Something Is Missing

I heard the ISIS people chop up heads… Blood spills…pills kill the thrill… Into myself again The light will shine while the night will never be…truly…mine… I wish I knew what it was like to have hope… I mope, I mope, I mope… Something is missing Pieces of me break Hit the brake… Turn the other direction You tore me up inside Insiders getting thrown about I doubt…doubt… Don’t hand me a rope… Instead of hurting me, you should see… You should see… The pornographic images you revealed to me… They stick to me… Sickened… Something is missing Pieces of me break Hit the brake… Turn the other direction You tore me up inside Insiders getting thrown about I doubt…doubt… Blistered by blasphemed…hopelessness… Regret piles up like debt Bittersweet are your words…they release like pigeons… Out of their cage… GET ME OUT OF YOUR RIBCAGE Voices haunt my mind… Left behind . . . Something is missing Pieces of me break Hit the brake… Turn the other direction You tore me up inside Insiders getting thrown about I doubt…doubt… Vertical and horizontal distress…strike me… Lightning tears… Childish cheers… Something is missing Pieces of me break Hit the brake… Turn the other direction You tore me up inside Insiders getting thrown about I doubt…doubt… Soundless remarks you throw back and forth to me… Anger rips my hopes into shreds…shreds… Flowers and towers grow and glow Sinking below the surface… You belong in my shoes You belong in my shoes You belong in His shoes Borrow His eyes His blue and green and white eyes Something is missing Pieces of me break Hit the brake… Turn the other direction You tore me up inside Insiders getting thrown about I doubt…doubt… But, God knows He shows His route To I? To I?
