| Blood is all you have Harsh white light streams like my tears Surrounding me The blue walls turn to water Drowning me Smiling faces plaster the walls Lying to me But this is all I know I painted the walls I chose the faces I made me bed and now No I’ll lie in it With hollow frustration Because tonight sleep chooses another I am not worthy as I’ve done no good Today there will be no reward Today there will be no peace Your heart will continue it’s marching beat Driving your soul down Down into the ground Planting a single black rose on your grave Because only the good can sleep Tonight you will die slowly Permitted to cry only tears of blood You cannot mourn what you have not lost You cannot loose what you never had Words are all you have Your only friend And tonight they curse you They laugh at your frustration as you beg them: Explain all I am and all that I own But they hate you because you misuse them Speaking a snake of riddles and lies Ignoring the words pumping through your heart Your love song Thinking they’re not good enough for you The blue ink spilling As you lie there thinking Heart still beating as you cry Cry for the sleep that never comes The love you never had And the words that turn against you Cry little girl Cry tears of blood Blood is all you have now It’s all you know. |
