But sanity is not statistical my dear..
I just want a reason to cry Maybe that's not it Maybe it's a reason to die I felt like I was worthless All my life But then you came along With a brand new light I followed you around Like the only thing I knew But I guess that's alright Cause the only thing I loved was you And then the light went away I was left lost to be found Isn't that what you did in the first place tho? When you first came around? I couldn't see what I was doing Couldn't see who I was with It must've been my first last day The fourth after the fifth Then my light came back "Trust me I swear..." I couldn't see my choices Like playing truth or dare Share a part of yourself And lose that much more Or take the dare and find out The pain that's in store Maybe I should leave Maybe I should go Maybe I need you more The world will never know But what I know for sure Is that what you did hurt And it's the reason I fall The reason I'm six feet under dirt So maybe I'll die Right before your very eyes The ones that hid all your secrets All your hate fed lies But I can't do that now Because people need me Unlike you Who will always leave me

Cheaters Never Win
An insane man decided to jump Not off a building Or into a lake Merely up and down Within his room He stopped after a while And the nurse came to visit him None of the other patients act quite like you, you are only one of many He replied With the only thing He had ever known But sanity is not statistical my dear.. He pushed aside His bed violently Threw himself At the door Broke his only chair and table Against the wall And as the nurse left the room He threw his only book They had given him Out the door behind her SANITY IS NOT STATISTICAL The nurse ignored it And moved on To the next patient As she opened the door A book came flying at her Its pages were in shreds Later that day Books were turned inside out And ripped apart At the spines For all the patients Found the book To be beautifully tragic But the tragedy Out weighed the beauty Just as: Sanity is not statistical Sanity is not statistical

Fine Lines
Look at us Falling apart Before each other's eyes But this is not sad my dear It was meant to happen For when we were in the process Of putting ourselves back together I didn't notice That I was grabbing pieces of yours And you mine There were spaces of my mind That indeed weren't mine For there was new pain there New memories there I found out how you saw me How you've seen me since the very first day My hair was a completely different shade My eyes so much more beautiful For I had never seen my smile this way before Or at all The very next time that I saw you Your face looked a bit more dull Your posture a bit less defined You gave me such curious looks And that's when I knew That even though You saw yourself as dull And undefined I still loved you That was how We became part of each other By a mistake By a chance That we had fallen apart Before each other's perspectives

Give Me Perspective
You make me think of flowers Not the kind you see in the shops Or your backyard But the ones no one sees The ones in those far away fields of my mind That yes, Even though are not seen Are still beautiful, so beautiful That it makes me think of stars You that is And how they're worth so much Again Like you, About the constellations that they produce That reflect in those eyes of yours That bring up another thought of mine Of how we view the world And our surroundings And how when you choose to see beauty I choose to see ugly That's how our mind sets are different my dear While you are chasing rays of sunlight In the crystal clear waters of our ocean I'm hiding in the dark depths With the unknown things that lie beneath Like the unknown of my mind And you've touched that place You've brought light To the place where flowers grow In the now bright depths of the ocean That reflect the constellations above That show just how far Our love reaches Into the space Of our hearts
