Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
    In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand,
Vanished from my hand,
Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet,
I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming.

    Hey, Mr.Tambourine Man, etc.

Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship,
My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip,
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels
To be wanderin'.
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way,
I promise to go under it.

    Hey, Mr.Tambourine Man, etc.

Though you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the sun,

It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run
And but for the sky there are no fences facin'.
And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're
Seeing' that he's chasing

    Hey, Mr.Tambourine Man, etc.
Books:
the greatest weapons of the world.
Full of Mocking jays.
Each one being Divergent
to the others.
Books are like a Maze
that we have to Run through.
They're like a Testing
that will never end.
Not even the great Hogwarts
can stand against their power.
Books are more beautiful than the Twilight sky.
More powerful than Percy Jackson,
than the Heroes of Olympus.
Books are the true heroes of the world.
As you can tell, I love books. :D
As I stay up at night
I think about the pain
And wonder how the light
Can shine through the rain

It's so hard to see through it
I just can't find a way out
Through this rain that just won't quit
There is no point to try to shout

Because nobody will hear
Nobody will listen
There is nobody near
Except my tears that glisten

So I go on everyday
With that smile that is not real
I wish I could just fade
So there will be nothing left to feel
I watch my hands
Destroying that mirror
And I finally understand
That I am a killer

Not only is the mirror breaking
But I am too
And I know that I am hating
The one staring back through

Nobody can hate me
As much as I do
Now you can see
What has been hidden from you

People say they love me
But they love the fact that they aren't alone
Would they live on in glee
If all that was left of me was my bones

I know I have nobody
And I guess I don't care
I've never lived comfortably
Only in despair

So this is the end
Of this mirror of mine
No more time to pretend
This is the end of my line
The color pink
Is more than it seems
Some find it pretty
Others think of piggies

I think of what it once was
Before it was on a canvas
It was the color red
The color of bloodshed

From pink to red
Only seeing dread
From being innocent to sinful
And never being wishful

I'll paint with the color of blood
And all your emotions will flood
You'll be scared and scarred
Until everything goes dark

You've never seen one die
At least not with a smile and closed eyes
With blood on their hands
And the whole thing planned

You're trying to think of how
I could possibly be dead now
It's a pretty easy answer though
The pink is gone so the red will flow
Colors are seasons
Seasons are people because
They will always change
Haiku
Give me a break
Before I make a mistake
It will ruin your world
Which I somehow am a part of
Sing me a song
Before my last breath is gone
I don't want to be alone
It's such a frightening feeling
We will all fade
And today is my day

I've memorized your footsteps
Just like I've memorized the cob webs
You know, the ones forming in my heart
They're spreading through my body
Won't be long until they consume me
I have lost hope of becoming free
What's the point of living if we will all die
"Being happy is what matters" they say
How am I supposed to stay happily awake
When I can't even get a break
Close your eyes
And it'll be over soon.
You won't feel the blows
Or his unwholesome touch.
I miss the one who cared for me,
If I close my eyes,
Maybe I can pretend he's here
And not the one who hurts me.
If I close my eyes,
Maybe endings will be easier.
If I close my eyes,
It will all be over soon.
