Those darker days came around and left me spiraling out of control. More often then not, my finger hovered over your contact but my pride wouldn't let me call for anything. When you tell me you love me, I feel my chest tightening because I can't maintain a normal heart rate. You give me anxiety. Every time you walk away, I step an inch further off this cliff. You think I don't care when I shut down but that's me stopping myself from self destructing. You destroy me in the best way possible, I just can't understand how you did it. It's almost like you found the key to my pandora box. I need your voice. I miss your touch. I want you here. Your kisses make me lose my breath, but I crave them after each and every one. I don't know how you do it. I can't control these feelings I have for you even though I should. So when you ask me what did I come back for, my reason is obvious. I have no control.

I haven’t eaten in days and my blood pressure is steadily spiraling downward. Inconsistent pulsation behind my eyes keeps me awake throughout the nights. What is wrong with me? Why am I like this? Repeated questions runs laps but I can’t grasp this concept of normality or whatever you may refer to as modern culture. So as a result, I suffer. I don’t think like you do. Loving is confusing because I’m not even sure what it means to me, if it’s even right for me. My mind is as complicated as an ***** with the wrong valves. Sure, I feel something, but in a different aspect of emotional volume. The same energies flows through me, but I’m not sure of how to let it all out the way you would. It’s almost like trying to solve a Rubik’s cube while colorblind. Maybe this is what I’m here for; Trying to find a way to smile while experiencing low levels of confidence. But I manage and no one thinks anything of the lonely days and empty nights. I can’t find my humanity. Im always trying to escape the truth of knowing that there’s nothing better. Maybe I’m a psychopath. Maybe I don’t fit in with the crowd. Whatever it is knows me better than I seem to know myself. But no one listens. So what do I do when they don’t hear the cries? Give up begging for help or just deal with the agony? Never mind for now, reality is fading away once again. I can get lost in my mind for a little while now and not worry about anything, Because by the time someone hears the cries, it’ll be too late.

Like the last fire ember keeping is warm For it is our only chance to survive Fading Like a generation of people Killing rather than nurturing Fading Like a little boy's life Running away from his future As his past haunts him And he cannot escape Fading Substance is the only way for him to get away Pain is the only emotion he feels Fading Physical abuse wearing him down Weeping his way to sleep Fading Food doesn't come often Blatant neglect turns to crime Fading Empty, cuffed in the backseat On the road to his new life Fading Jumpsuits were his only wardrobe Though 3 meals a day were beneficial Fading In need of substance once again Craving was intended this time Fading Lying there, cold No more pain to feel now Fading As the sun behind the ocean New life beyond the clouds Fading Like footsteps on the shore Never to come back again

Fading
I can admit, In the end I didn't love you to my fullest potential That's probably why I keep writing about how much I miss you How it could be all way better if I was still with you Now I'm just wondering if I'll ever have the chance again to kiss you Because loving you always stays afloat up in my mental But maybe it just wasn't enough, maybe I was too gentle Now I'm feeling more guilty because you're saying you're resentful But none of this would've happened if we would've just continued So when you leave, can you take all of the pain with you Because my soul hurts, and when you leave that's when the pain hits you I never knew being in love was such a big issue But now my heart is crying out, and I think I need a tissue

Change of Heart
Adventurous thoughts of love died last year As new beginnings emerge Like a rose through concrete, avoiding any and every obstacle Fate so ever more precious Let me explore your mind through the deepest realms of your world I wanna view your most horrific nightmares and luminous dreams Let me touch your soul The sacred barrier to your heart And leave you with an extraordinary feeling, one you'd diminish yourself if ever forgotten Let us trade visions so you can see how beautiful you are In my eyes, you hold the pedestal and that could never be taken from you Let me define love to you, something other men can't quite get right Yet I've found the perfect way, and would be thrilled to show you

Lust isn't blind You come over for a reason Maybe your insecurities are guiding you away from him Or maybe it's your mind telling your heart otherwise The simple things can't show you what you want in life Maybe that's why you're here with me This excitement of spontaneity gives you a thrill that's influencing you You've never experienced anything like it But it feels so right And when you leave you realize I'm not your boyfriend

Lust isn't Blind
We’re gonna save the kissing for something real These are just temporary emotions They'll go away once you leave And then I usually forget you until next time comes around It's seems so real though The sweat and tension brings it alive Maybe it's what we crave out of each other I've felt this way before It's hard to come across because it's internally deep And I sometimes I get lured in so far These feelings can't be real But my heart is getting itself involved This is what's confusing me You never get the real feeling until it's gone Maybe I've been blind from the start It seems the benefits aren't all I wanted Maybe all along, I've simply wanted you

Maybe
You can't break something that is already broken And you can't hurt someone who has no feelings Being numb is how I live Catastrophes don't phase me You don't phase me I don't take it personal anymore Love is like a business If you get your feelings involved, you won't last Only the strong survive You can't even bare half of what I've been through Girl, I've been through it all Being cheated on by the love of your life might give you a meltdown And getting ran out on something you thought was special might leave you crazed Yet this is only the beginning And I'm still here Now I don't have anything inside me Sooner or later, the game will have you I've been through it, and then learned it You'll learn it consumes you Either play the game, or get played It happens to everyone

No Love
I made love to her through you That's why I kept my eyes closed Biting my tongue to keep the screams of her name inside Her love has its own category, separating her from other women Her touch is poised with a residue so potent, you get lost into her universe The way she moves hypnotizes my mind, it incinerates my vision of any other love Her kisses are lifeless, but they absorb your soul She's inevitable So when I close my eyes, be sure to know she has my life in her hands

Absorbed
I’ve realized the hardest thing to do is to let go of something you love But if the one who loves you keeps hurting you then why stay? Sure you feel like they hold the key to your heart But what are you getting other than pain? Love is the most dangerous drug You never see it coming, but feel it the most when it's too late Some people allow it to takeover their life And they then believe the disrespect and negligence is the only way to find love But you've never gotten love so everything in your eyes represents it You don't know what satisfies you other than being with someone Maybe that's why your feelings take their own course
