[dissociation]
sterile (like the plague) {broken/fixed}
you're so pretty you're so pretty
you're an angel shiny and new
you heal me- - and our love
you cleanse and you clean is strong
you are the one like the wind
for me in summer
and I knew
you're so pretty that I flew
you're an angel when I fell
you bring peace down on you
that is purer and we are both
than death itself strong, independent
you bring rest like two
you are half of me taken from one
you are my soul and I knew
and as I speak these words that I flew
please stop crying when I fell
down on you
and you heal me- - and you took
you heal me up to
you heal like the plague that high spot
on the mountain
and you cure me- - and we flew
cure me like no one like two
you cure like the plague angels out of hell
down to the water
hear me now preach like a savior
curse like a sailor
you cure like the plague you cure like that plague
you heal like the plague
sterile like the plague
and you're so pretty
my angel
you do what no one else can
so pure
and holy
healing
you're like the plague
burning through my veins
you move me...
[dissociation] dark day sitting on a street corner watching the dark world pass me by waiting for the clouds to fall what if there is no sun at all in this dark day dark creatures crawl out of the distance (darkness) not quite sure if they are coming towards me not quite sure if i would care anyway hearing their dark words, i turn and look away hearing the winds blow by in the darkness the tears dry so fast and i hear a movement over there and i fear, could it be the dark serpent coming for me again? to take me away? i have to escape this darkened urban decay and i feel the acid rain burn down to the ground the scorching tears of the clouds cast down on me and as i try to get away i soon realize i can never get as far away as i want to so i fall and i land and as my blood mixes with the wet acid on the ground i hear the sound of someone dying the air around me is thick with the smell of tears wept but not by me thick with darkness and death, a fog so thick it is inescapable and i try to look around, but i cannot see not even a shadow and i burn with an anger fueled by darkness and despair that fills my eyes and i hurt with a hatred of this hunger for light that reaches out and takes a hold of me and i kill with a passion and a vengeance all of the demons around me and in my smile am i insane again? there are no shadows surrounding me am i just another lost soul battling, searching for an escape from my own unconsciousness? and i'm all alone in the darkness again without a shadow or a soul to comfort me and i shall not fear, for everyone else is in hiding and i can run but i can never hide but the darkness absorbs my pain that is its dark gift and we lost all our power in that dark day now we're cold, waiting for the black sun to rise and take his place in the burning night sky...
[dissociation]
captivity [the captive]
here it comes again
to take my soul
captured
and raptured
here it comes again
coming for me
it takes me
to my familiar cell
it leaves me
and I begin to wonder
here it comes again
to take my soul
here it comes again
it's all i know
scratching and scraping
i'm gaining ground
breaking free
freedom, how sweet the sound
slowly but surely
my wall breaks down
and once again I have broken free
but what do i do now?
a lonely escapee
a lowly refugee
i can hear it coming for me
pitiful nothingness
and i wait, it watching me
and coming for me again
here it comes again
to take my soul
here it comes again
it has control
molding me into
what it wants me to be
slowly but surely
it has corroded me
it protects me
but i feel confined
[i can't live this way, i'm just a captive]
[the life i lead is not my own, this doesn't belong to me]
to lead a nothing life
in a nothing world so blind
and here it comes again
it's calling me
i guess it's better this way anyway
i have no will to be free
there was no way for me to survive anyway
just wasn't meant to be
so i sink and drown.
