Denial I feel the cat’s claws, digging into my tongue When my reflection, asks who I am I never mourned you Just fed you to my shadow Heartbreak led to hedonism Created a cornucopia of denial With neatly decorated lies And cleverly crafted excuses Disenchanted and desensitized Desperately...

Phantoms Saw myself reflected in you Thought I could stop my pain By being your tourniquet Tried so hard, to keep our cravings From carving their way into consciousness But they severed our serenity And divorced our love from trust Denial taught me how to lie Found clever places To hide from...
