English Just your average emotionally unstable teenager. Writings an escape.
It follows you It seems almost impossible to break free From its cruel, hateful grasp You think you've escaped it But again it captures you More tight and securely than before Once again you are trapped In the hands of a monster You paint lines on your arms In a wonderful shade of red To prove to yourself and those around you Your pain is as real as any other emotion Any other feeling Its alive, more alive than you have been for a long time And you can feel something once again The pleasurable sting of the crimson sea Making its way to shore On your virginal white skin Now stained with scarlet puddles Or the food you made such an effort to consume When it makes a reappearance Its swimming inside the lavatory You are no longer just empty in your soul But also in your stomach, a body part you despise, with such a burning passion. You may poison yourself in many other ways, in attempt to slay this beast Like a medication, to ease the pain and discomfort Pills and liquor, *** and love making Also take the edge off for a little while And a little while is a whole lot better than nothing at all But its not enough Its still got you

The Monster
Its just gone ten and everything seems fine But beneath the surface, part of me want's to die My life is being wasted, and I'm on fifteen All around me is darkness That tries so hard to convince me, it can not be seen That the world is fine and dandy, that there are so many possibilities For me A whole world out there for me to explore If only it was that easy That I would adore There's so much I want for myself I have ambition and passion pouring out of my, oh so damaged soul But it isn't dandy, and it isn't fine Its so ******* full of pain So draining, its draining out, the little sunshine that still lurks inside of me Part of me see's how monstrous this planet is And part of me falls for its act Its so confusing And frustrating I feel like i'm spinning Further and further out of control Out of knowing anything about anything Out of reality
