ANYBOdy’s daughter


Of a perfect life she’s hoping

Constant war waged on her heart

Not again she cries she’s broken

Wishing on a dying star


When she’s gone he cries out

For her love he missed out

Gently choosing not to be


She’s drowning in the water

Ophelia falling she’s coming undone

She’s anybody's daughter

Losing her mind she is falling in love


Said he loves the secrets of her heart

Believes him through his lying eyes

Father’s jealousy forbids them

Sweets onto her grave she lies

Tangled

If we could just be still in the mess I made

Familiar thoughts of you; sparkling fireflies that just won't fade

Hands interlocked in love,

making smile lines are longed for in the heart that I exchanged for mine

Without you my world is dim

Yet with you I'd still want him

Your light stays tangled in my dreams

The flicker burns me raw

Either way memories go unmade

It rips the void apart; caught between two hearts

Still anticipate you'll walk through the door

Existence realigns and I remember you don't live here anymore

Although I may he his, it's your heart that I grieve

Each night I fall asleep in the bed I made you leave

SAVE ME

Riding high atop your steed

A noble knight, a quest to win

A damsel, trapped, in need

She hears your battle cries

The blood you shed you poured for her

She waits for you and sighs

Don't come any closer

I'm not yours to conquer

I forged this throne Oh, this is my fortress

No, I'm not in distress

Return to your home

Many men have tried before

To captivate the siren's heart

Sanguine and assured

Will he heed her warning air

He journeys on unknowingly

She slays him without care

destroyed in delight


Heart shattered and beating far too fast

Breath is shallow, it’s getting hard to catch

Her head is pounding, blinking out the light

Nauseated and much too weak to fight


Honesty escapes your mouth

Guilt and shame are lost without

Apologies can’t fix this now

Destroyed in his delight


Hidden spirits, drowning in your glass

Medicated how long can this last

Faithless promise, been down this road before

Broken bottles screaming nevermore


She cries

All your lies

SUCCUMB TO SPLENDOUR

Forced to live in shadows

Caught in self-restricting chains

Struggling to break

Torn between a conscience

And the nature of a curse that rules her

Untamed and innate

Guilty feeling lures her

But she fights each tempted breath

Curiously dazed Lusting after victims

Hypnotized and unsuspecting of her

cunning wicked ways

She comes undone

Breaking gentle chains

She cries surrender

She comes undone

Letting go of blame

Succumb to splendour

Sanity has robbed her

Of her sense and centered heart

left the lady cursed

Cleverly she lingers

waiting on an unassuming prey

The object of her thirst

WITIGO

Witigo

The Cannibal will come for you in the night

Witigo

Lapping up the tears you tried not to cry

Face him in the darkest fears you know

Face him though each breath's consuming your soul

Thirsting for blood

Insatiable hunger

No chains will hold him down

Breathing fire

Taking over your spirit

The light won't keep him out

Astam

Come to me you beast with lust in your eyes

Astam

Silently betwixt the trees in disguise

Face me when the thirst takes over your soul

Face me when your body becomes Witigo

Witigo

The cannibal will come for you in the night

Face him in the darkest fears you know

Face him when darkness devours your soul

SAVAGE LOVE

Pulse elevating

Feeding the rush

Body over heart

Trust now ripped apart


Don’t pretend you didn’t know that this would happen

Lust is always born of greed


Savage love is not a pleasure for the weak

Forcing Samson down onto his knees

Clawing at flesh you hardly know until it bleeds

Awakening the beast inside of me


Silence your conscience

No one can know

See, now comes the dawn

Find your salvation


Crossed that final line

You can’t go back in time


Don’t pretend you didn’t know that this would happen

Lust is always born of greed

Ignore the guilt, forget regret until it’s over

Satisfying every need

WHISPER

Go now to sleep my darling

Rest sweetly in my arms

Find your peace in the morning

I’ll keep you safe from harm

Find your peace in the morning

I’ll keep you safe from harm

Sweet silent budding flower

Longing to brightly bloom

Crushing fist of carnations

Sing lullaby of doom

Crushing fist of carnations

Sing lullaby of doom

Find your peace in the morning

I’ll keep you safe from harm

Cold as the dew of autumn

Pale as the winter’s snow

Whispers, your breath forgotten

Angels will call you home

Whispers, your breath forgotten

Angels will call you home
