Bottled Up Inside

as the days go by the racing thoughts wont stop
it comes to the point where i can feel my heart drop
past memories tearing me apart
who knows if i will ever have a fresh start
something has died inside of me and its probably my heart
i grow colder and colder thinking wen will this all stop
flashbacks and im stuck in thought
who would of even known i would fall apart
i can hear the screams echoing in my mind
pain in my stomache and the thoughts of him inside me arent so kind
put the gun to my head and they have taken all i got
why god why me whhy wont this stop
i guess i made this life who knowws what will be next
im sick of the ex n the perverted men offering money for sex
how could i ever respect?
wishful men walking in the door hoping for a score
but when they cross my path i give them my all leaving myself feeling like a foolish 
whore
in my mind i think ive won \
taking everything, even there funds
i sold my soul to the devil
and im trying to buy it back
believe me when i say i been to hell and back...

The Lonely Man the Lonely Women

He enters the room
we all start to stare
Bunch of women living life in such despair...

We all swarm like voulchers
Until he finally takes a seat 
Seeing his pockets full puts us all in heat
As I approach him I finally sit in the winning seat...

I tell him lies and everything he wants to hear,
Poor him, thinking I'm so dear....
Come a little closer, now I got him in my grasp,
Telling me Im beautiful only makes me want to laugh...

As I dance for him inside im crying
I can only look at him and imagine him dying,
Now were done we go our separate ways,
Dont touch or look at me, its better off this way...

Go home to your wife while she sites at home and cries
You and I both live a life full of lies......
