When I close my eyes I'm struck by evanescent waves.
As reality fades into the ambience, I'm just a slave to what could be.
Inner reflection disintegrated tests the twisted third mind,
Tainted from eating strange fruit from the poisonous tree.

The waves shock my psyche,
Leaving me dazed is their objective.
The tremors massacre my senses,
Unable to decipher the secret weapon.

Truth shrouded by night,
Lost, staggering in the dark.
A flicker in the abyss,
Brittle blades buried in hearts.

The surface of consciousness,
Sucking up space and time within its grooves.
Daring to challenge reality,
But not ready to lose.

Have you ever realized you’re in love with a dream?
And when you wake up late at night all you hear is your screams.

Look into my mind,
Taste my essence and don my weight.
You can always deceive yourself,
But you can’t hide from fate.

All I see are beams of light,
Encapsulated by the dark.
The blinds cloak the insight,
Shadows pounce at the smallest spark.

A desolate pit lies within me,
Begging to be filled.
A glint at the end of the tunnel,
Pleading not to be killed.

Is there hope for the end?
With every word my heart beats faster.
Inching closer to oblivion,
Teetering towards disaster.

No way to explain this feeling.
Horrible harmony leaves me numb.
Dulls all of the pain,
Piercing my gut like rum.

Do you ever wonder what its like?
When all you have left is your mind in a sprawl.
Clutching to fragments of fiction,
Because they're better than nothing at all.

Banshee

I was warned to beware of the banshee,
You once were everything…
I was warned to beware of the banshee,
You once were everything
To me.

Your voice was my ambrosia,
The sweet sound enough to make me soar.
Now all I hear is the wail of a banshee,
That makes me shiver to the core.

The nexus to my soul,
The missing puzzle piece to my mind.
In you I saw myself,
But now my eyes are blind.

I was warned to beware of the banshee,
But I've never been one, to listen to advice.
I was lured by your infectious beauty,
Your touch, cold as ice.

I was warned to beware of the banshee,
You once meant everything…
I was warned to beware of the banshee,
You once meant everything,
To me.

Swallow my heart, and feed my soul.
Trapped in a maze that feels so cold.
Clutchin to a dream that’s been sold,
Now I don't have to do, what I'm told.

Look in my eyes,
You'll see a dream thats vague n blind
Ambitions for an evil that plagues my mind
A cloak of deceit keeps all the snakes confined
Searching for truth, no relief till its fate I find.

Sweet sorrow hold me, let me embrace the pain.
Syringe to your arm while I chase the vein,
A fitting fate, n you know I can't take the blame

If beauty is black, then pleasure is pain
And hate is love,
I know when we die,
I won't see you straight above.

Now see
I was told to beware of the banshee
You don't mean anything…

Now see

I was told to beware of the banshee,

You don't mean anything

To me.
