Oh that I live
I live and I live and I live
But what is this living?
When you are at home
And no ones life is on the line
Least of all your own
I want to feel alive
Not just be living
I want to break bones
Before they grow brittle
I dont want to limp along
I never want to grow old
I want to run forever
To be remembered
To hurt the cruel
And dance with the dejected
Make every day feel my breath
Everyone hear my heartbeat
As it slams through my chest
Oh that I am alive
But so rarely living

Ba ***
I feel the beat
Ba ***
Its everywhere
From my shaking mind
To my broken heart
And my bleeding fingers
It is constant
Reminding me of what I've done
Keeping me present
When I want to break
To shatter
Curl in a ball
On the floor of the train
Going nowhere
Going home.
Ba ***

You make me so mad
And I just want to shout
Make you respect me
I want to feel dangerous
Let my heart grow hard
So I threaten to fight you
Stand up real tall
I could cause some damage
I'm ruthless in truth
Oh but you won't will you
You just start to laugh
And you call me short
A pitiable 5"3
You're a big strong man
You couldn't hit me
I'm just a girl
Just a girl
Just?

Sometimes I think
I was the one made
After a long day
Once God had long been finished
His sixth gin and tonic
Then I think - Wait
I'm an athiest

Good god my man
Do you want me to love you?
Throw myself at the ivory base
Of your precious little pedestal?
Well good luck with that one
You sweet confused child
Who hardens the wretched knot
Forever squeezing my chest
Strangling my heart and lungs
Don't play with me any longer
I'm trying my god **** hardest
To grow my young bones up
To wake up alone and proud
To be able to turn around

In that moment
When he looked at her
She seemed small
Like a child
Sweet and innocent
Well loved
But then
She turns her head
Away from him
And the shining metel
Embedded in her face
Catches the light
The dark under her eyes
Pulls him in
Like a black hole
The sweet child in her
Is replaced
By her cold hard shield.

Words words words
Will they never suffice
William Shakespeare
Could create me a world
With nothing at all
But his malleable words
And next to him
I am but a bumbling fool
Destined to suffer
While you smile
And toss your charm about
Like yesterdays trash
If I had command
Of my twisting tongue
And bruised red lips
I would make you fall in love
With nothing but my pretty
Words words words.

My daddy told me
As I reached for another
Cinnamon heart
A moment on the lips
A lifetime on the hips
I still don't know what to think...
I might laugh it off
Or maybe get upset
Most likely I'll nod
And think about a time
When you would love me
Unconditionally

One day
You tell me
We'll run away
That's what you say
I don't trust you
Your promise
Already broken
Already gone
If we were to run
Where could we go
No car no train
No **** money
Weighing down our pockets
Empty we would roam
And alone I'd go
Alone to go home.

We can hardly walk
Not now-ever?
Our guts are splitting
Our smiles taking over
Like little green army men
Bent on victory
Was there ever a time?
A splatter of moments
A twinkling age
when we weren't laughing
When the slightest provoke
Had us gasping for air
Everything in this simple world
Has my head spinning
So much delight
Secreted in hat boxes
Fading on shelves
At our grandparents homes
There's nothing alike
The nothingness in my skull
The loose grasp on decorum
You silly boy.
