Dont Think It Has One

i can feel you
dirtting my soul
fingers drawen across me
im screaming in pain
how come no one hears me
closing my eyes
the tears come pouring out
and all i can do if freaking scream
you will never know what it is like to be me
every day is so exusting
drowing in my own filth
some how grown accustom
 look 
at this disaster
a painted picture of me
lacking all emotion
i strugle to be
and fall to my knees
 
nothing can fix me
dont want your pitty
slashing away 
at my own skin
to carve out a place
some thing i am proud of
realizing to late
thers is beauty 
in destruction

Old

The day is sad
swallowed up in tears
Can't see any good faces
they all look the same
Running throuhg the clouds
trip and fall on my face
even thunder jumps
at the boom of my pain
All the stupied people I see
make the snow melt
I am just a snowflake
in a world of people I see

Just Saying

knuckles crack 
an tear the skin
anger builds
deep within
sadness bellows
i can not win
teeth grind
annoyances rises
prayers fail
now what do i do
head is racing 
and i feel numb
payed to feel this way yet again
i know the sun will bring sorrow
so i cover my face 
and try to drift away
but there is no free rides
every ones got a life to live
damned if you do
so i wont
found out all that has life
will one day forfeit it
for something even better
maybe another life
think i would kill myself
if i had to do it all over again
so i just drift on peacefully
with my thumb out trying to caught the next buzz
hopefully i will stay numb

Fix

I am broken
And have no one
To help fix me
So I sit at home
Soldering, tinkering
Trying like hell
To drain my body
Of all this bad blood
And replace my heart
With machine parts
Engineering out
These feelings
Become inorganic
And free
Lost the blueprints
Along the way
This path I've taken
Not by choice
Yet here all the same
A trail staind with blood
And tears
Trying all the old maintenance
To fix my problems
Ending up just as broke down
As I was before
It's time to trade in
This broken model
For something shiny and new
So Someone please tell me How?
I am infested
With rot and decay

Dad

I hate you!
cant you see...
that I love you.
How can this be?
All I wanted
I've been denied.
Can not stand you!
Have to force you out.
Dont talk to me.
Nothing to talk about.
You dont listen,
all my life
all I've wanted
was to have a friend
in you.
But your to screwed up
I can not relate.
Now I sit in frustration
alone in my room.
It's ok though,
just another day with you.

Now

where am i going?
where have i been?
empty handed
i fall to my knees
what has this all been for?
will i ever find a dream to chase?
balled fists
i slam anger against  the wall
what is wrong with me?
why does this happen to me?
lost i stumble
crying all the way
is there no one for me?
do my sin's out way my right to happyness?
laughing it all off
to hide the tears rolling down to the ground
i am damned to this way of life
i cry out for your touch
look away and bury my face in the lap of sadness
you did not hear my call
or did you ignore it?
do i want to know the answer?
will not let go
maybe you will remember 
and embrace me?
is this it?
i think i hear death calling me
im afraid now
so afraid that i will 
head his call

Sadness

cant get you out of my head
no one in particular , 
just the idea of you
some one who truly loves me
and that will hold the key to my heart
but i sit alone
unable to bring my self
to find the words to connect
so now i sit in my room
and please myself
with nothing to comfort me
except self loathing
why do i have to be this way?
why do i have to be me?
for so long i have found ways to escape
and it is all caught up to me
these fantasy's now looking bleak
and without meaning
so sad this life im leading
plow through the day
only looking forward to dreaming
please dont shed a tear for me
not asking for your symphony
guess i just had to get it off my chest
so why is it
that i wake up everyday
inside screaming
telling myself to get away...
abandoned all that makes me me
i find it kinda funny
that all i want is to sleep 
but my mind wont let it be
so hour after hour
i lay unsatisfied
begging and praying
for a little relief
a f*****g off switch
lived so long
with this internal bleeding
from scars left long ago...
i really dont know what else to say
so smile and look up to the clouds
embrace the sunshine and enjoy your day
because you may not wake up next time
this is your better day.

None

Frantically I'm scratching, clawing
Trying to make my way back to the top
Ripping, tearing
My finger nails are coming apart
The deeper I fall 
I withdraw inside of me 
Why can't I let this go
why can't I let this be
Why does it have to be this way
Why does it always keep happening to me

Light

this glimer of light

appered right befor my eyes

so warm and relaxing

i reached up and grasped

and held it in my hand

closing my eyes

i wished it would stay forever

but i wished to hard

and held to tight

now im cold

with out a light

Why do I want so much sadness in my life
I can feel my heart breaking
Why do I keep doing this to myself
My psychiy is about to snap
I don't know how much of this I can take
I feel my heart breaking
Surround, I'm drowning 
My own tears make up this lake
Inside I hurt
Alone I rot
I must tare at this skin
To provoke feeling
I should stop and give up
But I continue being
I'm snapping
I'm dying
I'm laughing
I'm crying
Left wondering
When
Theses symptoms will shake
If I can't stop this fall
I'm liable to break
And fly away
Theses prices of me
Incomplete and broken
I get thrown away
No one to belong too
No meaning to stay
I cant scrape this
From my mind 
The people i Iove
What I've left behind
It's getting dark here
And too hard to breathe
I'll bow my head now
And take my leave
