Prince of Fools
He comes to me
Whispering words of freedom
Demanding to be exalted like a king
Commanding my knees to kneel
He laughs at my pain
And foolish attempt to fight
Against the chains
Binding my soul to his
Monster, can you not see
How broken your heart is?
Green eyes reflecting anguish
Hate is coursing through your veins
End this madness
Let me love you
And heal the wounds of the past
Reseal the broken spirit
My little raven
Fly and be free
Don't let the world hold you down
Let go of envy
For it has enslave you
Come and find peace
In lover's embrace
Conscious:
The dead they speak if you listen,
They whisper in your ear,
You look at them and laugh,
But when the lights go out it is them you fear.
Those you’ve conquered,
Will haunt your mind,
From the hooks with their hair they hang,
Their skin slowly melts,
As their eyes re-open,
From the fire they sang.
Gather ‘round my little ones,
We have a yarn to spin,
Stare at the ground,
Don’t make a sound,
And listen to the whispers within.
Seems a high blunt taste
Seems a beautiful waste
Such an elegant shade
Why is it to fade?
Ribs so grey made?
Cities blind in chase
Pictures greased to phrase
Just as the cloudy air planes that soar above
Once playful raindrops, now gloomy love
Off painted scapes they shove
Colors in history glowed childishly
Every tint of earth poured meaningfully
Eyes to see beyond what is to be seen
Textures and radiance never better then what could have been
Pinnacle in the canvas of the wind so lean
Glass works sculpted of broken diamonds too keen
Else Heaven bend to re-imagine
