I've tried to make this work before i go But baby oh how can i say goodbye, I have so much emotion fluttering through the air right now, Let me just say goodbye, and sever this tie we have. I'm telling you goodnight and forever today. The words i haven't said to you, is the true meaning behind what I actually am feeling, Baby don't cry. I'm filled with words that don't mean anything to you, I'm not the one you won't, and it's pretty clear. So why don't i just say goodbye? Well hear it is, goodnight and forever. I'm breaking up with you, severing the little trust we had, And as my heart bursts into fire I'll let you go and do me, the actual me i Intended, so one last time, I'm saying goodbye And a goodnight.

To Sever the Tie.
Here's to all the broken hearts there could be, She told me it was all the time we spent, how she could say she loves me but walk out the door, going to see that boy, but that's okay cause I know she'll be coming home to be in my arms. I feel my heart slowly shutting off, every time she leaves, but i can't help but to say goodbye. I tell my self to let it be, let her have her fun and games, This song stuck on repeat to the same old games we used to play. I'm no longer the one in first place. This makes we wonder if i ever was a player or rather yet just a spectator. It's okay let it be right? I'll play blind while you think i haven't a clue to as what your really doing. Hey, that's okay cause the truth will be on my side, and when you falter and look for that embrace ill be the first to leave, cause truly I know I'm not the only one you share that love with. Leave it alone again, hah okay? I'll do just that and show you the way to my door, and when you don't leave I'll just go, and just disappear. Drop the car in gear and go my own way, like we never knew each others names at all. Here's to all the broken hearts there could be, She told me it was all the time we spent, how she could say she loves me but walk out the door, going to see that boy, but that's okay cause I know she'll be coming home to be in my arms. I feel my heart slowly shutting off, every time she leaves, but i can't help but to say goodbye.

Stuck on You
How hard it is to believe in thou, when thou distrusts themselves, nor the spoken word that departs from my own maimed mouth. You maimed it though, feeding thou as if a baby, but your brutality hence forth separated us and no longer are we a conjoined twin but rather yet two separate beings, who wish upon the same midnight star. Speak up! For the world has stopped on it's axis to welter in you privy affair. Accustomed to thy nature, a forest of hindering branches you portray as home, nether the less yielding you furthermore from where your actual origin bellows. Banished thee, as of criminal intent, but thou victim, and victim thought of thou to be innocent.. then why banished? I ponder thee..

Poor Serendipity
Minutes to midnight mock me with a vicarious sneer, they jump from the clock and swivel through my room. They paint my name with markers made out of a point that cuts me, drawing my blood for their own canvas. But the walls cannot bear the weight so they crumble leaving me exposed, I'm the target to a terrorist that doesn't even exist. I've counted my sheep, but even they got tired and fell asleep, leaving me alone. In my own fear I reach for the bottle and take that pill. Never once questioning for a refill. Tonight never wanted to be, so I turn and breathe out my last breathe of hope I so gingerly hold on to. Wishing to die, without a tear I cry, staining what's left remaining.

Rumination
Hold me in your tight embrace as the saddened November rains begin to pour, You see I'm only safe if I'm right here by your side, this I do not confide. It's just sometimes I feel like I'm on my own, with having to fight for my own, but yet I'm still so young and things just seem so far away. It's hard to imagine, but this world has me, and has me good. And so I let the rain soak every inch of skin exposed hoping to absorb as much of it as I can in order to drown out my lies I so easily lay upon your mind. Hold me in your tight embrace as the saddened November rains begin to pour, I'll hold on as long as I can, but patients is not one of my virtues. It's just that simple how I let you go, even when it was crystal clear you were near. Even till this day I catch myself singing our song, I stop myself only to be interrupted by this chorus playing out of tune, and the beat so far from on the dot. To know you were true was a joke at the time, but know I sometimes wish I could have you back, but thinking of that only hurts. So I forget.. And just leave it at that, cause wishes never come true.

Wishes Never Come True
Mama once told me, Child were only grains of sand and this world we live in is but a shining tipping glass. She told me never to be scared when things aren't always what them seem, 'cause time is a such mysterious  thing. Even at night I'd sit on my bed praying that things would turn out just okay, and daddy wouldn't have to be gone. But mama always told me, child were only grains of sand and this world we live in is but a shining tipping glass. After all mama would never lie, she said she'd hold me safe till the day she died, and in fact that is what she did. I just wish I could see mama one last time.

Mama's Words
My mind painted a picture of you, You danced in circles as you cried to the sky. Your voice traveled the land in waves, the echos shuttered the land and the trees fell. I listened closely to the sounds of this largess nature, But alas I turn up with nothing but an empty hand. My mind painted a picture of you, standing there half blistered from the feverish sun, you melted. I tried as I could to catch the drops from underneath, and scoop the ashes from the discarding wind. Hold me my shadowed beauty, Trick me not, for I'll believe. Truth in fact you actually were never there. My mind painted a picture of you, rebuilt a hundred times, but never as close as the real you could be. Tantalized by your beauty I can't but follow your trails, For your overwhelming. I'm consumed by an everlasting love, In which lover was never there. Distraught I find means to still.. hold.. on.
