Denials Lullaby

Hands on mirrors… on that faulty perfection
Animosity in the eyes of that reflection
Nothing but loathing against broken glass
you are just another hurdle I couldn’t surpass

Darkness reverberates against my spine
The echoes of love that will never be mine
don’t worry your secrets wont escape
Your threats work just as well as tape…

And you muddle this love into a chaotic riddle
Those lips of your cause me to be stuck in the middle
Waiting for clouds to come roaring down
Happy that maybe they’d bury this town

…Where has my strength hidden today?
I’m just a coward who wants you to stay…
Let the sweet songs of denial play…
Or maybe its finally ran away…

I wait for those eyes… gold and dead
The monster sleeping in its bed
How can you radiate such beauty for me?
you wake and cause me such agony…

Shadows descend on this broken body
Yet your eyes still burn.. Cold and haughty
You play your games in this bed where I lay
You fickle, sweet demon, you love to betray

Your hand falls cold against mine and stings
Groping, scaring, caressing, my strings
Pulling me by my faulty affections
Those lips are a noxious imperfections

…Where has my strength hidden today?
I’m just a coward who wants you to stay…
Let the sweet songs of denial play…
Or maybe its finally ran away…
