    She looks up at the creature, a satyr from what she can tell. “Oh, hello! Yes, I can give you a hand. How’d you get up there, satyr?”

       “I just need you to listen. I have to tell a secret to someone. Something I’ve never told anyone to get these vines to release me.”

FALL INTO YOUR ARMS

❝ you don’t listen to me anymore. ❞ ❝ your voice is a weapon, and we’ll do with it what we can. ❞ ❝ i’ll fall into your arms again. ❞

BITE DOWN

❝ you don’t have to look any further. ❞ ❝ i’ve been waiting here for you for a time. ❞ ❝ you’re missing what is right before your eyes. ❞ ❝ no one’s gonna stick the pieces together for you. ❞ ❝ you’ve got your claws buried deep. ❞ ❝ you better sink your teeth before i disappear. ❞ ❝ i’m trying to keep my composure. ❞ ❝ you’ve been looking me over. ❞ ❝ i’m tired of waving my arms in the back of the line. ❞ ❝ there are only so many times that i can come running. ❞ ❝ and there are only so many times that i can come running for you. ❞

BAD NEWS

❝ what do you say? ❞ ❝ air knocked out of my lungs, your cue to stay. ❞ ❝ yeah, that’s your cue to stay. ❞ ❝ don’t turn your back on me. ❞ ❝ don’t bury your head deep just cause you don’t know what to say. ❞ ❝ it’s true that it kicks you in the teeth when you are least expecting. ❞ ❝ oh it beats you black and blue before you see it coming. ❞ ❝ bad news like a sucker punch threw me away. ❞ ❝ people fill the streets like nothing has changed. ❞ ❝ they don’t look the same. ❞ ❝ maybe i just want some words of distraction. ❞ ❝ i feel like i’m being consumed. ❞ ❝ maybe i’m expecting the perfect reaction to pull me back. ❞

THE DRIVER

❝ shout out from the bottom of my lungs. ❞ ❝ this thing. it’s a family affair. ❞ ❝ it’s drawing out my weakness. ❞ ❝ there was a time when a moment like this wouldn’t ever cross my mind. ❞ ❝ the sun will rise with my name on your lips. ❞ ❝ ‘cause everything will change tonight. ❞ ❝ i want to be back on the ground where my feet touch my shadow. ❞ ❝ i want to dig my heels in the dirt, feel it break between all my toes. ❞ ❝ anything to stop floating ‘round. ❞ ❝ take breath and push the anger down. ❞ ❝ try to remember calmness.  ❞ ❝ what’s the gravity upon your face? ❞ ❝ so i’m the one who’s bleeding. ❞ ❝ real men. always thinking with y/our fists. ❞ ❝ my turn to be the victim. ❞

AXE TO GRIND

❝ long lost opinions, all the words you can’t redeem. ❞ ❝ don’t come round here and be a slave to old ideas. ❞ ❝ scream hallelujah if it’s a thing that helps you breathe. ❞ ❝ your iron rule has often had me on my knees. ❞ ❝ you better sharpen up ‘cause all you have is your axe to grind round here.  ❞ ❝ breaking the silence like i’m bursting at the seams. ❞ ❝ so many stifled thoughts and long forgotten dreams. ❞ ❝ i can almost taste reprieve. ❞ ❝ keep on talking to yourself. ❞ ❝ ‘cause no one needs to hear the words your read. ❞ ❝ ‘cause you’re gonna have to swing that axe round here. ❞

TORN APART PT. I & II

❝ i could only be myself with you around. ❞ ❝ and now there’s nothing left for me to think about. ❞ ❝ and it hurts like hell. ❞ ❝ we were born to be together, torn apart. ❞ ❝ you stepped with a heavy tread and left your mark. ❞ ❝ oh, you left your mark on me. ❞ ❝ it hurts like hell to be torn apart, to be thrown around. ❞ ❝ my yin and yang is killin’ me. ❞ ❝ gotta get back, back to the synergy. ❞ ❝ don’t forget where i been. ❞ ❝ but you’re gonna remember. ❞ ❝ buddy i, i don’t mean to kill your vibe. ❞ ❝ but if you got it, you get it, and i’ve been gettin’ this shit for a long time. ❞ ❝ happiness only brings heartache. ❞ ❝ i’m so beyond naughty. ❞ ❝ and if you don’t like it then why do you want me? ❞ ❝ don’t front if i tickle the strings on your heart. ❞ ❝ you play second fiddle to my instrumental. ❞ ❝ your critical nature departs in the middle of all of my riddles. ❞ ❝ you’ve given up trying, and now you just tear me apart. ❞

WEAPON

❝ this is a vocal confession. ❞ ❝ right now your cause is at war. ❞ ❝ right now your voice is a weapon. ❞ ❝ watch all the storms on the rise. ❞ ❝ no more falling to pressure. ❞ ❝ no more failing acceptance. ❞ ❝ throw all your hells towards the heavens. ❞ ❝ we dance with the devils and make your halos the color of sinners’ portraits. ❞ ❝ and smothering it means everything’s lovely again. ❞ ❝ nothing’s quite as it seems. ❞ ❝ society’s altered, you see. ❞ ❝ kill all your fear in your sleep. ❞ ❝ cause everything’s formed in a dream. ❞ ❝ breathe in insanity’s grip. ❞ ❝ those are words from insanity’s lips. ❞ ❝ we’re falling from sanity’s cliff. ❞ ❝ you’re watching your vanity slip. ❞ ❝ run before the evil erupts. ❞ ❝ this is volcanic feverish lust. ❞ ❝ vengeance is me speaking up. ❞ ❝ this is me speaking up. ❞ ❝ choose your words and etch them on your soul. ❞ ❝ make them heard when crowds drown out your call. ❞ ❝ leave behind your questions, silent thoughts and mentions. ❞ ❝ a wake has to be left, so never falter down. ❞ ❝ so do with it what you can. ❞

REMAINS

❝ i came here for sanctuary. ❞ ❝ to be away from the winds and the sounds of the city. ❞ ❝ i came here to get some peace. ❞ ❝ yes, way down here where the shadows are heavy. ❞ ❝ i can’t help but think of you. ❞ ❝ in these four walls, my thoughts seem to wonder. ❞ ❝ to some distant century where everyone we know is six feet under. ❞ ❝ so when all of your friends are dead and just a memory, and we’re side by side? ❞ ❝ it’s always been just you and me for all to see. ❞ ❝ when our lives are over and all that remains are our skulls and bones, let’s take it to the grave. ❞ ❝ hold me in your arms. ❞ ❝ i’ll be buried here with you. ❞ ❝ i’ll hold in these hands all that remains. ❞ ❝ i don’t want to rest in peace. ❞ ❝ we can haunt each other’s dreams. ❞ ❝ we’ll fight underneath this surf, bicker away in the darkness. ❞ ❝ we’ll find our way to result away from the lands of the living. ❞ ❝ we’ll find a common ground and fall in love all over again. ❞ ❝ all of our friends are dead and just a memory. ❞ ❝ from dusk ‘til dawn, the other’s screams grow silent  ❞ ❝ i know i chased a memory. ❞ ❝ but you used to taste so sweet. ❞ ❝ as you faded away, i realized it’s all over. ❞ ❝ nothing stays the same. ❞

ALANA:

@xmarko cont.

            “Like complete and utter shit,” an honest confession against his lips. Though Marko’s kiss DID do its job : separating her ( if only momentarily ) from those invasive thoughts plaguing her mind. “But cared for shit, so I guess I’ve got that going for me.” Alana leans back, sinking further into the bench as if hoping its slab of wood would open up and swallow her whole. “Might want to try that again and see if the results vary.”

       As he should expect, reality would never change with a kiss, regardless of how they did wonders for them in the past. “I know it’s hard to grow accustomed to a new place, but we’ve done this together before.” He glances to his right, from where he can hear the distant giggles of their daughter, running around with her new little friend. “She likes it.” Marko reaches for her hand and leans closer for a second kiss, and this time it lingers.

       A quick peck. He hoped that’s what it would take for his wife to stop thinking about whatever was ruining her mood, whatever was wiping that beautiful smile from her face. He couldn’t allow that. She deserved to enjoy this day. “How do you feel now?”

 ’ ‘  i’m not trying to do that whole dismissive thing, but… i’m dismissing it.  ’ ‘  alright. alright, man. you just gotta chill.  ’ ‘  i thought ‘glory hole’ used to mean something very innocuous, though.  ’ ‘  it’s where the men fucked the earth hoping to impregnate it with gold.  ’ ‘  a bug flew up my nose.  ’ ‘  i think i’ve swallowed about six tablespoons of bugs at this point.  ’ ‘  it’s so silent aside from the bugs in my ears.  ’ ‘  a bat flew right behind you just now.  ’ ‘  that bat was straight-up going for your ass… it was an ass bat.  ’ ‘  dude, i’m so nervous.  ’ ‘  how can you be nervous with a beautiful sunset like that?  ’ ‘  there’s some pretty shitty things that have happened to people around here.  ’ ‘  can you even look at least a little bit worried?  ’ ‘  yeah, i’m fucking nervous, man. i feel like i’m gonna vomit.  ’ ‘  we’re all assholes here.  ’ ‘  i don’t know why i phrased it ‘lucky for us.’ i think i was feeling brave when i wrote this.  ’ ‘  yeah, this isn’t lucky for you at all.  ’ ‘  i’m gonna try and avoid saying ‘demon’ as much as i can.  ’ ‘  i’m not gonna let you goad me into this, i know what you’re trying to do.  ’ ‘  shut up. we’re moving on.  ’ ‘  you know what? i’m not trying to scare you, but… i got a bad feeling about this one.  ’ ‘  why are you unbuttoning your pants? we’re in public right now.  ’ ‘  oh… you’ve out-dumbed yourself.  ’ ‘  you know, i thought this was gonna be funny, but now i’m actually happy that i have it.  ’ ‘  i’m a whole other coin. just like a chill ass wheat-back penny.  ’ ‘  i’m doing it for the betterment of the science.  ’ ‘  any demons here? you got any demons out tonight? any horn-y boys or whatever they are.  ’ ‘  you may not like this… i’m gonna try to agitate it.  ’ ‘  you do what you gotta do and i’ll do what i gotta do.  ’ ‘  i’m just gonna be as crude as possible here.  ’ ‘  no, no, no. just right out of the gate. why build up?  ’ ‘  if you don’t believe then there’s nothing for you to be afraid of, right?  ’ ‘  you can be is big of a prick as you want, but i’m staying over here.  ’ ‘  if you want me off this bridge, you’re gonna have to kill me.  ’ ‘  nope! don’t loop me into your shit!  ’ ‘  stop looping me. i hate when you do this to me in demon places.  ’ ‘  i’m not part of his little charade.  ’ ‘  children will come here and tell tales about me.  ’ ‘  shut the fuck up – i’m gonna murder you.  ’ ‘  oh what a load of horse shit.  ’ ‘  oh, skip the theatrics and just go into it.  ’ ‘  if you want me off this bridge, you’re gonna have to throw me off.  ’ ‘  you gotta admit, that is an effective technique.  ’ ‘  no, it’s not an effective technique. it’s a way to get killed.  ’ ‘  that’s not how you get them, shut up.  ’ ‘  when’s the last time you ever walked into the dark woods?  ’ ‘  this is so much scarier than hunting fucking sasquatch.  ’ ‘  people usually feel overcome with emotion in here, like a violent emotion.  ’ ‘  give me a heads up if you start to feel murderous. i would appreciate that.  ’ ‘  by the way, these woods are also scary because of the people that might be in there.  ’ ‘  i mean, people are greater threats than demons or ghouls.  ’ ‘  i can’t fight, you can’t fight.  ’ ‘  you’re like one of those carwash floaty things that are out front just wiggling around.  ’ ‘  anyone doing up to no good out here?  ’ ‘  one of these times we’re gonna die.  ’ ‘  oh shit! there’s something over there. i don’t know what it is, but the bushes are moving.   ’ ‘  i just heard a scream.  ’ ‘  well, if we just make it seem like we’re in on it, like… we’re here for the cult stuff.  ’ ‘  we’re here for the cult stuff. we saw the ad on craigslist.  ’ ‘  it feels weird to even joke. i’m so fucking scared right now.  ’ ‘  oh sure they’d be hiding in the bushes. they’re cultists.  ’ ‘  i keep collecting spiderwebs on my face and now i’m just sort of immune to them. i’m just letting them accumulate.  ’ ‘  well, you are just a giant stick walking around.  ’ ‘  oh, this looks fun… an odd collection of branches. looks like a witch lair or something.  ’ ‘  hello?
