Pristine in Bondage

Bathroom mirror laughs so hard Scribbled lipstick shouting truth Years of whatever, decaying youth And I'm sorry but I think I cannot love you At least not tonight No I think I cannot love you I think I'd rather fight Rusty eyes and sleepy heart What comes together comes apart But all she ever stole The myth of love to make her whole Grasping for air in a room full of cyanide It's only a matter of time Before it all comes Crashing down Hoping for, for a miracle And I waited here to watch you Watch you brace yourself For when it all comes crashing Another story You could have been a heroine It could have been a fairytale You could have flaunted rosy cheeks Instead of fading into pale And you think that they might cry But you, you will be careless You'll be an angel Busy learning how to fly Never sleep and never rest Not with those cramps inside your chest Never without nightly sin Atropine, your heroine

John Doe, the answer to my prayers Won't you come alive in the picture that I painted Moon and stars won't you come to my rescue Let me enslave you, owning you will make me whole Green leaves won't you gather around me Keep me company and I'll never beg again Choose your revolution... Without arms We've got a war to fight Can't you see? My knight trapped in shining armor Take me far away, I know that you are real.

You couldn't find me anywhere Out at sea, deep under raging waves I swayed Captured in the arms of Poseidon I lost consciousness, once again Their voices laugh in ridicule Did you believe that you could survive? You know your sun burns way too fast And you are nothing without our wrath All my executioners wearing masks As I crawl in dirt to find The answer to a question never asked Is something true to me All familiar faces just like I recall Feels so good coming home Reach out your hand, wait for me there by the shore Unlock your door I'm coming home From the corals she emerged And she ripped away my chains But I never got to see her face From the oceans come what may She brought out the light of day But I never got to see her face When the sky puked out it's spears I opened my arms Cut in half I reached for your shadow While picking up the pieces I opened my eyes And I see that you're aiming for me

All of my nightmares you leave me sleeping Weighing my eyes down, everything's fading In the gutter of my mind I found my hero See I actually believed in such a thing as a hero And I crawled on my knees just to please you I'm just like all the rest, the second best The one who takes what she can get From where you're standing I never suffer Made of concrete I am breathless You must've confused me with someone else Someone who settles for being someone's whore Someone more like yourself And all the nightmares that I have You own my awakening But you leave me sleeping on Enjoying the thrill of my scream

Somehow in it for the chase so I run away I run like hell, don't think for a second that I wasn't prepared Strange you never did do ask why I always wore my winter coat For times like these when I'm forced out running in the snow All I asked for was the naked truth Was too much for you to handle Was too much for me to ask Every time that you fake a smile Play the martyr in the play Of the story about you and I Some days everything is red like roses without thorns Loves me loves me not, soft petals slowly hit the floor Are we supposed to spit it out until there's nothing left to break It's over now this is the end and you better understand Are we supposed to spit it out? Until there's nothing left to break Send a message that is loud and clear A message that's so simple That even you can hear They say it took you two whole days To find happiness again on the lips of another man

You smothered my beliefs to the point of nearly killing me When you gave me a name to carry with shame Show me mother, I've reached the point where I'm supposed to say Teach me again father, yet for some reason I am still waiting! Cast away now. Cut the moorings I've lived through the resurrection and can somehow say I'm on my way now, any day now Urged by my Katharsis In my world there's no bitterness I'm touched in more than one way, so natural, so beautiful!!! In my past world it was you who... You who triggered me... We need a burst of chaos to become clean and purified Neurotic cleansing disorder cease to be Venting emotions, my demons are alive Spiritual renewal, come come Katharsis

If I was brave I'd shut my mouth Put an end to our fights I'd jump into a neon light Taste the concrete and break my bones I could be born again As one of your lucky strikes If I wouldn't fuck up my mind from time to time... Constantly, I would drive myself insane I was always the December girl I never noticed them at all I slept through the summer And was drunk through the fall I am beautiful in the dark Everyone can be beautiful in the spotlight From far below All the praise falls to the floor I stand empty handed waiting for a little more I pop 24 pills a day, 8 with every meal Just to make it to the next place

He held me so tight as if to protect me From what? Maybe from himself I signed the contract that offers me protection If I follow all the rules See those wounds and bruises don't really prove much Some girls like it rough Some mean yes when they say no How is a man supposed to know? You came just as you saw Marilyn As if I wasn't there at all As if I was only a dream And you are my little angel but your wings are without use Cause you picked out all the feathers To draw a little blood just to make sure That you can bleed like if you where alive A train from heaven where we are the only passengers Without their eyes shooting out lightning of dirt That penetrates our skin And heads straight for our hearts You are my little angel High upon my pedestal Yea, you are my little angel God help man if you would fall

In dark alleys in big swirls She who dances with the crows As they nest in her hair Her halo only grows She who dances with the crows Her halo only grows And she throws me her stars as she goes along Her black cape wet and torn Too dark for the light of day She sees herself in ivory As he saw her when he walked away Pristine in bondage collector of chains Hurrying out when it rains To give you her place by the fire Pristine in bondage she dances no more Her cape is too heavy Her feet are too sore

Just maybe You could smash my soul, please Just maybe You could twist my mind, in time Just because or maybe My heart fell to the ground And the pieces where scattered In secluded places In expanded minds There's no such thing as the end Someday I wish you reborn Could strip off our masks In the land of the free I guess stoner eyes do see Things to rapidly Moving round and round and round I guess stoner hearts do break Before it's all too late Moving round and round.... Just maybe You could break my walls Just maybe It wouldn't be that hard, in time Just because or maybe My fist fell to the ground And the pieces where scattered

Fading You always followed someone else And now you are bleeding It will n'er be as you assume As long as you follow leaders As we fly on our own We will never find a way back home Crawling underneath my biggest fear Please don't come too near I can't hide in my eyes So I look away and shiver turn to shakes I never wanted To walk alone out here in the cold light I never learn from my mistakes Streets full of broken hearts A graveyard for my tears And concrete tastes like blood Maybe You just wanted to prepare me For the evil world When you peeled me like an apple Was it so I'd grow a thicker scar?

My revolution dies Straight from the womb to the soil Didn't need long enough to be named Did need long enough to be mourned Shattered mirror on the floor Losing my reflection Seven long years to endure To my resurrection If I'd sail the seven seas Would you still be here for me When I found my way back home My execution fails Strapped to the chariots of the switch Burning the flesh and staging more Like a phoenix I've opened your throne Father carry her for me For I lack of empathy

These bodies all contain your souls And are lighten by your lives Molded to oblivion To hard to see the truth Have I told you It's not over yet Have I told you This is just the beginning Where did some go To walk here again Where is this life To live here again Close your eyes And come with me To find another way A parallel universe Created by ourselves Have I told you It's not over yet Have I told you This is just the beginning Where did some go To walk here again Where is this life To live here again Wanted something real But I only closed? in these? skies Wanted a deeper meaning But I only found our empty shells Where did some go To walk here again Where is this life To live here again Wanted something real But I only closed? in these? skies Wanted a deeper meaning But I only found our empty shells
