Leah-
   She stands on the horizon
   of reality and dream.
   Surrounded by the piercing sounds
   of horrifying screams.
   An angel lost in emptiness
   which infinitely grows.
   A countenance of sadness
   is the only one she knows.
   Her long and streaming silver hair
   stands out upon her skin.
   Her face is very soft and pale,
   her body very thin.
   Her eyes contain a glimmer
   which she stole from hopeful men.
   Her beauty is comparable
   to nothing now or then.
   And always very softly singing
   sadly to herself,
   intoxicating melodies
   which lightly fade and melt.
   A siren song of beauty
   made from sorrow and from shame.
   But once you hear the words she sings
   you'll never be the same.
The Victim-
   Awakened by the piercing screams
   from memories of distant dreams.
   Distorted views of grays and black.
   The visions of a maniac.
   He journeys through his wretched mind
   on endless paths that twist and wind.
   He looks beyond his growing fear
   but only finds there's nothing there.
   The happiness he used to feel
   is nothing but a blur.
   His world is slowly dying
   and it's all because of her.
   He brought her here to share with her
   the beauty that it was.
   Her presence made the beauty wilt,
   that's all it ever does.
   It used to be a paradise,
   a place that he enjoyed.
   But since he heard her song
   it's all been wasted and destroyed.
   And now he's trapped inside this place
   with nothing but his fears
   and Leahs song of death
   forever ringing in his ears.
Leahs song-
(one verse)
   "For everyone is running
   toward a cliff they cannot see.
   Their fragile hearts and empty eyes
   is all they'll ever be.
   The love they feel is fading
   as it slowly floats away.
   While on they run from everyone
   through sorrow and dismay.
   And when they reach the cliff
   Their fragile hearts begin to crack.
   They've run too far from home
   and they would never make it back.
   The darkness then, they stare inside
   but find they can't see through it.
   With no where left for them to run
   they sadly dive into it.
   I will see your blooming garden,
   You will watch it wilt.
   We can make destruction take
   this world that you have built.
   You are free to come with me
   and listen to my song.
   But think about the choice you made
   when everything goes wrong."
