Can You Hear Me God

Sometimes I question my own faith and wonder if you are real,
can you really feel all the pain I feel.
I wonder, Can you hear me god?

Sometimes I cry myself to sleep,
do you know the reasons why I weep.
I wonder, Can you hear me God?

Sometimes I give up on myself,
is it because you forgot about me and chose to let me deal with myself.
I wonder, Can you hear me God?

Sometimes people hurt me , and sometimes I hurt others,
but it seems you let them be and it's my life you choose to bother.
I wonder, Can you hear me God?

Sometimes i feel like I'm your mistake,
is it because you judge me for all the mistakes that I make.
I wonder, Can you hear me God?

Sometimes I hate others and sometimes others hate me,
but it seems you don't see others,
and it's my life with troubles you smother.
I wonder, Can you hear me God?

Sometimes I hate you for taking my mother,
Sometimes I hate you even more for portraying my father.
I wonder, Can you hear me God?

Sometimes I think of my past,
and that's when I reliaze that nomatter what I'm feeling now,
it will never compare to the pain I was feeling back then.
It's times like this that I realize that's when you truelly chose to be my father,
to scold me, but hold me, to teach me but reach me.
To show me that my pain won't always last.

I believe this is true, at least that's the picture you drew,
yet I still wondwer, Can you hear me God?

Addiction

Addiction is a disease,
and for destructive emotions, it's a release.

Addiction is nothing new,
but the pain it creates, nomatter how we deny it, will always be true.

Addiction is like medication,
and if you cling on to it will eventually become your only dedication.

Addiction creates lies,
addiction is what we develop when we want people to hear our cries.

Addiction is what we use as an excuse,
it's the reason why we always point the finger and accuse.

Addiction is real,
it is the reason why we try to block what we really feel.

Addiction lures us in,
Addiction in all ways, will always be our sin.

Addiction lives in me,
but it's up to me to open my eyes and see.

Addiction lives in you,
don't let you having nothing left be your only cue.

Addiction is your pain,
don't let it make you go insane.

Addiction is the devil,
and if you don't stop it now, against your own life,
you will be a rebel.

Hopeless

Hopeless, but devoted,
Hopeless, but in love,
Hopeless, untill the day i shout enough.
Hopeless, but i care,
Hopeless, it seems you're never there.
Hopeless, i won't leave,
Hopeless, love me please.
Hopeless, you're my all,
Hopeless, can't you hear my call,
Hopeless, everytime you let me fall.
Hopeless, when you lie,
Hopeless, can't you see me cry.
Hopeless, when i try,
Hopeless, you make me want to die.
Hopeless, feel my pain,
Hopeless, I'm about to go insane.
Hopeless, to hurt you,
Hopeless, I'll hurt me.
Hopeless, can't  you see,
Hopeless, god please set me free.
Hopeless, you don't care,
Hopeless, it's just not fair.
Hopeless, but devoted,
Hopeless, but in love,
Hopeless, untill the day I shout enough.

Who Are You

I see you around all the time,
you act like caring about others is a crime.
you pretend like you are incapable of feeling,
I want to know what hidden truths you are sealing.

You go around screaming at others,
your jealous when others speak obout their mothers.
what's even worse is that you blame men,
but how many have you slept with? how do you hate men?

I try to get to know you,
but I can't even really understand you.
I try to feel compassion,
because when you don't even know it,
i'll see that side that's hurting repeatedly flashing.

Sometimes at night I'll hear you crying,
you'll say that you're o.k,
but I know that you are lying.
sometimes I hear you praying,
you might not really believe it,
but I feel what you are saying.

I know your insecure, no matter how you hide it,
I know your past still hunts you, no matter how you fight it.

Now I have to ask myself why are you the only one I see,
the truth is I know why you won't let me be,
I know why you're around me,
for everytime I look in the mirror 
I see that you are me.

I Wish

I wish life wasn't so complicated,
I wish my mother chose me over being intoxicated.
I wish i could change my past,
I wish I could erase my memories so the pain won't always last.
I wish I could forgive my sister,
I wish she would have protected me instead of enjoying it when that man kissed 
her.
I wish I knew my father,
I wish they never told me that he thinks i'm nothing but a bother.
I wish I could repaint my life,
I wish that at the age of ten I didn't try to use that knife.
I wish I never loved that man,
I wish he didn't hit me to prove that he was my man.
I wish I could meet the right one,
I wish I never aborted, what could have been my daughter or son.
I wish I could make people understand,
I wish I never  did the things to hear the word remand.
I wish I wasn't so afraid of myself,
I wish I was strong enough to deal with myself,
and know that i'm not by myself.
I wish I knew me,
I wish without a word or explanation, all my pain, anger and grief, you could see.
