Awkward Walz

With your face down
And the bottle in your hands
You stand among the ghosts
And taste your blood and tears
You do not know them
And their normal words can hurt
But didn't you leave behind
The chance to be like them
This tune will take you home
Where their shouts won't echo through your walls
This pain won't last forever
But the marks will stain your face
Maybe it's me to blame
Cause we all share the same face
Hate rains, your window locked and you
Oh you just wet your bed
And I'm the ghost above you
Begging for forgiveness
But you can't speak
You can't wake up so
Now dream like you're happy
And run like a coward
And Talk like you care
And smile like you mean it
And lie like a fairytale book
Put all the grace in your face
Praise all their holy disgrace
It's now or never
Pay up all of their fraud in pain
Stay just for one more day
And die like a dog in chains
And you'll be clean
This tune will take you home
Where their shouts won't echo through your walls
This pain won't last forever
But the marks will stain your face
This waltz will stop and someday
You won't feel a thing inside the void
It is your sacred silence
Prevailing in the place where
They can't be

Tempest Lily

I won't let you go
If you won't let me know
That i'm old and alone
My tempest lily
And it won't be in vein
Won't make the same mistakes
And I know that I'll be
So afraid
But I won't let you know
My tempest lily
Every day the mirror says that I'll be fine if I keep doing all the things that I must to keep my mother proud and stand up to every kind of stupid demand and walk and walk till my feet bleed
Cause I'm absolutely free to do whatever they want me to I guess I don't understand love cause I'm sick of compromising
Anymore
Sick of giving cause all the bites on my hands hurt
I won't be nailed on the cross twice this month
I won't feed their eyes with the picture they want cause I'm sick of crying spiders behind their backs
Tempest lily you're my life
Oh God how I dreaded your arrival
Naked, spread legs on a hospital bed and warm lips sucking my life, taking my dreams, making me feel so happy inside and I won't smoke and I won't drink and I won't eat until my bones pierce my skin
You are the hope that was not too high for me

Sad man you're done
You bleed on a dime
Your body's rusty
And your heart's on the banner
So bloody
Sad man where you go
They're more than you alone
In the back you hear it too
The conflict's starting
Blame this on me
Sad man where you go
Your strength was left home
The televised fear has caused it all
And no household will hire
A lost girl that's not so bright
But I don't want this war to kill the ones I love
Blame this on me
Stained coat
I can hear the sound
And the gate will fall
Here I am on the back of your car
And you're leaving me
I'll always be sold
While you're not allowed
I can be phony
When I am wrong about you again
Is this thought so
Damn unnaprochable
Reach my mind
There's a smiley face
And it's very hard
To wake your worries
When you're 'bout to tie the rope on the other side of the phone
Blame it on me

Why can't I stay home
Why all the things I knew are gone
Why lie in the middle of the road
Life has gone away
Come lord hear my voice
I'm out of this place
Tell them what I faced
Please show them the way
Now that the guilt marked them like stain
Now that my memory remains
I'm looking forward to sun
Freedom at last
It don't hurt anymore
There's no pain no hope
They're there and I'm home
Alone on my cloud

I can see a shadow
Coming from the inside of you
And I'm left with a bad dream
To remind me what I should do
I feel so hollow
When I am trying to return
Cause all of it seems shallow
And there is nothing left to burn
R/
I can feel my shadow
Trying hard to escape
And I'm tired to fathom
I do not want it anymore
I'll live with that shadow
Slowly becoming me
And I won't try to argue
With what is growing under my skin
R/
C/ your beautiful lips won't sing this song
And I won't even try to
Prevent the coming of this burst
The only thing that's left now
your beautiful lips won't sing this song
And I won't even cry to
The coming of the daydreams
That cloud me with your shadow
your beautiful lips won't sing this song
And I won't even try to
Prevent the coming of the end
Of all that's wrongly left now
Your beautiful lips won't sing no song
For both my ears are deaf now
Your beautiful lips won't sing this song
For there's no reason why now

You Made Me Forget

Red rose flower once again
Lose your faith in years
I am sniffing confidence
the only way I know
But I can't seem to spit a word, frozen, pale as a bone
You return back and you know
But you don't hope now
I will find the trick to make
you speak the word, I know
You will make me forget, someday came so early
You have gone away for real
I will heal
R/I can wait until you know that we're the same
Smoke is coming out your nose and your sad face
Shows me what I did, I see you walk away
And I keep mumbling your name
Streets are filled with your perfume
Still I'm with the face on, the way that makes you annoyed
You're calm and lovely when you stare but you don't talk a lot
You've been gone away too long
But I remember
R/
I am calm beneath your balcony as you open the door
I can see that my mistakes still keep staining my floor
I know that I cannot dream I'm not allowed to hope
But I'm still where we once met
R/
