Sleepy Venus
she whispers to me she wants to tempt me she sees through me speaks to me in silence lucid, trance sublime sleepy Venus shines she circles me transcending time leaving this world behind she writhes and dives with me secrets from the other side i look through her eyes like a spark burst into flame i am the muse rising
gliding through this time mesmerize dreaming, loose, free ride come and fly melting inside share with you this time take a piece of my mind are you holding on what will you find? there once was an ailing child i touched his fevered head i secretly wished his illness out into me instead if it would only snow now i would know what to do i know my imagination is part of God and you there are reasons we don't think out loud i drank it like a poison and I knew I wouldn't die but I wasn't sure I couldn't and I didn't know quite why enjoy my lilt between this place and all my dreams blue lights show me what needs to be seen between this place and all my dreams if it would only come now i would know what to do then i could see the future what's the matter, baby? was it that i was a little too real? that I didn't just spread, didn't kneel what's the matter, baby? Yeah did you want me did you want me near? i do you i'm a different type of creature than the sort you tend to meet here and I'll wear this dizzy and sick open heart open
steel on my heels echoes in dark my suit of leather has fused with my skin more than just human, fire breathe in i'm a few degrees colder inside pounding heart, steady drive i was raised to be your victim you were bred to be my fear sharpening this piercing glare you don't know how deep I dare you were bred to be my fear sharpening this piercing glare you don't know how deep I dare i am the goddess to whom I pray power within me, respect and obey breaking out of this world i know what is true acknowledge my spirit watch it burst through you'll pray to me you'll beg for me souls of mankind blinded with sight what do I see? transformed immortal illusion if you could choose, what would you be? ................................................................................................
kill, kill, kill my arms don't fit all the way around me your shallow soul keeps you from harm my mind is a steady hum but I'm not too weak to throw a dagger your way no sleep no hunger an occasional evil thought so here I am finally sitting here all twisted up in my Rotting inside there are some times when I should be alone cause if you saw me my demons be shown i hear the voices in my head sometimes they’re devious sometimes they’re violent feel like a shiver, exposed feel like a splinter shattered bone feel like a strangle chaos groans i’m afraid of everybody, Haunted can you take this need from my hands can you take this need tired of holding the seems choking in this dream Horehound faceless wakes the day bearing down on lives less lived time is whittled down to shards of lonely moments leaves dry thin falling dead to dropping Fahrenheit it slows for no one, grip unbroken residing in the bones and memories march to know you're sinking slower than if you stood still, but still, the day bears down with sick perfection now, gathered at your heels i'm time, not kind nor cruel perceive me as so many do you blame me for you i can't hear the truth in my head, she said it's dark and twisting let me be free 40Hz Automatic moonlight vision is slight it's all glitter nightlife all scene and sound it's all glitter hold tight what can't be found it's made me bitter this life is a state of mind and who will be the one to say what you are? Holocene confusion fills my head today what motivates me on this path I take? so full of fear and self-delusion when will I learn to trust the hand of fate? close your eyes don't ask why you just might see somethin' close your eyes not too tight you just might feel somethin' close your eyes you might hear somethin' close your eyes you might be somethin' it's not what I want it's the will Real Time the filter is on the filter is in it sits in front and thins the fire breathed in we'll let your mind lag behind lay to rest the drag, slow, sinking, swim it's a plain warm erase to clear the plate of existence and it's guaranteed to make more sense when it's all set aside it's just the way that we are that puts us in this position to make anything more than nothing when we turn out the lights i've scattered my thoughts colors on a screen surrender to the weight that pulls me under time to release slow energy a new reality |
