unity & contrast

drenched in moonlight like liquid gold

the floorboards creaked and they danced with nervous toes, nervous fingers and nervous hearts as they danced together for the first time as one.

capital

am i only worth the price youll pay?

not even worth your time of day?

as sad as it is, i think ill stay. no ill go, its getting late...

star mile

danced through the rain with eyes of liquid gold

she was the one but you left her alone to grow old.

she fed your pride but you took her for a ride

you forgot to dial as you paraded the star mile.

floral disarrangement

dress me in wildflowers and ill dance with the wolves.

undress me slowly and watch me wilt...

quietus

if death is my lover i never have to worry about him leaving.

only, about when i will join him in a sense of further permanence where curtains fall and limbs no longer shake.

true sound

your sounds remind me of my favourite song

it isnt perfect and it isnt long

but its sweet and kind and makes me smile

even just, for a little while

sun shower brewing

they all seem happy but i feel the pain

i want my rainbow but im drowning in this rain.

superman

i fell for you the night you saved my life

the night you saved me, from myself.

the colliers

we dug for a while but what we hit was stone, cold.

his heart, it seemed, was far too old.

incy wincy

spider spider why must i

be caught in your web just like a fly

why oh why must i be the one to die?

monster

he ate my heart... the silent treatment, huh? cute.

gaga ooh la la

some girls wont dance to the beat of the track and wont look back

she looks good but he says shes a mess

shes a mess shes a mess

now shes stressed

shes a mess shes a mess

float

i keep dreaming of fading cities filled with fleeting faces.

sometimes i wake to memories of werewolves and scratch marks, under a full moon that fades to black...

best in the city

once upon a time there were four friends,

and a white trash rapper rockstar.

they all fell down and ended up home far past their bedtime, with drink filled hair and the smallest one covered in glitter.

there was pain and there was fun,

drinks and music enough to make their heads spin

but most of all there were memories, for, the smallest one was memory's tenth daughter:

the silent one, the unknown. the one that got lost, and left alone.

the wolf

i saw him and everything froze

alone with the wind, the moon and the wolfs moan

hushed intent

he left me afraid he left me alone

he left me lost, with nowhere to go.

mouse club

all the mice pay a price:

her teeth filled with blood while the music was all thud....

tenth

i was never anyone, never my own.

i was the one they forgot and left alone.

the son

when i was with him i had everything;

the best of all worlds, four seasons in one day.

he told me we could fly, but, dear icarus was wrong...

we could only fall.

the warmest season

there was one time of year when she was happy.

her eyes were blue as the ocean and her hair shone in the sun

she always found happiness through others, and it was there she learnt to love.

and where she met them, so delectable on the surface and so deadly deep under...

hades

i want what i never truly had

i want arms that wrap and eyes that adore

i want shelter from the storm and a tight tight hold.

for, even if what i want take me deep into the underworld, i wont be alone, this time.

desperation

i knew you were dark yet i let you paint my dreams

of cities with birds and jewel filled trees.

i knew you were ravenous yet i let you inspire

but you were in a bedroom and she was the fire.

incomparable

nothing was ever good enough for him

so we wore the emperors clothes

shut our lips and paraded our finest

to call my own

you were the sweetest symphony, a sound so strong that will never escape my ears, my eyes, my body

we were nothing and everything but now they fill the room...

lover

so strong you were

as you took my heart, unbeating, and left me to fade.

only a memory, only a shadow

where were you when i fell with the rain?

stronger

the foam of the stars and the waves of the night sky call me but i keep swimming deeper and deeper til i find nothing but sand and the deep darkness.

demise

i spin.

into open arms that want nothing but support.

in a dream

i awoke to rainbows, only to realise that reality was right

and that this would only crumble and leave me with open arms and lost fingertips

seventeen candles

to be honest there have been plenty of times where i didnt think i would make it this far

times when i thought that escape would be an easy way out

but, game over wouldnt lead me anywhere closer to the end, only backwards, to fall, with no arms to catch me...

mingara

it was there, below the rest of the world in the valley so deep, that weather was designed.

it floated from there to the hills where it was born and sent into actualisation...

epizootic

we woke up to the winds, whipping at us, biting til tears fell down

the epidemic of emotion overflowed, into souls
until no one and nothing was left standing and no one could save...

choice

the crush caused the pain that caused my skin

to swim, with a mirage sea of bruises, staining me a deep shade of midnight
