Meghan: family
No need for me to atone
Daddy dearest hear the screaming
All the while your thoughts are teeming
Of your perfect little girl
Who loves her not so perfect world
Hide your eyes and stop your ears
She might confirm your darkest fears
Then what would you do?
Daddy, Daddy, save me, save me
Daughter, Daughter,
What have you done?
Spare me, spare me, father dear,
I don’t want to run
You don’t have to, I will save you,
No matter what you’ve done
No matter what?
You would not, you were not, you were never there
I cannot, will not force you to care
So I’ll wear this shining mask
I can do this simple task
So you won’t
hate me
or maybe
break me?
I love you
you love me
we’re a happy family
with a great big hug and a kiss from me to you
won’t you say you love me too

Meghan: Standing
When it comes for you, what do you do?
When you suffer, when your world crashes down around you; that’s the moment when the truth comes out.
Do you hide, do you run? Or do you fight for what you want.
You may fall, and fall, and fall.
Who cares? Do you?
While you’re falling, you’re still living. Breathing, eating, knowing, seeing. All around you stars are dying, crying, lying; even when you see them shining.
What to do, tell me, tell me? Give me a drop of advice for my parched throat. Whet my lips with that sweet sympathy.
Oh, you’re killing me
Give me more
Love me, love me
Hate me, hate me
Just don’t make me give it up. I want this, I need this.
Kiss of Bliss
But what happens when you have to stand on just your two feet? Will you fall without those extra pairs?
Because nothing is forever
What if an army of legs can’t hold you up? What if?
Will you fall?
Hey, you still have two
And they work just fine

Meghan: Ashes
Dust to dust
Coals burn low
To bank the lust
Can you touch the
Fireglow
Ashes
Ashes
We
All
Fall
Down
Into
The
Well
Where
The
Children
Drown
Swim with the fish
And float in a bubble
This new dish
Is too much trouble
Double, double, toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble,
Can’t you make the world stop spinning?
Fix the heartbreak,
Stop the changes,
Soothe the pain and kill the dangers?
Heal the bloody broken dove
Fix this thing that we called love
-Meghan

Meghan: Break
I hate you
I just want to break you
Make you
Mmmmm…. Can’t you feel that?
Burn
Glory be, and glory me
Can the little people see?
Run girl run cause I will take you
Let me loose you know I’ll save you
Save me?
Oh you make me laugh
Laughing laughing
Down to the farm
Where the walls are white
All the doors locked tight
And these flames won’t dance anymore
Rattle those bars and shake those chains
Don’t you feel it?
I can’t stop it
Oh they’re breaking
Oh they’re crumbling
What? Come back my walls, my precious walls
What have you done?
Not me my love
Not me
you
-Meghan

Meghan: pride
Got a light?
Get out of my face
Unless you want to die
I’ll rip your heart and drink your blood
Ha ha
Hey now hey,
Calm down little girl
Think now think
Whatcha gonna do to me?
What do you want old man?
What do you want little boy?
Leering, sneering, snarled thing
Reaping suffering, sewing hate
Stop, just stop
Out, get out
Won’t, child, won’t
Can’t, child, can’t
You keep me
You hold me
You tie me to you
No, no
Yes, yes
Out, out
In, in
I will kill you
You will love me
I will die
Ha, ha
Hey now hey,
Who cares?
-Meghan
