Disinfectant
dreams turn to nightmares and nightmares to dreams.
Bandages
to purify the wounds and todays tears.
Band aid
fears, allow the cut to heal.
Time
heals all wounds.
In painkiller thoughts
I believe
Follow her is sillence,
follower her in fear.
Will she lead to violence?
I feel the truth is near.
Take her snow white hand.
Breathe the ice cold air.
Hear the eerie band,
in the villains lair.
Ghost Girl never spoke
but you followed anyway.
Her beauty makes you choke.
She makes you want to stay.
Touch her long dark hair,
kiss her blood red lips.
Caught in her black stare
as your heart rips.
Now you’re just like Ghost Girl.
Cold, White, Dead.
In your hair her fingers curl.
I love you dear is all she said.
My heart is yours.
How would you like it,
wrapped up in ribbons and lace?
My heart is yours.
How should I send it,
in an envelope sealed with a kiss?
My heart is yours.
What for should it take?
What forn do you wish?
Mesmerized by burning candles,
rain
and fireflies.
Beauty must be reconsidered
tonight
as the fire dies.
I want to believe in strength
paper hearts
and pretty lies.
Tonight I will sleep to dream
and
rest my weary eyes.
I dream in the day
because I can’t dream at night.
I keep my head in the clouds
because I can’t keep my feet on the ground.
I stare into space
because theres something there to see.
I know my heart is breaking.
I don’t know how to save it.
Tears roll down my face,
washing me away.
I know my mask is breaking.
The ribbons wore away.
Paint drips down my face,
leaving me exposed.
I know my heart is broken.
I know I’ll fade away.
I know my tears are empty.
I just don’t know why.
She moved with grace
I saw her face
like lillies white and pure.
He stood a while
then a smile.
His eyes were deepand blue.
After just one glance,
we took a chance.
I knew you loved me too.
But every touch
cost so much.
Our lives forever doomed.
Tonight I watch the clocks
but I miss every minute.
A waste of time.
A waste of life.
I listened to their heartbeats
but I only hear them tick
because when I watch the clocks,
im not really alive.
I feel the time pass
because I see the hands move
I know the sun rises
but am I a waste of time?
