your hands
Though that's not in the plan
Dry them on your pants

Walk to the door
As you ignore
All else but the floor
Don't even think of looking back
On a road trip and have had the pleasure of stopping at a few rest areas...
One thing I hear
That is perfectly clear
You can never get away from the noise

Whether it be
The inside drone of the T.V.
Or outside traffic there is no choice

Wherever you go
In the daily flow
You never escape the sound

From cars right and the left
To planes overhead
There is always noise around

As your heart skips a beat
In the vibrating seat
From the bass of the car next to you

Can't clutch your ears and your chest
As you have only two hands
So you just sit there and suffer through

You would love to escape
But know of no place
Where silence could be enjoyed

As you trudge along
To the bang of the gong
With the never ending noise
