Cutting the Thread

It's been many years now, locked in this prison of a home
A hell with bay windows and patio doors
I've watch as the wishes of those I love whither at your feet.
I've seen my desires sacrificed for your own petty needs
You destroyed my life, my dreams and hopes of someday
Breaking free and moving into the light beyond your shadow
You made the mistake of loosening my leash
And once I've tasted the light there's no living without
I may be just a broken down spirit, cold and dark inside like you
But I can still cut you and I've got the salt to make it sting
You hang your lies over my head by the tiniest thread
What will you do when your lies come crashing down?
All around you; a life's work of pain and deceit, shattered glass at your feet
What would you do if they found out who you were inside?
Just a selfish brat, caring about nothing unless it's yourself
When you look in the mirror do you see what I do?
A monster behind a mask, choking on smoke
I block my ears to your words, they burn anyway
I'll leave you with your misery that you've created
So carefully around yourself, trapping you inside
I'm going from the darkness to bathe in the warmth of the sun.

I Don't Believe in Love

I don't believe in love,
It's fairy tale that never comes true.
I don't believe in love,
Because love never follows through.

Please tell me why
I should believe a lie
I don't believe in love.
Love is just an illusion
Confusion and delusion
I don't believe in love

I don't believe in love,
It's a story to help you sleep at night.
I don't believe in love
It's both a legend and a painful plight

Please tell me why
I should believe a lie
I don't believe in love.
Love is just an illusion
Confusion and delusion
I don't believe in love

I don't believe in love
In the end it always makes you cry
I don't believe in love
When he leaves me with Good-bye

Sadistic Devotion

Sweet dreams, Good night
Whisper softly, "Put out the light"
Warm lips, Love erased
Fade away, Warmth's replaced
Cold ice, Visions gone
And its hours until the dawn
Red roses, Candle stick
Melt away, Burnt out the wick
Salty tears, Broken glass
The love we had is lost, Collapse
Pained screams, Star watch
Fall away, Drunk half the scotch
Bruised cheek, Kisses sweet
Lost words when fist and face meet
Sadistic devotion, Amorous hate
Waste away, but it's too late.
