The Hollow

run, desire, run this sexual being

run him like a blade to & through the heart

no conscience, one motive...

to cater to the hollow.

screaming

feed me, fill me up again.

temporarily pacify this hungering.

so, grow, libido, throw dominoes of

indiscretions down.

falling all around in cycles/circles.

constantly consuming.

conquer and devour.

it's time to bring this fire down.

bridle all this indiscretion

long enough to edify and

permanently fill this hollow.

feed me, fill me up again.

temporarily pacify this hungering.

Magdalena

overcome by your moving temple

overcome by this holiest of altars

so pure, so rare to witness such an earthly goddess

that i've lost my self control

beyond compelled to throw this dollar down

before your holiest of altars

i'd sell my soul,

my self esteem a dollar at a time for

one chance,

one kiss,

one taste of you my magdalena

i bear witness to this place,

this prayer so long forgotten

so pure, so rare to witness such an earthly goddess

that i'd sell my soul,

my self esteem a dollar at a time for

one chance,

one kiss,

one taste of you my black madonna

i'd sell my soul,

my self esteem a dollar at a time for

one taste,

one taste,

one taste of you my magdalena

Rose

don't disturb the beast,

the temperamental goat, the snail

while he's feeding on the rose

stay frozen compromise what i will,

i am bend around the wind

silently blown about again

i'm treading so soft and lightly compromising my will, i am

i am, i will

so no longer will i

lay down play dead,

play your doe in the headlights locked down and terrified

your deer in the headlights shot down and horrified

when push comes to pull comes to shove comes to step around

this self destructive dance that never would've ended till

i rose i roared aloud here i will i am

i am i will

so no longer will i

lay down play dead

play this

kneel down, gun shy, martyr, pitiful

i rose, i roared, i will, i am

Judith

you're such an inspiration for ways that i will never

ever choose to be.

oh so many ways for me to show you how your savior

has abandoned you.

Thank(fuck) your god.

he did this, took all you had and left you this way.

still you pray, never stray,

never taste of the fruit. never thought to question why.

it's not like you killed someone.

it's not like you drove a hateful spear into his side.

praise the one who left you broken down and

paralyzed.

he did it all for you.

oh so many ways for me to show you how your

dogma has abandoned you.

pray to your christ, to your god.

never taste of the fruit,

never stray, never break,

never choke on a lie,

even though he's the one who did this to you

thought to question why

it's not like you killed someone.

it's not like you drove a spiteful spear into his side.

talk to jesus christ as if he knows the reasons why he

did this all to you.

he did it all for you.

Orestes

metaphor for a missing moment

pull me into your perfect circle

one womb

one shape

one resolve

liberate this will to release us all

gotta cut away, clear away, snip away and sever this umbilical residue

that's keeping me from killing you

and from pulling you down with me here

i can almost hear you scream

give me one more medicated peaceful moment

because i don't want to feel this overwhelming hostility

gotta cut away, clear away, snip away and sever this umbilical residue

that's keeping me from killing you

3 Libras

threw you the obvious

and you flew with it on your back

a name in your recollection down among a million same

difficult not to feel a little bit

disappointed and passed over

when i've looked right through to see you naked but oblivious

and you don't see me

but i threw you the obvious just to see if there's more behind the

eyes of a fallen angel

eyes of a tragedy

here i am expecting just a little bit too much form the wounded

but i see through it all

and see you

so i threw you the obvious to see what occurs behind the

eyes of a fallen angel

eyes of a tragedy

oh well

apparently nothing

you don't see me

you don't see me at all

07.Sleeping Beauty

delusional

i believe i could cure it all for you dear

coax or trick or drive or

drag the demons from you

make it right for you sleeping beauty

truly thought i could heal you

far beyond a visible sign of your awakening

failing miserably to rescue sleeping beauty

truly thought i couuld make it right

if i kissed you one more time to

help you face the nightmare

but you're far too poison for me

such a fool to think that i could wake you from your slumber

that i could actually heal you

sleeping beauty

poisoned and hopeless

far beyond a visible sign of your awakening

failing miserably to find a way to comfort you

far beyond a visible sign of your awakening

hiding from some poisened memory

poisened and hopeless

sleeping beauty

Thomas

humble and helpless

learning to pray

praying for visions to show me the way

show me the way to forgive you

allow me to let it go

allow me to be forgiven and

show me the way to let go

illuminate me i'm just praying

for you to show me where i'm to begin

reconnect to you

Thinking Of You

lying all alone and restless

unable to lose this image

sleepless unable to focus on anything but your surrender

tuggin a rhythm to the vision that's in my head

tuggin a beat to the sight of you lying

so delighted with a new understanding

something about a little evil that makes that

unmistakeable noise i was hearing

unmistakable soud that i know so well

spent and sighing with that look in your eye

spent and sweatin with that look on your face like

sweet revelation

sweet surrender

thinking of you

thinking of you

sweet revelation

sweet surrendering

Breña

my reflection wraps and pulls me under

healing waters to be bathed in breña

guide me safely in

worlds i've never been to

heal me heal me

my dear breña

so vulverable

but it's all right

heal me heal me

my dear brena

so vulnerable

but it's all right opening to heal

Over

been over this before

been over

and over

and over

and over

this before
