Mirrors shattered
Tears of bleeding life
Screams ripping darkness
Blood on a glinting knife
XXX
A fragment of love
Caught in hell
Pieces of ragdolls
Scattered; oh, well
XXX
Broken lullabies
Singing of sunken ships
Heard by a broken heart
Sung by broken lips
XXX
Walls drenched in blood
A heart drenched in tears
A soul drenched in madness
A mind drenched in fears
XXX
"There's nothing I own! Nothing at all;
My house is the legion's*
My heart is my love's. My life is forfeit
And my soul is the demon's!"
XXX
Fragments and pieces
Of a stolen life
Flicker past dying eyes
Love and hatred; joy and strife
XXX
"Pathetic as I am
Shattered, broken, demented;
I curse the world that made me so
The devils that left me fragmented."

*I've often heard people refer to the government as 'The Legion' where I come from, and this refers to that.
