Fall to me, don't fight
When shadows touch the way they do
In this sacrificial candle light
Our shadows touch like we like to
And when I'm with you, tarnished in black lace
You make me feel a jewelry box dancer
A ballet in the attic of our morbid romance
I was hoping we could heal eachother
Because when you spoke, I was attracted to
But you when wrote, I feel in love, with the darker side of you
The you who won't see me as such a stupid whore
But will cradle this crucifide angel, and never leave me wanting more
At the time you didn't know me
But you let me cry on you anyway
Now you're my truest love
And I have nothing left to say

Today I am a nice shade of dead
A corpse of the prettiest decay
Tomorrow, the same, rest in peace
In this cold covered hole where I lay
Today, I'm a girl, fucked up and pretty
One easily misunderstood, it seems
With eyes pretty brown, cover up, paint 'em black
Don't you wish I was your dream?
In all my psychotic dynasty
And over the counter remedies
I'll cost you all you have to give
And tomorrow, again, I'll be a nice shade of dead
Until I rise again to be fed

See me...sifting...through metamorphosis
Catch me...thrifting...discount philosophy
Watch me...lifting...myself from creation
feel me...drifting...from this place I've so long rested
Hold me...while I...fall again
Save me...from...myself...

I am anti-drug
But not anti-nicotine
I am anti-war
But not anti-self harm
I anti-conform
But not anti-creativity
I am anti-self
But not anti-self esteem
(For anyone else I mean)
I am not anti-voice
Nor am I anti-choice
But I am anti-politics
(A bad experience with Bush and Dick)
I am anti-abuse
But not anti-love
I am anti-excuse
But not anti-push and shove
I am not anti-do what you have to
But I am anti-screw what you've got coming to you
I am a con
Of the ddepest threat
I am a mask
Of the darkest thread
I am a liar,
I am sure
Devouring identities
And creating more
I am a rogue,
Heathen and betrayed
Being deceit my specialty
And betrayal my game
Behind and under
Where you do not see
Be sure of fear
When I am not seen
For I am invisible
To your suspicious eyes
With all my tricks
And places to hide
~Amaris Scarlet Kelly~
I am not a butterfly
But if you'll let me, I'd like to try
To spin and weave a cacoon for me
And sleep a while in maturity's tree
So when I reveal, I'll be a new
One so wonderful, one good enough for you
My pain won't dictate, and my tears won't sting
I'll write my words that then I'll sing
And although I'm not a butterfly
I'd really like to give a try
At changing all there is to change
No more twisted, juvenille games
If you'll let me, I'll give it my best
Weaving and grieving a small insect nest
To gather myself and flourish in rest
So I can enjoy the world for once
So I can prove to you my best
~Amaris Scarlet Kelly~
To my dearest Love,
You make my heart bleed
And burn to ashes
You make my eyes swell
And seep with tears
You make me so numb
All I feel is you
You make me feel dumb
And so confused
You make me want to
Make love to the night
You make me do
What I know's not right
You make me think
Myself untrue
You make me wish
I could hate you
You make me want to
Take away my life
You make it so that
Everything's allright
I don't know what it is
You intend to do
But even in this darkness
All I need is you
~Amaris Scarlet Kelly~
