River

I pray for reply
  But silence entangles my heart
    Yet again
  I can only be half

Their mouths move
Teeth chewing at the breeze
Nothing
And words are meaningless
    Yet again

I stare into the eyes of my Cerberus
Reflection of insanity glaring
  Back at me
Ironic that I can't see myself
In my own image anymore

Only pictures
Dead men, laughing in their coffins
As I walk past the beast
Six, six, six
A bundle of needles built on my house of Styx

There is no one here but me
My fairy shalt keep skipping past
There is no passage
For just half a man

I take my first foot forward
And call out my name into the distance

    I pray for reply
  But silence entangles my heart
    Yet again
  I can only be half
My step finds me buried in marsh
  Again
Again
    Again
  Again

Napoleon stares me in the eyes

"      Where
  Did you
      Come from?    "

Conquer, be conquered
  Live and die.

What happened to tomorrow
My family and friends
When they betrayed with steely knives
Myself the Rouge of Dreams
Heavy head fell
  From my bony shoulders

When I went to meet Claus
For the last time

Eva held my hands
Clasping for the last time
Upon my perverse memories
She took me in her breasts
And I won't forget those tears

Charon...
  Please take me away
I pray for reply
  But silence entangles my heart
    Yet again
  I can only be half
  Again
Again    Again
      Again
  Again    Again

But I stare Satan in the eyes
Across the flames and rhinestones
As my foot falls in gasoline
My army in myne hand.

Please play my cruel melody
When I fall flat on my face
Blood spilled for humility's sake
When I fall in your arms
Spew my thousand lies
And walk the miles with you
For both our sakes

Charon, Charon, Charon...
