It's the bird that starts it all
That damn stupid bird
Screaching the morning awake
With its pitiful cries
...
It wasn't all that good before the quarrel
You could smell it coming, it was in the air
The day was beautiful as they sat in silence
The silence that started it all
...
Darkness is like a disease
Once you catch it you find there is no cure
You can feel your world sliding away
As you die slowly and silently
...
Do you know the girl just down the street?
Yeah, you know the one
With her skeleton body
And sunken eyes
...
I love how you never were there,
never there to see me cry
you never once saw me shed my tears
and that’s exactly what I love about you
...
If I was to fall in love
With the devils son
Shall I willingly dance down
Into the dark abyss
...
Secrets In The Dark
Each night
I peer out my window
To watch him stride
With grace
Down the street
And past my window
Him
Who I am not allowed to look at
Him
Who I am prohibited to speak of
Him
Who I am forbidden to speak to
And Him
Who I am definitely not permitted to think of
Although I break two of these ruls
Every night
As I hide behind my curtains
In my dark room
Taken over by curiosity
That will
Without doubt
Stop the beating of my longing heart
As danger wanders
The dimly lit street
His eyes drifting along drawn curtains
And closed windows
And I know
What I was never meant to know
I know his secret.
