Black Letter Day
Black Letter Day
Confirming all of my worst fears
Losing everything I held dear
Wouldn't that be the story of the year?
You be careful, you can't be safe all the time
You'll be faithful, I have no doubts in my mind.
Throwing away all that's been
Just accept it; you can't always win
But the won't be the scene
That won't be the scene
Who knew 180's and the future
Could look to be so promising?
Nothing is always sure
So flip the switch and sing
Sing of all the things to come
Of all past wrong doings-undone
Don't regress
Don't repress
There's no turning back
At least, if you want to keep the ground beneath you
Sever Lifelines
Sever Lifelines
And I don't know
Where to go
Let's run this race together
And run forever
Lose yourself with me
For all eternity
Sever all lifelines
This time
And you don't know
Where to turn
Time moves so slow
Questing for what you yearn
Passing through your eyes
Before the passion dies
Seconds Turn To Lifetimes
Seconds Turn To Lifetimes
Why can't I see the light through this
This reconstruction is hit or miss
Another conversation fades to black
I fail to see what my words lack
When seconds turn to lifetimes [to lifetimes]
Having you; what keeps me alive
Alone together, we walk this night
The distant cousin of perfection
Is a change of direction
180 degree spin
A world completely different
From the one we lived in
Cycles
Cycles
I don't want to live this life
I don't want to live your life
I don't want to live this life
I don't want to live your life
Please don't let me be their mime
I'm trapped within
This box of memories
This fire burns me
The only difference between love and hate
Is that one makes you crazy

Little Angel
Little Angel
Little Angel (go away...)
Chorus:
Little Angel go away...
Come again another day
The Devil has my intuition
And here I think I'm gonna stay
~end chorus~
For all of those who try to get me
My spell cannot be broken
For I have am no Little Angel you see
my name cannot be spoken
To me you all are merely peasants
And you I give a purpose.
Oppose me and it will surely be unpleasant
for I have all power over you.
~repeat chorus~
Weak and powerless?
I think not
Let me live in happiness
And give it no other thought
Life will always bring you down
And you're not really helping
You still have yet to make me frown
But I'll stil
This Dream, This Dream
This Dream, This Dream
This Dream, This Dream
Reach out...
Reach out...
Don't let it walk
All over you
Let it talk
It speaks to me, too
caught in it's grip
are false whispers of the damned
Easily shatter
Broke, torn, and battered
A glimpse of life
Past, present, future
Once destroyed, none can be sure
Fluxuation, explanation
Then atonement, compensation
Once seen, once felt
Once touched and held
It is impossible to weld
it all back together...
Impossible to mend
It's beholder's broken heart
No healing, but darkness
No regeneration, just silence
A silence created
Only by death
And a silence so divine
So cold
It can be found
Only by loss
The Binding of Eternity
The Binding of Eternity
"I once thought a demon of my past had hindered my ability to love. We both know that that is impossible."
As I lay here shaking
Holding my bleeding heart
Within my weak hands
No darkness can cloud my feelings
Will this grow in absense?
When I return, will you comfort me?
Will your smile still open my heart?
I hope it will be so
Our worlds nearly merged once
Creating a brief flash of love and light
Until a tremor ripped through mine
And knocked my feet from beneath me
The light has faded and brought darkness
Why am I here alone?
Why must I be here alone?
Come back to me
You must come back!
I take on ething from my heart;

Day in
Day out
Repeating yesterday
Over
And over
Again
And again
Extreme monotony desensitizing me
My eyes fill with gray
The world around me is silent
Meaningless to my distorted mind
Time stands still at my feet
Dare I disturb it?
Shall I grasp this connection
With my own 2 hands?
Manipulate the unimaginable
Shatter deafening silence
Reaching out to embrace it…
It is destroyed
My single chance of return
. . . V a n i s h e d . . .
I scramble frantically
To complete the billion piece puzzle
I have created
To make my way back and
. . . R e t u r n . . .
Had I not disturbed it
What would have become of me?
That know
Raging Asylum
Raging Asylum
I've got to break away
Break free from these chains
These chains that shackle me down
This power I wield
Is causing a faltering
My faltering upon a line
A line of life and death
Beating my will black and blue
My fear growing
My rage building up…
My paranoia thriving
"Dissociativeness" my only friend
As in this state
All of my cares, worries, stress, and pressure
Flow away
With each breath I exhale
Break me free, wake me up
Take me out of this Raging Asylum
My frail spirit is collapsing
Save me, save me
My love for you is too great
I cannot be locked in such a place
I've been waiting, waiting
Locked here in this cell
Divine Impurity
Divine Impurity
Your halo falls to The Darkness
Your blood-stained Angel Wings scarred by battle
It shows how you've fought for me
How you've committed a thousand sins for me
And endured the most painful Hell
For me you've given your life away
I ask myself
Why?
Was your love so strong
It blinded your sense of logic and reason?
Your name forgotten and foresaken
Your presence exiled
Sent to a world
So cold and distant...
Trapped within a 50-50 universe
Our minds so weak
And easily manipulated
By such dangerous emotions
An aura of divinty
Tainted by impurity
A silence falls upon us
A silence so cold
Deap
Deafening
None would dare to shat

The Scars Of Autumn
Trust
A thriving beast
That feeds upon love
And compassion
Honesty
Without a pulse
Lying dead
In the Heart's graveyard
Everyone carries a mask
Just an alternate vision
Made for the sheep
A mere hypnotic scar
Impurifying the images skin
And everyone is playing
This game of hide-and-seek
Each scar tells a story
As if to leave a reminder
Of one's shameful past
To cause the minds apocalypse
To break the dam
And release the flood of memories
Vision blurs, lights dim
The future comes to kill me
Exterminate my world
And to put me
Into Cryosleep
To shut down and preserve
For the world to come

So this place might as well be LiveJournal for me, hahaha.
Seriously though, I will start cracking down. As soon as it warms up, I can go outside and go inspiration chasing.
Good news and bad news. Bad goes first:
PSP got jacked! :O Doubt I'll get it back, but it's just a PSP. I don't really mind all that much. Also, my current English teacher[s] are completely ridiculous. We have this huge paper due tomorrow, and don't get me wrong, I did it, but they're completely contradicting everything we've ever been taught about English. Literally. I got a 0 out of 20 'cause I didn't have a fucking works cited. Yea. That's some shit right there. Thi

I think I'm gonna be here a while.
How is everybody? Does anybody I know still go here?
Life rules. :] Joanna and I have been together for well over 2 and a half years now! Plus, Beneathcitylights is doing pretty well. http://www.myspace.com/beneathcitylights We got a new layout and track up for y'all to hear. We're also looking to record at Foundation Studios, which is where Emarosa and Here I Come Falling recorded, in the first weeks of summer, but we dunno. We thought it was $100 per day, but people have said it's gone up to 300. :/ So that sucks. Plus, it's like 4 hours away.
Lately, I've been into

So. BCL has a new guitarist, Cody Adams, and like 5 shows lined up. Which is uber pwnage. We're also getting a new MySpace layout, and we've just had a graphic made for T-Shirts! :] So, once I get a job, I'm helping pay for all of this, and we're gonna go record a full EP. Lots of people say that if we keep it up, we could be signed before we're out of High School! :D And that's not just our friends. That's people who help book shows for us.
Aaaaaand I listened to Redeemer again today. :] So I'm back into Norma Jean, I guess. :]
And this past Teusday, Cody and I went to downtown Chicago and spent the day there. It was awesome! That's when
