Favorite Quote:
"One bright day in the middle of the night
Two dead boys* got up to fight [*or men]
Back to back they faced each other
Drew their swords and shot each other

One was blind and the other couldn't see
So they chose a dummy for a referee.
A blind man went to see fair play
A dumb man went to shout "hooray!"
[or: And two lame men came to carry them away]

A paralysed donkey passing by
Kicked the blind man in the eye
Knocked him through a nine inch wall
Into a dry ditch and drowned them all

A deaf policeman heard the noise
And came to arrest the two dead boys
If you don't believe this story’s true,
Ask the blind man he saw it too! "-i have no idea who actually wrote this poem but it was quoted on the movie "Haunting In Conneticut."


She lives in a fairy tale
to far away from the world
to realize what is happening
She's forgotten how to look
through realities eyes
she falls into the devils arms
an angel in disguise
as he covers her with gentle kisses
he taints her a little more
raising the score
she's trapped in a castle
way to high up from the ground
to notice how he leaves
bodies lying around
he picks one by one
like a flower in the sun
takes who he chooses
covers them in bruises
uses them again and again
yet shes to blind to see
whats happening around her
hidden by shadows eyes
a lover in disguise
