Touch a Smile :)
Just started writing and it went somewhere lol ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A false wink A painted smile Flashing teeth drowning out a scowl A pristine mask Hiding thoughts so vile Shining eyes glittering with guile A loose grip A sharp bite Your vision pulsing in searing white Quiet thoughts Through the dimming light Final breaths and failing sight Vampire… That’s what they say Demon… At the break of day Climbing… Over bodies like Pretty little dolls Shattered faces on display… (No more time to play...) Beware my smile Touch only if you dare We could paint a mask To hide your lovely stare Win my game of tag And you might just keep your life But if I catch you once Pray you make it through the night Mmmmm Pretty doll, pretty doll You’ve got such a lovely smile Mmmmm Little star, little star Can I touch your painted smile? It’s just a game (ha ha) Just a game to me You speak my name? (oooooh) You’re just a game to me You sprinkle salt like holy tears Conquering your deepest fears But I’ve made it through these years The rules have changed for me It’s all a game to me (mmmm) Those little sticks can hit the bricks, your crucifix will never fix my evil ticks, my clever tricks so drop the candle, drop the bell, drop the pretense (Here’s my Hell!) Vampire… You’re so original Demon… A common criminal Climbing… Like something biblical You pretty little things Fighting back against decay… (Now it’s time to play!) Beware my smile Touch only if you dare We could paint a mask To hide your lovely stare Win my game of tag And you might just keep your life But if I catch you once Pray you make it through the night Mmmmm Pretty doll, pretty doll You’ve got such a lovely smile Mmmmm Little star, little star Can I touch your painted smile? I’m not the monster under your bed Not a creature creeping, eyes glowing red Not a banshee screaming through the wind and rain Not a wolf, not a witch, not the imminence of pain Just an unknown thing, inexplicable and smiling Making friends and then breaking them in styling Pretty dolls, with pretty scars, their painted smiles all feel so wrong I press my mask against your smile let’s keep it safe behind the song Behind those eyes, glassy and vile, my pretty doll with a list so long Listing fears, shedding tears, shaking loose a sigh Piercing through my ears like a battle cry Vampire… (Beware my smile) Demon… (Hiding thoughts so vile) Climbing… Onto the pile Of pretty little dolls Shattered faces on display… (Now it’s time to play!)
