Faerie Tale
1.17.04
I can’t lock myself away
Chains bind me to the lonely place
Where tears were once upon a time laid
And I’m a faerie tale princess
Lost in my dreams
I’m a story in a child’s book
Through this blackened, twisted sheen
You can’t see me with eyes so wide open
Nor with those life-gripping hands
I watched you through a one-way mirror
You’ll never see who I am
Because I’m just a faerie tale prince
Lost in my dreams
I’m a story in a child’s book
Through this blackened, twisted sheen
Hopes fade, lights go out
Darkness blocks the way
The faerie tales- these imagined princesses and princes
Always die away
And I’m a faerie-tale in itself
Lost in death’s all-consuming grasp
I’m a plot that’s long lost
Through this blackened, twisted wrath
<--- fall into my patterened tears... [return]
<---<--- catch me as i fall? [AA]
