Hypochristians

They say to worship to get back into church
That all I need do is fall to my knees and repent
Then all this personal pain he will prevent
To kneel and pray to “The Soveriegn God”
Well, my knees are bruised and scabbed 
Where is this God of yours I ask
Guess I’m not really a fan of his work
As I walk through this existence 
Sufferring is all I see
War in the desert neverending
Children dying so young
Little boys and girls raped by the clergy
Destruction Hate Crimes against humanity
Where is this God of yours I ask
They say Christianity is the way 
Well, bullsh!t! That’s what I say.

Dream Me In Black and White

Color me pretty
The way that you see me but not
The way I see myself

Wash me pure
The way you look at me
With eyes of unconditional love
You overlook my indiscretions
Judgment you never pass
Acceptance is all you offer
You make me a better me

Dream me in black and white
Like old time photographs
Faded
Torn edges
Jagged with time
To preserve the image that you hold of me

Paint me in red
The sweet blood that I left behind
Etching my name in the grain of eternity
So as to never be forgotten

Burn me into ashes
Let me dance on the winds of tomorrow
To feel the freedom
The release from my personal hell
As I soar across the sky of time

Music Box Dancer

Once upon a time 
So full of grace
Like a music box dancer 
She soared through life
A welcomed addition 
To the human race
Only 17 she was 
When in marched the cancer
Cancer in the form of an evil man
Never did she imagine 
The destruction to come 
Body mind and soul
Broken like stained glass 
I see the distant beauty in her eyes
Mascara spilling her dreams on the pavement
Melting into different hues of the rainbow 
She had lost herself completely
Going through the motions of her life
Like performing marionettes 
To forgive and somehow forget
Was always within her to my amazement
Over time she learned to turn a blind eye
She just didn’t have any more tears to cry

Echoless Silence

Reaching through the blackness
Trying to find something to hold
When all I could feel
Was the harsh damp cold
Desperately trying to block out
The emotions that poison my soul
I lay slowly suffocating
Beneath the rubble of my broken dreams
As silent tears spill from my eyes
Mouthing hollow prayers with Vodka soaked lips
This echoless silence is driving me insane

No Words

You pulled me in and made me love you 
Now you say we've reached our demise 
My heart beats faster 
Blood hammers in my ears 
The echo so loud 
I can’t find any words 
They all seem so empty 
So redundant 
I have no words 
You say you've warned 
And you say you see not 
As once again my life turns to disaster 
You look at me as if waiting for some response 
What can I say when I have no words 
Just spilled emotions 
I am terrified 
I say I can’t loose you 
I can’t imagine my life without you 
You say I have no imagination

Bleed Out

Everywhere I turn there you are
I cant get away
I cant break free
there you are
Haunting me
Tormenting me
You are my curse
I choke on the putrid scent you leave behind
My jaw clenches
As the pure hate rages within
There will be no peace
until the sound of your last shuddering breath
as you bleed out in my hands
finally the tables have turned
It’s my turn to spill your blood
this time baby
I will not be defeated
I hope you burn in hell
And by the way
I’ll see you there

Drowning

Moonlight floods into my eyes
As I fall to my knees to hush the cries
Thoughts so hurtful that I drown inside
as the churning hatred will not subside
uncertainty seeps into this pitch black haze

Cut deep into the memory I cannot erase
my mind taunts me with this dreaded existence
the pain and bitterness I cannot shake
these thoughts they’re so persistant

Dead Butterflies

Our passion encompasses us
floating, dancing, spinning, twirling
to resist would be like trying to hold
the ocean with a spoon
As I pull you into me
my curves fit you like a lost piece
You capture me with
your candy kisses
bringing my dead butterflies to life
with a simple touch
Let me lay with you, dream with you
Leave our troubles behind for one night
we can suffer tomorrow

Apology

I beg for the words you will not speak
Not "I  Love You"
Empty words you can keep
For you, I do not love
For you, I just despise
You and all of your lies
You beat me down in every way
Your fists so hard and full of rage
Your words are like a rusty knife
Slicing apart whatever's left inside
This agony with you I cannot take
When I would cry
You'd say I'm weak
and belt me right across the cheek
You'd get so mad I'd dare not speak
Not so hard
Most say with ease
It's not so big 
Just simply this
I'm sorry for what I did
But those words are more than you could ever give
A simple phrase is all I wanted
My life as I know it is still so haunted

I Love You

thought I'd always love you
couldn't see another way
Please don't hit me
I love you
I would say

Didn’t know that love was not supposed to hurt
that crying through the night just wasn't going to work
Please, I didn't mean to
I love you
I would say

caking on makeup
turtleneck shirts
to hide what his fists had left behind
Please, I'm sorry
I love you
I would say

like a songbird in a cage
I never learned to fly
all I could ever do is sob beg and cry
Please don't hurt me
I love you
I would say

walked around on eggshells
to try to prevent this hell
Please what did I do
I love you
I would say

supper on the table kids in the bed
he comes to me wanting
God I wish I were dead

they all heard and saw the bruises and black eyes
but no one would ever help me, I often wonder why
