I hammered the nails into the sky
that just kept passing my wishes by
and by and by over and over again;
I tried to swallow the Super Nova
that left my head aching
from a Halo that got severed today;
and again I heard nothing but the silence
falling from my tears of never knowing
when this madness would come to an end for me?
I stared into your eyes
but I got nothing in return
except for the coldness that exceeded
past its saving grace for me;
it was almost as if the stars
tried to make me believe again;
but even I know that wishful thinking
has dwindled down into my calloused hands
for the very last time.
you could say that this could be
another epilogue written out in
a staind blood shed for me;
but as my breath slowed; slowed;
slowed down into a numbing pulse
I began to see the scars fold over
my eyes that caused my Angels
to disguise themselves as a decoy
laughing into the Northern Star.
my throat was swollen
from the noose that tried
to make me committ suicide this time;
but as I tried to look away from your
seductive eyes;
you took my cheek staind tears
in your hands and pulled me close
to your lips that whispered to me the words,
"I love you for who you are."
soon the earth began to shake, quake
into a pivoting fault that left
the air thick; covered in nothing but dust;
I took those words that you just spoke to me
and I held on to them as tight as I could
against my fragile heart;
and I let time discuss the outcome of my fate
that ended up on the 10 O'Clock news
of another woefull soul that
got lost in the depression of life.
