Calling for your Song
Your lyrics so sweet yet unkind
They seduce my vulnerable, broken mind
Im begging you to scream
Make my ears burst and bleed
Tune out my hopes and dreams
Take those lies, intoxicating my brain
Sing to the sky of all my pain
Drown me in your tears and rain
Lure me to a deadly wave
With your gift of death, I've become your slave
A slave to your voice
I have no other choice
Wash away my past
Take my life, why must you make it last?
Let the icy sea numb me
Hold me so I cannot flee
Sirens now, do not...

The Little Mermaid 's Last Thoughts
I feel the salt water spray upon my cheeks
An end to this plague of anguish is all I seek
But I am left with nothing, a void; my spirits weak
I lay myself against the cool wet rock
Watching you sit by a faraway dock
From such a far view
Ive lost myself in you
I gave up my voice and the riches of the undersea garden
Without your kiss I lost my end of the bargain
So many words I tried to say
With my eyes during those three wondrous days
I gave up my family, I deserve no respect
So frightened, I cannot bare another step
Your land...

The Doll for Display
What do you see when you look down at me?
I see you there so big and tall
Oh dearest one of them all
I wish you'd pick me up, why do you let me be?
I just sit and watch the rain fall
Gone all day I wait for you to call
When you see a new crack on my pale face
you look at me with such appal
You'd say, "how'd that get there, who'd do that to such a fragile doll?"
When my dress becomes worn and torn you sew back all my satin and lace
You brush and fix my dark inky hair
Somedays you look at me delightfully or just stare
...
