Short-term love
Long-term regret
A heart full of sorrow
And a song I can't forget
I just called to say I'm sorry
I need to know that you're okay
I don't love you like I used to
But I guess I'm still afraid
Wish I could just push rewind
Push play when I met you
So I could just leave you behind
Without the pain, without the love
You called to say you're sorry
But it's just the same old story
I don't love you like I used to
Now I'm just afraid
Short-term pain
Long-term relief &nb

Alone in the dark
I'm taken by surprise
By one bone-chilling laughing skull
And its dull, sightless eyes.
Quite mystified, and atremble with fright
I posed my query to that dreary demon in the night:
"Who are you, and from where did you come?"
My uninvited guest replied,
Turning to me his soulless eyes,
With merely another dreadful laugh.
I tried then to run, but my legs seemed quite numb,
So I tried to scream, but I had gone daft.

Hidden away where no one can hurt my heart.
Lock me in the closet,
Somewhere I can disappear,
Somewhere there are no angry voices to hear.
Lock me in a closet,
No room in here for fears,
Or light to expose my tears.
Lock me in a closet,
Where I can hide from you


Stay a WhileStay a WhileStay a While
Fingers of ice trace my spine While fire and brimstone invade my mind.
You, with your horridly inviting smile,
Open your black-lipped rictus to say,
"Stay a while."
Your breath and teeth suffer decay,
Your skin long since begun to rot away Yet from across the room I feel your disdain.
I on one side, you on the other
Of a thin chasm which cannot be crossed-- Yet I can't help but shudder As you examine a rusty blade.
I look to and fro,
But can't decide which way to go
And no longer remember which way I came.
I look back
