An expression of distaste
Crosses her face

A nihilist dream
Or so it seems

The potions and pills of Saturday night
Haunted her through her parents empty fight

The rush of silver
Sanity to pilfer

Cherry red juice down her palm
All she heard the next morning where The empty words of a psalm

The Priest has abandoned her soul
She doesn't care; God is merely a black Hole

School could never understand
For the meaning in her eyes is banned

Her friends gather round after class
The Strays are gathered here at last

Alone until lonely together
A misfit group strong as a feather

A fantasy dream to fly
Until one by one they're allowed to die

She strives for an unearthly perfection
And unhealthy addict for correction

A complexion so sweet
A silent heart beat

And her coffin lowered into the ground
The princess of The Strays she was Eternally crowned
