Allies

"Al-Lies"

you gently kiss my charred fingers
burned from digging through the ashes
in search of what love still lingers
i'm blinded by my caked eyelashes

*your love tastes like murder
your love tastes like murder*

the muscles in my legs still sore
from fighting the tides and trenches
i finally wash up on your noble shores
your priceless ring my hand still clenches

*your love tastes like murder
your love tastes like murder*

look away from me
'cause i'm not worth a mistake
keep away from me
i'll only fade away

*your love tastes like murder
your love tastes like murder
your love tastes like murder*

More Confessions

"Addictions of a Confessional"

you think i'm hypnotized

but i can see to your heart
you feel brave in disguise
but i will tear you apart
call me, touch me
press your lips against me
i taste bittersweet
i'm everything you need
you think i'm being honest
but i just know what to say
you like my taste the best
wait 'till i blow you away
take me in, breathe me in
push your way right on in
i taste bittersweet
i'm everything you need
i know what i have
and i know you want it
you know what i have
and you need it, need it
try me out
i know you'll come back
seek me out
but i'll never come back

Ravaging My Body

"Ravaged"

i feel your heart racing
almost as fast as your mind
you tremble as i begin tracing
every surface, every crevice
every piece of what is mine

you let me keep exploring
i want to end the discovering
you want me to feel your love
and i'd trade it for my freedom

maybe i'm a little insane
but you like it, like it
feel the fire in me blazing
yeah you like it, like it
explore me
destroy me
don't hold back
lay me down flat

i feel your breath wet my skin
i really want to let you in
but i won't play like that
i only know how to get trapped
taste me, break me
hear me, fear me
you know i'll never let you win
but i want to taste your skin

maybe i'm a little crazy
but you like it, like it
feel the fire in me blazing
yeah you like it, like it
explore me
destroy me
don't hold back
no don't hold back

baby can you feel me
going deeper, deeper
sink your teeth into me
sink in deeper, deeper

you'll remember my name..

Firefly Confessions

"Confessions Of A Firefly"

but momma!
it's not my fault
your hand
guides my hand
and my words
are worse when
all i hear is your voice echoing in my mind
ripping through my mind
taking over my mind

turn on the faucet
and tear out my eyes
trying to forget
images burned in my mind

i'm ravaged by this hunger in me
and it's out of my control
my skin feels like it's burning
but my heart it stays so cold

but momma!
it's not my fault
your hand
guides my hand
and my words
are worse when
all i hear is your voice echoing in my mind
ripping through my mind
taking over my mind

the sirens fade behind me
as i leave this town in my dust
i don't blame you for hating me
but let me do what i must

momma don't leave me!
i can't function without you
baby, you can't leave!
i'll prove my devotion to you

one more corpse
one more body
i'll expose them, destroy them
horror in all its glory

but momma!
it's not my fault
your hand
guides my hand
and my words
are worse when
all i hear is your voice echoing in my mind
ripping through my mind
taking over my mind

i'm not evil
but i'm not healthy
i'm not dark
i just wanna be scary
get me out!
let me in!
get me out!
just give in!

One Night With The Hunter

"One Night With The Hunter"

release your broken arrow
silver grinding flesh
you'll have treasures tomorrow
they'll be spoiled riches at best

use death to fill your canteen
so that your blood runs clean
you can't take back what you've seen
you've become just a broken dream

my fingers become electric
as i outline your body
i'm too scared to admit
you electrocute my body

this hunger is burning within me
one night with the hunter
curl up where no one will find me
just once with the hunter

he's on the hunt
you should turn back now
if i could be blunt
something's wrong somehow

my fingers become electric
as i outline your body
i will never admit it
you electrocute my body

this hunger eats away at me
one night with the hunter
curl up where he'll never find me
one time with the hunter

he's on the hunt
something's wrong somehow..

Misc. Stuff

so, like any writer or lyricist, i've got lots of unfinished, random pieces that i've been collecting, hoping for something to inspire me or motivate me to finish them. sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. sometimes i get really inspired and put a few of them together. as you can imagine, that's pretty rare. but it's happened before.
so anyway, this is my summer/fall 2010 collection.
enjoy it... or something like that.

part 01

i'm ravaged by this hunger in me
and it's out of my control
my skin feels like it's burning
yet my heart it stays so cold

-------------------------------

part 02

the siren is always looking
so keep your head down
she'll fly anything with two wings
even when you're not around
i'm not nice to look at
i'm just for them to shoot at
take it from me
you don't want what's left here
she can kiss you gently
and whisper to you softly
but take it from me
you don't want what's left here
the witch is ready for you
the gypsy dances for you
but trust me
she's empty
i promise you
she'll devour you
i can't please you
but i'll never leave you
i can't serve you
but i'll never hurt you


-------------------------

part 03

show me your guns
and let me see what you can do
it's like grabbing the sun
if you could only see what you do

you'll never find God,
you little devil,
waving your gun around
like it means something
waving your gun
like you've got something
to prove

like grabbing the sun
will you burn or brighten?


-----------------------------

part 04


and suddenly
my life is at its ending
and suddenly
my eyes are finally closing
if you're not here
than maybe
i should disappear

Burn

"Burn"

i cower in the corner
fearful of your rage
my heart's slowly drowning
as tears stream down my face

but i know one day
you will be mine

you've deceived me
come back and face me
i'm moving foward either with or without you
you tried to break me
but you can't take me
i'm moving forward and it's easy without you

you think you have me cornered
force me to the floor
think if you leave me shattered
i won't fight anymore

but i'm just waiting
for your demise

you've deceived me
come back and face me
i'm moving forward either with or without you
you tried to break me
but you can't take me
i'm moving forward and it's easy without you
you've deceived me
come back and face me
you tried to break me
but you can't take me

your lies fall around me
as i watch you burn
truth illuminates me
as i watch him burn
watch him burn
i'm gonna watch him burn
i wanna watch you burn
watch you burn!
