Happy Mother's Day.
For it comes but once a year.
To a mother who loved her children.
Who held them close and dear.
...

As I walked over a hill in my dream...
a graveyard came into view.
A circle of people all dressed in black
...

Amanda...
Down in the well.
...

I wish I could have seen it.
The dark beauty is translucent,
A rose reflection without petals,
The dry waterfall tastes so bitter.
...

Distinguishing remnants.
The peace heart is broken.
Insects betray their king.
Raging conflictions.
...

Young dumb fun swallow my tongue
This ones for you
Imagination fixation on three dirty blondes
Why cant you see your not the one for me
...

To my daughter, Lyla.
You are my baby...
...

Bloodlust in the shadows.
Eyes as white as snow.
...

Its so hard to love you...when you just run away.
I reach out to kiss you...then you turn your face.
I remember the old days...when you used to say,
I love you darling...may our love never fade.
...

Your pride will hide your glow.
There's nowhere left to go.
...

She kisses the wind in a cemetery.
So deranged but such a beauty.
...

Young, dumb and beautiful
She is everything I need
Young, dumb and beautiful
She means the world to me
...

If you should find yourself alone.
Sitting outside in the cold.
Crying with a broken heart, in fear.
...

Seems Ive lost my way.
In the dark theres no shade.
I turn the other cheek.
See your cold eyes glaring hate at me.
...

In a beautiful meadow of roses,
she lays silent and still.
Skin has turned white.
Hazel eyes to clear.
...

To the sex god... I hail to thee.
To the high god... I do believe.
In my fantasies... Deep in dreams.
Crystal lines... to please thee.
...

going, going, going down...
going, going, going down...
going, going, going down...
down, down, down, down,
...

Dead and hollow, emotionless and free.
I am now something that you will never be.
My teeth are sharp, I stab through the heart.
Got you in my arms, so tender and soft.
...

Sickly deceiving, never beleiving.

Disease is what you breathe.
...

In the darkest dream, I see, I blindly followed you.

There was something inside I couldnt see.
