“Darkness Breeds”
Darkness breeds
Endless needs
Hellfire breathes
As darkness breeds
Life stands still
Hopeless will
Voices shrill
As life stands still, as life stands still
Chorus:
The night’s filled with the broken hearted
Lives spent with the days uncharted
Stuck in the emptiness and the hollow
Of the darkness and the sorrow
Don’t give a damn about tomorrow
Hell is your nightmare
Death will take you there
Hell is your nightmare
Let me take you there
Illness comes
Dying young
Life succumbs
As illness comes
Pain is real
Sharp as steel
Crying kneeled
Cuz pain is real, cuz pain is real
Repeat chorus

“The Eyes of a Child”
An old wise man stopped
A little girl to say,
“Be careful, little girlie,
Be careful what you say.”
The little girl replied,
“Hush, old man, I speak to pray.”
“But who is listening on the other side
To a little girl who’s full of lies?”
“I pray to be forgiven.
My sins He has stricken, and
Therefore, do not lead to my demise.”
With rolling thunder and a strike of lightning,
The old wise man turned into something frightening.
Blood dripped from his jaws after he bit the neck
Of the little girl who was all dressed in red.
The old wise man laughed and laughed,
Until he realized the little girl was laughing too.
The old man asked the little girl,
“Why do you laugh before you die?
Is it because you believe in heaven?”
The little girl stopped laughing long enough to reply,
“No, that’s not why After all, that heaven exists is just a lie.
Isn’t that right?”
“Then, why may I ask are you laughing, too?”
“Because a demon with a bigger bite is standing right behind you.”

“When That Time Comes”
Going to cry
Sincerely, going to cry
Really wishing
I would die
Palms are sweaty
Eyes filled with tears
My whole body
Shaking from fear
I just don’t get it
Why me?
Why me?
My spirit’s bound
Longing to be free
Just pull the trigger
And I’m done
My hand firmly grips
The butt of the gun
The barrel sets
Between my lips
The gun comes to rest
At my hips

“Seduction”
I have a secret
Come fly with me
I’ll take you on a
magical fantasy
Ride
Don’t be shy
It’s only for
Just one night
I’ll wrap you in a lover’s embrace
And of me you shall taste
I’ll be your ambrosia
And brighten your aura
You’ll feel an explosion
Of raw emotion
You are my heartbeat now
I am your soul
Intertwined
We are made whole
Never more
Shall you survive
Without me
By your side
One night of love
Is now forever
For eternity
Joined together

“Shackled and Chained”
I’m shackled and chained
Feeling indescribable pain
Trying to escape
Yanking down on the drapes
They fall to the floor
As I hear you at the front door
I get to my knees
Just able to see the trees
I drop and I sigh
Nothing there but trees and sky

“Broken”
Emptiness
A deep hole
Hollowed out
By false promises
And shattered dreams
A hole where a heart
Once filled with laughter and joy
Used to be
Now, nothing
Nothing but pain
From lies, deceit and manipulation
No need to even hear explanations
Loss that makes you grieve like someone passed
Only noone has
I have been hurt so much
That I feel my soul is bleeding
No healing touch from God can make this better
The pain is too deep for even prayers to reach and make me whole
I fall into a pit of despair
The hands of hell catch me as I fall
I am swallowed by the depths of anger, bitterness, and resentment
My heart explodes within me
I am too broken to heal

“The Bath”
lying here
eyes half-closed
listening to the whispering winds
that say I told you so
heart real heavy
mind unclear
soaking in a red bath
and recalling everything that set me on this path
the ripples in the water
each a reminder of a fatal mistake in my life
‘til I lie still
making them disappear at will
head leaning to the side
eyes fully closed
wishing I could turn back time
and say this fate ain’t so

“Foreboding”
I slit my veins
Black blood drains
Licking my wrist with my tongue
Freed from chains
From which my body strains
A weakening of my lungs
Freed from pain
These bodily remains
Feeling only like I’ve been stung
Freed from an idle brain
My epitaph explains,
“Upon her every word, he hung.”

“A Godless Act”
Sweating profusely
One arm holding down her hands
My other hand covering her mouth
Lest someone hear
My sinful deeds I do aspire
With every second I perspire
Brushing my forehead across my arm
Her frantic struggle leading me on
Her bare teeth against my palm
But that sets off no alarms
I have her good and bound now
And right where I want her
There is no one to free her
There is no one to see her
Everything in my mind starts to blur
I take from her her innocence
For a sudden rush, an orgasmic sense
Nothing matches this feeling I have
As I remove myself from within her
With every lover the stronger I get
Ah, to be a god, my goal be met

“The Awakening”
Eyes iced over
Flesh all frozen
Refrigeration for the dead
Darkness weakens
Counting sheep and
Trying to sleep but
Having no success
Ah, light by my head
Bright light shed
All over my head
Waking me up
Trying to move
Fingers following along a groove
Heartbeat stopped so abruptly
Head pops and snaps
Then neck just cracks
Awakening of a new soul
Hunger and thirst increase
Gnashing teeth and
Licking lips
As I break free from death’s grip
Someone’s here
Someone’s with me
Oh, how I love their scent
It’s so delicious
I long to lick him
So I get up
I creep up behind him
He turns and goes nuts
He runs from me
But I can’t let him go
I have to taste him
I bite off his nose
That is when
I lose all control
I fight with him
And pull him down
Hunger insatiable
In death, I’m unstable
Doomed to wander ‘til I’m free
Morgue door opened
My freedom chosen
Now, headed down these ravaged streets
I couldn’t stop biting him
Once he was on the ground
Back bone deep, I am bound
No heartbeat in me
Yet, I thrive
But it’s obvious
I’m not alive
When I’m done
I walk, I wander
I just feed
No time to slumber
Continuously moving forward
For whatever reason
To whatever end
Into the dark
I do descend
For forever, my eternity
