The moon drips on my face
I lay tranquil in darkness
Lost in my emptiness
I sigh with the loss of everything that ever meant anything

I rise from my slumber
Plucking fruit from the tree
It withers beneath my touch

I've slept too long with the loss of you
I missed the taint created in the void
I miss my soul buried at my feet

Looking at the world through vacant eyes
Colors bled dry
Bleak shades of grey
I miss the signs of life

The winds whisper insanities in my ear
But the madness already fills my head


Snow falls upon the surface of the lake in which I wait
Bathed in onyx waters
Reflecting obscenities born inside my heart

Mists rise up to obscure lost humanity
I am a beautiful, empty ruin

I found my angel here
Midnight entered my soul with her deceit
I still feel her annnointed claws deep in my flesh
My skin still bears the burns of her self-righteous tongue

My scars gleam silver with the touch of moonlight
Showing me the reality I hide from myself
Now it's so clear
The flaws I tried to deny

And I stumble through the snowfall
Tears fall as the stars shine

Clinging to my bitterness
I keep grasping hope


Which slips through my fingers like blood
