of her mind Racing precious
seconds to beat the soul binding
times Dripping into place where
she wipes away her tears Sinking
deeper into daydream casting fears
folding over towles to make the landing
softer she might bite her nails to bleed a
little after She races after daylight in the middle of winter When the light is out and light has ceased to crawl out and explore Emily lays in silent circles drawing pictures, cursing christmas Clenching fists as she stares blankly into her minds mirror switching on and off again from one girl to the next Into the grave she alwasy wanders to get a little rest She races after ecstacy in the middle of a wave When the rain is coming down on luck and shes temporarilly sane Emily reads a book today and bites her lip while screaming She watches movies on the TV screen of children and parents bleeding she minds
her business and hides emotion as she
breathes in deeply Emily dosent want
to fall so instead she covers her eyes
broken down from love not found
and trapped behind the walls
crashing,burning screaming
madly This world's about
to fall Theres no way for
Emily to tie knots
with absent fingers Grabbing onto another bottle, Emily, Emily slides
Emily sits alone in the back of her mind Losing every image of the monsters left behind And if we save our Emily from crying all the way home Then precious little Emily will forever be unknown.
