Sorry to see the shadows fade
the fivefaced fiends revealed
from beneath hiding in reality
The ones with lost souls
pushing and pulling to drown
friends from before, but nevermore
whispered deceits and torn receipts
of favours long gone and spent
on hurting they are hellbent
not a request, an uninvited guest
the paranoia that spreads
in veins going cold from lies
and you turn and you see them
gleeful smiles all around
it's not strange that we learn
to mistrust and deceive
when all we hold in our hands
are hands that turn to dust
while a cold laughter ripples
the surface of a peaceful mind

Vivid imagery - I think every time you put something up I comment on that, but it's something you always really manage.
"whispered deceits and torn receipts

I like that part
The end is also really nice:
"it's not strange that we learn
to mistrust and deceive
when all we hold in our hands
are hands that turn to dust
while a cold laughter ripples
the surface of a peaceful mind"
hands that aren't there when we need them, supposed to help us up and not fall back but that's what they do, it's very vivid. And then the mind, as if it's an ocean that's thrown into turmoil by other people, like foreign objects thrown into water, rippling its surface and breaking the peace. I like that image.
thank you alex for your comment =)
i love stronge images, love to pile it on sort of.. typ grädde på moset. om man redan har en stark bild kan man alltid göra den ännu starkare: istället för en smekning blir det en rejäl käftsmäll. if you get my meaning =) heh
