Array ( [sid] => 118702 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Our own apocolypse [time] => 2006-04-20 18:55:18 [hometext] => *a couple of tears, a drop of blood, as both our worlds begin to flood* not very dark, but...odd, i gotta say it's one of my favorites, written a while ago. [bodytext] => Fill a bathtub with your tears,
Just so I can bathe in it all
Drown me in your too-deep sorrow
Hand-in-hand we both will fall

Walk across the edge too close,
It's too late to be afraid, you know?
We've gone through this so many times,
You and me, so long ago

Lets test the limits, cross the lines,
How far the drop, how deep sink?
Lets combine our fears and demons,
And mix it all in one smooth drink

I'll drink your blood, you dry my tears,
We'll stand outside in the full moon,
We'll remember pain and sorrow,
And pretend that we're immune

You get the guns, I'll store the bullets
The note together we will write,
Drop to hell where we're meant to be,
This never really was our fight

"I love red, don't you?" I say,
Bitter laughter at all the blood,
Life was never right for us,
And so we drown in a cherry flood

Our own apocolypse

Fill a bathtub with your tears,
Just so I can bathe in it all
Drown me in your too-deep sorrow
Hand-in-hand we both will fall

Walk across the edge too close,
It's too late to be afraid, you know?
We've gone through this so many times,
You and me, so long ago

Lets test the limits, cross the lines,
How far the drop, how deep sink?
Lets combine our fears and demons,
And mix it all in one smooth drink

I'll drink your blood, you dry my tears,
We'll stand outside in the full moon,
We'll remember pain and sorrow,
And pretend that we're immune

You get the guns, I'll store the bullets
The note together we will write,
Drop to hell where we're meant to be,

"I love red, don't you?" I say,
Bitter laughter at all the blood,
Life was never right for us,
And so we drown in a cherry flood

Disturbingly beautiful, just the way I like it :) No, as it seems, life and love never wanted me; nor did it want the few others that are waiting for me in Hell. Lets just wait till the end of our lifespan to meet them there, eh? We are worth the wait.

Always and never your walking contradiction,
April
