[bodytext] => Touch the lips of modern fate Check your soul upon the gate Learn to live where nothing's yours Lose the key to open doors Ride the rails of innocence Feed the beasts of decadence Lust for all but never love Clip the wings of lonely doves Play for free but watch the strings Hang your head as mourners sing Dig a grave and make your bed Set the time lay down your head Drink the blood of all you've lost Max your card to pay the cost Hold your breath and dive right in Join the ranks of nether kin See yourself now born again Birthed by fire and spawned by pain See the world you've left behind Read the page you've gone and signed Hold your tears within your hands Is this what you really planned Check the road that brought you here Built on bones and paved with fear Lonely miles pass as you think Idle thoughts lead to the brink There's nowhere to turn around Tires sink in murky ground Flattened arch of true accent Horizontal accident Flying high but soon you fall Victim of the sirens call Setting sail on blood red seas Who was it you planned to please Do they know or speak your name Do they ever share the blame When is it you plan to stop Settle for just what you've got Is it more to dream and want Hunting all those same old haunts What is it you have not found What's the jew'l inside your crown What is worth all you've been through What's the most that you will do Is the point of no return Now the place you show concern Is the shame of all you've done Really all that makes you run See that shadow in your eyes Blackened clouds within your skies Run away though never free Feed the fires of meant to be Loose the chains of self restraint Take the pure and add your taint Dance the edge and cut your feet Drink the blood that tastes so sweet All these things can stretch your time Give the words for you to rhyme Hand you things that should not be Take the lock and leave the key All this may be what you want Words penned dark in distant font But the loss you never know Is the thing that makes us grow Wake with dawn another day Look around to find your way Say goodbye and step away Lost at last to judgment day Michael David Morash Copyright (c) 2003 [comments] => 3 [counter] => 168 [topic] => 43 [informant] => mdmorash [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
