Ruby Nights

Ruby Nights

The dusking starlight
Hides fading screams
But bares the troubles
Of confused dreams

These ruby nights
With burning sorrows
Suffused by smoke
Which chokes desire

In spinning darkness
With endless echoes
Of unwanted chatter
Craving silent rest

These ruby nights
With burning sorrows
Suffused by smoke
Which chokes desire

Tormented murmers
Delay the fears
Won't ease the doubt
Of scattered reason

These ruby nights
With burning sorrows
Suffused by smoke
Which chokes desire

No pleasing touch
In the deadly cut
Unfinished torture
Of mortal flesh

These ruby nights
With burning sorrows
Suffused by smoke
Which chokes desire

Restless movements
Conceal the agony
Or anguished memories
And solitary denial

These ruby nights
With burning sorrows
Suffused by smoke
Which chokes desire

Hunt The Angels

Hunt The Angels

The morning star
Will hunt the angels
A vampire's kiss
Is an eternal gift
So tie the knots
By a unicorn's side

The skies will storm
To drown the angels
A sorcerer's curse
Is a dying wish
So pray for joy
And dance tonight

The ropes are wound
To hang the angels
The siren's song
Is a home found
So build four walls
And keep us inside

Before We Fall

Before We Fall

It seems that it's time again
To wear our broken wings
Before we fall much further

But in this decadent life
We can't be allowed to fly
Generations without redemption
A spider's web full of lies

It seems that it's time again
To wear our broken wings
Before we fall much further

But though we save ourselves
The rest are left to die
Though we can't stop to mourn
Salt raindrops still fall below

It seems it's time again
To wear our broken wings
Before we fall much further

But even if it's all forgotten
Not a soul could forgive us
With just our sorrowful grief
And broken wings behind us

Fantasy

Fantasy

If I was your fantasy
What happened to your dreams
Did you just wake up
Or did they turn to nightmares

You left me lying naked
On my own bedroom floor
My mind rejecting my body
Which you used so mercilessly

If I was your fantasy
What happened to your dreams
Did you just wake up
Or did they turn to nightmares

There's no time to wonder why
You caused my soul to die
Leaving your anger behind
To shout above my screams

If I was your fantasy
What happened to your dreams
Did you just wake up
Or did they turn to nightmares

Now I inhabit the park
Where so many have died
And I tie the rope tight
Ready to repeat history

If I was your fantasy
What happened to your dreams
Did you just wake up
Or did they turn to nightmares

You appeared as I expected
To meet for one last time
But in the end you lost
As I left you there to hang

Where The Trees Wave

Where The Trees Wave

Where the trees wave
I sit by the river
And watch the years
As they all drift by

Birds sing sweetly
Their lullaby of love
Sharing dark passion
As my heart sleeps on

Where the mountains rest
I sit by the river
And watch the years
As they all drift by

The earth tells tales
Of brave corruption
To break my heart
With another demon

Where the grasses whisper
I sit by the river
And watch the years
As they all drift by

Nature makes a pillow
Of comforting thorns
To spite my elegy
Of damned lost hope

Where the trees wave
I sit by the river
And watch the years
As they all drift by

Where the trees wave
I sit by the river
And watch the years
As I let them drift by

Lost Before Dawn

Lost Before Dawn

The houses are burning
Inside the city walls
Pillaging our riches
Rape is rife once more

But no need to worry
The city will not stand
We'll be lost before dawn

The queen taken hostage
Stripped of her powers
New slaves are taken
As she hangs to die

But no need to worry
The queen will not live
We'll be lost before dawn

The families are broken
To cry alone at night
No love to nurture us
Just to numb our hearts

But no need to worry
The love will not last
We'll be lost before dawn

Let Me Use You

Let Me Use You

I stood at your corner
Where you looked back at me
You think I didn't notice
But now I know your feelings

So let me truss you up
Then I'll dress you down
Let me use you
Like you want me to

They all say you hate me
But we always end up alone
Then those cutting words
Break you into a blush

So let me truss you up
Then I'll dress you down
Let me use you
Like you want me to

I used to see you everywhere
Now you're always busy
You don't trust yourself
When you're around me

So let me truss you up
Then I'll dress you down
Let me use you
Like you want me to

The Rain Just Keeps Falling

The Rain Just Keeps Falling

Fractions of a puddle
Concealed in rippling waves
A perfect reflection
For my broken thoughts

You can't see my crying
The rain just keeps falling
Though I'm starting to die
It all makes sense

The trees are weeping
Laden down by tears
Sympathise with my sorrow
And scream with my mind

You can't see my crying
The rain just keeps falling
Though I'm starting to die
It all makes sense

The mud soaks me up
Returns me to the earth
For I don't belong here
I'm rejected once again

You can't see my crying
The rain just keeps falling
And though I'm dying
It all makes sense

Liquid Gold Raindrops

Liquid Gold Raindrops

I found myself alone
Crying out my happiness
In liquid gold raindrops

Though there's so much
I can't seem to find it
And these precious tears
Won't befriend me

I found myself alone
Crying out my happiness
In liquid gold raindrops

These tears fall for ever
To disappear in sorrow
Not a golden glimmer
To betray my guilt

I found myself alone
Crying out my happiness
In liquid gold raindrops

Never tell my secret
Keep it trapped inside
Covered in cold metal
From my heart of ice

I found myself alone
Crying out my happiness
In liquid gold raindrops
