8 years old We're told "you're too young to unlearn how to smile and hate the world" 8 years from now on You'll forget the art of care freeness and little girls So 6 young hearts Kick start And venture into A labyrinth Of question marks Mischievous Wide-eyed We had nothing to hide Our smiles were bonafide... We dreamed of superpowers Meteor showers Climbing towers Magic, meremaids Flying ships And finding home In our unlock golden coffer All we had was love to offer A currency that once was just enough.... Guess we grew up Theses days We've ceased To give A frail and feeble **** We've got new better plans Crystal clear Each year Since June of 2010 We've grown cavalier And bland We used to dance in rainstorms Fight our battles, win the whole world We spoke in flames And held hands while we burn Now all we ever do is ***** Apathy, we mop it With apologises I'm sorry's I worry..... I worry, We grew up Things have changed And minds have aged We're so far in this infeasible maze When did black and white decide To propagate Cause everything now seems so.... Gray We've forgotten the beats of our own drums We've lost touch in tunes we used to hum We smell of sin And no longer bubblegum Our season is yet to come We're houses with water stained walls We're standing But no longer tall When did we stop having a ball, I don't recall I don't re-call Here... We are So far We've walked a lonely road We're like nomads finding home But some-where far inside The 8 year old resides Whispering "you'll be alright" So let us live Let live Forgive and hope we don't Fail the souls we used to know Let's walk each other home Little souls please don't let go The unknown is ours to roam Our little souls will walks us Home

You are more than I will ever deserve I wish you could see yourself through my eyes, Or maybe it would scare you, because every time I look at you, No, every time I think of you, My heart jumps, and my mind clouds, Blood rushes to my face, I can't breath and the world spins, Like my brain has short circuited, and I feel like my hair should stand on end, and sparks should fly from my eyes. Surely you have noticed the way I look at you, How I can't draw my eyes away from you. How suddenly the centre of my universe is you, I am just a planet to your sun. And when you look at me, When you catch my eye, and smile, I feel like I have been pumped full of helium, I feel like I could blow away with the lightest breath of air, Like I would shatter into a million pieces with just a touch. Oh, and how I crave your touch! Your hand on my arm, my head on your heart. Your gravity is irresistible, All I want is to be near you. Is it wrong? The way I feel? What would you do if I told you? I do not know, and I cannot take the risk, For if I were to loose you, I would become nothing.

For You
Our parents are always telling us , you have to go to school, that you'll learn everything you need to know before you're ready for the big world, and that'll you need it to get into your dream job But now a days our education isn't about learning, its about passing Our education now isn't the same as it used to be It teaches us that if you're not at a certain grade level, you will not succeed That if you don't meet a certain criteria, maybe you're not for fit the course This education system doesn't teach us whats really important for the big world It doesn't teach us how to live, how to do taxes or how to survive It never taught us the living expenses or how to buy a home Never taught us what to expect once we leave for college or how to balance our schedules No. It only taught us homework, about a plant cell, about tangents and circumferences It taught us that homework is more important than family That it's more important than being a kid and having a life It taught us that if you spend time with loved once and didn't do your work, you're setting yourself up for failure They pile us with work it feels like we cant breath They never once thought of the other class assignments that must be due not even 24 hours later They make us memorise things that will no longer be important when we apply for a job We study for hours in hopes to pass that final test that we'll soon forget But what are we suppose to say when someone asks us how we're feeling? We were never taught that We never memorised an equation to help us find the answer We were only ever taught to keep our mouths shut and do our work Its quite funny what we learn in school now Things more than 80% of the students will never have to use let alone see again School was suppose to prepare us for our future For the job choice we pick Instead we meet and learned quadratics and plant cells We were taught homework is what your focus should always be on We were never taught about the future and what to do And most importantly We were never taught how to love ourselves and the things we should be greatful for They've turn us into sad, mindless robots that's are more concerned about grades and passing than whats going on with the family We lock ourselves in our rooms doing homework for 6 hours than talking to our mothers or fathers who wonder about us We were never taught the importance of family before it was too late Every single highschool student wishes they can turn back the clocks, but it'll never work We were taught the hard way that you don't really know what you have until its gone Something we weren't prepared for They never prepared us for the future Instead, we prepare our self for the possible failing outcome How are we suppose to make a living for ourselves when all we have learned was the stress over homework and family? The depression over a failed test or assignment? The lost feeling of the lost time? How are we suppose to love ourselves when all we do is put yourself down because of school? This education system never prepared us for anything Instead, this education system officially has broken all of us.

Our Broken Education System

She was the girl that liked storms movies and books She was the girl that would hum to the pounding rain drops She dreamed to be free She dreamed to fly around To be one with the wind And one with the ground She had many pains And many sorrows She thought it was time to leave this horror And as she stepped up to meet her bridge She was gladly met with the roaring winds With rain drops pelting up against her skin She could only think of having wings She sang such soft melodies with open arms Embracing the world she so greatly loved Upon her lips, she spoke great words Unspoken to those who need her most "When my soul no longer takes this form, You can hear me singing in the storm"

Singing In The Storm
Do you ever feel like you dont belong? Look around and feel like everything is all wrong? That you can't fit with all your crazy dreams? And that maybe this isn't really you're scene? But not as in a bad way But more as in a good Like you have known your life has been somehow off Like you believed more then your friends Or maybe that you knew you were just a little different Have you ever looked around and wondered why light has become your enemy? You may be broken But you can now see You may have fallen deep But you can still be set free Because there's a little saying you should know It might be common to those around That god knows Even angels fall

Even Angels Fall
The stars twinkle above my head illuminating the trees As I walk this lonely road No stares are on me For I am invisible Only darkness knows my name No match or no candle to guide me home I am lost in this world I reach for the stars but I can never get there But I keep going along this path I am my legacy I am my legend And I will light up this darkness no matter how hard it is Just light up the darkness Light up the darkness

Light up the darkness
The girl, the blue lilac and the monster had finally been within the grasp of each other But as the blue lilacs heart grew warmer and warmer the monster can only ache harder Denial cannot defeat memory His past was all he seemed to think about A past where a beautiful girl would still love him A past where he was still human He was fitted to the image his family; his clan wanted And that image was distort by society's ignorance and fear A creature as ****** as him would be liable for the destruction or another pure soul He didn't want to lose his little blue lilac too And she didn't want to lose her own monster to unknown causes again A bond between horror and beauty is both dangerous yet wonderful But no matter how anyone looks at it: Horror and beauty Purity and sin Yin and yang Its all the same Love is an eternal essence that will always remain Even in death.

The blue lilac
Dreams are where we go to when reality seems to blow Dreams are where we go to when we're feeling lost in the dark Because that's where things tend to come true Lost in this generation where the only things that matter are *** and alcohol We've seem to have lost touch in what our imagination is for Our imagination is for the thoughts and wonders about the world Our imagination is to look at things we have never seen before Our imagination is what makes us different But our imagination seems to be lost in this world just like this generation There's too many deaths of the young ones There's too many grave stones piling up What happened to this generation and why can't it be stopped? Its rare to actually seen a happy teenager with all these demons breaking out So to all you depressed teens out there How about bring back your imagination and let it run free Dreams those unforgettable dreams  and dont let those demons break free Dont let the demons break free

Imagination
I am the captain of my soul I am the master of my fate With the twinkling stars, I set sail to my new life Where the music hums carelessly And the children play freely Where parents aren't allowed and there is never a frown There's never a glumy day because that's where darkness likes to hang We're known around here as the children who like the roam For adventure is our middle name So come with me where your dreams are born and where darkness never plays With the twinkling stars to guide our way, all the way to this place This oh so wonderful place To the place that is called... Neverland
