A GOODNIGHT STOKER Story

This song was originally written for the album but I never quite finished it in time so I had to hold it back. With the album out I finally managed to get it together and really wanted to push it out to finally finish the STOKER story. thank u :))

lyrics:
Better wake up now
And spit on all the riches
Rain come down when I shoot the witness
Hang me high without a question
I don't wanna be a victim to religion

I think we've seen too much 
And when we talk it's like another loss
So dark and it's hard to find you 
We can't seem to find a way through 
And I wish that it was different 
Lies don't know how to spin them 
Loud it's so loud
I'm breaking down
You'll come around 

Caught up in your web spinning 
I don't wanna get it 
Cursed with the gift of sight 
Don't wanna hear it 
Children are wicked 
And the sky got no stars 
When the lights go out 
I'm gonna tear you apart 
So you
 
Better wake up now
And spit on all the riches
Rain come down when I shoot the witness
Hang me high without a question
I don't wanna be a victim to religion

Don't wanna be another victim to religion 
We've held too many hands to just listen 
I don't wanna see I don't wanna speak 
I don't wanna see not even a peak 

Take my body take my bones 
Take the blood out of my nose 
Take my soul and everything that is crumbling 
Yeah
I keep asking what you know but it's clear that you don't 
I've got concussions from fumbling 
Oh my god what's wrong with me 
Yeah I asked for this but I can't be seen 
With this dry mouth red eyed silicon face 
And this new devil singing in my ear 
There's no space for me to breathe me to grieve 
Wanna bleed on this track 
Take my eyes I'll be fine 
Please just never give 'em back

Children are wicked and the sky got no stars 
When the lights go out I'm gonna tear you apart 
So you

Better wake up now
And spit on all the riches
Rain come down when I shoot the witness
Hang me high without a question
I don't wanna be a victim to religion
Better wake up now
And spit on all the riches
Rain come down when I shoot the witness
Hang me high without a question
I don't wanna be a victim to religion

Don't wanna be another victim to religion 
We've held too many hands to just listen 
I don't wanna see I don't wanna speak 
I don't wanna see not even a peak 
Caught up in your web spinning 
I don't wanna get it 
Cursed with the gift of sight 
Don't wanna hear it 
Children are wicked 
And the sky got no stars 
When the lights go out 
I'm gonna tear you apart 
So you

Better wake up now
And spit on all the riches
Rain come down when I shoot the witness
Hang me high without a question
I don't wanna be a victim to religion
Better wake up now
And spit on all the riches
Rain come down when I shoot the witness
Hang me high without a question
(Victim)
I don't wanna be a victim to religion
(To you)

Ay 
Be your victim 
(To you)
Ugh Ugh 

Take my body take my bones 
Take the blood out of my nose 
Take my soul and everything that is crumbling 
Yeah
I keep asking what you know but it's clear that you don't 
I've got concussions from fumbling

LYRICS:
In the quiet hush, TJ Maxx at night
In a sea of luggage, saw a curious sight
Taylor sits on bags, piled high
Guitar in hand beneath retail sky

Silent shelves, empty cashier tills
Melodies soar, inspiration spills
Lyrics crafted in the calm of store
Her heart so pure
New beats to explore

Discount tags
And leather cases

Echoes of tunes
Finding their spaces

Imagination thrives
In a secret scene

Taylor pens songs
In a store serene

TJ Maxx
With Taylor Swift
These luggage tags
Where she goin' next?

She paused her song
And looked at me
Like Juliet
In that 'Love Story'

The words she said
They had to be
"You're my Romeo, My T. Kelce"

Unseen by all, this sweet genius girl
Creating magic luggage
Writing songs like pearls

Taylor looked away
In a world of her own
Crafting melodies
Where dreams are sewn

TJ Maxx
With Taylor Swift
These luggage tags
Where she goin' next?

She played her song
Looking straight at me
I'm Romeo
TJ's 'Love Story'

The words she said
They just had to be
"You're my Romeo, My T. Kelce"

With courage ablaze
I approached her side

Sharing my wish
A request with pride

Taylor include in your chorus line
"TJ's Love. Let its brilliance shine."

She paused, her eyes sparkling bright
A smile forming, a spark of delight
Said in my chorus
Those words shall play
A nod to this night
In its own special way

Grateful to her
Offered space to create
In the store's quietude
Her art permeates

Taylor smiled
Her heart in song
Left her to linger 
Where TJ's love belongs

The Darkness Act I

Lyrics:

Verse
Another blind soul asking for direction
This dead end street
It's paved with good intentions
It's not too late to change your course of action
Better do it soon
'Cause you're headin' for a crashin'
I can't be the one to save you

Chorus
I ain't here to do favors

Verse 2
When you look in the mirror
What do you see?
Do you see a hero? Or do you see a freak?
Well
I don't have time to make you understand
Go ahead and cry
Child
It's not my problem
No one gives a damn if you cry

Chorus
I ain't here to do favors
I ain't here to do favors
I ain't here to do favors
I ain't here to do favors

Bridge
No one gives a damn if you cry
I can't be the one to save you

Chorus
I ain't here to do favors
I ain't here to do favors
I ain't here to do favors
I ain't here to do favors
