It begins like this every time
With my soul, shiny & unique,
Whispering secret syllables
in the eyeless dark,
I'm dancing in fire again.
I spent my whole life
In love with despair,
And holding my breath
In their mute atmosphere
A labyrinth of after thoughts
Beneath the mountain of tragedy.
One side of me is blind
And the other is lying
Together they are crying
A unity of words is formulating
My misery into an equation.

I create my own religion,
With no gods! no laws!
Create your own reality
And dream your own existence.

You will burn me
But I am living fire
I pass the flame to paper girl
Who will burn the world.

I create an intimate new language
While kissing the mirror above
Cracked in seven different ways
One for each day the devil cared.

I am Delilah and David,
Each with a side to share
To Goliath and Samson
Changing shape with a passion.

So here we are again
To succumb so nicely,
Dying from within
And reborn into sin.

dies irae!! dies irae!!
dies irae!! dies irae!!

The devil may care, but I don't
Deus avertat, The lambs of god
Are choking on his breath,
The infinite connects true soldiers alive.
With a weapon of words,
I am made of pages,
With an artillery of verse
I will have you map the sky,
To find a place to go when you die.
Hell tastes just like you
Like the plague of humanity
A pityful shade of god
Walking the earth
With thorns sewn into their sculpts
Becoming brighter
As the world is burning.

Wow. I'm not sure I understand it but it's well written with outstnading imagery and some really nice phrasings. I really liked this Jesterhead. :)
