Understanding

This house is driving me crazy...
This house is tearing me apart...
Without my words I'm nothing...
like I'm in a sea of sharks...
No one understands me...
No one knows what's running through my mind...
In a corner of darkness, that's where I stay all the time...
I bury my tears, worries and fears in a draw beneath the floorboards in my room...
I clean up all my hopes and dreams with an old mop and a broom...
And now you know my story and how everyone ignored me...
My words are real concise...
and that's how I'm saying goodnight to a past I once knew...
Haven't you got a clue...
of the truth and understanding that I've been through?...

Behind the Darkness of My Eyelids

Behind the darkness of my eyelids hum... 
What can I say about that...
Every person has another side to them...
They may not show it, but it's there...
Sometimes people bring it out...
Some people keep it in...
But we can't hide what we feel...
Sometimes...
Sometimes we imagine what we want to do, 
instead of just doing it, and that's what holds us back,
and that's why we stay...
Behind the darkness of our eyelids...

Poison

You think we don't see it...
Behind your fakeness and lies...
You hurt our feelings and bring tears to our eyes...
You kill our great hopes and have them crashing to the ground...
With a smile on your face, that never makes a sound...
We eat the crap you give us and worship the ground you walk on...
But you don't fool me, I know what you're really about...
But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt...
And let you chose what's right because your nothing but P.O.I.S.O.N...
Poison..
And that's coming straight out of my mouth...

Apologies

I want to apologize to my life, my world, my everything...
My family, and friends...
All the hatred, and discomfort i put in them...
All the lies i have told...
All the stuff i have stole...
If it wasn't for me...
I would have never found the key...
To the diary within my soul...
And the berdends which i wove...
In a quilt that tells my story...
All i want to give is apologies to you all...
I apologize for everything i've done, and the better person in me has finally won...
