Array ( [sid] => 86565 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => My Heaven [time] => 2005-03-05 20:44:24 [hometext] => [bodytext] => There’s a trick being played
In the corner of my eye
And when I turn my head
Everything seems fine
I would laugh, I would smile
But instead I just cry
I can’t close my eyes
I can’t shut out my mind

I have heard of a place to go
Where everything is disillusioned
Where everything is perfect
It has been ignored for so long
Windows shattered, corpses rotting
It is all just a wreck…my heaven

I don’t know how
To get to that place though
And driving off the edge
Of the world wouldn’t help
All I know
Is that I have to go
But I don’t even know
What to do with myself

I fall away
Into the depths of my conciousness
There I will find nothingness
Living, breathing
Makes me want to fall away
I’ve messed everything up anyway

I’ve shattered windows
Passed by rotting corpses
I think I have been here before
I refuse to clean dried blood
I won’t disturb a thing
It’s just something I chose to ignore

My little piece of heaven
Of which angel shield their eyes
Where you don’t have to disguise
All the sickening pain and lies [comments] => 1 [counter] => 161 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Ataraxia [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

My Heaven
