Ghosts

We are burning, burning,
Watch the flames lick the walls,
Feel the heat under your palms.
Darling, fall, come away from the window,
Fly with me, two ghosts flying over the grass,
We will not give him his final death kiss,
No, he dosen't even deserve that.
Darling, let us move away from his fists,
Away from his whiskey and beer,
Away from his ciggerette.
Darling, take my hand,
Let him burn with the house,
Let him crackle with the falling timber,
And noone will call us crazy,
We are not mad any more.
For now we are Angels,
May your bruises fade,
That your mind be at ease.
Who could blame your tormented mind,
For the fire in you heart burned him out,
Like his fists hit your cheek,
So your fire has broken his back.

Shadow

We are the secrets behind your lies,
The crimes that you try to hide in your eyes,
A sin in your mind, your criminal thought,
A sickness of darkness your head had caught.

We are the faces under your skin,
We laugh when you fall, scratch you deep within,
Paranoia is a disease of your mind,
An itch which straining fingers can't find.

We are the rebel, the killer, the sinner,
Upon your concience my bitter will linger,
We are the darkness inside you, under scar,
We are the part of you heart made of tar.

I am you.

Brown

I am the worm who's under the ground,
I am the rusted down penny you found.
I am the earth and the bark of the tree,
I am the wing of the eagle you see.

I am the wood of the chair where you sit,
I am the table upon which your candle is lit.
I am the fur of your beloved dog,
I am the eye of the slippery frog.

I am the stone where the sea meets the sand,
I am the whistle you hold in your hand.
I am the scab over your knee,
I am the door to your lock and key.

I'm a secret mix of the colours you know,
And yet you still leave me out of your rainbow.
