It's so easy to be an angry, emotional child Dark thoughts filled inside you, running wild Hating the world, hating yourself Pushing good memories to the back of the shelf Want to sink in the mud, and hide your face away From the worried looks they give you every day Some call you strong for surviving this long But I think they might all be singing the wrong song Anyone can sit there and be double sided Be depressed in the dark, and in the light hide it But the ones who are strongest are the ones who fight Who refuse the demons, by day or by night Our moods come and go, but they don't define us It's more than just what we show to outsiders.

Never Strong
There it is again That face; Those eyes; That smile; Those teeth It shows up in my dreams It follows and watches me It will pop out at any moment There it is again That laugh The one that haunts me It sounds like a witch concocting her poison It makes its presence known when I make a mistake That hideous cackle I think it laughs at my pain...and my fright There it is again Those hands The ones that grab me and hold me back The ones that pull my hair, Caress my face like a toy Those hands with scars and bruises Cuts and blood cover them The hands that hold the knife I fear my blood is next There it is again It never leaves me It haunts me in my sleep It haunts me in the day It loves to see me in pain I cannot get away There it is again It will never leave

There It Is Again
You tell me this is your last goodbye And the tears begin to fill my eyes The pen and paper, your only escape From the dark world you encounter every day You tell me about the things you do And although I know not what you go through It breaks my heart, and I die inside Is this the only way that you survive? I make you promises foolishly And when I lay my head to sleep Its YOU who haunts my thoughts and dreams My ruined pillow soaked with tears My heart racing with new fears But not for me, for YOU my friend The one who’s life should not yet end My soul is screaming, hurting, crying For the one that’s slowly dying Too many dreams for us as friends I’m not ready for this to end How often do I say I love you? You say you know, but I don’t think you do You’re the one who’s made life bright The northern star shining in the night The rare beauty in a field of dirt But also the one who’s been hurt I think back to that rainy day I played guitar and sat and sang You smiled at me from over there But inside was brimming with despair I didn’t know the thoughts on your mind I couldn’t make it better that time But here, you’ve taken over my life You’re in my thoughts from day to night I wish there was something I could do To make the whole world love you To the one who makes life better Here is your own love letter This here is my final battle cry For you alone, I’d give up my life Don’t underestimate my love’s power I cry for you this very hour If you leave, I’ll miss you when you’re gone PLEASE…don’t leave me here alone….

A Suicide Note For You
You tell me this is your last goodbye And the tears begin to fill my eyes The pen and paper, your only escape From the dark world you encounter every day You tell me about the things you do And although I know not what you go through It breaks my heart, and I die inside Is this the only way that you survive? I make you promises foolishly And when I lay my head to sleep Its YOU who haunts my thoughts and dreams My ruined pillow soaked with tears My heart racing with new fears But not for me, for YOU my friend The one who’s life should not yet end My soul is screaming, hurting, crying For the one that’s slowly dying Too many dreams for us as friends I’m not ready for this to end How often do I say I love you? You say you know, but I don’t think you do You’re the one who’s made life bright The northern star shining in the night The rare beauty in a field of dirt But also the one who’s been hurt I think back to that rainy day I played guitar and sat and sang You smiled at me from over there But inside was brimming with despair I didn’t know the thoughts on your mind I couldn’t make it better that time But here, you’ve taken over my life You’re in my thoughts from day to night I wish there was something I could do To make the whole world love you To the one who makes life better Here is your own love letter This here is my final battle cry For you alone, I’d give up my life Don’t underestimate my love’s power I cry for you this very hour If you leave, I’ll miss you when you’re gone PLEASE…don’t leave me here alone….

I look up and look at you, out of the corner of my eyes. Its easy just to watch you and let the time fly by. As I sit and watch you, I think about the past. I think about the thing we had, and how I thought that it would last. I thought that I was special and meant so much to you. Although you said you liked me, your actions told the truth. I gave you my something special, and then you broke my heart. Who knew that a boy like you, would rip my world apart? I regret giving up on you. I guess I’ll always want you again. Because your face always haunts me when it pops up in my head. So I sit her in class, and watch everything you do. I don’t think you’ll ever understand how much I love you.

YOU
Skipping records; Deja Vu I just can’t get over you E’erone says I ought not to Fall for you tricks again My heart, by you, ‘s been broke before My body shaking from the slammed door Red blood, all mine, spilled on the floor And will happen again That silly word that was all mine When heard it always filled my mind And my soul with butterflies Because I heard the passion in your voice We played this game not long ago You kissed my head and held me close You mended me before I broke From being intoxicated with you Shaking in this desolit place Vertical lines streaked down my face My heart pounding, but I lost the race The last time I trusted you Skipping records; Deja Vu I don’t like the things you do My beating heart, you rip in two And I’ll go back to you again Skipping records; Deja Vu I just can’t get over you I hate the fact that I love you And that will never end

Revolve and Rotate
I feel my life is passing by Every time I close my eyes The world around me moves; it changes My friends and family become strangers Everything I thought I was Passes with the setting sun "Who am I?" I often think "What am I? Who will I be?" I change as quickly as the seasons With little rhyme or reason And tomorrow I do not know Where I'll be; where I'll go They batter me with constant questions If not pleased, they give suggestions I try so hard to please them all Do they build me up to watch me fall? So much out there to explore I want to learn it all before I am old awaiting death I wanna live while I still have breath A doctor? Singer? Or a writer? National Geographic Photographer? Too many options not enough time College will make me lose my mind There's only one thing I want to be and do And that's be me and love on YOU

So What Now?
Out there; searching Looking; breathing But not for you Breathing; yearning For something bigger The light. The Truth It's been too long Dear old friend I need you back here again Life is dry The fish need water Breathing but no oxygen It was a whole season I forced the void closed But my face hit the dirt I am a dreamer Thought this would last forever But "forever" always hurts Running faster now For my life My past comes and haunts me This time It shall not win For I am no longer empty I feel things filling Pressure building I soon shall explode Overwhelming Everlasting Forever changed by your love

Searching
Ewww Look at you You disgusting little girl Your hair’s a mess Greasy; pimply; ugly Teeth not white enough Eyebrows too thin Makeup done wrong Just give up already Walk to the mirror, tubby Your thighs too large Your arms flabby They say your skinny Who believes them? You don’t eat some days You say you’re not hungry Plus, it’s too “mainstream” You love food That’s your problem Think back on today ***** You yell at them You think your life is so hard You make theirs miserable Ruin what little happiness they have Worst sister ever Why should they ever love you? You don’t even know what love is! You think you do You don’t You ruined another friendship You thought you were in love. Ha! You ruin everything You’ve ruined yourself Arms out Wrists up Examine the scars Anger and hurt Permanently displayed Scars; burns; signs The world can see Just another ******* statistic You like that, hipster? Didn’t think so Oh the labels Do you want to be classified? Hipster; depressed; hippie; cutter How do those even go together? You confuse people You don’t even know what you are What you want What you want to be You wear your heart on your sleeve You dress like a freak Outrageous clothes Stupid hair Trying to make an impression? Make people remember you? It’s working And not in a good way Are you crying? Wipe the tears from your eyes, you baby You cry over everything The last 48 hours And yet you smile You disgust me You hide it All too well Are you faking the tears for attention? Or are you just plain manipulative? Manipulative of yourself Your thoughts; feelings Disgusting Oh, stop crying over him! It’s your fault Remember? You broke his heart Like a twig The day you broke up with him You gave up You quitter You were scared of his love Scared of your feelings They weren’t perfect So you ran You’re so messed up You ruin the good things The ONLY good things you have Do you think he’ll want you back? Then another He was a great friend You were scared of him Of the things that made him him You cancelled Again Lies and blames followed Mad at each other You said good bye And because you’re a stubborn *** Don’t apologize Erase him from your memories Cry over what you had And lost You ******* baby Go “escape” You dreamer Escape your reality Dream big Then give up You can’t make it Isn’t that what you always do? Blame him; I see It’s not his fault You just can’t remember You have no motivation No goals You quit too early I can’t stand to look at you You disgust me completely You’re the leftovers The flaws no one had room for ALL wrapped up in you instead You want to be too many things Everything you’re not Can’t just be happy, can you? You want to be the good girl Want approval You want to be the bad girl Drinking Smoking ******* You want to be crazy Not a care in the world You want acceptance You don’t even know You’re greedy Jealous Foolish You clown Stop embarrassing yourself Don’t be proud It’s not nearly good enough Stop trying Maybe one day you’ll get it We hate you We all secretly hate But we hide it because we’re good people There you go Just go cry sweetie Act like everything’s ok You fake You poser You loathful creature I’d hate to be you Oh, wait I am...

She does it to him, he does it to her It was obvious they would both end up hurt She hates the things that he does He doesn't realize what she gives up Constantly worrying; Never trusting; It always ends in pain Messing with each other's head, like it's some sort of game He tells me that he wants to die, She sits in her room and cries But neither one is strong enough Neither one has the guts To do the thing that hurts the most But in the end, will be best for both. They drag us in, make us choose sides And secretly we try to hide We don't want to get involved We've seen the pain that we've caused Stand up, grow up, get some ***** Tell her you're through with it all Tell him you're done with his lies And all the things he tries to hide You can't hurt yourself to save that one Your time together will soon be done You can't always make it work Sometimes you just end up hurt

Hurt
Arms out Wrists up See the scars Burns and cuts Examine the marks The world can see From losing my fight With the enemy You joke around Point at the burns Laughing only Makes things worse Everything temporary Nothing Permanent Our hearts set free Just to get hurt My soul cries out I cannot live Trapped inside This fragile skin If it breaks It be my time For I am not afraid to die
