Sometimes I write, sometimes I don't / Sometimes I'll speak, sometimes I won't.
The voices they whisper, Insults that they bare; They scratch at my back, They pull at my hair. They dare me to open, The window and try And spread out my wings And see if I fly; The voices they tell me That "death is for you", And I don't respond, I know that it's true. They yell and they scream, "we'll be here forever!" And even in death, I'm with the voices... Together.

The voices they whisper.
I'm out of time; My clock has worn down And my head has crumbled, Beneath my thorn crown And to all my fears; Which I have succumb And my strength has withered My darkness has won; As I am no hero No death do I fear; For no one will mourn, That I am not here.

I'm out of time.
Sometimes I want to hurt, Myself so I can feel, The pain that unto others, I so easily deal. Sometimes I want to hurt, Myself so I can know; That this pain I feel, Is no one's but my own Sometimes I hold the razor, The needle, or the blade And want to cut until, The light begins to fade; Sometimes I want to hurt, Myself so I can feel And know once and for all, That I will never heal.

Sometimes...
This is my note; I hope that you read it, I hope that this finds you, I hope that you see it. This is my note; No need for the fears, Be you rest assured, I left with no tears. I do what I do, So I don't feel pain, And may god forbid, That you feel the same. So let me leave now, One wish with this pen; That one day you'll die And we'll meet again.

This is my note.
You're my sunshine, My picket fence, My no-crime; The cake that I can keep, The sweetest thing, That is all mine. My heart, my mind, My water into wine; The light in my life My one sunshine

I'm only human That means that sometimes I **** up That means I have no right to act arrogantly Or stuck up That means I cannot hate Which is something we've got too much of It means we're both the same And that comes from me with as much love.

I smile, I smile; No time to say pooh! I smile I'm happy, I'm happy, It's true! Let's smile together; Like happy ones do! First, pass me the needle, And I'll smile like you!

Smile.
The dream of your face I chase oh I chase an unwinnable race in a hypocritical place I hate you Do I hate me? I hate knowing the things we could be I hate knowing the fact that you can't see I hate seeing the person you've made me The dream of your face The time that I waste I'll soon make my case time takes the time time takes.

You bring many complications Problems and implications Consequences of the titles Come always unmitigated Let's face it Consistency of questions and interrogations Sometimes I ask how it's possible That we ever made it L.O.V.E four letters that speak in volumes Growing like a grape vine and greater with every commune Every time we float Reminiscent of birds feathers When we have a conversation With our lips pressed together And as we manage the body language That's when It happens That L.O.V.E spells happiness.. And Peace and Passion It makes me go against my sense And my better rations Put quite simply L.O.V.E's just f*cking fantastic

L. O. V. E.
I am but helpless Thinking about you Lost in your eyes And your body too Daydreaming sweetly Dreams not of mortality But thoughts of forever Suddenly a reality The touch of your finger tips Lightning and fire To strike at and sizzle My deepest desires A hopeless romantic You have made out of me Forever in thought Of what we could be Daydreaming sweetly Though not of mortality But regrets forever That never's reality
