Lonely Compassion
"Lonely Compassion"
Agony strangling infant's breath
Sharpening knives on naked flesh
Get lost in the mushroom in bloom
Kiss traces of a melancholy moon
Fear has begun building it's scars
But paint your dreams in the stars
Search beneath decaying remains
Shadows always flowing their veins
Oh mirror, mirror hide the reflection
Scar tissue hid under imperfection
Tourniquets of hate, choke passion
Sculpted stone, lonely compassion
Pounding drums embracing rage
Refuse the turning of another page
Promises in gold, silence violence
Dealers of death, the killer of giants
The Punk Poe…
Always Be Punk…
Always Be Drunk…
