Rage

You know I try to visualize
Things I love
People I despise

But nothing compares
To the pictures I see
I feel this despair
I hate this family

From the point of no return
I set the house of fire
I want to see it burn
It is my lone desire

Satisfactory is a word
But a word I’ll never use
This feeling is absurd
Why do I feel abused

The paint turns grey
And the wood a black
What could I possibly say
To make time go back

Flames engulf my heart
It is this rage I feel
These tears run like fire
Its burning is so real

I fear this need
A broken heart compels
This is my plea
Please oh god listen well

Tell her I am sorry
For I treated her wrong
Up in the sky so starry
Please hope hear my song!

My breathing is at a halt
The smoke fills my lungs
Memories flash, it is my fault
Never will I see the sun
