There’s a reason why I’m scared, It’s because all I’ve done is be unprepared, If I fall down now, it would be the end of my repair, So I fight it all for the time when I’m born again, Right now I’m in a place where I don’t want to be Without a trace of pride or humanity Stuck in a place that doesn’t suit me In this situation it’s true that I’m afraid That each day that passes is another day I’ve thrown away I look around myself and all I see is the waste that I’ve created And turned into my grave It’s so dark and lonesome it makes me full of self pity But like I said before, It’s where I don’t want to be So I fight for the day when I’m free from myself A day when I’m happy and free from my hell It gives me hope to see all the future will bring me And that one day soon, I’ll be free from my animosity

Resurgence of Will
Here is where I am in a body disproportionate to my mind and I don't understand why I cant leave that behind I still feel like a kid in my sophomore year of school just laying in my bed and feeling like a fool and then doing the daily grind from four to eleven always working my *** off till my soles start bleeding come back home feeling tired and abused just want to be left alone and watch some cartoons.

Where am I
To enter into my world close your eyes for a second fill your ears with laughter and picture a green pasture filled with long grass and tall trees create a perfect blur sky above it then make perfect white clouds just below it now picture a city tall and grand with people and street lamps and cars and such now it's being overrun by sand flames the size of great buildings burning the green to a wasteland dead bodies strewn about the floor a tap tap tapping at your bedroom door a large axe crashing through the wood you get up, run, and jump right out the window you're falling now, through the empty black sky you don't know how to save yourself, then suddenly a light appears before your very eyes, then wham! you hit the floor, you don't know how you survived living in this burning wasteland is your life surviving in it is your strife.

In my place
I have a lot of scattered memories of me hanging out with you You are the first person who helped me to open up and you listened to my views mostly our talk was inconsequential, just chitchat between friends we'd be on the bus or in the park just talking into the blue but in those talks there was something more for me you showed me I was worthy not a worthless human being. It gave my face a brighter smile and my life a whole new meaning, I am truly grateful for that short time that i was friends with you

Thank You, Old Friend
When the world fades I am all alone in the nighttime with no one to guide me Through this dark abyss of the apple of my eye I give to you the secret of my life Im better thatn those in whom you place your trust dont lie to me I can hear your soul It rings of deciet

Gibberish of Malice
I was brought here upon a cloud of unfairness a cloud which I tried to undo with hammer and pickaxe I toiled away, but then I fell through Into a sea of despair which the cloud had brought down in torrents and waves it forced me to drown I was still, and unbreathing Like a dead person should be emotionless and unfeeling thats how they described me
