dreams lie shattered shards endure now the wraiths her mind possess   like shells of precious flowers dried out and hung with love   making eyes into frozen temples that stale you in her gaze   so pale so cold so beautiful if not clinically insane      now the decades pass unanswered and she prays with silent lips   sometimes she talks to angels when she has her little fits   but you must believe in something - sometimes that something's real   sometimes our motivations are tied up in what we feel      so elegant her poetry falls from her pallid lips   she flows like icy roadways when the wheels start to slip   and if her course lays waste to this i pray away to your design   her minions shall dance your dreaming eyes and sing her fragile rhymes      now the decades pass unanswered and she prays with silent lips   sometimes she talks to angels when she has her little fits   but you must believe in something - sometimes that something's real   sometimes our motivations are tied up in what we feel      Ave Maria   just give us something   but it's lost on deafened ears   Ave Maria   just give us something   to ears that cannot hear      now the decades pass unanswered and she prays with silent lips   sometimes she talks to angels when she has her little fits   but you must believe in something - sometimes that something's real   sometimes our motivations are tied up in what we feel      Ave Maria   just give us something   but it's lost on deafened ears   Ave Maria   she's saying something   to ears that cannot hear      Ave Maria   just give us something   but it's lost on deafened ears   Ave Maria   if god is speaking   she's the only one who hears.
