When did I become invisible |
|
Where did I leave you |
|
Safe in the darkness |
|
Who will you be when I am not watching |
|
Who am I now it is dark |
| Smoulder in the night |
|
Extinguish the flame |
|
Burn without brightness |
|
Uselessly mouthing the dreams of expectation |
|
Floundering in the quietness |
|
|
Should I start here |
|
Forget me as you flee |
|
Leave messages for my friends |
|
I will burn in my own speculation |
|
And you won't dare look back |
| Did you have a broken doll when you were a child |
|
Did you snap its head off |
|
Obscure the slowly closing eyes |
|
The plastic stump remains behind |
|
Testament to your will |
|
|
We lied together as we lay together |
|
We sought the consolation of illusion |
|
Better to mislead than to believe |
|
Closing my eyes to pretent there was brightness |
|
Blackening the light entertainment |
| It would be easier if we were broken |
|
It's hard to watch this dark perfection |
|
Intricate shadows in the night |
|
The dark machinery of our intentions |
|
Silent inquisition without sight |
|
