Even if I believed in the first place I'd believe even less How could 'He' As you call him Rip my heart out of my chest Nah, just kidding I've never had a love I've never had a weakness in the form of a person And I'll never believe in a god above Guess I'll never have a lot of things Guess I'm missing out I'm scared my life is gonna go by And I'll have nothing to tell my grandchildren about But hey Isn't that how all of us kids are living Locked in our rooms Leaving only to visit the kitchen To make myself a meal Even when I should just as well starve myself Because the way I'm wasting my life is kinda surreal But lately, I've really felt: "Hey, I need some motivation I wish I could quit school Hey, I'm in a state of deterioration But it kind of ******* rules" I guess tomorrow I'll start a healthy diet And finish my homework on time And exercise the way I used to And go out with my friends all the time Even as I write this I'm laughing At my own thoughts Cause "tomorrow" is my dreamland And dreaming is my weak spot ;)

Teenage Thoughts
How are you? I'm alright I guess... Where do we begin? Maybe at the start of this mess. Are you uncomfortable? I can't say that I'm not. Is it your past? Well it's all I've got. Do you still get nightmares? Well I used to... Will you let them show? Depends on you... What do you hope to accomplish? I don't know... Peace of mind? Would you have done things differently? Everyone wants the chance to push "rewind". Care to elaborate? Let's just say I would've liked to be braver. What do you mean? I should've stood up to my father... Did he abuse your trust? He did more than just that... Rob you of your freedom? Let's see... His belt, cigarettes and also boiling water out of a vat. Do you wish him ill? I wished him dead. "Wished"? Yeah...in his bed. Why "wished"? Because I wanted that then... For how long? Since I was ten. What about now? (Maniacal smile) I am now... At peace. "At peace"? I have found release. You have? Yes... I couldn't resist the urge. Urge to do what? To comply with the voice... "Freedom...lies in the purge..." You left your father? Yes but not before... Go on... Not before I slit his throat with a smile on my face as I shut the door...

A Hundred Lives
Lyric and Beat held hands and together they were Poem Poem and Note held hands and together they were Song Song and Feeling held hands and together they were Music

Music
Upon the hill he sat on his ***** worn-down mat Until he heard a pat-pat-pat what was that? His body, thin and old Framed against the rain so cold His wide eyes he rolled Towards the gates of gold No longer did the rain Wash away at his mangled mane He tossed aside his shame And boarded the forever train

The Forever Train
If you've ever felt the moonlight shine across your tear-streaked face If you've ever felt there was a gap which nothing could replace If you've ever felt a longing that no one could restraint Then you've probably watched your hopeless heart wither and shrivel and taint

So faint
I hope you don't mind that you're always on my mind
