Goodbye Junky; Hello Sobriety

goodbye i'd rather die stay away from me from my abandoned arm
it's taken way too long to say so long i finally know this is wrong in my arm you don't belong
you wher my friend for years drying all my tears numbing my fears
this will be harder to turn away but i'm sorry i'm searching for better days
you cannot live here anymore for there is somerthing else i adore
never leaving me wasted on the dirty floors you've done nothing but complicate me
finding the sinner withen mechewing me up spitting me out leaving me exposed and in doubt
i tried to hide you but you were on my sleeves more and more
the days got so hot i just forgot to cover you up
people could tell how much you really loved m,y by the tracks on my arms
they could tell how much you made me feed youby the bruises counting the number of uses
i was driven by your emptiness your nimbness i was raped by your security
now i'm driven by someone elses this is no gamecall it lame you make me ashamed
ashamed to know i trusted you all i wanted to do was die with you
i just want to try a new and see what's it's like sober
we can no longer sleep together no matter the beautiful sunny weather
i am gonna start over and learn how to grow older so goodbye to you please stay away
forgat my name forget your game having something else beside me 
for my sobriety will never lie to me never hurt me never desert me 
your every promise empty you've taken all my money it's no longer funny saying it's better
than sweet sweet honey 
i get so sick after your every prick you're never enough making my life extra hard
only satisfied for a few then back out searching for you only i can let you in
somehow you always seem to win all the dreams i had were taken away
it seems in just a blink of an eye then you find me and i'm all scattered and torn
feeling so good after trudging through the hood i sit with your company and drift off
addicted to the unknown that has always been shown now i'm flushing you out
i'm brushing you off it's my time to shine thanks for the memories i'll bury them with you
don't you get it you're all alone you creep around like a stalker i'm prepared for you
hear my words get go be gone now i'm strong and you're dead wrong 
someday i'll shine and sobriety will be mine

Heavy Heart

my soul will burn
my heart will break
so insecure
always unsure
hurting you
hurting me
pull you close
push you far
this is not a game
feeling so much shame
saying hi today
goodbye tomorrow
i'm like magic
now you see me
now you don't
i am your ecstacy
i am your disease
i'll eat you once
then i'm full
you still want more
making your whole body shake
just to see how much you can take
i make you squirt devouring you like my favorite dessert
leaving you awed
feeling like fraud
i cannot give you love
i am broken
that is unspoken
you will never get me
so try and forget me

Kick Rocks

The pain never fading, even after time
knowing that this is all mine
everyone telling me I'd be fine
the emotional scars are gone with a flash
dashing out the door craving more
going for another ride having no pride
I take another blast pushing it all back
I put it down, I pick it up 
it's getting me, it's taking over
inhaling before exhaling I just can't be satisfied
each hit making me crave another
a deeper harder hit
my eyes wide open, my hands shaking while I'm sitting
scraping for more
the flame slowly dying as I get down to the last of my sanity
knowing in a few it will be insanity
the only annoyance is the clicking of the lighter
frantically crawling on the floor
hoping to find a little more
looking for someone who is cooking
cooking up my sanity
I pack it down
I push it tight
I savor my hit with all my might
coming down soon what an awful sight
at this moment I feel free and unbound
I can't see I can't feel the ground I am numb
I exhale looking pale
now feeling empty I have the urge to hit it again
do I live it or leave it, now I feel the seperation axiety inside of me

Cleansing the Soul

I lye here on the cement floor, looking up into the sky, it's dark and cloudy not letting one 
single ray shine by
I go deep inside of my twisted mind, and wonder why everything has to eventually die
to eventually dissapear from its existance, all the existing things suddenly dissapear
and never know you once existed, you are now completley gone- or are you
will I come back as another being, another soul
will I someday be that dejavu
I wish I could just release my whole inner being at this very moment and fly
into the sky- becoming one with it
another cloud- maybe being the warm wind upon someones skin other than mine
maybe a rain drop falling high from the sky, and suddenly splattering to the ground
dissapearing into another existance- the underworld
why do these things, these thoughts race through me
taking over my attention, not being able to focus on anything at all
not ever what is right infront of me, why do I complicate everthing more
than it already is
is it complicated or just me challenging myself
to much time, not enough space
I'm searching for the sun, the light on my face, for the warmth in my heart
I am cold right now, I feel like ice
my circulation shutting off from my hole being
wanting help so desperatly from these thoughts
but when it comes I run fast i run far
I am weak if I take your hand, don't you understand
I am weak if you see me cry or was that just another learnd lie
stand up child you're to wild
don't you grab that helpfull hand 
I can hear the demand

Keep Walking

Everyone always goes in the end, I stretch my arms out but they
never turn around
never saying anything but goodbye
watching them from behind as they leave
still feeling them all around
they have some how bound me to them
to care to cry to hold onto what
to nothing just a thought, a reminder of all the hurt
please take it all away when you go
your voice your memory expecially your face
all the time you spent in my place, my space, in my heart
in my arms, in my bed
all I remember is you and how you made it so easy as if I wasn't alive
I gave you my hand and now you demand to take a stand
and walk without a soothing talk
just stay, stay away no more hitting and spititng
spitting your hastey words
you limited to me to your issolations seing nothing but your back
so don't you ever come back or my heart will have a sudden attack
your so outspoken with your insults lodging tears in my throat
never wiping them away just standing there watching my vision become blurry
then you leave in a hurry
I'm amuned to you, your damage has beaten my soul
so please keep walking, I'm through talking
I feel the weight is gone
and with any hope soon I will breath

Desperate Junky

wide awake my stomach aches-thinking again will this ever end

wishing to be i  the druggy hallways-to drown my cries

not caring i almost died-so wrong and not right

my thoughts their hard to fight-still wide awake

getting harder and harder to take

saying to myself just one more blast before i put it all in the past

wishing the high would forever last 

i thought i could take this but i cannot shake it

runnimg around in circles looking for light

at the moment my future's not looking so bright

lie me on the groun i feel as if i'm going to drown

my air is gone it's hard to breath

please shine down on me and set me free

all i see is a dirty needle creeping closer and closer

wanting me until the end calling meit's only true friend

cannot take anymore i want to scream

stay the hell outta my god damn dreams

for dreams do come true i've finally said we are through

i wake up swetty and shaky my head is pounding

all i want is to combust into a million lieces

why does that blast have to mentally last
  
forever i will want it forever i will long and forever i  will fight with all my might

to maybe live another sober day

Patience

I sit unaware in silence completley bare without an ounce of care
waiting for peace impatiently
the peace never comes
I sit there drenched in pain and dissapointment
how long must I wait I'm becoming irrate
betrayed since birth, no self worth
I sit feeling no joy
I tremble and cower in complete distrust, still waiting for my peice
wanting to scream, is this life or just a dream
not varing for once whos ear it hurts
my cries always unanswered leaving me mute no longer any words
I carry them on my face place to place
feeling like such a discrace
always shamed always shunned that is where the guilt begun
I stuff it deeper and deeper
making me uglier as it creeps up begining to kill me
silent rage feeling as if I'm locked in a cage
my soul is confussed and wanting to use
my hate hides my hope and steals my truth
I sit here and wait silently and patiently
all alone

Recovery Floors

i sit as this desk and things dont seem like such a mess
i loosen some chains for personal gains
trying to see things so i can free my soul
trying to stay strong for i know this is where i belong
knocking on my burden doors
walking on these recovery floors
i sit with an open mind hoping that its myself i find
i finally had enough this life has been too rough
for so long no one could see the help that i would desperatly need
i would feed off the hunger for the need to feel free
i cant ever change who i was i can only change who i am
ive opened a new gate with fate 
i go to meetings received with pleasant greetings
who am i now not my yesturday and today thats ok

Hopless Cage

Feeling as if I don't have a partner
feeling all alone
I feel like my only friend is me
I can't beleive there is nobody out there
I dought them all, I am my own prisoner
never getting out always stuck in this dark cage
the cage rattles and shakes but never does it release me
I keep searching, I keep tyring to get out but I am tired
I'm never coming back once I break free
I know this
I want to be with someone I can get to know
knowing is beleiving, beleiving is a chance
a chance is a risk, a risk of leaving them
another heartbreak, a heartbreak another darkness I can not take
no partner
just me and my lonliness

Sinners

My body trembles
my mind rattles
my chest burns
my stomach turns
my dreams haunt me
and my emotions taunt me
let it go and burry it deep
before I end up back on the streets
trying not to yearn to get high
trying to think of new ways to get bye
the demons I swollowed as a child
drive me wild
It's just a game
they should feel ashamed
who will win?
The nightmares I hold from there sins
or me, to have the strength to release them
from so far within
