For years & years I fought myself Breaking for air in a raging sea That violently slashes me, drags me down To a place so dark it will make you blind. One day I found floating debris And clung for dear life in the darkest sea. I thought that moment that I was safe, That piece of scrap was solid ground But I ignored the fact that I was lost, Still lost in the drubbing waves. For years I've been floating on false pretenses, Believe I am completely well But my safe haven is withering away And I'm struggling again against the thrashing waves. I was never free, and now I'm back In my deepest troubles and loudest yells I'm drowning again and I'm tasting defeat I'm not sure how much longer I can fight the sea And soon I'm sure I'll succumb to the screams But at least then I'll finally be free.

Sea
Wrap your arms around my waist, Allow my troubles to be erased. With tender words, ease my ears And wash away all these fears Of no success and a life alone Where forever I'll remain unknown. Show me that at least to you, I'm not a crazy, nagging shrew. I want a future with a life. Maybe a lover, or maybe a wife. Just make me yours and cure my fears And we'll have no worries for dozens of years. So pull me tight into your chest. Please let my worries have a rest. Kiss my head & stroke my hair, Be the answer to my lifelong prayer.

Comfort
When the world is falling apart And you only want a new start Close your eyes, oh close your eyes Clear your head of all the lies Take a deep breath in, breath in Accept all of your sins, all of your sins And start anew Ignore the ones that throw you down Find new friends to hang around Leave behind your old regrets Throw out all of your cigarettes And start anew, start anew Get out of the blue and start anew When you only want to be alone And your heart feels like a heavy stone Have no fear to shed your tears Ignore the comments of your peers And tomorrow when morning arrives Just remember that you survived. Ignore the ones that throw you down Find new friends to hang around Leave behind your old regrets Throw out all of your cigarettes And start anew, start anew Get out of the blue and start anew So when your sky is falling, falling And you’re reduced to crawling, crawling Stand up tall and breathe in And march forward with a giant grin Ignore the ones that throw you down Find new friends to hang around Leave behind your old regrets Throw out all of your cigarettes And start anew, start anew Get out of the blue and start anew And start anew Start anew Anew

Anew
The future has been around for hundreds of years Shadowed in doubt and shadowed in fears But when the upcoming becomes the past We find the answers to what we’ve asked. We learn our meaning and find our desires, We mend our wounds and start new fires, We discover friends and hear their requests, We accept new jobs and are paid in stress. The future, for decades has been the same A test for humans, a waiting game.  The future becomes present, and soon - past Always answering what we once have asked. The only variable to change in years Are the answers determined by our peers. So do not fret for what is not now The future is only what you allow.

The Future
There's a magical place with a special glow Where only certain people with skill can go. It's in front of your eyes but buried deep and it's best to visit when your eyes crave sleep. It's name is so special and known to a few but those who do love it through and through. It's most commonly known as the YouTube vortex as it enters your eyes and connects to your cortex with crazy topics like cannibals and cat to baffling ideas and llamas with hats. There's no telling what you'll find each day, but the YouTube vortex will never become cliche.

Always
I rather be normal and healthy Than ever rich and wealthy. I'm tired of sickness and disease And by the time I'm 20, I'll have no knees. I've had a cyst, and now I have a tumor But at least nothing's stolen my sense of humor. At a single time, I had three threatening ailments  I'm like a train on the tracks racing towards derailment. I usually eat healthy and I run everyday, So why are am I always needing another x-ray? I'm a walking death trap, waiting to die But at this point, I don't know why. I'm invincible but dying So I'm sitting here sighing And enjoying the irony Of being dead, but also alive.

I Am Dying
I loved you, I loved you With my whole being Until my eyes started seeing. You held my heart with tender care, And looked in my eyes with a loving stare. For months it was love and it was true, But I began to notice a change in you. Your tender care began to pass And you left my heart laying in the grass. Yet in your steps you remained staring But under it all was a mysterious glaring. You began to fade and acted fake And inside me, I began to wake. I gave you my all, my all, my all But maybe that's not exactly what you saw. You forgot my heart on the ***** grass, And it wasn't an action that I let pass. I picked it up with love and care All while maintaining our curious stare. So in the end, when you broke the gaze It was okay that we split our ways. I expected it then, and nothing less. In the end it was a pathetic mess.

The Return
We all grow and look for inspirations To help us live and build foundations But we live in such a dying place That very few can even fill that space. Our society is crumbling, our society is dying, It's why all the children stay awake crying. They lack in a model, they lack in support, It's why all our youth just ends up in court. Their foundations are crumbling from unstable ground When their only desire is to be safe and sound.

Inspirations to Our Foundations
To be in his mind, she has to be resigned she must be blind or her love will be always declined. He has to be your only sight, night and day he will be right never wrong, in the slight. A man of such complications full of false accusations needing so many explanations, needs just as many confrontations . A man of these ways, should spend all of his days alone where he lays, as his body decays.
