Platonic Soulmates

She was my soulmate, and i her writer
Soft as honey, she was the glue that kept us together.
Despite how much we tried to escape our vice,
We continued gliding on that thin, blue ice.
But thankfully for us, we were soft as a feather,
And that sweet honey, she kept us together. 

For no matter how far we strayed
We knew one thing would always remain.
For like kindred hearts
And birds of a feather
As soulmates, we were meant to be together.

Selfish Left Behind

Frantic searches ad 911 calls
Turns into freezer meals and banquet halls
But how selfish is it of us to feast and fill our plate
All because a man chose his own fate.

But who am i to speak
On and on about hypocrisy
For as we question him and his fate,
Mine only stands and waits.

"I was depressed once" is a reoccurring theme.
"Weak and silent", "stayed to himself"
Don't you people realize that's a cry for help?

There a girl in the corner who doesn't speak
And a boy on the bench who no longer eats
But you don't realize the face of the dead
For you're too stuck within your own head.

Monsters In Our Veins

Face to face with all of my disgrace

Don't know where to run 
Don't know where it's coming from.

Gonna hid by you
Gonna hide the truth.

Don't know where to run 
Don't know where it's coming from

This has gone way too far
But i came unarmed.

Can't hide by you,
Got to face my truth
Make it my roots.

No matter where you run
We all know where it's coming from

It comes from inside
That we cannot deny

The monsters in our veins
Are surely to blame

No matter where we run
They know we'll tear
Straight into their snare
With no avail.

The screams we share
May not escape
For it is our fate.

Gonna cry out to you
Make you my truth.
