Treat Me Like An Orphan

A demon suprise
A daunting demise
Welcome home parades for the assassins are ringing in my ears
Do you see the tones in the oceans' breath

It's cold as a tune and I'm running on empty

I'd love a thank you letter from the devil for the actions I have spared.
I've got a perfect ending for this scene we're stealing
But now's not the time darling, now's not the time

WRITE ME OFF!!!!!!
(i've written words more delicate than you)

Common misconceptions are misplaced in modern art
So as the posterchild of the modern flaw
I've taken time to paint this right
(i dream in sentences and phrases)

So...you want a choice, well change the meter
Because you're time is coming to an end
And you don't want to be stuck with those fines
FINE!!!!!

Do you have the time, father,
Or must I assume that things are real by staring at the sky
Because I have to be honest
The twinkle in her eyes seem to be losing their affect
And this world is crumbling block by block
