Needing a new outlet to use my lyrics, I found myself here. Everything I post are lyrics of mine that either I haven't used, are planning to use, and at some point some that I've used in my music.

I am not lost only unaware...

Raven Hair

A vampire with raven hair
Weakness like any other
Awake like any other
We know, we know her name

Her skin so flawless
And mine a mirror of life
Both holding a tired gaze
No rest even in a dream

Powers from the ancient world
