Summon ambition,

Collect strength in shoes losing soul.

Trip over wrinkles in adversity.

Lead hallucinations

Down the spiral staircase screaming.

“Empower the mask, represent the faceless.”

Tell me a story.

Picture perfect thousand words.

Paint by number.

Picture perfect thousand words.

Extend the landscape from tongue to ear.

Invite the vampires, taste the fear.

Picture perfect thousand words.

Inscribe history with a mark pressed into skin.

Street lights, prize fight, rescue mission.

You’ve lost me somewhere between the fog and page 37.

Clear through the haze.

Tell me a story

Picture perfect thousand words.

Paint by number.

Picture perfect thousand words.

Extend the landscape from tongue to ear.

Invite the vampires, taste the fear.

Picture perfect thousand words.

Let loose descriptions, depict the fight for free will.

Celebrate departure.

Anniversary coming to senses.

Short the wires, shock the weak,

Speak for many circus freaks.

Secret meetings, hand shakes,

Square peg in a round hole.

Tell me a story…
