We take
And we we take
And we take all your stuff
But never too much
We only take just enough
First your hope
Then your dreams
Then your joy
Then your trust
But don't worry too much
All that we take
We replace
With cheap substitutes
And ruin
And waste
And for everything else
Your depression
Your grief
Your loss of all hope
Your tainted beliefs
Your mistrust
Paranoia
Your inconsolable fear
We've got a pill for it all
In fact
Your first dose is right here

Walking seems
Seems like a good idea sometimes
Till your walking
and you see
And you see the edge and decide
Decide
Decide
Decide to fly
Breathing
could be
Could be harder than you would like
If the airs too thick and stagnant
Stagnant air inside
Inside
Inside
The air's too thick here inside
So we're all gasping
And clinging
And sticking to one another
Not breathing
Not flying
We're all dying
We're all dying
Sometimes I think that I know
what your thinking
Sometimes I think that I know
what to say
Sometimes I pretend that Im not
so ******* lonely
Sometimes I pretend that I'm really ok
I'm not ok (I'm not ok)
I AM this way (I AM this way)
This way I'll stay (But it's okay)
Cuz we're all gasping
And clinging
And sticking to one another
Not breathing
We're all dying
And clinging
And sticking to one another
Not breathing
Not flying
Not flying
We're all dying
All dying
We are all
All
already dead

When dreams are more real than reality
I sleep the day away
But darkness still brings nightmares
So come nightfall
I depart my bed to play

A long time ago my Happiness was taken from me
They dragged it away kicking and screaming
They took it and they locked it up in solitary confinement
No trial
No jury
It was meant to be a life sentence
For a while I just accepted this
I told myself there was nothing I could do
Then one day I decided that was ********
This was my Happiness and I was getting it back
So I went to the place where it was imprisoned and searched
Eventually I found the dark and dank cell where they put my Happiness
With a little effort I was able to pick the lock
And finally let it free
I rushed in to greet my old friend
But to my dismay I discovered it had changed
My Happiness was locked up in total darkness
All alone
For so long…
It had become Insanity

All our lives they've been telling us
What's right
What's wrong
Stuck, in our heads like a song
They tell us to have faith
To shut up and just believe
But what the f--k is faith
And who the f--k are they
They try
Pushing us down unlit paths
Then punishing those who stray
But the great ones
Are those who challenge them
And walk another way
They tell us to have faith
To shut up and just believe
But why ask us for our faith
When they're lying through their teeth
Greatness is to walk away
When the demons in priests' clothing
Are begging us to stay

Keep saying you don't want it
I like when you lie
Keep saying you dont want it
I like when you cry
My little snowglobe
Love to shake you up
Then watch the chaos inside
Do you hate me yet
Yeah, it's better this way
You hate me, yet
You still let me stay
My little snowglobe
Does it hurt your ears
When I tap on the glass
Arguing in the car last night
My foot hard on the gas
Probably shouldn't drive so hard
When it's raining so fast
My little snowglobe
Did it hurt when you cracked
It hurt me too
It hurt me too
It hurt me too
I want you back

We crossed paths again today
But how I saw him seemed to change
I noticed the fine details
And wrote them on this page
He's wearing filthy rags
Of pure gold
His hair matted and clumped
Is beaded with pearls
His ***** unkept beard
Hides rubies in every curl
His face, covered in dirt
Is kind and aesthetic
His callused and scarred hands
Have never formed a fist
His body is thin but strong
His voice is kind and gentle
People part when he passes
They move far away
They ridicule and hiss and scorn
Disgusted faces that they all make
They talk in hushed whispers
As they point and stare
I can barely stand to see this
But he doesn't seem to care
Today I walked beside him
Just to feel his pain
But what I felt was peacefulness
That feeling was so strange

On a cold clear night, a dream
A dream of thirty-seven
Thirty-seven thin figures stand
Upon a smooth white plain
That glistens like purest sand
There bodies completely still
Yet long auburn hair dances
Lightly back and forth
As if under water
Though these delicate figures wear all white
What they harbor remains unknown
Are they angels, bearing gifts of love and life......
Twelve months they whisper
First once then twice
.....Or malevolent beings
Bringing forth illness and tragedy
Twelve months they whisper
Now ceaselessly
Awake, oh bright beautiful morning
Sun shining through the still drawn shades
Downstairs loved ones waiting
To celebrate this speacial day
Upon the kitchen table
A pure white cake
Thirty-seven candles all aflame
Loved ones gather round
To sing aloud
Happy, happy birthday

It's not the first time
And it won't be the last time
That mistakes are made

There's is nothing as beautiful as a beautiful face
Tall
Thin
Radiant skin.
A face like no other
And eyes like the sky
Physical beauty in every way
Then we locked eyes
For only an instant
But it seemed all that I needed.
As a vain grin stretched outward
And screamed
I'm cocky, conceded!
I'm better than you because I was born this way
I have eyes like the sky, and a statuesque face
A body that's thin with curves in all the right places.
She saw me, enamored
And it humored her
And just as quickly my thoughts of her changed
There is nothing beautiful about a beautiful face
Unless there's a heart twice a big
With humility,
Grace.
