Pitter pat Pitter pat.
Like rain above my head.

Pitter pat Pitter pat.
Blood flows to it's bed.

Pitter pat Pitter pat.
Making a puddle of red.

Pitter pat Pitter pat.
Enough has been shed.

Pitter pat Pitter pat.
My deathbed up ahead.

Pitter pat Pitter pat.
Enough has been said.

Pitter pat Pitter pat.
To death I be wed.

Pitter pat Pitter pat.
A war makes a cold deathbed.

I search blindly in the damp, dark labyrinth.
Here light is a myth.

This pitch blackness, madness,  and sadness engulfs me
and stabs at my heart.
This agony tears me apart.

Another dead end, back to the start.

As the labyrinth twists and turns
I stumble and fall with my concerns.
I continue to search where blackness parts.

Another dead end, back to the start.

I call out to you where you perch,
Hoping the message goes to heart.

Another dead end, back tot he start.

Don't look at my face.
I'm a disgrace.

Erase.

Don't look at my face.
I'm always out of place.

Deface.

Don't look at my face.
I'm a song without bass.

Misplace.

Don't look at my face.
I have no grace.

Replace.

Don't look at my face.
Disappear without trace.

Displace.

Don't look at my face.

I'm sitting in class
bored to tears.

What's this I hear?
Your voice in my ears
and it is ever so clear.

Pulling me back to the night
Your love for me disappeared.

I knew when I found you with
that volunteer and
His **** in your rear.

I was hurt so severe.
We're never going to persevere.
The image of you as a souvenir.
Forever you will be a smear
As you failed to adhere.

I commandeered all the
*****, whiskey, and beer
From the cashier.

Driving in high gear
in my drunken sphere.

I went to the end of the pier.
Put that gun to my inner ear.

Pulling the trigger is near
when I hear in both ears,
"Class! Get out of here!"

As my peers cheer and clear
I am left to think of
My Greatest Fear

Adhere to me you have for
and entire year.

I love you my dear.

I pour my heart out in ink.
As it spills all over the sink,
I can’t help but blink and think
To just take another drink.

Gotta swallow back this sorrow.
Time to rethink about the marrow.
Try to re-sync my chest which is now hallow
And filled with stink.

No longer can swallow,
My throat has a kink.

My blink becomes a long wink.
Can’t swallow.
I shrink.

Now at the brink
I fall down to this sink
With all this spilled ink.

Whenever you meet someone special
You never want to let go.

You hang on for dear life
Hoping!
Praying!

That you won’t fall on your face.

But when you do,
Everything in life becomes worthless.

Food becomes tasteless,
Your thirst is never quenched,
And you drown your sorrow with liquor.

Hiding behind your smile you wondering
If what you did was too much
Or too few.

With each step you take
You think of the one you lost.

But no matter how strong you are
This feeling will beat you to
Your knees.

However the true test is
When you try to break this feeling.

Because it holds on for dear life.
Hoping!
Praying!

That you will fall on your face.

Every time ya’ walk through that door
I hit the floor.

Ya’ have me beggin’ for more.

My only wish is for
ya’ to adore me.

So take my hand cause’ we can soar.

As a matter of fact let’s take a
Walk on the shore
My Lenore.

Cause’ I wanna get to know ya’
Down to the core.

With all this love I have
To give there’s no way we
Can be poor.

Please baby don’t ignore!

I can’t wait anymore!

Put your arms around me cause’
We can stand before
Anything *******.
