Default Pyromana, sweet flame

Join me in Lucifer's ranks
The army of the living dead
Burn with me forever
Pyromania, sweet flame

Orange, red, and yellow
keeping me awake
keeping me alive
Holding me here against my will

Pyromania, sweet flame
I would burn forever just to feel your touch
The only warmth in an eternity of the
Cold, freezing, icy universe

I want to go out in a flash of fire
A bang and not a sputter
A scream and not a muffled yell
Intensity and strength for my memorial

Pleasure fused with pain
Molded together past all recognition
Melted into a puddle past all definition
Spontaneous combustion who saw it coming?

They say heat rises
I doubt that I will soar to the stars to His kingdom
I believe heat burns as the light from a fire
I believe heat sinks to the core

I don't want to go Down
But I don't want to face His recrimination for
my sins they were over and done with long ago
I have accepted my mortal punishments

They say a Big Bang created this universe of cold
How could fire and explosions create a world that freezes?
Who new how bad the mark the Garden of Eden
left on the would would be?

Who knew that char would come and cover the stain?

Your touch heals me and yet destroys
let others feel reborn and
realize that the realm of fire and flames
Is my Kingdom of Heaven

Default Blade Across My Skin

I sit in the dark and try to use
This method of rejuvenation
Eleven O' eight at night and
I need more Illumination

My skin itself is willing to pay the price
Light up the day the world is doused in shadow
I, myself am willing to roll the dice
the cost to illuminate the day

Take a risk and see
even if its not for me
It won't hut to pull the blade
across my skin

I've tried so hard to rip this boundary
even though my knife was dull
A stinging line is all I left
this is how I stall

This is how I procrastinate
but I want out NOW
someone in me is willing to wait
I want my blood to spill

Take a risk and see
even if it's not for me
I know it will hurt when i pull the
blade across my skin

Pale white in the night
Perfection in blue veins and
brown freckles
Do I really want to main myself?

The cold war rests inside my room
Hiding in your mothers womb
You could cut the tension with a knife
I think that's what I'll do

**** THE SYSTEM
This world of orderly conduct
They say its wrong to hurt myself
They say its wrong to damage my health

Take a risk and see
even if its not for me
what could be the harm when I
pull the blade across my skin

A little blood never hurt anyone
What doesn't kill me makes me strong
They say self inflicted pain is wrong
I simply say it makes you strong

For the third time tonight I will
pick up this blade
Even if doing so casts me into
the never ending shade

This blade across my skin
Please just do your work
**** the system
They say I'm wrong to hurt myself

I should let them hurt me instead?
Never would I dare
Never would I dare give into their demands
Knife across my skin

Blade across my skin
I'll give in to my OWN demands
My OWN addiction
This thirst for my own blood

A raven in the sky circles this despair
Just this blade across my wrist
is my BOUNDARY

Default optimism??

and you all though i was depressed ALL the time
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I don't Know When

The sky's not clouding up
The wind chill doesn't freeze my soul
Could it be life is changing
. . .for the better?

This difference seems quite odd to me
The visible change still so hard to see
Could it be my life is changing
. . .for the better?

[chorus]
This feeling feels so odd to me
This change from constant melancholy
I don't know how I don't know when
I started feeling this way again

Could it be when I looked into your eyes
or kissed him on the sidewalk?
I don't know how I don't know when
I started feeling this way again
[end chorus]

For better or worse I am always yours
So these must be the good times?
My life is changing could it finally be
. . .for the better?

My cloths are black but I don't care
I can always buy new ones
The world is greedy but I can share
I'm changing for the better

[chorus]

I never knew simply sitting alone could bring such satisfaction
I don't trust my new found confidence as far as I can throw it
Then again, confidence is intangible
and in me

What IS tangible is the springtime sun
Your lips upon my neck
Your fingers resting in my hand
the gentle caress is soft and pleasing

to she who could not feel
The warmth from his embrace heats your core
massages your aching muscles
The weight of the world is off my back

[chorus]

I don't know how I don't know when
I started feeling
this way
again
