Feed Me Music!

-There's nuthin' left to do but escape; you've just gotta decompress.
-Gotta chill out--mellow & free; can't settle for anything less.

-Dim down the lights--turn your stereo loud.
-Crank up the tunes --hard, fierce & proud.

-All alone--just bang your head.
-Your frown fades away & you smile instead.

Dance like no one's watching--sing without a care.
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em--let 'em stare.
Shrieking like a banshee--lost in a blur of hair.
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em--let 'em stare!

-Close your eyes--really feel the bass thrumming.
-Bounce carefree--insistant, vibrant drumming.

-Let the music soothe you--as only music can.
-& If they don't get it--then they'll never understand.

-Really listen to the lyrics--let 'em speak to you.
-Never met a force in nature that's more honest, tried & true.

Dance like no one's watching--sing without a care.
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em--let 'em stare.
Shrieking like a banshee--lost in a blur of hair.
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em --let 'em stare!

-Get swept away--swing & sway to the beat.
-Revitalize my heart--never admit defeat!

-Shut out the whole damn world--turn that frown upside down.
-Spin 'round like a child --savoring every sound.

-Regardless of what you do--no matter what they say.
-The music is something they can never take away.

Dance like no one's watching--sing without a care.
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em--let 'em stare.
Shrieking like a banshee--lost in a blur of hair.
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em--let 'em stare!

-Find your own private anthem--unearth your own theme song.
-Life is hard --the world is wrong--let the music make you strong.

-Scream along--resist & find your voice!
-Fight back, rebel--& make your fuckin' choice!

-Let the music heal you--absorbed into the soul.
-& if it's too loud--then you're too goddamn old!

Dance like no one's watching--sing without a care.
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em--let 'em stare!
Shrieking like a banshee--lost in a blur of hair.
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em --let 'em stare!

-Feed me music like I'm dying.
-No more time for whining & crying!

-Larger than life--I can stand hard & tall.
-Can't knock me down--ain't never gonna fall!

-All I want is to be free!
-All I want is to be me!

-Dust my ass off--I'm a-okay!
-Won't stay down--fuck it--tomorrow's a whole new day!

Dance like no one's watching--sing without a care!
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em--let 'em stare!
Screaming like a banshee--lost in a blur of hair!
Doesn't matter if they see you--fuck 'em--let 'em stare!

Mischeivous Angel

-Angels perch upon my shoulders; one on either side.
-Conceal your heart's secrets; from yourself you cannot hide.

-One acts as my conscience; honest, wise, & true.
-The other causes mischief, as she is wont to do.

-I fight to hold my balance, between the dark & light.
- Eternally resisting the whispering of the night.

-The vast unknown, it beckons me, to spread my wings & fly.
-To shed my skin, begin anew, & let my old self die.

-Twisting thoughts & tangled hearts; they war within my head.
-The choice is never easy; I daydream instead.

-Always treading water; trying not to drown.
-Fight so hard to keep my smile; lost within a frown.

-Attempting to stay grounded--instead I'm chasing stars.
-Seeking out life's magic; slipping between the bars.

-& that mischievous angel--she whispers in my ear.
-Full of lies & secrets, that I don't need to hear.

-She fills my head with fantasies, 'til I want to saw my wrists.
-Then I breathe in the magick; there's more to life than this.

-Scattered stars shine down on me; bathe me in their light.
-Reminding me, I too can shine, if I don't lose my fight.

-So I just keep on moving, as the battle's not yet won.
-Whenever I consult the cards, I seem to draw the sun.

-The little stars believe in me, so all is not yet lost.
-Someday I will touch them; no matter what the cost.

-& that troublesome little angel, always whispering in my ear.
-Why is she the one that is easiest to hear?
