Haystack Charm

There and here and back again

They say this too shall pass

But April showers bring May rain

Subtler fainter shades of pain

I know that you prefer a lie

Prefer to think its peachy keen

But I see through rose-specs that

Illuminate a shade of green-

An ugly insurrection

That mirrors your reflection

And I feel the need to flee

Like a far-gone beaten wife

But escape is never final till

You kill what keeps you up at night

And what I'm up against

Demands a massacre

And what I need the most is sleep

But no matter how appealing

And no matter how befitting

Requiting you won't make ends meet

Your face has disappeared

Into the blackened void

Just another two-timer

Who's tongue I can't avoid

You've no idea the damage you've done

And it's clear to the whole world who's won

But divided are the ones who judge

Split right down the middle-

With support from a grudge

I could care less about what I've lost

And who you've gained

And frankly I prefer

The dark and the rain

I've always been a different level

Of insane

But I rather burn in hell

Then breathe in this underhanded,

Wretched spell

Made up of all my flaws

And warning bells

And hisses from your cold death knell

That rings of all the ones who fell

And all the souls you chose to sell

And all those tainted wish-you-wells

You thought that I could never tell-

But doers rarely dream

And breakers rarely bend

You're exactly as you seem

To he, she and them

But I see through a glass, lightly

Every single night
