lost

i'm lost

tonight

down deep where

the dirt is like muddy waters

and the demons of the air

have the uncanny ability

to crush your chest cavity thin

it weans itself, but then as soon as it sees its chance

it wanders on by, taking whatever it pleases, or sees

...Anything could be something worth tormenting .

i'm supposed to be fighting

the demon, the devil in disguise

tonight his tricks are like kitten licks

and of course its easier just to play along.

to sing his song the way he's want it to be sung

to give his blood something to take from

he demands total allegiance, he demands complete loyalty

like a dog on a leash, at his feet with not a thought of her own.

he likes to hide in places where the dirt is

all those teeny tiny places you dont want to go to

and dont ever want to think about

he lives there.

now you live there too.

you want to think he doesn't have you

but he does.

he has you tied in knots, and tied up, down. sideways, backwards and

insideout.

he has me anyway.

he has everything i own

and everything i could become.

he has everything i fear.

he has everything i fear.

he has everything i fear in order to use it against.

her playful innocence.

her charming allure

her lovely intelligence

her box full of tears

she's got a pocket full of love on her

wherever she goes

whenever he's not taking her private attention

she'll find herself a pretty little charm, and a dance full of steps, a song sung

free and beautiful, and a love once innocent again.

i'm lost in a dream world

and in a dark world

and in a bittersweet world

down deep where

the dirt is like muddy waters

and the demons of the air

have the uncanny ability

to crush your chest cavity thin

and

she's got a pocket full of love on her

wherever she goes

whenever he's not taking her private attention

she'll find herself a pretty little charm, and dance a dance full of steps, a song

sung free and beautiful, and a love once innocent again.

Just WOW!
