Pray for Him
The Sullen Hero
Bleed with Her
His Ruptured Ego
Drives him forward, Blinkered Madness
Stale saliva burns her tongue
Mad dog foaming, hell spawn moans
The aria of tears has to be sung

She was too stubborn to leg go
And he was to vain
Doom
Doomed

Once remembered, Twice forgotten
Once endeavoured, utterly rotten
Truth disguised and paralysed
Categorised, neatly circumcised
She finds herself in a maze of strife
A starry eyed groupie of his tormented life
And he finds himself, he finds himself
On the sharp end of a knife
With a wife
In a cul-de-sac life

The youthful laughter, of yesterday’s
Carefree love, crumpled on the floor
Frustrated anger, the only child this union bore
Nothing left of what was before

Fear
The mother of all violence
Mental, verbal, cutting through the silence
Dreaded deadlock destiny
Two golden rings entwined in misery
And he hates all the things she does
Tries to remember how this came to pass
And she’s too clouded
To bring back the sun
His feelings shrouded
Rage cocked like a gun
So pray for her and bleed with him
And look upon the world
Can you see?
Doom

And they will never resolve it
So they go on
The Devil whispers softly
Matrimony
