Laugh At Tragedy-
Razor calm fingertips tracing lips and bloody strips of skin
Lightning swells her back seat scars
And black-haired eyes are blurred and broken
Let's have a pack until it's over
Won't you give it back until this world is sober?

Black and White Cinema-
Smoke her bones dry
And bind her to the sky
A bullet cocked between your teeth
Lipstick poised kisses
Dance your eyelids shut.

Untitled-
Bite his skin and scream a symphony
Eyes closed and stars alone
Can't save you now.

Noose-
Ring around your neck now
Leaving all the truth out
I'll never be anything
Worth breathing for.

Lovely-
My heart turned inside-out last night
Bloody veins soak in your hands
Lovely smoke sleeps in your hair
Metallic fingers touch my face
Can I burn for you?

Strong-
Serene and poisoned with your kisses
I am saved and you are hurt
I give you roses for your slumber
And a coffin for your body.

Fifteen-
Gravel in your wounds again
Handfuls of scars
Take me just a little further
Rape me
Let me bleed until you let me go
Dance a little deeper
Tunnel for your pain
Feel alive for the moment
Run with everyone else.

Fall of Destiny-
Wicked splinters in my hair
This world is ancient
Razor burn and love affairs
Paper cuts and bandage lust
I am empty like your eyes.

Mirror, Mirror-
Palms up
Lines read
Urban innocence in your cries
Feathers in your hair
Half-broken hearts lain in the water
Innocent girl, show me love.

Assorted Flavors-
Hit me
Love me, break me
Bury minds of pain
And bitter hearts
Skipping beats
Selfish hands take me down
Tonight
I'll forever be in his arms.

Withering Rooftops-
You smear your cheeks with blush
Shake your hands with dirt
Please cover your mouth with ashes
And hide your eyes with smoke
Shield your pain with spread legs
Feed your lust with cocaine
Lay fire on your skin
Gather yourself
Lace his fingers in yours
Let him hold you
Let them love you.
