Twisted little lullaby
Do you hear the children cry?
Song lyrics laced with fear
A woeful cry a frozen tear

Under your bed is where he sleeps
Watching and listening while you weep
Waiting for the time to come
When the nightmares start and you begin to run

Keep your eyes closed because he can see
Into your eyes and in your dreams
Toying and playing, taunting you too come near
He can smell the stench of your growing fear

One bite is all it will take for him to claim your soul
One bite for him to devour you whole
One wrong move you make and he'll take your breath
One wrong move brings your death

Dark seeps into her crimson blood
Taunting him to come feed
The evil ripping through him
Building to a flaming need

Skin so cold it feels of ice
Drinking, eating in the dark of night
Soothing and singing
For her not to fight

Until shes pale and cant see
Until she wont cry
No evidence of her agony
She wont try

Silent, stealthy vampire
Blood dripping from throbbing fangs
The shell left of frozen death
No life, no breath

Harsh and bitter diatribe
Broken deep alone inside
A sad story to call our own
Hiding in this lonesome home
Crying when no ones around
Waiting but im never found
In my eyes my pain is clear
Screaming loud but no one hears
Help me I am falling fast
In the present and in the past
But no one has time to see
My growing flaming agony

I am the forgotten,
Leave me here where I shall stay
Forget me now
My memory will only fade

Torn inside, like shredded paper
Unfixable just go
Rip me more,
They will never know

A blank page every time you turn
The dusty cover aged and fragile
Leave me now on this shelf
Where I will stay  
Where I shall fade

I just want to cry
Wishing that I'd die
This anger deep inside
Hoping just to hide
Hating you for hating me
There are scars that cut so deep
******* pain inflicting me
These ignorant people never see
Broken inside this fragile wing
The broken song I always sing
Why is it so hard to let go
Of the railing, of the rope
I'm dying already
My heartbeat unsteady
Until it all goes blank
Deeper and deeper I sink
Just trying to cope

Did you know, when you turned away
That through the pain I would stay?
Did you guess that while you cried
I gave my all, the rules implied
And in the blur of the fight
I did what was always right
I fought for you through the flames
I played all those jarring games
And now I'm the one falling apart
And I pray that you'll fix my heart
