*I'm stuck in this eddy. And I'm such a poor swimmer.* I get swirled around. Like a little helpless fly caught in a wineglass. Unbeknownst to the drinker. *I'm stuck in this eddy. And I'm such a poor thinker.* I allow my mind to get swashed around... Like a lone sock in the washing machine. Lost without its other. *I'm stuck in this eddy. And I'm such a poor survivor.* So I just submit to the will of the currents. Like an empty bottle. Stuck head down at the neck, in the bathroom floor trap. Sink or float... I can do neither.

Eddy
I don't even want to try But I keep hoping and wishing That someone, somewhere Can somehow, sometime fill this void. It won't be you, I know. For you just make the emptiness More hollow and more painful Now I know better than to wait for nothing. If all this is nothing to you Then you are nothing to me. I'll get a grip on myself And let the emptiness be.

There's an empty vessel It cannot be filled with what it needs I try to fill it with something But it refuses to be filled. Empty words. Empty promises. Empty actions. Make for an empty heart. I've wasted my time Thinking it can be filled But no matter how I tried I keep coming home empty-handed.

Empty Heart
Here I go again Putting my heart on my sleeve I've done this so many times Without learning from the past I get what I want Then they leave me behind I can't put up a show Pretending to be happy Here I go again I've fallen into the abyss Of depression and sadness The pieces of my heart around me I got what I want But I'm left broken... again Once more, they turn their backs On me, leaving me with my tears. Here I go again Wallowing in madness My heart has been shattered Yet again, I'll duct tape it. Can someone fix me I want to be whole again Let me be in one piece Let me be whole again. Here I go again Picking myself up Trying to be strong Trying to carry on I got what I want Forget the rest Put a fake smile on my face When inside, I'm shattering to pieces.

Again
Here I sit with no one But my thoughts The room is silent Yet, I hear so much noise.

My Mind
My body ached I felt bruised Stretched to the limits I felt physically abused. My insides were moved To different locations It felt unreal It was a surreal sensation. My back hurt My bones shifted I felt sick The pain persisted. I felt like being ripped From the inside out They watched and waited As I continued to shout. Oh! The pain! Oh! The discomfort! I lay there out of breath As I pushed with all my effort. One last great push It will soon end I screamed I shouted Then stillness Silence fell My head plopped back I felt like I was under a spell. The silence was broken By a piercing wail It sounded like an angel And you were unveiled. Nothing ached anymore There you are My little angel My little shining star.

Surreal
To deny me is to hurt me. To deny me is to break my heart into a tiny million shards of glass To deny me is to turn your back on me To deny me is to pretend that I don't exist Because when you deny me, you are closing the door on me and opening a window to let the others' ray of light shine on you instead. To deny me is to deprive me of smiles. To deny me is to shatter my ego. To deny me is to step on my confidence. To deny me is to pretend that I don't exist. Because when you deny me, it means that you want others to give you happiness that I cannot provide myself. To deny me is to pierce my soul. To deny me is to sink me into madness. To deny me is to let my tears flow endlessly. To deny me is to pretend I don't exist. Because when you deny me, you hurt me and break my heart that I have tried so many times to patch up with duct tape.

To Deny Me
I haven't slept for more than a year I can't take a shower Without your cries in my ear. I haven't had Any me-time Because you're clinging To me all the time. But you make me smile When I feel sad You are my rainbow When my day is bad. You are my love My heart My air My little baby whom I care.

One Song (10W)
This is it... I've fallen into something I couldn't get myself out of. There's no looking back I'd be lying to myself If I say, I'd never like you. I might just be stuck in a coma And dreaming this whole thing up But my heart can't lie, I've fallen for you. Here I go again With unrequited love Why do I keep punishing myself? Falling for someone who can't be for me Forcing something to happen When it's an impossibility. At night, my eyes burn With tears of longing to be in your arms At night, I close my eyes and dream Dream about the impossibility That I could ever be for you I hurt knowing the truth. You push me away Yet I keep hurting myself Trying to hold on to the sharp end of the knife. My demented heart, it beats for you But you just let me be Ignoring the fact that there could be ...a possibility...
