I* shall never forget

Where you came from
All the Way back
Never will I let you go
Together is where we belong

Under the night sky we lay
Stars shining oh so bright

This is what I need
On this night, here with you

Be careful my mind said
Even though my heart disagreed

Forget the past
Only remember the future
Real is finally what we are
Even all the **** we went through
Vividly play in my mind
Everything got us here
Remember forever that I love you

What the **** am I thinking
I must not 'cause look at what I'm doing
I just have a knack for ruining things
Especially the ones that mean the most

Are you going to be here when I come home
Or will you leave me again, will I be alone

No more you, no more me
All this has me question reality
Sure these things all feel real
But what you're saying just can't be true
Granted that it's only a matter of time
Before I'm useless to you and your existence

What the **** am I thinking
I must not 'cause look at what I'm doing
I just have a knack for ruining things
Especially the ones that mean the most

Are you going to be here when I come home
Or will you leave me again, will I be alone

I constantly sing about my heart breaking
I truly wish I could stop how you feel
How you think the answers a bullet or rope
Baby just have a little hope
No harm will ever come your way
Not today or any other day

There will never be a time in which you fall
That I won't catch you and stand you up tall

What the **** am I thinking
I must not 'cause look at what I'm doing
I just have a knack for ruining things
Especially the ones that mean the most

Are you going to be here when I come home
Or will you leave me again, will I be alone

I can't take this pain anymore
Just come back and run into my arms
They won't ever let you go again
That's a promise I intend to keep
Because no matter what I ever love
None of it will come close to you

We always knew we’d never reach individuality and if we did we’d be outlawed
Because we’re always categorized
And there is no end to what we start
We think that if we ever stopped seeking out what it is that keeps us growing
Then we’ll never stop working for peace.
Were always searching, this path is not easy to walk upon.
Were always seeking knowing that were eager to change
Were searching, seeking, reaching for something more.
I had to do a project for English in which we rewrite the words to a song for the book Anthem By Ayn Rand. I chose to rewrite Searching, Seeking, Reaching,  Always by We Came As Romans.

I got an A. I hope you enjoy.

I'll never forget the first time
You put your lips on mine
Or the time when we decided to take another chance
When we decided it was time for another dance
Those who don't believe in us are all wrong
We were meant for each other all along

Beauty works in it's own way
You remind me of that every day
You don't have a flaw, at least in my eyes
You're lovelier then these pale blue skies

So maybe one day when it's forever
You and I can watch each other
Get older and older with every passing houw
Even in old age I'd still climb to the highest tower
Well boo it's because if it's for you
You're **** right I'm going to do what I got to do

Beauty works in it's own way
You remind me of that every day
You don't have a flaw, at least in my eyes
You're lovelier then these pale blue skies

I don't care about the past anymore
Our story can be passed down like folk-lore
How you and I finally came to be
Like Romeo & Juliet you'll see
The difference is we won't have a tragic end
Because I won't ever leave my best friend

Beauty works in it's own way
You remind me of that every day
You don't have a flaw, at least in my eyes
You're lovelier then these pale blue skies

Yeah, Go!

We grow up in a world filled with hate
Just to die with a tainted slate
I can't see the point in everything
Especially if it brings in a painful sting

Dear world can't you see what you've done!?
Or how you've spoiled all the fun!?
No I didn't think so..

Do what you need to do
******* away, I ******* dare you
Send me flying with nobody around
Hear me scream every time I hit the ground

I try and grasp what I just saw
Kneel to the floor and pick up my jaw
The one percent is feel with greed and swine
Considering all they do is whine

So the next time you go to complain
Understand that what you feel isn't pain
It's more of just being a *****

So do what you gotta do
******* away, I ******* dare you
Send me flying when nobody's around
Hear me scream every time I hit the ground

******* away, ******* away
End it today, end it today

Oh!

So do what you gotta do
******* away, I ******* dare you
Send me flying when nobody's around
Hear me scream every time I hit the ground

Looks like I'm losing it again
Mind in turmoil and chaos
Questioning the existence of love
Losing my mind in thoughts of up above

I keep dreaming
It keeps leaving

Wake up and see the world
Never gonna speak another word
Put life on the back thought
Leave it there to die and rot

I breakdown walls built around me
Breakdown walls so I can see
Can't you let me be happy
Skip the ******* don't be sassy

I seek refuge in paradise
Where I'll be alone all the time
So nobody can hear my cries
So nobody can read my new rhymes

I keep dreaming
You Keep leaving

Wake up and see the world
Never gonna speak another word
Put life on the back thought
Leave it there to die and rot

I may uncertain of a destination
But I'll leave without hesitation
Stormy pasts lit by bright futures
In search of someone who nurtures

You start dreaming
I start leaving

I'm not a role model, it just isn't me
But there are things you need to see
A side of me you might not like
This side isn't as easy as riding a bike
What if you don't approve and let me go
Make up your mind time's moving to slow

Breathing is the hardest thing to do
When I'm looking right at you
With the sound of your voice
My breath's taken away
You made your choice
And I don't know what to say

Your favorite flowers and a special rose
You know how many girls would **** for those
I just couldn't keep up with his flair
You forgot about me and never stopped to care
I could say things are better
But they're **** when we aren't together

Breathing is the hardest thing to do
When I'm looking right at you
With the sound of your voice
My breath's taken away
You made your choice
And I don't know what to say

I swear to God I'll get my life on track
If it helps me win you back
I storm the gates and ask for forgiveness
Time seems to stand still it's an eerie stillness
One day when there isn't any more time
You'll turn on the radio and hear this rhyme

Breathing is the hardest thing to do
When I'm looking right at you

I put my faith in you
Gave you more then ever
Still you didn't believe in forever
So don't ask again if we can be together
Forever has turned into never

Go!

I don't need your kiss
I don't need your love
I just want to go on ahead
Too many tears have been shed
This was never meant to last
You're now apart of my past

You lied through your teeth
Good thing I didn't wait to breathe
I was just someone you used
My heart was just something you abused
So when it's late, late, late at night
And you cry after another fight
Just remember....

I don't need your love
I don't need your kiss
I just want to go on ahead
Too many tears have been shed
This was never meant to last
You're now apart of my past

Instead of looking back on the good
I watched the bad and finally understood
There were holes in everything you said
The anger you had was burning read
I found out the truth and finally won
So don't bet on being my only one

I don't need your love
I don't need your kiss
I just want to go on ahead
Too many tears have been shed
This was never meant to last
You're now apart of my past

Now don't get me wrong
I loved you all along
I just needed the clouds to part
It ***** for that, it took a broken heart

So when it's late, late, late at night
And you cry after another fight
Just remember.....

I don't need your love
I don't need your kiss
Just know I'm sorry for everything
And that you'll always be my greatest win

Simple things aren't so simple after all
Though it was always me that answered the call
I was always there no matter what
Always knew when to hit restart

Falling for you was a catastrophe
Knowing we'd never work in reality
It blew up in my face
Clearly there wasn't enough space

So this girls got me feeling reckless
Not knowing what got me in this
I can see what we need to do
How to do it I haven't a clue

In between the lines we dwell
Not in our heaven not in our hell
Purgatory is a place not a noun
It isn't up nor is it down

Falling for you was a catastrophe
Knowing we'd never work in reality
It blew up in my face
Clearly there wasn't enough space

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

You claim you need some time
Just to commit the perfect crime
I beg to differ with your theory
It's obvious you aren't thinking clearly

Falling for you was an epic fail
Your heart was indeed stale
You needed a crutch to lean on
And a heart to stomp on

Well that just ***** to be me!
Please someone set me free!

Falling for you was a catastrophe
Knowing that we'd never work in reality
It blew up in my face
There just wasn't enough space

My First Post. Let Me Know What You Think.


It was all a game
Didn't matter did it?
Bout fortune or fame
your tricks and your lies didn't fit
no matter how hard i tried
to not believe
to late my heart was fried
i screamed get out and leave

out the door you went
babe the time wasn't well spent
i'll never get it back
**** you did was ******* wack
how do i rebuild my life
without you my love my wife
people say life will go on
but i met, then my life was gone

so now here i go
taking two steps forward
not for anyone, will i stoop so low
everyone new i meet, i'll be straightforward
don't buy me a drink
i'll be dead in a wink
i shot it dropped it smoked it
i saw what i did
so i up and quit it
i capped that chapter of my life with a lid

It was all a game
Didn't matter did it?
Bout fortune or fame
your tricks and your lies didn't fit
no matter how hard i tried
for it was all to late
my beating heart was fried
for that these words are pure hate

out the door you went
babe the time wasn't well spent
i'll never get it back
**** you did was ******* wack
how do i rebuild my life
without you, my love, my wife
people say life will go one
but i met you then life was gone

not for anything or anyone
will i stoop so low
oh so glad i said i was done
so now here i go
for something or someone new
is what i strive toward
people like me come to few

Don't buy me a drink
I'll be dead in a wink
I shot it, dropped it, smoked it
I saw what I did
So up and quit it
I capped that chapter of my life with a lid
Later on Here I stand
Brothers Sisters hand in hand

Boy am I glad for this change
Guess I just wasn't outta God's range
I am a brand new me
Done calling me and you we
In and outta hell i went
Here on forth my time'll be well spent

Dark memories forged into my mind
There are many of my kind
So don't pretend I'm the only one
That lives under the sun

Can you think of a way to leave
Can you think of a way to believe

I try and try to get clean
Just to undo the undone
And spoil all your fun

I'm afraid I don't get what you mean
I just have dark memories that are black
I have no hope of ever getting them back

This life has me question the work of above
It has be doubting a thing called love
I am cold and dead inside
And I can no longer live in the dark and hide

I will come out to see the light
And no longer dwell at night

I try and try to get clean
Just to undo the undone
And spoil all our fun

I need to return to my queen
Tell her that I'm sober
Which is worse then being hungover

I cannot dwell on what was
Well just, just because
I have been home to long
Is having one drink oh so wrong

Seeing your face makes me stop and see
This is not who I want to be
Going away from the bar
Getting very very far

I try and try to get clean
Just to undo the undone
And spoil all your fun

Here I stand with a broken bottle
Living life at full throttle
Can't apply brakes its to late for that

This is about my current struggle, people say I have a problem but I don't know.

I can sense your words are filled with air
Don't you fake like you care
You should see what you've come to be
Just look in a mirror and see!

C'mon like really!?
Just let me speak my mind freely
You seemed to good, to cute
You abused and played me like a flute

No amount of time can ever heal!
How ****** you made me ******* feel!

In every way imaginable you ****
No break you never sit and chill
One little word can send waves through and through
Effecting everyone, including you to

Woah Woah Woah
C'mon like really?
Woah Woah Woah
Just speak your mind freely

You turn your head and free your mind
It seems the world to you, ain't so kind
Looks like this thing ain't a thing no more

You pick out of a crowd
Cover your heart with a shroud
It seems your out to settle a score

C'mon baby like really
You chose not to speak freely
You thought I'd just go away
No not today, no not today

Go!!

I try to forget too many things
Think I can fly but I have no wings
It was a time of uncertainty
So I begged for a guilty plea

Thought I'd get the bare minimum
Maybe just pay some hefty sum
But no, got both sum and cell time
I can do the time, can't pay a dime

It was something I shouldn't have touched
So mad so rushed
Who knew I could cause a death
I didnt up until your last breath

Of  ones cold warm skin
My only issue was I didn't win

A fresh start would be useful
More like very needed to me
So God just please set me free
These past months have been awful

So let's break away from each others grasp
Start a future forget the the past
Leave it all behind
Maybe now I can start to unwind

It was something I shouldn't have touched
So mad so rushed
Who knew I could cause a death
I didn't up till your last breath

Of ones cold warm skin
My only issue was I didn't win

I step out a brand new man
If I wanted, I could have ran
Outside seems different
But right now that's all irrelevent

I visit your tombstone
I'm sorry I left you all alone
I'm sorry I took your life
I know if you were here now, you'd be my wife

I ask was it to much?
A regular death, a death by the touch
Of me.

Hey, the town is quite dark tonight
Can someone please turn on a light
All the lights are on you say
Then it must be my mood that has gone away

The pain will never disappear
Just like how you won't return here
It's become an empty place
With just one returning face
Oh it's become dark and incomplete
Like how I've become quiet and discreet

I've come back too many times
As if I want to witness your crimes
Sometimes I just miss you being my friend
That was the hardest thing I witnessed end

The pain will never disappear
Just like how you won't return here
It's become an empty place
With just one returning face
Oh it's become dark and incomplete
Like how I've become quiet and discreet

No longer do I want to look down
No longer do I want to frown
I can't help it though
'Cause I don't know where to go

Seeing you for the first time
Brings back pain and sorrow
I can see now, I'll miss you tomorrow
Your name leaves my mouth sour like a lime

So maybe later on down the road
We can come together alone and cold
Hold each other for one last night
Leave each other after another stupid fight

I can feel your eyes burn as they hit my skin
No way in hell I will ever win
Good thing I decided on another lovely lady
This one's past at least isn't shady

Grasping the air as if its possible
Grasping your hand is the improbable
See me now!
Hear me now!

So maybe later on down the road
We can come together alone and cold
Hold each other for one last night
Then leave again after another stupid fight

There will always be that tunnel
Where its either you or beer funnel
Wonder which one I will choose
But with you I always lose

Free my mind from all you say
Glad that finally your gone today
Bring me back to the bright days

Glad that I could get you to listen
Now I walk away dancing and whistlen'
Never gonna veer from my chosen path

So maybe later on down the road
We can come together alone and cold
Hold each other for one last night
Then leave again after another stupid fight

Dark Days may lie ahead
But at least I won't be dead
If I am in your eyes
Just remember all you told was lies

It's good
It's all good
Down here in the pits
Down here in the pits of hell

Tried something a little darker, let me know what you think
Bret Desrochers Nov 2011
Holding you felt so so right
This will become an unforgettable night
I don't believe in much of stuff above
But this is most certainly true love

I peer out into the empty land
Wishing you were here to fill my empty hands
Sometimes wishes don't come true
Still I will always pray for you

I'm here if there is an empty hole
In your heart or in your soul
Trust me, and I can set you free
I will never ask for sympathy

Walk across water
Burn to get hotter
Drink to quench a thirst
*******, wouldn't be my first

I can longer live without you
No matter what I have to do
You are the only one I will ever choose

We live a lifestyle lived by few
Only belonging to the true
Perched high never meant to lose

Verse 1

As if it wasn't enough
You had to act all tough
You make me spit fire
As you become a better liar

Chorus

It made it all go away
As you were here to stay
The things it made
As our love began to fade

Verse 2

You claimed to be a rebound
Attacked me like a hell hound
I kept on bleeding
You started heeding

Bridge

It was the price I had to pay
For I'd do anything to see you stay

Verse 3

People say we won't make it
But who in Hell gives a ****
Hold me one last time
Dear you are my worst Crime

Sometimes I get a feeling
That the walls are closing in
Look around me and there isn't a way out
The light above starts to dim and shrink

Escape doesn't seem to be in my future
Death seems to just be on my doorstep
Then it all disappears in a flash
Like nothing ever happened

Cross paths with someone you hate!
Kick their ***, it was always in their fate
Give someone what they deserve
I'm no cop, but I'm here to protect and serve!

Let's go!

Escape doesn't seem to be in my future
Death seems to just be on my doorstep
Then it all disappears in a flash
Like nothing ever happened

Breakaway, from the status quo
Stray off, the beaten path below
Hear and see me now
Am I still that disrespectful clown?

Escape! From this god awful place
Escape! Live life at a new pace
Escape! Just ******* escape!

Red blood seeping down the walls and pooling all over the pearl white floor.  

Finally unleashing a scream boiled inside, which pierces the air with an unmatched fury.

A menacing growl with every rev of its engine, an Audi R8 proves to be an evil on the road.

A fish has a slight taste of salt and cyanide, the poison killing millions without a look from the government.

Avenged Sevenfold’s Nightmare album, proving that even the happiest moment in your life. Can be a nightmare.

Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Mark Maquire, diminishing baseball’s glory with steroids.

The turmoil surrounding the government of Somalia and the pirates corrupting the country each and every day.

The unbearable scent of sulfur, burning the nostrils of your nose with every intake of air.

The lighting strike and the thunder crack.

You act like someone you want to be
And refuse to just set me free
Cry all you may and scream as you please
No longer will I fall for your silly tease

Your a fake ******* don't deny
Acting like what you do will end up with you in the sky
Your fate is deserved and long overdue
Don't care a bit and I sure as hell know why

You lie through your teeth every day
Not giving a **** for what other people have to say
Bring on the onslaught of what you ignored all this time
Deserving of being put away for your inhumane crime!

You always acted and faked
Freaking out when I got baked
Telling me to leave my friends and all the **** I know
***** that's a new low

Your a fake ******* don't deny
Acting like what you do will put you in the sky
Your fate is long overdue
Don't care a bit and I sure as hell know why

Everything suddenly becomes as clear as air
Looks don't ****, its rude to stare
I see right through what you pretend to be
So I just decide to set myself free

Darkness isn't always that dark
A dogs bark isn't always just a bark
You fear things the public deems fearful
You cry at the things the public deems tearful
It's time we earned our right
And it's time we put up a good fight

Here we go!

Grip the edge of your seat
Hold on tight for there will be no defeat
Up is the only way to go
You must move fast, can't delay for the slow

Don't you worry nothing is gonna harm you
Not as long my arms wrap around you
Together we can change the world for the good
And do everything we should

Darkness isn't always that dark
A dogs bark isn't always just a bark
You fear things the public deems fearful
You cry at the things the public deems tearful
It's time we earned our right
And it's time we put up a good fight

Growing close was always part of the plan
And it is exactly why I hold your hand
The people who doubted the strength of everyone
Underestimated the power of fun

Hold me tight! Tonight!
Show me it's real! What I feel!

Darkness isn't always that dark
A dogs bark isn't always just a bark
You fear things the public deems fearful
You cry at the things the public deems tearful
It's time we earned our right
And it's time we put up a good fight

Now go!

Clear the way, they are here
****** Red, thirsty for tears
Burn it to the ground!
With everything inside!

The angels and demons have arrived
setting in motion all the lies
bringing what we know to the earth

Light it up!
Set it down!
I hope you all ******* drown!

One after the other
falling and imploding!
Now they run!
Spoiling all our fun

Now we question the authority
of our so called saviors!
Are they wrong?

Even after they all went away
still on the fire raged!
Where will go now?

Ache in our bones
elements we cant control!
For it all ends
in due time!
This is more of a song then anything I wrote in song format and incorporated into a poem. Also ! means that that particular line is screamed.

Whisked away by air
Have you heard the term unfair
Even hell can recognize it
Remember the way you were
Except when you turned into her

All those who know
Remind me to lay low
Electrified by my anger

Yelled at by a so called God
Over and over again
U*ntil I reach the boiling the point

Gone is where I am
Gone is where i go

Sober as a drunk
Trying to get out of my funk
I inhale and swallow it down
Just to deal with people in this town

I set myself up for pain
It's inevitable like spring rain
Pure ******* runs in my blood
All I need is bros and bud

Goodbye Tonight, Goodbye Tonight
Can't imagine waking up at first light
It's a miracle I made it this far
I must be an ever burning star

I use up all I got left
Try to make do, try my best
It seems I'm a **** up unlike the rest

I lost that certain person I need
It was all just a joke to you
Faking what you went through

I wrote your name over and over
Till you curled up for the stay over
Holding you was worth the wait
Loving you cleans my slate

My efforts are hit or miss
Solid ground or a free fall to a dark abyss

Goodbye Tonight, Goodbye Tonight
Can't imagine I can make first light
Can't imagine how I got this far
No no, I must be an ever burning star

Put your fist into the ******* air
And bang your head, without a ******* care
Let me lose my forgotten mind
Hide it somewhere, no one will find
Hey, Hey!

Who do you see, when you don't know who you are
What do you do, when you think you've gone to far
Grace has left us, without a second thought
Grace left my body, left it to die and rot

Thinking gets me into some trouble
Even gets me seeing double
Put into the past what I thought was now
And shake, shake my mind down
Hit it boys!

Who do you see, when you don't know who you are
What do you do, when you think you've gone to far
Grace left us, without a second thought
Grace left my body, left it to die and rot

I waited so long
To grace a stage and sing my song
Here I go, down a lonely road
Here I go, embracing the cold

Can you feel it in your feet?
The quick, fast, and steady beat?

Who do you see, when you don't who you are
What do you do, when you think you've gone to far
Grace has left us, without a second thought
Grace has left my body, left it to die and rot

Go!

I got a rush and ain't ready to stop
Keep my body moving all night long
I see the top and I'm ready to go
I'm hilltop high and never going low

Escape from the hall of clean
It's time to breakout and wreak havoc
Upon the town till the morning sun
No cop no mom will ruin my fun

Veer away Veer Away
Nothing's gonna end today
Blur together my mind
Go and search, unsure of what you'll find

I got a rush and ain't ready to stop
Keep my body moving all night long
I see the top and I'm ready to go
I'm hilltop high and never going low

I was sent from the depths of hell
Here's the story I will tell
And stick by for all its time
This is my life, its all a crime

Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha

Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha

I'm a monster and your in too deep
The hill you wanna climb's to high and steep
You wanna catch up to me
Baby just wait and see

I got a rush and don't wanna stop
Keep my body moving all night long
I see the top and ready to go
I'm hilltop high and never going low

Stop!

It all went dark and bleak
I could start to feel my knees grow weak
My hands shook with every word you said
Anger had your face blood red

I'd be there until I was asked to leave
I always wore my heart, right on my sleeve

I'm dying to know how exactly you feel
All because you know how I feel
This separates us from the rest of the pack
Now that we've arrived there is no turning back

I just want you to be well aware
I just want you to be there and care
You proved to handle my highs
But can you withstand my lows

A time will come where you or I depart
It never will be an end just another start
So can I know you're gonna be okay
When the time comes on that fateful day

Kick it!

Twist open and let it pour out
You'll enjoy the pleasure I have no doubt
It'll bring you down to your knees
I can assure that, it'll be breeze

Enjoy today forget about tomorrow
Who needs to steal when you can borrow
Never say that you can't
Cause it'll start a rant
That'll never end
I can guarantee that my friend

It's easy to see what you need
Harder to tell what you want
Hit up the streets anytime I please
But is it what I want or what I need

Jump around let us have a good time
Having fun sure ain't a crime

Enjoy today forget about tomorrow
Who needs to steal you can just borrow
Never say that you can't
Cause it'll start a rant
That'll never end
I can guarantee that my friend

My pals are the people I like
They aren't gonna go leave and strike
Strike a blow straight to my back
Cause anger, is something we lack

I had to ditch
Cause sometimes life is a *****
But I came back to see your face
I ran back at a frantic pace

Every light I light
Can never warm me like you did that night
Cause our love was the only thing I did right

I walk away fighting the urge
To turn around at you and scream
You make it all seem worse then what it may be
I beg to you just set me free

You want to fight I can tell
And make me say something I'll regret
Even though I only regret falling for you
Especially after all this **** you do

I know what I say means nothing
It goes in one ear then out the other
I don't even know why I seem to bother

You're a liar and cheater
Somebody who thinks they can get away
With anything they do on any day

It seems you always need the last word
Ending ever sentence with a goodbye
Do I even care that you don't wanna try
You push me to the edge, you make me wanna die

Once again I will ask
If what I speak will reach your brain
Or if I wasted my breath for another time
Whatever you seem to do, seems to be a crime

I know what I say means nothing
It goes in one ear then out the other
I don't even know why I seem to bother

You're a liar and a cheater
Someone who thinks they can get away
With what they do on any day

It means nothing admit it
Cause you don't give two *****
No you don't, don't ******* lie
I hope what I say hits home, makes you cry!

I hoped one day you'd here me
I hoped one day you'd see
I hope you get it this time
I hope one day you'll end up singing this rhyme

It all seemed so simple not to long ago
I was never meant to upset the flow
You changed everything
By playing me like a violin

So here I go!

Here's a ******* to those who judge
And when proved wrong opinions don't budge
One day I will grace your TV screen
And hopefully then you get what I mean

Oh! I meant to say goodbye!
But your words hit home so I got high!
Others told me to stay away!
But I won't heed their advice, no not today!

I hoped one day you'd hear me
I hoped one day you'd see
I hope you get it this time
I hope one day you'll end up singing this rhyme

What has the world come to in this day and age!?
When bullies and ******* take center stage!
All the good will lie underneath

Do you not get what you do is wrong!?
I know you don't, hence this song!
All the good will underneath

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Can you repeat what I say!?

I hoped one day you'd hear me
I hoped one day you'd see
I hope you get it this time
I hope one day you'll end up singing this rhyme

Ooo, Ooo, Ooo

Can we all sit and talk quietly
And can we see some sincerity
Only once you understand and feel
Will you get how much it takes to heal

Go on ahead and check the scene
See if it has what it takes to get me clean
I've been to rock bottom and in a dark place
I need to rise up and see a bright face

I wonder who'd miss me
I wonder who'd show sincerity

Does anyone even care at all
If I stand or if I fall
I know that you don't
I won't ask for a visit I know you won't

I cannot even picture you these days
Your face is nothing but a foggy haze
As our memories burn into ash
I fight the urge to get high off hash

I wonder if she'll finally realize
I wonder if she'll see what she means in my eyes

Does anyone even care at all
If I stand or if I fall
I know that you don't
I'd ask for a visit but I know you won't

The words I speak aren't *******
And I mean all of it
Tomorrow is a brand new day
But can I get through today?

Why can't I escape my past
It ain't helping me and you last
I tried running rather then face my fears
That's got your eyes letting out tears
Don't you understand that what I told you
Was the hardest thing for me to ever do

One mistake was all it took
And you closed me like an old book
I never felt right again after you went away
All because I didn't know what to say

I asked you to have faith, keep trying
Maybe one day soon you can stop crying

I can't escape my past
It ain't helping me and you last
I tried running rather then face my fears
That's got your eyes letting out tears
Don't you understand that what I told you
Was the hardest thing for me to do

You're the main reason I got sober
So together you and I could grow closer
It wasn't for anyone except her
Nobody except for her

I asked you to have faith, keep trying
Maybe one day soon you can stop crying

I can no longer escape my past
It caught up to me way to fast
It took you into into its abyss
Cause it knew without you I'd lose my bliss

Cross another of the list
Of things I've ****** up
Still wonder if I can ever stop
Seems I'm always just to ******

Try my best to keep them at bay
Try to push them farther away
Seems I gotta start to practice what I preach
Just so I can keep my demons out of reach

Seems it wasn't to long ago
That I had it all, in the palm of my hand
'Till all the ******* reach a point
A point at which I could no longer stand

The so called "higher power" can't keep them at bay
Not today, no not today
Time to Move!

As the darkness pulls me to its hole
Swallows me up and spits me out
Except now I live without a soul

Seems like I couldn't keep them at bay
Please just listen to what I have to say
To what I have to preach
Seems like I'm within their reach

Go away and stay there
I can't handle another scare
Hit bottom, real low
Should I take it slow?

Just to keep my demons away
To keep them, keep them at bay

You wanna know how I feel
Well let me ask you this, how do I heal!
After you stick a knife through my chest
You said I was different then all the rest!

It's killing me, It's killing me
Knowing what you and I should be
Even though you and I can fight and argue
Just know that for you I am forever true

You want me clean and sober
Well I hope between you and him its over
You claim he taught you write and wrong
What you did is why I write this song

Kissing me was your mistake!
Holding you was my mistake!

Its killing me, Its killing me
Knowing what you and I should be
Even though you and I can fight and argue
For you I am forever true

Should I even ask why I should let you win
Cause knowing you, your gonna make me sin
I want us to work and move on
Hoping that this time it won' take long

Wanna know what takes me that high!
It's seeing your face everyday in the night sky!

Oh! I want this to end
Oh! I want this to be over
Can I just move on from the past
And try to make this **** last

It's Killing me, its killing me
Knowing what you and I should...be

Go ahead and let it out
Go ahead and let it out

You use your heart not for me
You save your anger and direct it at me
I thought we had gone beyond this place
So scream and no longer save face

This world is full of hate and pain
Tears around the world fall like rain
Sometimes I wonder if I'm better off alone
Who will care for you if I am gone?

So go ahead and scream
Always remember there's no I in team
Don't push me too far
Don't open a wound that'll heal but scar

I apologize for what remains in the past
If it's any comfort I think we can make this last
Your the light in these dark times
Baby please forgive me of my crimes

Only you and I can feel
Only you and I can heal
There is a place where we can go
I just need to know

Go ahead and let it out
Go ahead and let it out

So go ahead and scream
Always remember there is no I in team
Don't push me too far
Don't open a wound that'll heal but scar.

It's as if you still sit next to me
Truth be told the air's kind of eerie
Walk away from past right away
Just got to dream I'll stay

Let's pretend we're next to each other
Let's pretend we still love one another
Let us go play in the rain
And forget about our love being slain

It's the story of my life
Being the one who lost his wife

The day was bright and sunny
I said I love you honey
And as you ventured into the sky
The flame burnt out in my eye

We were a half written book
With something to find but nowhere to look
I will search for that treasure
For you honey it'll be my pleasure

Into your arms I wanna go
But I am aware I can't, no!

Let's pretend were next to each other
Let's pretend we still love one another
Let us go play in the rain
And forget about our love being slain

No, I'll never be the same
But I'm always gonna remember your name
You asked one time where you rank
Number one to be quite frank

Let's pretend were next to each other
Let's pretend we still love another
Let us go play in the rain
And forget about our love being slain

I sometimes wonder if I belong
Cause everything I do is somehow wrong
My day is never up, always down
I never smile, always frown

In this world I feel alone and lost
I'd do anything to loved and found
No matter the cost
'Till then I won't make a sound

This thought I think inside my head
Makes me think. Am I better off dead
I somehow wonder if one day it'll all make sense
Or is my life worth nothing but petty cents

People pretended to know what I went through
I thought everyone was fake until I met you

After that everything seemed to change for the good
You spoke to me and I finally understood
Just cause I'm lost doesn't mean I won't be found

In my mind I can sense some clarity
In my life I find some stability
Can see the light at the end of the tunnel

In this world I feel alone and lost
I'd do anything to be loved and found
No matter the cost
'Till then I dare not make a sound

Woah, Yeah

In this world I felt lost!
Wanted to be loved and found
I did not care bye who or the cost
Until you I never made a sound

here we sit in the moonlight
Pondering our last fight
Why is pain so hard
My heart needs a bodyguard

Your words hit home
As you ran away to Rome
It was over in seconds
To you my heart beckons

I thought it was all over
‘till she made me play red rover
I was up for repossession
Then I fought them with discretion

Everything started to go
I will never forget you though
She started the healing
Love I begun feeling

Is it wrong to feel love again
Your heart I must obtain

We sit here in the moonlight
Knowing we wont fight
She made me so happy
An Irishman woulda been ‘well done laddy’

So I thank you  for the pain
The sky cleared up after the rain
As if it was telling me
Letting you go was the greatest thing

You act like you know everything
But that ain't the case at all
You seem to think your what the world wants
You seem to think your what the world wants

You could never be more wrong
Then you are now preaching to me
You say all I'll do is get hurt
That's alright with me as long I can get my voice in

You act before you think
And your insults come out in a wink
You have no remorse
You scream so loud you turn hoarse

Come and tell me
Come and tell me, just one more time

I spent too much time dwelling
On the words you spoke
Your voice turned to poison in my mind
Sending me into a free fall of chaos

I got a thing called rage ready to blow
All over you in a second
Just waiting for the go, go, go
Just one more second, yeah

You act before you think
And your insults come out in a wink
You have no remorse
You scream so loud, your hoarse

Come and tell me
Come and tell me, one more time

The first poem I've tried to write, hard, considering I am on a Poetry site.
Bret Desrochers Dec 2011
Woah! Woah! Woah!

I have been gone for some time
I can't put in words how much I've missed you
Never knowing whether I'd see you again
Was it worth the wait, I think so

Oh!

Gonna stop being on the outside
I'm done looking in
Now it's everyone else's turn to hide
Cause I'm a ******* ready to sin

If going to hell is what you wish
I'm more then happy to help
Cause we know it's where you belong
Forever to die and rot alone

Dreading the very second this here ends
Unsure of what to expect once we die
Flying above or sinking below
Either or I'm not ready, no not ready

My apologies for you missing out
Now that I'm back there is no need to pout

Gonna stop being on the outside
I'm done looking in
It's everyone else's turn to hide
Cause I'm a ******* ready to sin

No more! Being on the outside
No more! Looking in

It's time! For everyone to hide
It's time! To unleash me and let me sin

Gonna stop being on the outside
I'm done looking in
It's everyone else's turn to hide
Cause I'm a ******* and I'm ready to

Sin!

Can't catch a break coming my way
Seems I'm having an awful ******* day
Ain't afraid to speak my mind
Straight to your face
(*******!) Give me my space

Blinded by anger and rage
Giving the war an epic stage
What'd I say about crossing me for a second time
Or a third or a fourth, your not forgiven no not this time

I'm aching from head to toe
This drug's brought me to a new low
Don't fuss cause I wanna be alone
Sit in the dark and get ******

Can't catch a break coming my way
Seems I'm having an awful ******* day
Ain't afraid to speak my mind
Straight to your face
(*******!) Give me my space

If it's one thought that'' last forever
It'll be watching you break into tears
Walking a way took a lot
Staying away took even more

Greatest decision I've made
If I only I had stayed
Not come back and see what I see
Knowing **** well that should be, me

I don't remember much from that night
But I do know all we did was fight
I messed up an amazing dream
But its about time that I came clean

You used to make me smile
Now you just make me feel sick and vile
The earth fell on top of my heart
Good thing I know how to restart

Your anger fueled my pain
Clean you out like another stain
Walked away from a bomb sent from below
So much for taking this slow

Hey I never forget a date
Even if it I get filled with hate

I say sorry you say untrue
You can't believe me, *******
My words to you were the truest of things
Your the angel to me unleash your wings

The lights in your eyes may dim and fade
But they'll always stay the same shade
I will always exist in your mind
Trust me, for I am never kind

Your anger fueled my pain
Clean you out like another stain
Walked away from a bomb sent from below
So much for taking this slow

Hey I never forget a date
Even if it I get filled with hate

Go away and let me go!
Don't stay for all you say is no!
Can only push one person so far!
Don't ever again call me a liar!

The woods seem like a familiar place
Familiar like the lines in your face
I was nowhere to be found
Until you saved me from the bloodhound

Our love rose and our love fell
It was just like heaven and hell
Without you though
There'd be no light to follow

Sometimes sorry just isn't enough
So I brought roses just to beg to be heard

The woods seem like a familiar place
Just like the lines in your face
I was nowhere to be found
Until you saved me from the bloodhound

I could no longer hide my love
Could not keep inside for another minute
I remember ever second we spent together
Specifically when you said love me, I said forever.

Woke up today with something to prove
decided to lay it all on the line
and boy was that line fine
a little liquid courage and I was off

Testing the waters of how far I could go
got the green light and It started to flow
the plan was starting
while my heart was stopping.

Words came out that had never before
started by saying I'd come back
to settle an uneven score
to throw your life off track

Ha ha ha yaaa

Time was always on my side
this could have been stopped a long time ago
but of course of course you lied
now I begin my never-ending throw.

Words came out that had never before
started by saying I'd come back
to settle an uneven score
to throw your life off track

Ha ha ha ya

(guitar solo)

How do you feel now?
like a top notch ***** I hope
never thought I'd stoop this low
till one day you came a long

Ha ha ha no

Words came out like never before
started by saying I'd come back
to settle an uneven score
to throw your perfect life way off track

Words came out then went back in
realized I would always win
I could not be stopped
I was superior in every way
to you the one who never thought you'd have to pay.

How's that working for ya

Ha ha ha ha ya

Fake. is your greatest attribute.
Real. is your greatest weakness.**

You. look and wave at goes right by.
You. will do it forever, no matter what it is.

Only. someone can change you.
Only. i've decided to give up.

I'm. sorry if nobody else will.
I'm. not really in a position to care.

Your. love is what i crave for.
Your. love is what i do not need.

I. turn to walk away.
I. reluctantly don't.

Chances. are few and far between.
Chances. are what you have run out of.

So. tell me why do this.
So. tell me why i love you.

I enter a world of the unknown
A place where feelings can't be told or shown
It seems everything is black and white
Can't see a thing, there is no light

It's all a realm of uncertainty and blame
Where everyone goes by the same name
Guilt.
Where it weighs so heavy it could tilt the world

Nobody counts, as days go by
No one stops, and says hi
A world so cold, full of hate and pain
Constant cloud, never to rain

Even if you wanted, you could never step out of line
Running away always seems so far away
Keep walking never able to rest or lay
Wishing I never lied about being fine

It's all a realm of uncertainty and blame
Where everyone goes by the same name
Guilt.
Where it weighs so heavy it could tilt the world

My life turned out to be so ******
Still regret not running away to New York City
I could be in a fancy new place
Not living at a turtle's pace

I wish I could fine a door
Leading to anywhere but here
If you listen closely you can tell
That this I'm by myself, my own personal hell.

I'll leave roses on your doorstep
Whenever you're feeling down
I'll take you anywhere you please
Cause baby you and I aren't bound
So let me be your prince
And I'll give you a crown

Save your time from looking
It's all right right here
And I know that it ain't easy
But I can show you which way to steer

Let me take you places unknown
Make memories that last forever
Turn days into weeks and months
And Since things can only get better and better
Maybe months can then turn into years
Then we can share our own piece of forever

Save your time from looking
It's all right here
And I know that it ain't easy
But I can show you which way to steer

You're way ahead of the playing field
And it drives me downright insane
But even though you make me crazy
I couldn't ever forget your name
And even though I disappear now and then
She knows I'll return just like the falling rain

Save your time from looking
It's all right here
And I know that it ain't easy
But I can show you which way to steer
