Water drips from the silver messenger above my head.1
"Well they're never gonna get me... like a bullet through a flock of doves." I always told myself they'd never get me. I told them all I didn't care, but i was just as bruised and battered as the other lost souls. The drums carry on, the guitar blends, but the voice speaks to me...2
\Life\ is a prison. It's a dream "for the dead"... and for the living, its nightmare that we just can't jerk ourselves out of.3
I'm not ok. I lie to myself and everyone else on a daily basis. Smiling, strategically placing my jagged fingers over the freshest cuts. I'm suprised they don't see through me... I'm not O-fucking-kay.4
"Ever get the feeling that you're never all alone?" I've never been without someone. I've truly always been surrounded by love... but I lock myself away from the world, inside this caged willow of a mind. Red shades fade back to brown and my smile slithers down my face.5
The Hotel Bella Muerte welcomes me with open arms. Friend close the door in my face, and it's the hardest part of living. They pull the plug... only after they learn my name. They'd slit my throat in a heartbeat... or lack thereof.6
-pause for breath-7
A tear falls from a withered angel's eye. She turns to a man with one lonely wing. She gives him all her poison, pills, and hopeless hearts and makes him ill... "fire at will," he'd said... She didn't hesitate until he started to tumble. She licks her lips and whistles a tune, broken by a frustrated scream.8
All that's left to do now is put on that dress her husband would hate if only she had one. Breasts exposed by the mosoleum door, a friend lay dead on the bathroom floor... and she can only blame herself.9

I think beautiful really is the word for this. It's sad and tragic and absolutely GOREgeous.

okay?! now i have a very tainted image of steven in my mind... i'm not sure if beautiful is the right word to describe this, but there it is...

nice, steven would cum in his pants for joy if he saw this. Very well done combining my chemical romance with prose. LIke tinuviel said, good jobbing on using the songs in order. Have fun in life.

sah-weet! Though I didn't catch the MCR thing...it may have made the poem even cooler that way.
