An Angel's Lie

Forever more, the blessed be
Forever falling, they shant desire
Forever waiting, the angels sigh
Forever needing their golden lyre

To sing their songs of sweet redemption
While we wait in our hallucination
And tasting of the fire of eternal damnation
And while we linger in our amiable deception

And though the blood of our martyrs has been split
The scars on our souls will never fade
Though we preach of good will and prejudice to none
The bond holding our lives has at last been frayed

Looking at you reminds me of such
These deadly gazes hold the key
Yet like light to flies I linger in your dark glow
In your shallow heart of pleasure and hidden glee

Fatal Facet

Ectopic dreams and stillborn nightmares
Chills and shockwaves breaking my sytem
Destroy, destroy
Depleat me, my desperado
Longing, forever longing
For the astral sunset with an iridescent glow
To shine againist your deathliness
To make you forget your carnage and hate
In the rainbow sunset of begotten dreams
Its become redundant, in this matter
In our games or give and take and hide and seek
Forgetting myself in my hiding place
And losing myself within you embrace
And this world, it just keeps spinning
Though time is still and all is dead
I just can't seem to let go and fly
Because I'm still concious and so aware
That I can't do anything but watch
Forever observing
From the shadows
