I stabbed myself in the eye
And tore out my heart
I keep them in a drawer
In the dark
For the moments I may forget
What you did –
I’ll force myself to relive
–self-inflicted depression
I stabbed myself in the eye
And tore out my heart
I keep them in a drawer
In the dark
For the moments I may forget
What you did –
I’ll force myself to relive
–self-inflicted depression
The devil was beating his wife
Her world was full of strife
So she fell in love with a man
Corrupted by her own hand
She dragged him down to hell
Told him he was an angel
Then the devil clipped his wings
Told him he’d live like a king
As long as he did his bidding
Lilith was quite upset
Over the betrayal of her pet
She gobbled him up in one bite
And was overrun with blight
The Devil then cast her aside
And when the tears fell from her eyes
The sun shone brightly over wet skies
The temperature rose
Water on the horizon
Flooding, it carried us down
Through the dunes
Feeling doomed
We neared the end
So we sat down
Upon your chin
And sank into the sand
Until you swept us away
With your pruned hand
Praying it would be the same
Hoping to never feel this way again
A moment suspended in time
Trapped in my own mind
Reliving that summer
Again and Again
Was it all pretend?
The highlights
Of your dewy skin
Our youth
Beckoning
Waves crashing on my shore
The wet sand
As it was before
The moonlight
Shone so bright
It was just another night
But something wasn’t right
I screamed out
At the top of my lungs
It was all in good fun
Until I fell to my knees
Feeling everything
I just wanted to be free
Ears opened
Senses cued
Fresh intake
Feelings misconstrued
Present tinglings
Silent thoughts
A lit match
A mindset wrought
