Undress your costumed phrases,
Slip off their lingerie...
Never shall you wake from your bed of broken...
Yet you shall sleep in peace...
I've been glued back together,
Just like a broken vase...
Lately I've just felt like crying,
Like there's nothing that I can do...
No matter how they try,
It always seems to me...
The wounds are healing over,
The blood no longer flows...
I see tears welling in your eyes,
It is not a big surprise...
I will always try my best
To be true to who I am...
A silhouette against the horizon,
Black against a screen of blood red...
She slithers across the grimy earth,
This is not where she belongs...
"Don't fly too close to the sun my child,
Your wings will melt and burn."...
One cup of being away from you,
One ounce of sleepless nights...
