Dollface

I was reminded of Johnny Cash's starkly beautiful song 'Hurt' today and it just had to be Limewired.

In an empty room, even if only for a few minutes with Poppy's doll sitting on the armchair, I remembered just how spooky dolls are to a boy like me..


I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here


What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

Johnny Cash.
