[x]

Never EnoughThe silence is slowly ringing louder
And I've never felt so alone.
If we had time,
Maybe I could say what's on my mind…

The darkness inside
Is darker than black
And the anger I say
Is always pure rage.
The feelings I seem
Are surely more mean…

What I say seems to be never enough
To understand the emotions
Flowing through me.
Through my veins, through my blood,
Through my past, and through my love.
Love is never enough.

SorrowI'm running out of hope for now,
Breaking through all we've known.
Boarded windows hide the past
And bandages don't seem to last.

One day, we can leave
But we'll just wait and see.
All those times we've felt nothing,
Now have ripped the seams.

We've faded away into the air.
Two lifeless souls and none to care.
I feel invisible in my own world
My head created to crumble.

InpatientThe best way out
Is to lie your way out.
Take the depression
And tone it down…

These thoughts will never leave me
And I'll never go back home
[Trapped away again, from that awful slice of Hell]
The darkness always surrounds me
So I lay awake in this old hole
[That I can't dig myself out of]

The stars are falling faster
To the ground with a raging fire
My heart becomes the night
So the black is ever-consuming

The trees then shrivel to brown
Birds fall dead from the sky
Street lights begin to smash down
The only sounds are the cicada's cries

The gales are pleading,
"Leave me be, leave me be…"
The end is nigh.

AbuseThere's nothing I want more than…
To feel your flesh rip around the blade in my hand
And your blood flowing through your shirt.
Only then will the shock in your eyes come to realize
You are the only one who really deserves to die.

As I stare deep into the mirror
I always ask,
"Why do you put up with this?"
Why do I put up with this?

Beating won't make me younger and I can't be unborn.
What do you want out of the names you call me?
Do you expect me to accept them?

Maybe next time
When I finally fall asleep,
I won't wake up.
Will that make you happy?
(I know it'd make me happy)

We may be alike in many ways
But I'll never

Become The ForestI am but a mere wanderer
In a forest of illusions.
The trees restrain me
With branches like daggers
And I can't make it home.

They lurk in the shadows
Proud like they've been blessed.
I haven't given in
And I will not fall.
There will be no time wasted.

(The peace has been depleted.
I'll win the battle amongst the gods.)

Suddenly I am running down a hall
With creatures chasing after me.
And of course, there's
That one locked door at the end…

Break it down! Break it down
Or get beat down! Get beat down!
(And yes, there had to be
A hole on the other side…)

Falling down the abyss…
Slowly falling asleep…

Thinking Of The EndOnce again, I'm sinking
Back into the shadows.
Seeing through red eyes
So it seems…

The moon is tainted
From black and white to crimson
Where all colors
Slowly fade away.

And like the light,
All the feelings have gone.

All my feelings are gone…

Like you and I are gone…

I stood above the raining clouds
Until we switched places
And now I'm further down.
Death was only thoughts
And memories.
Now we regret what we've got
In return…

Into the light,

Into the Hellfire,

Into the dark…

Into the light,

Into the Hellfire,

Into the dark…

ApocalypseRest away my friend.
The sun doesn't love no more.
When the day comes for the end,
The darkness inside will remain the same.

Who do I feel sorry for?
The people will kill and the rain will pour.
Who am I to save a life?
Is one soul worth the price?

I don't know anymore...

I don't know anymore...

I Am The Devil(I'll shed your tears if you let me...)

The needle sinks deeper every time.
Sepsis met past, and friends then die.

One to the left hand and one to the right hand,
Comes the pattern of God taking their lives.

Will she be ready for another theft?
One day, there will be no one left.
My time is soon, so should I repent?
The only way out is to put my heart up for rent.

I hold up a sign saying, "USE ME."
I'm for free, so take me.

Slow down, calm now...
There's no need for a self-to-self show-down.
Don't swear, don't scream!
"It wasn't me!" in my head I always plead.

...but I don't mind.
I don't mind.
(Ha, ha, ha…)

The needle

We Die TonightThe cracks are covered with cellophane.
The hope is always out of reach.
And good memories seem to be
The only thing we can never keep.

The louder the scream, the less the sting,
Stopped working years ago.
So now our fractured lives hang in the air
And a note is left so our death is clear.

(Sleeping pills and masking tape
Surround us on the bed.
Coal burners and briquettes
Dance around in my head.)

Burning, keep on burning in the room
Then you'll find sleep comes easy
When your dreams are gone, too.
The hope is always out of reach,
So lay to rest as the door is closed.
Lick your lips for our last kiss.
Finally, we've made

A Memory Unable to EraseThe cracks reaching to our
Hearts down the walls
The stains on the old hotel's bathroom floor
Won't ever allow me to let go

Love is so ambiguous isn't it?
Just one word you said so isolated
Like it was just us against the world
Which it always was and always will be

That was the only thing that was certain
The only thing alive and real
Yet you threw it all away
For merely a selfish feeling

Then all of the emotions spun out of control
So you left as quick as a light switch
Turning your life off without one word
Breaking your promise and now, so am I

I remember the last time you said,
"I love you."
It's like running from rain

Gone, Gone, Everything is Gonegone, gone, everything is gone
even the nightmares have left me to go on
all alone

slice, slice, everything is silent
even the shadows leave me in the darkness
to fend for myself

done, finished, tired of trying
too hard to find something that will fight to revive me!
too hard to find something that just isn't there!

insult, injury, there is no hope
no one to save me, no way to cope
even my closest friends are now strangers

liar, liar, you promised you'd be there!
but you're just like the rest - pretending you cared!
and, just like the rest, you've left me as well.

i climb.
i slip.
i fall.

The End Of The World. Who's To Blame?Holding on
To the handle broken off the door
Which is stuck in the wall

I feel the
Pain releasing as the shard of metal
Digs deep in my hands

"What's on the other side?"
You may ask.
"There's voices on the other side."

And as you, I wonder why

Since everyone in the world has died.

All my friends are made of memories.
Just voices and visions of people
Who don't exist.
The pain was once too much to bear
But I've forgotten…

What's the point in remembering the past
If all it is, is memories of lies?
They're locked away and I tossed the keys.
Those friends never did last.

Darkness is my friend.
(He's always there for me.

It gets betterIt might not have been your day,
With the sky above turned all gray.
You might ask yourself why?
Sometimes it feels like you slightly die.

You carry this secret with you,
It might make you feel a bit blue.
You don't dare to tell another person,
Fearing your image might worsen.

Fearing of what they might think,
Fearing they might leave you in a blink
Thinking what you will say
When you will tell your parents you're gay

But the actual feeling when you tell,
Even if it might feel slightly like hell.
You know that you are now free,
And you know it will get better,
on that you can trust me.

BlindWhen I close my green eyes
If I focus I can see
People and places from my past
Etched in my memory

If a blind man closes his eyes
What can he possibly see
Without any visual images
Stored in his memory

How do I describe colour
To man who is born blind
The same way I describe my love
Within these heart felt rhymes

When I close my green eyes
I use my mind to conjure up
Dreams of the future, based on
Pages already written in my book

If a blind woman closes her eyes
What future can she see
Unable to visualise
Her fate and her destiny

How do I describe colour
To woman who is born blind
The same way I describe my love
Withi

In Love, I RemainI hold the guitar against me
But I'm afraid it just wont do
No notes that I play could compare
To the symphony that is you

So who is the orchestrator
Of this harmonic elegance
The beauty of which sustains me
With such a lasting resonance

Angels, please sing us a chorus
And paint the clouds so silver lined
May she always dream in colour
And may I always speak in rhyme
One single whispered word from her
Always seems to eclipse my pain
With belief, hope and destiny
Forever in love, I remain

I hold the paintbrush in my hand
Until creative thoughts will cease
But no strokes could ever come close
To your beautiful masterpiece

Ea

Soul Couldn't WaitSoul couldn't wait
The silence that erased her face
To nothing
Foreboding windy days
That smile she hides behind
Just if there were better ways

I can't say I didn't think it'd come to this
Take a handful and relieve your helplessness
Such a precious life, such a waste…

Who's staring back isn't you

I have no regrets

Now I'm addicted to my own mask…

I can hear what they're saying
And it's like being buried alive
What seems fictional
Is as real as ever
And now I'm like
A natural born killer
I suppose some lessons are never learned…

Just if I could tell you what's on my mind
And rebel against the consequences
Before the flames bottle me up inside myself
You should know, pain is a prophecy

Dancing softly
Away from the sky
From the wide horizon
Then she notices the

Calms her small child
And rests the

Laying herself down near
The stream on the

On us, the branches sway away.
Us, down below

People die when they are young
Either way, the crow waits outside
To greet you another day
Then watch over you
When you are alone in the dark

Sleep quietly in the dark
Rest until you are well old
Then maybe the people will forget you
Like they did when you were young
As they did every day
And told you to play outside

The crow watches you outside
Picking at a broken toy in the dark
And do the same the next day
As the woman who was old
Disappeared, and the woman who was young
Got scared and left you

On your own to do what you
Wanted to do, which was not outside
Even though you were very young

There's no doubt, you won't find your way tonight
Underground, cold as dead
Dreaming there, alone in bed

Forbidden days to come
As far as I can see
I've been hiding my insides
And I see it's the death of me

You'll be dead by night before you touch the light
There's no doubt, you won't find your way tonight

Time ticks by as night draws near
The day has gone since we moved on

Stuck on things that we believed
Has become resolved on things unseen

You'll be dead by night before you touch the light
There's no doubt, you won't find your way tonight

Search this time for something sweet, divine
Lost

Who Is She?

by ~JoplinSpider, Aug 15, 2012, 8:01:59 PM
Literature / Poetry / Emotional / Songs & Lyrics

In the corner
With an unlit cigarette,
She gently stares to the ground
Walking through the alleyway.

No one's there,
Just her and her thoughts.
With teary eyes,
Silently crying to herself.

All those personal questions
We'd somehow get around
Leaves me thinking,
"Who will I become?"

And I thought the sun was
Beautiful before you tore it down...
Nothing ever goes the way you want it,
So don't tell me that one day it will.

The sun goes down,
But she can't tell.
Her memories black out
The present that is Hell.

But it's all the same.
The phrase, "family" died.
Long ago and far away
Are the choices she can make.

Now can you guess what she did that night?

All those personal questions
We'd somehow get around
Leaves me thinking,
"What did I become?"

And I thought the sun was
Beautiful before you tore it down...
Nothing ever goes the way you want it,
So don't tell me that one day it will.

I'm not alright…
