Array ( [sid] => 127046 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Ever since... [time] => 2006-10-17 12:52:21 [hometext] => ...i've never written back. [bodytext] => ever since the sand was grey
i built my castles all that way
in shambles, in ruins, in your image...

ever since i heard the sounds
i saw you in the blowing clouds
fading, and wasting, away with your tears

Now that my time is come
i shed my skin of rusty nails
What have all my pills become
but little bits of me to fill...

ever since my heart's been still
i let you in to share your kill
my wounds, my insides, are all you let me feed on

ever since the fence was built
i'm blind behind my cage of guilt
i see you, i slow down, is there no end to this barb wire?

Now's the time to need you
as i glance upon the mirror
Your ruby eyes will bleed through
but my sleep is somewhat nearer...

and off to the pillows of grey and red wine...
to sleep my love...to sleep.
