Wreckage of Fiends

Standing on broken lines
Pacing the streets
Stop!  Caution or sign?

Turn from Reality onto the one-way Dreams
Continue until you reach the screams of Death
Life is ticking no time to rest
Push forward to the gravel of escape

You can’t turn back now it’s too late
Reality always has a scheme
How do you know memories from your dreams?

Prick a hole in your skin…now are you awake?
How to choose what you hold in your arms
A Mother’s love—warm embrace
A lover’s frame—with or without shame

What ever happened to what’s their name?
The one who made you special, before,
Chemical created every occasion

Guest of honor…you
A kingdom that travels
Through a fiend to crown a King
And, dethrone a Queen
