Sonnet To Sleep Lights Out
you caved in, that house of glass is now your home
you left love waiting, empty handed by the door, never will return
now your lost in a stare, your lost in those eyes
find a way, touch me inside
when the lights go out, your heart fades to grey
it goes beyond the pale and nothing stays the same
and whos to blame, our friends and father all share the same contempt
they wore the same name
our prayers reaching, only to the ceiling, when your heart is not believing
so wear that crown king of pride, king of all who's fallen down
when the lights go out your heart turns away, the wax it becomes dry and it covers up the shame
we followed alison into the belly of the hole
you never realized how deep that hurt would go
when the lights go out, the saints fall away, we find sweet the bitter taste that long ago seemed so strange
