| Emptiness
 Take your hand, press it to my wrist,
 Can you feel that cut pulsing
 Take those pills, the doctor prescribed
 Have you ever seen me convulsing
 Do you even know
 Do you even know why
 Lead you now, into this darkened night
 Meet your eyes
 With a questioning look
 I’m so cold
 But I’m breathing this air
 Maybe for you
 If that means
 Anything
 Let me know
 If that means
 Not a thing
 Let me go
 To swim deep in troubled waters
 I’m crying tears of nothing

 I know something definite
 I've felt something infinite
 I felt it when I touched your hand,
 It must have danced across your skin
 I'm wondering
 If my descent into madness started
 When I tripped into you
 Something new, that doesn't scare me
 Incredible you don't unnerve me
 With the beauty of yourself
 Loving everything
 And every second
 Of when you're here
 And when you're not,
 Waiting by the telephone, trying to will you
                                near

 Do my teardrops sting, as they're sliding down
                                your face
 Did you ever realise, that I couldn't be
                                replaced
 Do you know that my heart's breaking
 And my sanity is skating
 On thin ice
 Are they crystal teardrops, do they shatter as
                                they fall
 And are they burning hot, or are they loveless,
                                cool
 Did I ever love you, did you love me back
 'Cos stranger than all fiction is the fact
 That I'm crying here too
 And I can't let go of you
 Clinging to a memory, holding faded dreams
 The sweetest kiss, the bitterest lies, nothing's
                                as it seemed
 Are those teardrops cleansing, do they wash your
                                conscience clear
 Or are they drowning you like me, because your
                                love's not near
 Shallow Grave
 
 Fall decaying to the ground,
 Screaming be your final sound
 Into grave and over soon,
 Rotting in your cold damp tomb
 Two weeks passed since my gun shot,
 Now lay you in a woodland plot
 Dug underneath the shining moon,
 I still see your smoking wound
 Hear the thud, you hit the floor,
 Feel you dragging through the door
 Sorry that it took a while
 But as I dig I slowly smile
 No more you for me to fight,
 No more bruises in the night
 Was I too kind, straight through the head
 But now I'll tuck you into bed
 On a mattress made of dirt,
 Eiderdown of moss and turf
 No headstone left that might remind,
 And as I leave won't look behind
 All your torture has been done,
 My guilt just prints now, on a gun
 And as I toss it in the lake
 I wonder were you mine to take
 But as I watch it disappear
 Think of your hatred, of my fear
 Now you're gone, I just can't weep
 No longer will your poison seep
 Your hold on me was growing bigger,
 To free myself I pulled a trigger
 So now you sleep in earths embrace,
 Look of death upon your face
 And as I get further, with each step
 You're just a ghost and I forget
 And as you're clearing from my mind
 Myself is what I'll try to find
 My Forever
 
 Something in your eyes, something deep
 Something in your breathing, as I’m watching
                                you asleep
 Something saying something, when you don’t say
                                a word
 Something silent telling me, that someday
                                we’ll learn
 All that’s in each other
 Something everlasting, so there’ll never be
                                another
 Us
 And it’s in you I trust
 To be my forever
 
 
 Washed Pure/Hells Bar
 
 I'm on the brink of spiritual death
 I've been here and there and not stopped yet
 I've sat on a stool, in the bar of hell
 Spilt Satans drink, it's just as well
 That I'm forgiven
 For what I've given
 And I'm washed pure
 With all you ignore
 Walking in the road, dodging speeding cars
 Kicking at the kurb, I've gone a step too far
 Waiting for judgement, to feel final embrace
 Holy man or dark lords face
 Or just rot in plywood box
 With three lost souls beneath and two on top
 I'm forgiven
 For what I've given
 And I'm washed pure
 With all you ignore
 Scalding rocks pelt down on me
 Blood a river, soul a sea
 Flows along from black ink pen
 Been down the tunnel and back again
 Watched
 
 Silent something chasing me
 Through my house and through my hair
 Watching me, as I shake
 Follows me, through night and day
 Demons just won’t go away
 Eyeing me when I’m in bed
 Flicking through pages of books that I’ve read
 Tracing my footprints, a flash in the mirror
 It’s not paranoia, ‘cos something is there
 Slip out of consciousness, but still too aware
 Where is it hiding, it’s driving me mad
 Tears of the scared, not of the sad
 Freaking me out, in the true sense of the words
 Something that’s spiritual, something
                                disturbed
 I’m jumpy and nervous as I walk to my room
 Trapped stiff with fear, like I’m locked in a
                                tomb
 How bizarre, when there’s nothing I see
 How very odd, the things I believe
 But it’s here now, it’s watching me write
 It’ll pull up a chair, it’ll stay here all
                                night
 It’s been here forever, it shows no signs of
                                shifting
 It may stick around, to watch dark clouds
                                lifting
 It’ll be here a while, with the mood that
                                I’m in
 Damn silent watcher, damn invisible thing
 William The Nechro
 
 Stainless steel and body bags, bodies long
                                embalmed
 Subjected once again, to his sexual harm
 Twisted torso, half a head
 He longs to lay them in his bed
 And degrade them once again
 Now they’re too lifeless to defend
 Grim Reaper just a middle man, for his warped
                                desires
 A lustful appetite and a corpse that never tires
 Rotting flesh, that would distress, his
                                aphrodisiac
 You’ll see him in the graveyard with a shovel
                                and a sack
 Death kissed his bride first, not that he’d
                                complain
 A match that’s made in Hell, a marriage quite
                                insane
