The Lonely Doll
Verse 1:
In the listless sounds of deviant insurrection
Tell to me ("What do you see? ")
In the back corridors of your mind you remain broken
Just like a soulless doll
Come to me in the nether regions
Tell of your whimsical mistake
What you fear becomes your salvation
This time there's no escape
Chorus:
For when you deny what you are
You create a void inside, where your thoughts have been misplaced
What you seek to destroy will consume you
Then your suffering will be put on display
Verse 2:
Save me from myself and I
Will no longer keep you denied
Say to me, your inner truth
What this time, will you do?
Etched in this heart a tainted love
Cuts so deep like shards of glass
You've known inside you're thinking of
Your mind's become two fractured halves
Chorus:
Tell to me the melody
The chords that cross the chasm of your mind
Give to me the reason why
Let us bridge this great divide
Sing to me the hidden song
Say to me that "I was wrong"
Hear the elegy you know so well
As we surrender to the sound of bells.
The death knell
