 Leela by Venus (written as lyrics)

Leela, its been roaring and raining again lately.    

Everytime I get depressed, raindrops start to fall

Lightening strikes and the wind begins to howl.       

I am extremely volatile now, Leela

Are you listening to me?

I can't take the pain of dark memories anymore

It's been haunting me

And leaving my mind, body and soul sore.              

I am having extreme difficulty in sleeping again - Leela

Been looking for some outlet for my sensations.

Cause I want to stay same.

But haven't been getting any help,

Any peace of mind , even through medication.        

The same old sleeping tablets and anti depressants

I realise that maybe

All I need right now is a freind like you, Leela.

To heal the hurt.

To clean the dirt.

To drive away the pervert from my mind.    

Unhappiness: trying to chase away the nightmares

The looming shadow of fears

My unending stream of tears.             

I hear screeching and crackling again now, Leela

It's funny how the outside atmosphere resembles my own

The violence, the madness and the pessimism shows.   

Now the sun has set, leaving me to deal with my darkness alone.

Until the next morning, when I hear the ringing of the phone,

And your voice freezes all my demons of fear into stone.
