27/M/In My Head I just be writing.
Confusion, It takes its hold of me and burrows in my memories Diffusion, The back and forth the black and white I just can't choose a side Dissolution, When it all comes down to this I think I dismissed all the answers The Solution, Let it burn away until I'm left there holding nothing I can't get away the hallways always seem to loop back This won't go away I'm stuck inside a version of my myself that I thought died The demons are calling me with words so sweet I wish they were facts The angels that follow me are worried this might be a relapse The god that's inside of me is screaming won't you let go The part that's been killing me is I want to go home But there no rest in sight I've lost my right to the light And by the end of this night I'll know if I'm wrong or right Though it's been killing me, I really know I want to go home The demons that follow me with sweet words that shake me to the bone All of this time I spent just to understand that I know nothing All of the rage I felt has turned out to be aimed at nothing All of the pain I've felt was sought by my own hand Im searching for an enemy and found the target painted on my own back.

Miss Understanding
Used and passed around and let go. Promise you're a sinner but you ain't no *** Used and passed around and let go. Swearing that they love you but you never get a home Promise that you're worth it but they never keep you long Endlessly you wander searching ever for that song Little do you know we try to show you where your wrong Life is not perfection and we all share that truth No one's truly worthy when we haven't got a clue Heavens meant for better days your time in hell on earth will pave a future that is laced in gold but as for now the truth be told we all could use encouragement, the loving words, and time we spend to make us become better men so you just name your faults. Impatience and Anxiety oh what a joyous melody Agressive inconsiderate, you put yourself above the rest You want the world but seldom give the love you take no hesitance You can't be told that you are wrong cause in your eyes you've always won And how I know these words ring true you never think they're meant for you. The reason that they always leave, they never call and need to breathe, they love you when you've love to give but stay away for better days, I want to help I want to heal but not my place to fix your deal, a broken mind a broken heart with broken skin you bear the mark and little of the time we spent could erase all the pain you've felt I hope that you'll have better days with friends to laugh and wile away but truth be told I wrote this song cause I won't be with you for long, I take my leave with heavy heart, and pray I left a gentle mark, a seed that sprouts a thought that grows cause before long you will grow old, when beauty, bank, and form fall through, the only one that's loving you, Is you.

Digging myself, out of this hole Trying to find, what would name me while Lost in the past, let it limit my shine Searching for answers locked in my mind Worthy of love, I'm sure that I am But what would it take, to receive my demands Know I have strength, know that I'm strong So why when I stand up for myself I feel wrong I'm here to be loved, by the people who care So why does the love, that they show me make me scared Holding myself, to the standards I set Wanting to grow, as I try and forgot The voice of the truth, is the one I don't use Hurting myself, like I've got something to prove To say what I want, to say what I need I long for the moment I can finally be free Only stopping myself, and holding my breath I'm 'fraid to draw lines, but closed mouths don't get fed Worthy of love, I'm sure that you are But what would it take, to make you state your demands I see inner strength, I know you are strong I love when you stand up, let me know what is wrong You may not need love, but I'll show that I care Ask what is needed, and never know fear Holding yourself, to the standards I set Little do you know, I want what's the best Your voice carries truth, I hear when you talk I want you to heal, what's you grow and improve Just say what you want, just say what you need I'll help if you need it, so you'll find inner peace You're stopping yourself, just let go and breathe Have faith, draw your lines, 'till you feel safe with me. Digging myself, out of this hole Trying to find, what would name me while Lost in the past, let it limit my shine Searching for answers locked in my mind

The potential of disaster or perfect collision Did we lose sight of the original mission Are distance and status creating division? Confidence wavers at the moment of decision Hesitant to feel, give into the flow of unspoken words that seldom hold the feeling behind verbal contact, lost passion on the wind drifting off from our tongues and our eyes, watch the hands, does the longing drive you mad, sure of the reception knowing you'll be accepted, but both cowards at the apex not willing to indulge ourselves in the most harmless of risks, a moment, a loss, a potential bliss, knowing our worth, knowing each other, exchanging emotions as we find ourselves within each other's range but like magnets the attraction leads to repulsion, fueled by conceptual barriers constructed by the filth of the physical, calamity of humanity a fickle mind and frozen heart so much so that eagerness for light and love is masked by fear of pain and past, like walls that form between our dreams that petrify reality, the game is played until its done, until time has won, and we've never begun, but oh we dreamed of it with clarity, the love we'd have, if we were free, like the animals we are, indulging in carnality and hedonism, reject the will of civilization, concepts formed to dominate, put man above man, we could see the boundaries between us rent apart nothing more than empty words hinging on empty thoughts that mean nothing to the energy between us, a million reasons, a thousand rejections, thought if cards played right could be perfection, to bet some time, a move of faith, we could separate from the conscious of man, the weakness and lies it brings, accept the will of the spirits, immersed in the universe, heeding the call of nature we locked away in our own man made order, heeding spirits with wisdom beyond any man, creature, or beast, and see if our love was something God planned.

Blackest nights and hearts of hearts As the feeling hits my bones Vast illusions take their hold Welcome evil to its throne Embrace the stars that guide my fate they've often burned when I arrive too late It seems I'm running in a vector leading myself back to what I hate I picked the crown from all the roses, chose to drown yet dreamt of floating, spending precious time just hoping, loves a drug so now I'm doping, heart so broken no use coping, all this ink black blood is flowing, spilling from my tongue it stains the ground pollutes the mud Wasted words, from wasted tongues I think I've fallen out of love and now this freedom cuts me open just to rip out all these pieces, voices, words, and thesis I've been Clinging to this life, God should just hand me the knife, I'll carve myself a new beginning. Stab myself with a thousand needles to drive it home once more that there is no growth without pain and from me all the hues of red and black come pouring out in a catharsis of the self inflicted damage I've pursued in the twisted notion that accepting this pain will leave me with nothing left to lose and everything left to gain but as it turns out the gods were never so cruel and never so kind as to let me weather the entire storm to prove to myself that I was truly alive. No. No. Take me, break me, shatter my illusions, drive my mind into confusion, take from me everything I hold true and run it through the strainer that's you, God of wisdom take my hand and drag me through the burning sands, and take from me right as I bleed through every wound you set me free, crush my faith, tear out my eyes, if I don't make it death is fine, gifted wisdom from divine, is worth this anguished mortal life, show me death and show me light, show me plenty show me strife, cast upon I beg of thee, make me listen make me free.

Do you stumble when you fall or does the weight of this world send you crashing to the ground as the jeers from the crowd snap at your heels like hounds bred for slaughter that never knew light but could only feel hunger and see you as a victim as only a measure of scrap just a snack for the time of the night while you fight do you know why you value your life stuck to work like a cog or a slave just because you get paid wont mean **** the next day as you're stuck in the cycle and do it again and again Can you feel me, I know you can hear, but can you just feel me, I'm bleeding from my heart of tin, that I've wrapped up, the sound of it beating, its trying to greet me, but I'm far too greedy with my peace of mind, to let what's inside, set me free make me blind, and I've always just known that the truth could not hide, so what did I find while I'm searching for answers, the truth was I'm scared and took flight like a dancer on wind, as I'm screaming "You know I will find you" the signs point behind me but I'm just a coward who wont learn to turn. I've always been too scared to turn, Myself Into what I dream to fill my sea of memories with joy and love if meant to be and yet I put a stop to whimsy find myself in cryptic visions haunting tales of sorrow laced with deep depression, masked with brute aggression, deaf to all suggestion, monster of me I will make of myself, cause the beast with no knowledge is easy to trick, and the games that I play may be all with myself, but I'm too scared of losing so each trap I lay I ensure that I fall on and both my legs break just to stutter my progress before its too late, and light much like darkness is found in all man but I'm too busy drowning in hourglass sand, to take stock of the meaning that both are in balance

Falling faster, call the pastor He's a ******* don't extract her Sharing dreams, now cross the fracture Changing fonts to write new chapters Drowning in laughter What's the matter Can't you see the one you're after Hypocritic, I'm a cynic Watching you reach for quite a minute Can you save her, can you savor All the moments you've enslaved her Now you're burning, conscious hurting See yourself as undeserving What you're learning Stomach is churning Freedom means you're by yourself Inky depth, in the darkness of my mind Lobotomize my tongue, let me drool it out like wine A verbal vorpal blade, that seeks to make you mine You're bleeding out emotions, so we're only wasting time Tragedy has left you broken into pieces undefined, Faceless emotions, and flimsy love potions You can swim across the oceans if you follow in their motions Late night with the lotion, Spirit bomb explosion Water makes erosion, I'm burning out my Trojan

Bluetooth Exorcism
Holding on to memories Living in the past Wanting to go back in time The future comes too fast Replaying the stories in your head while laying in your bed Regrets are flooding in your thoughts you're only free when you're dead Silence all the voices Demons whispers spreading doubt in every action that you take Are you moving farther from the light with every single forced mistake Find yourself In the heart of the void Telling people stories of the chaos that you've wrought Only in that moment will you think you know the cost Closer and closer To the end Find yourself at doors that lead to nowhere Deeper and deeper Sinking and drowning Sowing your madness around you and dancing in faith misplaced The last thing that you'll see is a recognizable face One who watches One who creeps One who makes the virgins weep Kings of Sorrow King of Drought Plague and Agony drooling from his mouth Down and down. You pierce the darkness Through and through To find yourself Give to it your hearts desire Take from it your rightful place Worm Watching every minute creep by as you squirm Worm Digging in the earth for treasure burying yourself You ******* Worm Asking for powers and knowledge divine The gift of this wisdom is know you are mine

The best flattery comes from this affection I see the way you come alive You wouldn't believe my lies but love the misdirection the truth is I don't know why Get enough of me for only just a moment I'll disappear in front of your eyes I'm a sycophant slowly forgotten when honesty blends with the lies Can you tell me of all your favorite memories The moments that we all have left behind Living in the past. Holding on to All the feelings That we want to I'm impressed by Your conviction Holding on to Something missing Tell me truthfully did you ever believe me when I said that I want to see you fly Tell me honestly did all of the instructions to follow just pass you by I'm inanimate I've lost the will to conquer for you I'll lose to thousand times Its a motive and poorly was it hidden I'm bleeding out to make you mine Can we sunder, all decisions, separate them, from our visions I've begun to think that slowly we succumb to it the difference in indifference and just saying we are done with it the truth it hides in many lies I can't decide to trust my eyes the voice inside it screams to try but when I speak my words sound weak I lose my footing on the peak I tumble down and hit the ground my confidence cannot be found I just wonder From this blunder Was it made up Can we make up I'm not holding But not giving I'm not scolding You're forgiven Tell me one more time. What's your favorite lie I'll sing you to sleep with cherry picked words that sound deep until you see my frown and sugar coated candy crown

I've opened one too many doors inside this labyrinth of my mind I've seen the birth and death of light in endless dark I will reside I see the truth as sharpened knives to bleed the eyes from shameless pigs I see the coffins filled to brims and all the graves we have to dig I watched the heavens turn to ash and gazed upon the empty throne and as the burning angels fell I realized I felt at home a fitting end to holy tomes a burning city kin to Rome and as through concrete flowers grow the seeds of chaos will be sown The sea it turns from red to black the sky applauds its thunders clap from whence we came we shall go back into our saviors endless trap Pursuit of peace no shame be known as wisely told by three blind crones and all the secrets we'd be shown to break the cage we've much outgrown And now upon the lofty sands we stand together hand in hand and to sing of battles long and gory remembering  our hard fought glory The venom seeps, the fangs that shred, the warm embrace of those thought dead, the sons of evil took their toll, the sun is dark, the jester folds And when the end has had its run we flee to halls and fill with *** and give the praise to those we've lost to see this day but at what cost For now they leave but never gone the tale of Gods will still live on they said our God's have met their end but see they lied they rise again
