A Faceless Man






Oct 13, 2010









It melts away the sin.











if we've conceived the secrets,
what births the dawn to this endless night?
the equinox is set--we have no innocence left to kill










divide and rule the scattered remains
it's gone down now--too insane
and i've got scars that used to be veins
so why such idle hands?






hell enlightened to pretend
why do people pity them?
and the sour thorns caught on your tongue
shot insight through my veins again.
I let the ghost into my bed
'cause the chains won't keep--
forever asleep and crawling back into my head
blink a blind eye, coinside--
fade away or set it free.








fear and grace within a smile
with the dark shooting through your heart
your eyes will close and heaven knows
what's t lie beynd
meaningless, but not to me.
fighting back hysterically
anxiety will keep me near;
disreguarding all i hear

undeveloped, unrefined
but of course, truly mine.
can't escape it--
not today
the past will find me anyway
I've got a sory to tell--
blink a bind eye and tel it well
but literacy isn't all it's cracked up to be
when words fall on deaf ears.

shove a doorway into my soul;
and spill me onto the page until
I'm satisfied with the results--
ever insatiable, like clockwork gears.

like a child's fucking toy
lying charmed and corroded
but can aesthetics be enough to save a soul?
scream sanity, or plead defeat;
one half you, one half me.
