mother wept
her screams were silenced
by strange apparitions
angels fled
shadows danced
as a corpse
she layed still
december
brought harsh winds
like voices
through her walls
lucid dreams
silhouettes
mother wept
her children died
they took their lives
as she slept
lucid
horribly lucid
motionless
in terror
she watched
as she lost
those who
brought her flowers
so she may
lay her own
upon their graves
now she sits
alone in her bed
a gun in her hand
she puts it to her temple
and pulls the trigger
she pulls the trigger…

suicide temple
her monument of failure
her bedroom
her chapel of emptiness
sinking through
In tragic memories
her blue flame
is her desparation
makeup drips from her eyes
tears fall down a pale face
makes her beauty fade
theres no point in staying here
she faces the world
from the 13th floor
and falls down to the streets
her ghost will always haunt
those who couldn’t save her
her ghost will always linger
in my dreams
i want to sleep forever
i want to sleep forever
i want to sleep forever

through these dark corridors
the preist wore a sinister smile
his flesh white as his collar
an altar boy
convulsing on the floor
malevolent men gather
to indulge in flesh
their lust no longer suppresed
lightning struck
as if the wrath of god
as if he would ever care
its only now that the boy realized
“hell is empty, and all the devils are here”
as he walked home that night
he realized he could tell no one
he would be a faggot
and no one would care
if he ended everything tonight
he went to the bathroom
and found his father’s razor
he dug in to his wrists
until scarlet flooded the floor
hell is indeed empty
but even the devils have fled
and nothing is left
nothing…

isabelle…
memories of moonlight and snow
your hair blowing in the wind
a cast on your arm
I watched through tearing eyes
knowing soon I’d never see you again
how i wanted
to be by your side
I wanted
to guide your way that night
through the darkness
but you just fell…
fell in to the abyss
And if I could I would have saved you
But you just wanted to go
leave without me
for I was never enough
for I have always been nothing
nothing…
