VICTORIA’S
SONG
TEENAGER
I
do
not
hear
your
voice.
Your
words
are
slowly
forming.
I
do
not
feel
your
touch.
I
woke
up
next
to
you
a
stranger
every
morning.
I
just
keep
asking
myself,
do
I
not
want
this?
I
just
keep
telling
myself,
but
then
I
wonder
why.
You
come
to
life
and
then
you
open
up
your
eyes
And
you’re
a
teenager.
You
met
a
boy,
you
took
some
pills
and
drank
too
much
And
you’re
a
teenager.
It’s
problematic,
it’s
all
so
problematic,
you’re
a
teenager.
You’d
tell
yourself
but
you
don’t
ever
think
aloud
‘Cause
you’re
a
teenager.
I
start
to
drown
‘neath
her
Victorian
gowns,
I
swear
she
just
lays
back
and
thinks
of
England.
So
undeserved
like
her
Victorian
crown,
She
is
embedded
in
the
fate
of
England.
Are
you
still
in
the
void?
And
you’re
giving
up
nothing
to
leave
it
all
behind…
And
you’re
giving
up
nothing
to
leave
it
all
behind,
Anna.
Are
you
still
in
the
void?
Your
hands
are
cold
and
you
don’t
ever
sleep
alone
And
you’re
a
teenager.
Mascara
running
from
your
eyes
and
you
don’t
mind
‘Cause
you’re
a
teenager.
It’s
problematic,
oh
don’t
be
so
dramatic,
You’re
a
teenager.
But
you
will
bury
the
lies
And
you’ll
finally
abandon
them,
a
teenager.
LEAVE
THE
PROPHETS
DEAD
WHERE
THEY
LIE
You
took
your
own
world
into
your
own
mind,
and
by
your
own
hand
then
you
took
your
own
life.
You
saw
your
own
face,
took
your
own
bad
advice,
and
by
the
motorway
you
stood
on
your
own
at
night.
You
took
your
inner
space,
you
took
your
own
light,
you
dug
your
own
grave,
no
way
to
get
out
alive.
You
felt
your
own
pain,
could
not
identify,
and
then
a
man
he
came
speaking
from
another
time.
Leave
the
prophets
dead
where
they
lie,
there’s
no
time
to
regain
our
thoughts.
Judas,
Judas,
I
can’t
believe
you
thought
I
was
a
mortal,
a
mortal.
You
built
your
own
shame,
betrayed
your
own
kind,
reviled
your
own
fame,
abhorred
your
own
sight.
Destroyed
your
own
name,
stared
at
the
antichrist.
You
saw
out
of
phase,
it
happened
overnight.
You
lost
your
own
way,
you
didn’t
realize
you
were
your
own
plague
surfacing
from
deep
inside.
And
these
are
dark
days,
you
lost
your
mortal
right.
It
left
you
hanging
in
the
field
with
no
way
left
to
fight.
DARK
ROMANTIC
I’m
trying
to
find
the
words
to
say
the
things
that
I
would
do
to
you.
I
haven’t
even
slept
for
days.
My
head
is
filled
with
bits
of
gloom.
I
can’t
control
the
things
I
say,
I
can’t
help
what
I’ve
turned
into.
I
feel
like
I
have
gone
insane.
Oh
God,
I’m
not
quite
sure
what
I
might
do...
Read
the
subtext
in
the
words
I
say.
Would
you
stalk
me
just
like
I
do
you?
A
hand
upon
the
window
pane.
As
you
glance
it’s
disappeared
from
view.
It
feels
like
I’m
just
out
of
range.
Undress
you
in
your
darkened
room.
I’ll
be
beside
you
when
you
wake.
Oh
God,
I
want
to
feel
inside
you
girl.
If
they
tear
us
apart,
what
would
bring
us
together?
When,
together
we’ll
know
failure.
Your
blue‐grey
eyes
are
peering
up
towards
the
skies
and
I
know
they
do
not
have
a
fate
like
ours.
And
I
am
there
around
you
every
day.
I
watch
you
in
your
vapid
moods.
I’m
closer
now
than
when
I
came
towards
you
in
a
crowded
room.
And
you
don’t
even
know
my
name,
but
trust
me
girl
that
I
know
you.
I
know
what
lies
inside
your
gaze.
Oh
God,
it’s
more
than
I
could
ever
lose.
SARAH
SMITH
I
must
have
seen
you
ten
times
lately
flirting
with
me
unmistakably.
Now
you
cannot
seem
to
face
me.
Fingertips
dab
silent
tears,
your
memories
drown
fragile
years,
and
all
the
while
you’re
stranded
here,
right?
I
fear
I’m
wide‐awake
in
this
conversation.
Fuck
me,
Sarah.
Fuck
me,
Sarah.
I’m
falling
like
a
wave
and
my
legs
are
shaking.
Fuck
me,
Sarah.
Fuck
me,
Sarah.
You’re
blurring
all
the
sordid
lines.
I
can’t
even
talk.
I’m
staring
at
your
face,
I
want
to
get
you
off.
I’ve
come
so
far
and
on
the
way
I’ve
justified
the
thought.
And
though
you’ll
fuck
me,
Sarah,
you’ll
never
break
me,
Sarah!
I
can’t
describe
these
thoughts
that
I
keep
selfishly
inside,
for
if
I
speak
them
out
loud
it
would
destroy
these
Moments
that
have
kept
us
here
as
comatose
sculptures
for
years,
and
I
can
feel
you
disappearing.
I’m
calling
just
to
weaken
the
situation.
Fuck
me,
Sarah.
Fuck
me,
Sarah.
I
can’t
control
the
form
that
my
grief
has
taken.
Fuck
me,
Sarah.
Fuck
me,
Sarah.
I’m
tearing
off
your
poor
disguise.
I
can’t
even
talk.
My
body
starts
to
shake.
I
can’t
control
my
thoughts.
I’ve
gone
too
far
with
no
restraint.
I
can’t
survive
the
loss.
And
though
you’ll
fuck
me,
Sarah,
you’ll
never
break
me,
Sarah!
WE
WILL
BECOME
ENEMIES
SATELLITES
I
feel
our
disorder,
the
cracks
in
our
mortar.
I
fail
when
you
test
me,
don’t
know
what
your
threats
mean.
And
fuck
all
your
lame
friends,
they
hate
me,
I
don’t
blame
them.
I
wish
I
was
no
one,
I’ve
lost
all
control
and
She
was
a
runaway,
lost
in
an
ancient
time.
She
came
from
far
away,
a
place
of
dark
design.
And
when
the
satellites
came,
she
lost
her
vacant
mind.
She
saw
her
own
life
shown
in
overblown
light.
End
it,
Elisa!
Oh
Goddamn
Elisa!
They're
returning.
She
was
a
hurricane;
debris
scattered
through
time.
She
cursed
the
path
she
made
and
set
her
past
on
fire.
And
when
the
satellites
came,
she
lost
her
vacant
mind.
And
she
was
unborn,
hailing
down
with
thunder.
Kill
it
Elisa!
Oh
Goddamn
Elisa!
You're
returning.
I’m
boring
and
I
feel
our
disorder
start
to
make
an
exit
too
real.
I
stare
into
the
eyes
of
the
girl,
I
find
it
makes
an
exit
too
real.
This
is
not
fucking
love.
This
is
not
how
it
is
supposed
to
be.
Just
stare
in
my
vague
eyes,
they’re
so
dead.
I
realize
it
hurts
when
I
do
this,
so
fuck
me
I’m
useless.
I
cannot
control
it,
I
feel
like
it’s
hopeless.
And
is
it
an
ending,
I’m
tired
of
pretending.
I’ve
burned
it,
I’ve
done
it,
I
don’t
have
to
feel
it…
I
see
through
your
apogee
Distant
turning,
nothing
more
you
will
not
reach
perigee
Though
you’ve
wanted
nothing
more…
And
when
the
satellites
came,
she
lost
her
vacant
mind.
She
saw
her
own
life
shown
in
overblown
light.
Kicking
infant;
sore
eyes;
desolation;
death.
And
when
the
satellites
came,
she
lost
her
vacant
mind.
And
she
was
unborn,
hailing
down
with
thunder
Sinking
further
under,
fading
in
its
depths.
And
when
the
satellites
came
I
found
a
reason
To
break
this
chain,
no
longer
freezing.
Only
trace
remains,
burning
up
into
a
final
phase
And
when
the
satellites
came,
all
forces
leaving,
Nothing
to
maintain.
No
longer
fleeting.
But
a
certain
drain,
turning
now
into
a
dark
decay.
Kill
it
all,
Elisa.
End
it
all,
Elisa.
RX
VICTIMS
We’re
rats
in
a
maze
sometimes
I
want
more,
but
this
is
our
emotion,
we’re
crippled
by
emotion.
I
turn
into
this
thing
and
now
I
can’t
ignore,
that
this
is
our
emotion,
we’re
victims
of
emotion.
Something’s
coming
in
the
waves,
something
from
before.
Oh
yes
it’s
our
emotion,
we’re
twisted
by
emotion.
I
can’t
control
the
things
that
I
can’t
explore.
It’s
sick,
it’s
our
emotion,
we’re
prisoners
of
emotion.
I
sit
in
the
asylum
on
the
seventh
floor,
and
this
is
our
emotion,
we’re
slaves
to
our
emotion.
And
the
doctor
sits
before
me
in
the
sadness
ward,
we
talk
about
emotion,
we’re
blinded
by
emotion.
I’m
breathing
in
the
sickness
of
sterile
corridor,
it’s
like
emotion,
we’re
fractured
by
emotion.
I
look
into
the
mirror
and
my
face
distorts,
but
this
is
an
emotion,
we’re
failures
of
emotion.
I’m
fixed
in
the
head
but
now
I
want
more.
I
miss
this
sick
emotion,
I’m
lost
without
emotion.
I’m
walking
in
a
daze
like
a
living
corpse.
I
need
to
feel
emotion,
I’m
dead
without
emotion
I’m
itching
in
my
skin,
I
just
need
something
more.
I
guess
I
need
emotion,
We’re
made
to
feel
emotion
I
just
assume
I’ll
find
it
in
another
form.
I’m
sick
without
emotion,
we’re
strangers
to
emotion.
A
BROKEN
MIRROR
Did
you
see
my
veins
through
the
blood
that’s
running
down
my
fingers?
Did
you
see
my
face
when
you
caught
a
glimpse
of
the
darkened
figure?
Do
you
trust
yourself,
or
do
you
put
your
faith
in
something
bigger?
Did
you
fade
away
when
I
turned
around
and
told
you
it
was
gone?

Did
you

yourself
run
away?
Do
you
see
my
face
through
the
shape
of
a
broken
mirror?
It’s
not
any
clearer.
Do
you
see
my
thoughts
through
a
lens
that’s
become
prismatic?
It’s
all
so
erratic.

CASSIE
AINSWORTH
I
dread
your
name,
let
your
vile
light
go.
I
stayed
awake
till
the
dawn,
is
this
my
fate?
I
dread
your
name
but
I
can’t
let
go.
You
let
yourself
grow
insecure
in
my
wake.
I
turn
away
but
your
violence
grows.
Internal
pain
is
tyrant
ghost
in
me.
Return
your
gaze
while
you
lie
there
stoned.
Your
body
fades
to
return
in
front
of
me
Too
many
nights
we
lied
awake…
Restrained
and
bored,
It’s
a
morgue,
it’s
your
manic
hope.
Something
in
my
heart
says
Cassie,
it’s
over.
Something
in
my
heart
says
Cassie,
I
know.
Something
in
my
heart
says
Cassie,
forget
me.
Something
in
my
heart
says
now
I
know.
I
felt
your
pain,
it’s
your
finite
soul;
a
mirror
wraith
standing
darkly
in
your
place.
Your
thoughts
remain
but
you
can’t
let
go.
You’re
like
a
void
in
the
dark
expanse
of
space
RICHEY
EDWARDS
TRACES
I
don’t
need
you,
I’m
lost
in
my
own
time.
I’m
feeling
you,
crossed
in
the
phone
line.
I’m
always
alone;
no
one
has
ever
had
me.
And
as
I
stare
from
the
bridge,
maybe
then
you
will
understand
me
Absorbed
in
our
fear,
we
could
never
start
again.
The
glare
of
your
blinding
arm
recoils
in
the
mirror.
I’ll
pretend
you’ve
passed
away
to
cast
away
a
dying
heart.
Am
I
awake?
I
can’t
sense
the
daylight.
These
memories
fade,
abandoned
in
plain
sight.
I’ll
never
let
go
of
the
past
that
has
now
become
me.
And
in
the
absence
of
light,
there
is
only
the
memory
of
me.
Absorbed
in
our
fear,
we
could
never
start
again.
The
glare
of
your
blinding
arm
recoils
in
the
mirror.
I’ll
pretend
you’ve
passed
away
to
cast
away
a
dying
heart.
I’m
torn
by
the
fear
that
we’ll
never
start
again.
The
glare
of
your
selfish
harm
adorned
me
for
years.
Now
I’ll
mend
the
past
I
failed
to
cast
away
a
dying
heart.
These
Severn
ghosts
can
sense
us
here,
they’ve
been
calling
out
for
years.
Their
voices
echo
on
the
breeze.
I
feel
their
darkness
touching
you,
touching
me…
DREAD
CITY
Our
name
in
lights,
we
stood
that
night
staring
at
the
circle.
They
screamed
our
names;
the
dread,
the
fame.
If
we
don’t
die
the
earth
will.
I
jumped
into
a
sea
of
youth,
looking
for
the
answer.
You
closed
your
eyes
for
the
last
time,
another
lifeless
dancer.
Burning
in
the
silver
sun,
drowning
in
the
acid
sea.
Floating
in
the
hollow
sky,
calling
up
the
devil
in
me.
Acidia…
What
have
you
done
to
me?
You
called
my
name,
the
darkness
came.
I
couldn’t
hear
you
call.
I
was
in
a
trance
of
circumstance.
You
slowly
watched
me
fall.
REGRESSION
Try
your
best

Looking
