*Isn't it ironic, how we tell others to stay strong, yet we cant do it ourselves? Everyone seems to think I am the “master” at solving problems but, I can't even figure out how to solve my own…*

Ironic
Blue is a calm guitar song at ten o'clock at night Red is removed doorknobs and bad communication Blue is philosophical, realistic and active Red is short-tempered and worked to the bone Blue is a happy, neat family Red is a messy, broken, and betrayed family Blue is a place of quiet serenity Red is a place of guilt and annoyance Blue is rumored to be sick and evil Red is rumored to be crazy Blue is a stable income Red is locked up safe I trust Blue I trust Red Where do I go?

Blue or Red?
I'll never know unless I'm taught. So, teach me how to dance. Teach me how to knit. Teach me how to fish. Teach me how to cook. Teach me how to clean. Teach me how to draw. Teach me how to play a game. Teach me how to talk properly. Teach me how to follow instructions. But if you teach me that if I go anywhere but with you I'll die, I won't listen. We all know it isn't true.

Don't Be a Downer
One thing Standing in place of another Making you have to think more And confusing most If we stopped letting things Symbolize something else Maybe things would make more sense To everyone Maybe the loss of metaphors Would provide more explanations In a world of bewilderment And cruelty

Metaphors
All through life Society tells us To use our words Yet they represent us Through numbers To them we are Social Security numbers Credit/Debit Card numbers Part of a statistic Or demographic Measuring our Height And weight Our Grade Point Averages Our IQ Our Age Yet they dare tell us that our most Powerful And influential tools Are our words

Numbers
How come other people's love Causes me depression? How come when I see a couple kissing it Makes my lip quiver How come break-up songs aren't sad to me All I can think is that at least they've experienced love

Jealousy
Real friends don't let you hide your emotions from them Real friends don't let you give them the silent treatment Real friends don't judge when you're acting crazy Real friends don't disappear when someone else comes along Real friends don't join in rumor-spreading Real friends don't ignore you for the rest of the clique Real friends don't walk away when you're most vulnerable Real friends don't let you sit alone Real friends don't pick others over you Real friends don't exist

Real Friends
Floating by Going through the motions So little time left No point in a change now how much longer 'til my head explodes? A few days could push my limit Hollow-out feeling increasing every minute Never-ending out of body experience Eating me alive One bite at a time
