Hopefull Misery

Touch me kiss me,make me feel wanted.
tell me I'm special,that I'm important.
Please for once pretend that your listening
Feed me a dream,what's wrong with wishing,
Hold me while I hit rock bottom,
your need is a mystery I can't solve,
I just want you to myself
pretend that there is no one else
no other person,no other place
just our hearts and empty space

Untitled

Her eyes are like oceans of unknown depth
for every word her eyes won't say
Her smile can say the rest

All Out of Excuses

Won't you untie me,my arms are aching,
your shelter is failing,chisel in my heart of stone

I won't be here tomorrow,there's no lies left to borrow
leave me empty and hollow,..let me grow

Won't you untie me , stop trying to fight me,
your promise is binding,chisel in my heart of stone

I won't be here tomorrow,no lies left to borrow,
leave me empty and hollow, let me grow

My Hole My Home

Here I am your fool again
waiting for your misdirection
I've fallen out of place again
won't you help me
find my home

Won't you help me...find my home
I just want to be all by myself
I just want to be..all..by...myself
I just want to be..alone
NOT care about no body else

I'm strung by out in space again
alone in this void..I call home

Won't you help me..find my home
I just want to be..all.by..myself
I just want to be ..alone
NOT care about..no...body else

Against It All

The days are long gone
Nights consumed with the
Intoxication of laughter
They were the best
Young and restless
Waiting for the next best thing
Letting life expose itself
Setting our own 
Standards and expectations
Responsibility was a rumor
Myths and fiction
We never paid attention
Those memories seem so distant
I hold them close as a reminder
I am not alone
Somewhere out there
You have not forgotten
Our youthful hubris
All the good fights we fought
Young and lost
Against it all

She Waits

I hear a voice 
calling me off in the distance
my thoughts become
Distorted the more that I listen
she persuades me to leave
all hope of stability
to join her on the flipside
where nothing ever goes right

Just Another Shoulder

She comes from the grave to pay me a visit
she's lonely and just needs someone to listen
I'm her ear to peace 
Her words for hope
The ladder she climbs
when she's in a hole
I've tried so hard to give her loving
I'm her everything 
and still I am nothing

To Sick To Forget

You make me sad,I sit and laugh to myself
am I really going mad..
you make me smile,forget about the past
for just a little while..
you don't love me ..anymore than I want you to
so tell me why..should I be afraid

I'm sick,I'll live
I'm addicted to the nausea
 
You..get me high..lack of oxygen
I can't catch my breath,alternatives are not allowed
you..watch me bleed..just so you don't feel left out
never tell what it's all about,
you..don't love me..anymore than I want you to
so tell me why..should I even care

I'm sick,I'll live
I'm addicted to the nausea
