Another new song...
Damaged Lover
I feel like my entire body
Is made from thousands of tiny razors
And they’re waiting
Right beneath my skin
They’re going to burst free
And rip me apart
But they’re no worse than you, lover
(No worse than you, lover)
I feel like there’s a crew with hammers
Deep inside my brain
And they all let loose
With swinging violence
And batter my skull
Bruising me from the inside
But they’re no worse than you, lover
(No worse than you, lover)
I feel so damaged
But I look almost alive
I heal much more easily
On the outside than within
The heartache is always there
And the dark thoughts
But they’re no worse than you, lover
(No worse than you, lover)
Another of my new songs...
100% Manufactured
I’m one hundred percent natural
No surgical augmentation for this girl
And he loves me, all of me
Just the way I am
(Fist in her face, she’s broken
Total disgrace, she’s broken)
We are dual embodied perfection
And the world knows, the people know
They’ve seen our smiles
They envy our lives
(Knee in her stomach, she’s broken
Nothing but heartache, she’s broken)
But all people wear vibrant masks
And hide their weary faces
It’s a secret, he whispers
One I know I must keep
(Head meets a wall, she’s broken
Unholy downfall, she’s broken)
I wake and he’s gone, but he’ll return
I stare in the perfect mirror
And see all my awful imperfections
Ones he’s tried to erase
(Trip down the stairs, she’s broken
Accidents in pairs, she’s broken)
I powder and cake my wretched cheeks
And take expensive concealer
To the blackened area around my eyes
Checking often for cracks
(Skull meets the floor, she’s broken
She knows what’s in store, she’s broken)
I smile at appropriate moments
And I paint my lips with blood red gloss
And remember to laugh it off
When real blood seeps through
(Fist in her face, she’s broken
Total disgrace, she’s broken)
He has me wrapped around his little finger
I do as he says, when he says, how he says
I’m trapped in this battered shell
And I’m one hundred percent manufactured
This is one of my new songs.
In Memory
Seven dollars spent
A pound lost
A Euro found
The ground rises up to meet me
And there’s blood streaming from my nose
But you put wings on a guy and I’m gone
Especially black angel wings
You could get me to do anything
A single flower
A dozen smiles
He’s calling my name
And I’m answering, It’s love
He wouldn’t hurt me, not ever
It’s the start of summer
The world is happy
But I’ve got endless tears
And I’m wondering where the time went
And I’m wondering about my past
But you put wings on a guy and I’m gone
Especially black angel wings
You could get me to do anything
It’s the pain
Time and time again
Pain in my chest, my heart, my head
A hand on my neck, face in the water
Can’t you see I can’t breath?
A blackened eye
A broken rib
A fractured skull
But it’s love, that’s what keeps me here
In his arms, not far from harm
But you put wings on a guy and I’m gone
Especially black angel wings
You could get me to do anything
Yeah, you put wings on a guy and I’m gone
Especially black angel wings
You could get me to do anything
Anything
Anything
Anything…
