    Sleep Well Tonight

    The depths below have taken time,
    My faded lines have broken skin,
    Mouth sewn shut by vermillion wrists,
    Eyes opened and silenced screams escape,

    Sleep well tonight,
    And I'll wake up the gray,
    Scars that remain unhealed,

    Days of colour drain to black,
    Bury your mercies I derserve this,
    A bitter wind that wastes the hours,
    Cursed memories that leave hearts comatose,

    The depths below have taken life,
    My faded lines have broken worlds,
    Days of colour turn to winter,
    I'll bury my mercies you derserve this,

    Fragile shell,
    So break with care,
    Rusted life,
    Sever nightimes,
    Drank the empty cup,
    Everything changes the devil in me.


    ...thoughts please
