The Electric Snow Dream: Alive In...
I. ODEATH
beneath the pandemonium twilight
lay pink poison thoughts
with the hashtag #odeath
this is our penultimate raindance
the next will not be for ceremony

The Electric Snow Dream: Death In Carthage
I.
When I am laid in earth
no trouble in thy breast
remember me
II.
I married a military man
And I am certain
of the wicked well he drinks
Of all the things that I could notβve known
it is this love most unsuspected
And now into itβs mirrored depths I fall
escape is singed by sunlight burned
and banished from my mind
III.
Your hand Belinda for darkness shades me
on your shoulder let me rest
More I would but death invades me
the darker part of darkness waits
All my memories they have been pillaged
with your arms steady my gate
To the cliffs I return to drown his visage
within darkness there is darker
darkness waiting still
IV.
I see you in every rose bud
I see you in every cerulean swell
I hear you in every wandererβs song
I feel you in each and every battered breath
Remember me
when I am laid
in earth
V.
Outside these walls the ships keep coming
filled with the ghosts of my dead wishes
And like a child beast of Hades
I am lost in these hysterics
Remember me my sailor when your darkness comes
aside the river Lethe I shall be waiting
Remember me dear Belinda
now walk me to the door.
VI.
Welcome dear sailor to Hades
it is here I have been waiting
Like a photograph, like a silent storm,
like a dried up rose.
This night my pain
shall not be wasted!
The time has come
my violent heart is chastened
undress, it is our reckoning.
VII.
When I am laid in earth
may my wrongs create no trouble
no trouble in thy breast
Remember me but, ah
forget my fate
