Dancing in the Dark

The music, a melody, a phantoms tune to the blue moon
The one that brought me down to earth to dance
Not for them and not for any reason but my own
Dancing all alone, dancing in the dark
A shape, a spiral sphere, the footsteps follow suit and disappear
It never ends, the melody
You just continue on dancing in the dark
Not hand in hand, no eyes on me
Just the feeling of being swept away, its not loneliness its part of me
The part dancing in a rhythmic sea
Passion, its part of footsteps with gravity
But in the sea of darkness all it is, is me
Arabesque, swimming free, floating, flying, never crying, all alone but happy in the dark
Cliché ideas of frozen hearts, the idea it hurts, the dream that hearts are broken… in the dark
Its not so true, its only you, you and the sound of the one that’s meant to be
Just dance on the toes of toeshoes painted black to match your red-hot soul
Just the fire of your movements
Just the sound of silence in the air, all you accept is that you’re there, in the middle of the air…
Spinning all alone


Dark Heart

You can’t pretend that it’s the end when you've only seen the start
Try flipping, dipping, swirling in the circles of your heart
A mystery, a teary sea full of diamond shards
The beholder’s eye begins to cry at the beauty it can see
Try tugging, pulling, flipping, diving into a pool of glass
Breaking, falling, never saying the pain that lies with in
A mask of beauty, what lies beneath no one can even guess
The heart of a child a forever lost soul, darkness is the only rest
What mystery life holds for me, what tests I haven’t started
Who wants to be so carefree, I'll just stay broken hearted


Dollface

Burning mark for dollface, a scar to show the love
Trapped in a body of a beauty queen, surrounded by everything but love
Crimson red, a fawning shade spread over ruby lips
A way to show a lasting love, no way better then a kiss
Not on the lips or on the cheeks but a place where it must last
Leave a mark, a shining spark for the barbie doll of your past
Move on quickly or you'll find the truth that lies behind
The pretty mask of dollface
They told me lies, the tear stains wont drip makeup, its spray painted on
They told me lies, pretty lies to keep me dollfaced

But now I'm left behind


Kissest

Believe it baby cakes there is no Santa Claus
My only Christmas wish is for a taste of his sweet lips, so please just kiss me, kill me, do it all over again
Its happened that moment, the one where he's pressed deep into me in a way that only he can be
Get it all away from me, this flesh is now tainted
How can I love a mask of the bone white of the moon that’s left me blue and his favorite shade of purple The kind that hurts when you kiss it better
Kiss me again, can’t help but love that burning touch I love so much, burn me
So the fire burns and all I want is dark
All I want is to let him know I want him 6 ft under on a cold December
But my heart still aches when he walks in the room and all I want is a fence and a leash
But all I really want is…
My only Christmas wish is for a taste of his sweet lips, so please just kiss me, kill me, do it all over again


Maybe

It’s not my fault, I’m not to blame
It’s just that gypsy moon that’s brought me all this pain
First with the start and now the end
The beginnings always harder then the second start of lonely pain
You know it, so show it
If I fall to my knees will you fall with me?
Just let me fall, if I fall
Let the doors open and close; let the sun soak in
Let us never be apart; let us be one skin together
I have this dream, an oddity
One day we'll be together, in the shadows of the sun
No not in darkness, no vampiric kiss
Just me and you together just like this
No need for pain, only you and me
One day, maybe
