Road of Sorrows

Take me down my road of sorrows
And I will tarry there
Beware of the spark that bursts into flame
For that spark lives in me

I will be caught and wrapped up in a false world
I'll dance a dance that no one can stop
Pointed bare toes against cold, cold white marble
And the velvet will sing as it brushes the floor

Take me down my road of sorrows
And I will tarry there
Beware of the spark that bursts into flame
For that spark lives in me

Diminutive fingers all covered in lace
Pull hard at the gates of a garden quite fair
Rows upon rows of the rarest of flowers
But alas, the most precious is withered and dead

Siren's Song

Hail ye men who've traveled so far
Come rest with me here
And I'll sing you a song
For the breeze is so cold
But my body so warm
Am I not fair?
Can you say it's not so?

I've pale star-kissed skin
Raven hair black as pitch
The most delicate poise
That you ever did see
Though pink and bright
There is death on my lips
Though I smile as sweet
As a wee infant child

Set sail for my island
Safe haven, sweet home
Come to me, darling
My soul aches and burns
Wrap me in your arms
And I'll be your one love
Forever t'will be
And not one day less

Steer straight and true
Do not glance to the shore
Where the waves crash and spray
And the sea kicks up foam
When the prow hits the crags
Man and vessel will crack
And I'll laugh as I bury you
Under the waves

Follow Me

Come find me in the silence
In the world behind my eyes
I see through her disguise
I can hear her wordless cries

I can feel it hit the mark
Like a whisper in the dark
Like an arrow through my heart
Come follow me

Come follow me
Where none may go
To a place where I've decided you belong
Come wrap me in your heart
And it will be your home
Come follow me
Come follow me home

The winds are always changing
Suns will rise and stars will fall
Will you stay to see it all
Do you dare to scale these walls

I can feel her hesitate
Like the moment came too late
Like a feather bound to fate
Come follow me

Her voice is in the Summer
I can hear it on the breeze
Drifting gently through the trees
Laughing, catch me if you please

I can feel my heart take flight
Like a blaze cuts through the night
Like winged things drawn towards the light
Come follow me
