Mesmerize
Red eye, lidless, forlorn,
Cloak of fury, hood of hate.
In the fiery circle, only one turn,
Guided only by the claw of fate.

Turn to the shadows,
Reach for the darkness.
Grasp only evil bellows,
Dive to the star of bleakness.

Burning, scorching, blazing,
Endless Ring of vigor.
Body weaker, soul fading,
Surge of abhor growing bigger.

Plunge your soul into your blood,
Wrap your fingers ‘round your flesh.
Drink the skeleton filled flood,
For the only thing holding you back is Death.

Laughing at the sorrowful,
Cackling as the beast of hatred flies.
When anger is near, blissful,
Keeper of secrets, teller of lies.

Slowly devoir my venom,
Embrace the murderous blade.
Kiss the monster of the realm,
Sleep on the earth where your dead king laid.

Trapped in the obscurity,
It rose in the flames.
Morphing to vile purity,
Player of sickening, deadly games.

Bathe in the perspiration of the weeper,
Dance in the light of the eclipse of Hell.
Embrace the figure of the Grim Reaper,
And praise the day hope fell.

Banished only by the gentle,
Dancing in a heated, glowing air.
Negative and hence judgmental,
Appearance so crude…and yet, so fair.

Allow my fangs to rip into you,
Let me tear you at will.
Continue to scream until I am through,
Let me banish your burden, let me kill.



Aomi
A white flower grows
‘Neath the wings of the crows
Time only stands still
Until rippled by the water’s flow

And still the white wolf sings
Of the bloody angel with tattered wings
Soaring in the sky
Clad in stained clothing

Aomi, Aomi, Aomi
Sora ni hoshi ga kagayaite iru
Aomi, Aomi, Aomi
Namida ni musebu

Slick is the sword without flaw
But thick is the blood that it draws
Whether for good or for evil
It still clamps death in its jaws

A warning in the snake’s hiss
Hunger in the spider’s fist
To remind confused souls
Your fears you must kiss

And when the night is at its peak
Just before the moon grows bleak
All of your nightmares come true
And you yourself become weak

Aomi, Aomi, Aomi
Sore ni hoshi ga kagayaite iru
Aomi, Aomi, Aomi
Namida ni musebu


Shattered Glass
You call me thick
Yet you haven’t checked my IQ
You say I’m a witch
So? Burn me alive
You call me the devil
You already make me feel like a demon in disguise

Go ahead, hate me
Hate me as you hate yourself
Go ahead, abuse me
It does nothing but strengthen myself
Go ahead, blame me
Blame me because I’m the cause

You hit me
Only after others hit you
You scream at me
When you’re only screaming at you
You make me look bad
When it’s your reputation you ruined
You punched me
But it was your eye that you bruised

Go ahead, hate me
Hate me as you hate yourself
Go ahead, abuse me
It does nothing but strengthen myself
Go ahead, blame me
Blame me because I’m the cause

You love me
But I don’t love you back
You say I’m beautiful
When my heart is purely black
You say sorry
I ignore your pleads
You cry
Your sorrow I feed

Go ahead, hate me
Hate me as you hate yourself
Go ahead, abuse me
It does nothing but strengthen myself
Go ahead, blame me
Blame me because I’m the cause

I am you’re greatest fear
Yet I’m only the reflection in the mirror

Black Rose
To bleed is effect of pain
Pain is effect of anger
Curl up in my arms
And be free of the danger

Don’t scream, don’t yell.
Stop, you’ll make your momma cry
Come here, let me hold you
And we’ll both watch as the Black Rose dies

As the Black Rose dies…

Anger is effect of hurt
And hurt begins when forced.
Let me embrace you
And give you the life that is yours

Don’t scream, don’t yell
Stop, you’ll make the family cry
Come here, let me hold you
And we’ll both watch as the Black Rose dies

As the Black Rose dies…

Cause and effect
Fortune and fate
Allow me to comfort you
And shield you from hate

Don’t scream, don’t yell
Stop, you’ll make the whole world cry
Come here, let me hold you
And we’ll both watch as the Black Rose dies

As the Black Rose dies…

Is life that painful?
Do really cry in your sleep?
Let me cradle your tiny body
Hush now, do not weep

Don’t scream, don’t yell
Stop, you’re making me cry
Why won’t you let me hold you?
I guess it doesn’t matter, for the Black Rose has died.

The Black Rose has died…


When Darkness Comes (all will be beautiful)
Laced with azure silk
With sleeves made of sapphires
Skin as fair as creamy milk
Dancing with the grace of fire

A slender hand
A gentle touch
A silver fan
There is never too much

Mmm oh,
Her voice is filled with song
Her hair is filled with rubies
Mmm oh,
As gentle as the bell
As powerful as the gong
Mmm oh,
Yet she still just doesn't see
How nearly perfect she looms
Mmm oh,
Because she's still blinded
By the beauty of the moon
Oh,
Child of the Night
Lady of the Skies
Woman of flight
As simple as the tree
As complex as the rune
Why do you continue
To be beaten by the moon?

Clad in tattered rags
With sleeves made of flesh
Skin as rough as paper bags
Stepping with the grace of the rest

A moth-eaten arm
An icy cold stare
Disappearance of charm
Life is never fair

Mmm oh,
Her voice is filled with cries
Her hair is filled with flies
Mmm oh,
As sturdy as the twig
As reliable as the dice
Mmm oh,
And she has always seen
The mirror on the wall
Mmm oh,
And it clearly states
She's not the fairest of them all
Oh,
Child of the Night
Lady of the Skies
Woman of flight
As simple as the tree
As complex as the rune
Why do you continue
To be beaten by the moon?

But once the moon goes out
And we no longer play Light's game
We'd all just learn that
In Darkness, we're all the same

We're all the same

Mmm oh,
Her voice is filled with silence
Her hair is nothing but blackness
Mmm oh,
As subtle as the knife
As obvious as the night
Mmm oh,
And we will never see
How perfect beauty looms
Mmm oh,
Now that we're no longer blinded
By the beauty of the moon
Oh,
Child of the Night
Lady of the Skies
Woman of flight
As simple as the tree
As complex as the rune
Even though it's gone
You're still beaten by the moon

All the King's Men
To tuck you in, "safe" at night
Be sure to snuggle up tight
For sleep will only take over your head
With images of torture and dread
Hush! Don't scream
They only find you quicker!
Shush! Don't bleed
For they drink what is thicker

[little girl, sung in raspy voice]
Ring around the Rosie
A pocket full of posies
Atishoo, atishoo
We
All
Fall
Down

[Original singer]
Don't watch as that flesh eaten hand
Reaches into the baby's crib
Cover your ears with your hands
So as not to hear Death's bid
Quickly! To the dawn
Relieve us of the shadows
Swiftly! Like the fawn
Blocking evil bellows

[older man, sing with a harsh tone]
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses
And all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpy together again

[Original singer]
Penetrate your soul
And find the missing piece
Watch as the black sky grows
Forcing you to your feet
Stop! Don't go further
Your mind has been played with tricks
Halt! Don't give in
For they will make your head sick

[younger woman, sounds as if she's crying]
Rock-a-by baby on the treetop
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock
When the bow breaks, the cradle will fall
[sob]
And down will come baby, cradle and all

[Original singer]
Here is a blade to ward off the fiends
Use it as your steel fist
Do not bother hacking at the demons
For the knife is for your own wrists
Slash! And get us away from here
Get us away from here
Cut! And take away all our fears
Take away all our fears

Death! A word now cherished
Peace! Even though we have perished
But eternal blackness we confront
Because of one
Little song
Because of one
Little dream
Because of one
Little wrong
Because of one
Little me

Slash! And get us away from here
Get us away from here
Cut! And take away all our fears
Take away all our fears







AbSuRdItY

Yellow clouds swirl around a purple dew sky,
This crazed place is strengthening.
As my three arms scratch my head, I must wonder why.
My toes digging unto the blue soil are banqueting.

Flowers litter the pink slime topped mounds,
Yet no colors do they…will they bear.
This crazed place is gripping at my mind in a tight grasping bound,
The ludicrousness makes me annoyed, forces me to tear at my hair.

Walking becomes a struggle as I stagger and sway,
This crazed place is causing my body to fight.
My head is spinning, a war within fray.
My feet are confused as they stumble along, which one’s left and which is right?

My thumb growled with starvation,
As I sprained my stomach from twisting it too far.
This crazed place is tormenting my every deliberation,
As I continue to falter through this incongruous land that is mar.

Words struggle to protrude from my ears,
Oh how I wish to scream!
This crazed place is torturing me, all through the long years,
As my mouth yearns to listen for another voice to bring me back to serene.

My head does the walking,
As my legs ponder bemused.
From reality, this crazed place is blocking.
I am like a fade in life; unwanted…unused.

When will this tormenting end?
When will this suffering stop?
Will I ever feel the taste of easiness again?
How I wish that from this crazed place I will drop.

Winged dreams disrupt my raw thoughts,
Their sticky surfaces bruising my magenta skin.
This crazed place is abandoning my brain, allowing it to rot.
In the battle between farce and reality who will win?

The simplicity of life spins before me without hesitation,
Unaware of my miserable state.
How did this crazed place become my destination?
My mind, once was so easy to handle, has now turned into endless freight.

Beads of sweat trickle down my knees,
As my two foreheads buckle with fear.
I am trapped in the crazed place, no longer shall I be free,
Hours become minutes as minutes to seconds and soon passes by a year.




No longer does my head yearn to feast upon sincerity,
It has learned to starve upon falseness and twisted-ness.
No longer does my body ache to function correctly,
It has learned how to falter and no longer exactness.

My mind has fumbled unnecessarily, for it shows,
Tears stain my wrist at the knowledge of the unwanted fact.
My eyes burn as I writhe them to and fro,
I was dragged unwillingly to this crazed place…and I wasn’t going back.

Laughter…smile… charm,
Never again would I feel such delight.
Peace…soothe…warm,
Never again would I see or feel the light.

Memories of realism are gradually fading away,
No longer will my mind thirst on what is not here.
My brain shrills a scream of unknown terror with each passing day,
All bravery lost, all hope diminished, I can only feel fear.

Desire is a factor I can rely on no more,
No longer can I remember feelings.
No longer may I feel hate…pain…or gore.
But I would give anything now to feel…even if it meant misery.

This crazed place has now triumphed,
I have pathetically given in.
This crazed place has me now overcome,
This, I know, may be the end.



Many years have now passed,
Since I entered this crazed place.
My last breaths are shortening…I am fading away fast.
But with my last few moments to live I strain for something across my face.

At first I cannot see what I yearn,
Until my ragged lips curl in a smile.
And then from torment the rest of my body adjourns,
And then the rest of my body smiles.

It is I, who has won,
It is not I, who has perished.
For so many years I have been here…alone,
I have finally remembered that no matter what, life must be cherished.

And slowly I passed on into eternal slumber,
How I wished just once that I could have prized life even if it appeared so ghastly.
But for once in many years…years so great a number,
I smiled once more…one last time…and I was happy.

 


Endless

 

Fluttering, flying

 Spread my wings

Soaring, gliding

Who cares what others think?

 

Sprinting, dashing

 Let the wind touch my face

Stepping, dancing

Forever in this place

 

Laughing, smiling

Make me blissful

Giggling, chiding

Us, never wistful

 

Naďve, furling

Touch my hand

Silence, searching

Let me grab your hand

 

Peace, tranquility

Listen to my breath

Hush, serenity

Follow me to my death

 

Jagged, menacing

Jump with me

Frightening, intimidating

Let our souls go free

 

Falling, terrifying

I go down, not above

Struggling, crying

 

You pushed me off the cliff called “love”

 


Don't Leave Me (Lord of The Rings Fanfic) 

 

Ominous whispers in the looming mountain,

Onward they bring me, toward my destiny…toward my doom.

The fires of fate lie in the mountain’s chasm,

My heart sinking deeper in the growing gloom.

 

 

(Gandalf)

Don’t leave me here to die,

Don’t let me wither.

It was you, who told me to fly,

But how can I when you are no long hither?

 

The world is slowly changing,

The planet is tilting in its place.

Slowly passing into oblivion,

Evil is now afoot, faster in pace.

 

(Aragorn)

Don’t let me diminish,

Don’t leave me to fade.

Your bravery in the past had always helped my soul replenish,

For it was you who swore to protect me by your blade.

 

Smoke rises in the East,

And with it looms the darkness.

Somehow I must keep atop my feet,

  For the only thing protecting me is my flesh.

 

(Merry and Pippin)

Don’t let me cease,

Don’t leave me to suffer.

You taught me to never weep,

And look at life through laughter.

 

The skies grow baleful,

And thunder clasps any valor.

Fear in these parts is plentiful,

But it is I who must take the dread and conquer.

 

 

 

 

 

(Legolas)

Don’t let drown in woe,

Don’t leave me here to burn.

You so powerful with arrow and bow,

 It was an honor to have your allegiance sworn.

 

The ring hanging by my chest,

Only grows deeper with each passing night.

Will the power of The One give me no rest?

It is the thing keeping me from outright.

 

(Gimli)

Don’t let me rot to nothing,

Don’t leave me here to plummet.

Your tactics so powerful, so cunning,

May you have better fortune than my imminent.

 

Cold winds slap at my weak back,

Surges of torture lie within.

It’s the ring that is causing my heart to go black,

Do I wish to know how this will end?

 

 

 

(Boromir)

Don’t let me freeze in my fright,

Don’t leave me here alone.

I know you saw nothing but the Ring in your site,

But why did you betray me for the One?

 

Shadows pass over my thoughts,

Grasping them in a tight bound.

Somehow this war must be fought,

But will it end in an ash-filled mound?

 

(Sam)

Don’t let me fall into void,

Don’t leave me here to quiver.

Faithful companion, I dragged you on my road,

And I know to leave me you would never.

 

Don’t let my soul fully dry,

Please, give me my heart to keep.

Don’t leave me here to die,

Just let me stay, let me weep.

 

Don’t Leave Me.

 

Don’t leave me here to pass to eternal sleep,

Just let my sob, let me cry.

Let me shed me tears, let me weep,

And I only ask: Please don’t let me die.

 

Don’t Leave Me.

 

Just let me sob, let me cry,

Let me shed my tears, let me weep,

And I only ask: Please don’t let me die. 





To Live is To Lose

Why fear the forgotten
When they are already lost?
Why search for what's gone
When everything's clearly hopeless?

There's no honor to merely try
No victory in attempting
You can only do or die
For here you will find no redemption

[chorus]
Lost yourself in the labyrinth
There's no way to get out
Follow the voice of the witch
Perhaps you'll find a safer route
Kill the bull and the eye
For they will haunt your journey
But the shadow you will not fight
For he is always wary
Fifty-two pick up will take on a new name
For when the cards slices and dices, it becomes your own game
Lay that ace out on the table
And watch as the spirit is let loose
Trapping yourself in this dark fairy tale
The only way out is to lose

The bindings on your wrist
Show that you are week
You're fears you must kiss
In order to become free

The clouds are swirled
Like your own messed up brain
Watch as the scenery twirls
And play sickening mind games

There's a war going on
Between you and yourself
One side has now won
While the other has killed itself

Lost yourself in the labyrinth
There's no way to get out
Follow the voice of the witch
Perhaps you'll find a safer route
Kill the bull and the eye
For they will haunt your journey
But the shadow you will not fight
For he is always wary
Fifty-two pick up will take on a new name
For when the cards slices and dices, it becomes your own game
Lay that ace out on the table
And watch as the spirit is let loose
Trapping yourself in this dark fairy tale
The only way out is to lose

Not even the paper flowers
Can brighten the path
For their poisonous darts
Show you their wrath

And even the trees are an omen
That dares you to press further
And the snake with deadly venom
Becomes your herder

Welcome to the Pool of the Dead
Its contents are the tears of the weeper
Yet it has a thick red
The blood of the Grim Reaper

Go on, try to leave
Come on, just try
So you have been listening to me
You know you will only do or die

A shame you had to die

Lost yourself in the labyrinth
There's no way to get out
Follow the voice of the witch
Perhaps you'll find a safer route
Kill the bull and the eye
For they will haunt your journey
But the shadow you will not fight
For he is always wary
Fifty-two pick up will take on a new name
For when the cards slices and dices, it becomes your own game
Lay that ace out on the table
And watch as the spirit is let loose
Trapping yourself in this dark fairy tale
The only way out is to lose

Do you remember how the sun shone,
Back in your world?
Do you remember how you used to smile,
Back in your world?
Do you remember how you used to love,
Back in your world?
Do you remember all that was vile,
Back in your world?

Forget it all
For you'll never see it again
Disregard it all
This is all that you'll get

You didn't lay that ace onto the table
You just wouldn't lose
Pity, you seemed so able
But you just couldn't choose
Between honor and life
Sure it was obtuse
But at least we took the easy way out, eh?

A shame you had to die
Just because you had to try
When I told you
You could only do or die

Pity, you have no pulse
Because you didn't lose
Even when I told you
That ace you must use

At least you're no longer lost in the labyrinth
For you've found the way out
Without following the voice of the witch
For you found your own route
Disregarding the bull and the eye
You destroyed your journey
But your shadow you had to fight
Because you were too wary
Fifty-two pick up will take on a new name
For when the cards slices and dices, it becomes your own game
Lay that ace out on the table
And watch as the spirit is let loose
A shame you didn't trap yourself in this dark fairy tale
If only you would lose 



Wandering Spirits

To wander stealthily
With the tiger’s claws
Pouncing fervently
Clamping Life in my jaws

To glide along the water
With the agility of the snake
Watching leaping fish
In the midst of my wake

To hunt powerfully
With the bow of a man
And aim of the lady
And master my land

Listen, young child
The world tonight is alive
Full of wandering spirits
To grace our souls
Listen, young child
For your destiny shall be told
Will you dance with the wolves?
Or scavenge with the crows?
Only fate will tell

To play blissfully
With the heart of an ape
Swinging in harmony
Only anger to fake

To laugh heartily
With the hoaxing coyote
Knowing you only live once
And spend life merrily

To soar the bleak skies
With the wings of the eagle
Flying through our troubles
With power so regal

Listen, young child
The world tonight is alive
Full of wandering spirits
To grace our souls
Listen, young child
For your destiny shall be told
Will you dance with the wolves?
Or scavenge with the crows?
Only fate will tell

Or perhaps in my destiny lies
The voices and blood curdling cries
Of sickness and madness
To fulfill my happiness

To kill quietly
With the power of the lion
Gnashing cruelly
Just to watch my prey dying

To sneak along the trees
With the treachery of the adder
Crushing victims to death
For their lives do not matter

To hunt wickedly
With the gun of a man
And terror of the lady
And conquer my land

Listen, young child
The world tonight is alive
Full of wandering spirits
To grace our souls
Listen, young child
For your destiny shall be told
Will you dance with the wolves?
Or scavenge with the crows?
Only fate will tell

Only fate will tell
Only fate will tell
Only fate will tell
Listen, young child
For only fate will tell


 


 

Look Me in the Eye

Anonymous
Mysterious
Nearly fictitious

Is any of this real?
Are you even there?
How can I trust that you are,
When all I see is thin air?
Trust in something that has no proof
Believe in something with no facts
I don’t want anything to do with you
How else did you expect me to react?

Invisible
Unreliable
Story buyable

I want to reach out
I want to touch you
And feel you
So I know that you’re there
Someplace in the midst of that air
But you hold back
You don’t let me look you in the eye
So in the future I won’t try
Is that what you wanted?

Fraud
Gone
Not someone

I feel stupid
I feel cheated
For I am the one who has been beaten
Whipped with your malicious mace
Just because I wished to see your face
Then again, why should I care,
That you hurt me so,
When I knew in the first place that you were never there?

Is that really what you wanted?
 

One Thousand Screams

Soft and misleading
Drawing you into
The Vortex of Eternal Bleeding
Though sweet is the words
Of those that were hurt,
They did not plant the seedling

Roots grow deep
Watered only by
The sounds of
A thousand screams
Of a thousand heads
That lived a thousand lives
And died a thousand deaths
Mask of the Reaper
You're looking quite Grim
Tears of the Weeper
A thousandth sin

Aged, twirling arms
Grasping at air
Trying to hold to
What is not there
Drained, gray eyes
Searching for rest
And nearly yearning
For an easier death
Cracked is the flesh
Where there once was hope
Farwell ye merry friends
For Hell has now spoke

Through the window
Past the curtains
The sounds of
A thousand screams
Of a thousand heads
That lived a thousand lives
And died a thousand deaths
Water the tree
That started it all
And from the branches
The ghosts will fall


Bleed

In the fields I pray
To an unknown god
And a lost faith

In the woods I sing
Without a voice
Without a ring

In the stream I dance
Despite no hope
Despite all chance

Just put me back to pieces
Just break me into whole
In the labyrinth of Hell
No one knows where to go
Moisture on the fire
Tears of the devil's eyes
Burning your soft flesh
No one to hear your cries
Shadows take my hand
Gently leading me
To my Promised Land…
My own Promised Land

In the dark I bleed
And the spiders
I shall feed

In the walls I hide
With a stealth
That has long died

In the fire I drink
As darkness falls
And shadows creep

Just stab me back to life
Just heal me until death
The dark powers of evil
Grows even stronger yet
Bloodless is the blade
Halted is the killing
But look and watch
It is you you're hitting
Shadows take my hand
Gently leading me
To my Promised Land…
My own Promised Land

In the sky I sleep
With open eyes
And moving feet

In the light I scream
Of things in my head
And my dreams

In the cell I slash
Wishing for
A different past

Just shake me back to sleep
Just scream until I wake
No secrets need be kept
Your predicament was fate
Eyes that cannot see
Tombs that cannot hold
The promise that you keep
Shadows take my hand
Gently leading me
To my Promised Land…
To my Promised Land

In the fields I pray
To an unknown god
And a lost faith
Take me to my Promised Land
In the fields I pray
In the fields I pray


When Darkness Comes (all will be beautiful)

Laced with azure silk
With sleeves made of sapphires
Skin as fair as creamy milk
Dancing with the grace of fire

A slender hand
A gentle touch
A silver fan
There is never too much

Mmm oh,
Her voice is filled with song
Her hair is filled with rubies
Mmm oh,
As gentle as the bell
As powerful as the gong
Mmm oh,
Yet she still just doesn't see
How nearly perfect she looms
Mmm oh,
Because she's still blinded
By the beauty of the moon
Oh,
Child of the Night
Lady of the Skies
Woman of flight
As simple as the tree
As complex as the rune
Why do you continue
To be beaten by the moon?

Clad in tattered rags
With sleeves made of flesh
Skin as rough as paper bags
Stepping with the grace of the rest

A moth-eaten arm
An icy cold stare
Disappearance of charm
Life is never fair

Mmm oh,
Her voice is filled with cries
Her hair is filled with flies
Mmm oh,
As sturdy as the twig
As reliable as the dice
Mmm oh,
And she has always seen
The mirror on the wall
Mmm oh,
And it clearly states
She's not the fairest of them all
Oh,
Child of the Night
Lady of the Skies
Woman of flight
As simple as the tree
As complex as the rune
Why do you continue
To be beaten by the moon?

But once the moon goes out
And we no longer play Light's game
We'd all just learn that
In Darkness, we're all the same

We're all the same

Mmm oh,
Her voice is filled with silence
Her hair is nothing but blackness
Mmm oh,
As subtle as the knife
As obvious as the night
Mmm oh,
And we will never see
How perfect beauty looms
Mmm oh,
Now that we're no longer blinded
By the beauty of the moon
Oh,
Child of the Night
Lady of the Skies
Woman of flight
As simple as the tree
As complex as the rune
Even though it's gone
You're still beaten by the moon


Silent Spectator

Momma never talked
'Bout those dull Senate blues
Just wanna get up and
Dance in my blue suede shoes
Gotta get my mind
Off the lousy bills
'Cause, quite frankly,
Who cares how I feel?
Tally up the game board
Which vote will beat the team?
In the end it doesn't matter
'Cause it doesn't include me
Stand up and cry aloud
Blame me because I'm the cause
Don't matter what I see
As long as I don't say you're wrong
Call me the elitist
Tell me how I steal
Honey, I'm sorry
That's the way you feel
Don't wanna sit around
Waiting for more talk
Just get me outta here
So my mind can be unlocked
To hell with your lousy eggs
Let's stick 'em all in the basket
We're not putting anything at stake
'Cause in the end, they're all gonna break
