With the wind slithering through the leaves in the tree
It's hard to comprehend the silence in me
My heart does not beat, my lungs do not breathe
My bones do not crack, and my eyes cannot see
But the birds assure me that I'll be alright
With their windchime-like songs, piercing the night
I know that it's safe when the birds are around
But when I cannot hear them, it's danger that silenced their sound

I'm gonna get away
Call me out to Santa Fe
Yeah I'm gonna get away
I wish I could go back to yesterday
Call me, tell me she don't wanna play
Tell her it's okay
No plans, what am I gonna do today?
I need to get away
Call me out to Santa Fe
I wanna get away
Friends can't tell the smile's fake
Wait too long to take
She's comin along, she tell me she don't love me though
That's okay, I'm gonna steal the show
Spotlight, late nights
Free-falling, not afraid of heights
Real sights, fist-fights
It's gonna be a long night
Oh God, I need to get away
But if I don't, it's okay
I'll go back to yesterday
Where the fields shield the pain
And the gold coats the water and steamboats divide the regenerating field of tears
Blood floats, saliva sinks
Roller skating through ice rinks
Ask my brain what he thinks
Brain runs, legs think
Arms call and connect the links
Head spins, eyes roll
Veins pop, leaking blood into my soul
Heart hurts, love flirts
Feet disperse
Head alerts
Death inserts
Soul calls time to reverse
Many girls in mini-skirts
Wind blows, hello, perverts
Rain's out, puddles squirt
Cold out, gloves and sweatshirts
Gun shots, coffee pots
Rain drops and bloodied cops
Where's my way to Santa Fe?
I was told I'd be gone by today
But now that time has come to pass, I take refuge in the past
I know this life was not meant to last
So I look to the sky, and gaze in splendour at the stars He's cast

And through time, Love, she retired
Because she was tired
A new man was hired
His soul was fueled by fire
And Hate was his name
With him came fame
But too, a long lasting rain
Oh Love, why did you leave?
My heart cries to receive your hand
And bury me deep in sand
And bury my dreams in sand
A light called me
Under the sea
I followed to see where it'd lead
To my surprise
There were no lies
Just angels where animals feed
Oh my heart, will we be together, will we?
Here I'll start to write a letter to you from me
When I got hurt, Pain liked me
She said, "Hold me tightly"
Oh brush Pain away lightly
And call Love to see if she'd like me
But she said only slightly
Why do I call to the sky?
If only it were to call too
I might die
But I'll be okay here with you
Love, she called my heart
But Love, she used it for art
Up on display for all to see
A dangling piece of troubles in me
My socks drip blood into the sink
But Love does not care what others do think
Call to me, my Love
Pure as a white dove
Look and scream to above
Pain lives deep inside Love

Hark! She cries but no one will hear
The silence alone fills her with fear
Hark! Her tears begin take their toll
And now her fears are in control
Hark! She screams in the night!
She flees, for her fears are in sight
Hark! Her fears are plotting against her
They're going to try to spread
They're spewing out of her head
They're plotting to see her dead
They're repeating everything she ever said
Her heart is pouring red
And all her tears have left her dry
But she's not ready to die
Hark! The grave calls to be fed
Hark! Her fears are all dead
Hark! Silence is now tamed
Hark! She's no longer ashamed

Feeling lost and all alone
I seek a permanent home
With cold uncertain hands
I welcome this new land
3 minutes pass like a second has
4 and 5 and on and on
Minutes multiply and hours spawn
A sun awaits its time to shine
A moon awaits its time to bloom
Arms and legs reach for more
Rotten dead flowers fill the core
An unceasing light seems to pass by
As guns fire and children cry
But nothing is forgotten or lost
Not without a soul's cost
Weakness resides where pain hides
Strength lies where pain dies
Cold and warm weather comes today
Cold not warm weather comes to stay
No fine line in the middle of a heart
No leaf and tree will ever be apart
No night goes by where children don't cry
No day goes by where people dont lie
Sold a flower to a flower today
Bought a heart with a heart's display...

I never feel love, I only feel sorrow
The worst part about today is that there is a tomorrow
They tell me I'm not feeling dead, well how do they know?
They only care about themselves, they don't care where "the rest" go
I'll take apart my heart and throw each part into a different sea
Take your time, but no one's going to find me
I've covered my tracks, so good luck
Tell me life doesn't ****
Tell me I'm gonna get through this
Tell me what you think love is
Tell me you love me, tell me you care
Tell me you can see me, and you'll always be there
Write all of this down
So forgotten answers don't drown
And show each to me
To avoid my permanent sleep

Don't call me,
Don't waste my time,
Don't judge me,
Don't take what's mine
You've been holding onto me for as long as I can remember
And the only time you've ever let go was last September
But remember,
I'm not your shoulder to cry on,
I'm not the one for you to rely on
Don't touch my hand
Don't cry about me
Don't forget these words
Don't drown yourself in me
Your rope is running thin
I think it's time that you begin
To take life into your own hands
I really don't care about you anymore
You crushed my trust and left the remains at my door
I dont know what to believe because of you
You always lie, where's the truth?
Get out of my life, I'm done with you
Get out of my head, I don't care about you
Leave me alone, I'm tired of you
Leave me alone, I hate you
Leave me alone
Leave me alone
Leave me alone

I want to start with my insecurities
They have a lot to do with my impurities
A boy that, defines love by the places he's at
I can feel the sweat running down my back
A heart that races to the love of his life
Would discern the cut of a knife
To be with the one that he loves
It's more pure than two white doves
A being that fails to complete its purpose
A phenomenon that, leaves most, wordless
A pair of legs that cannot walk
A tongue, a mouth that cannot talk
Arms that cannot reach
A professor that cannot teach
A chef that provides inedible food
A servant that proves to be rude
A waste of life on his bed
His mind dark, and his hand red
Forgiveness is near
But also is fear
I fear that I may never live to see love
We see, people that would rather be
dead, a question that asks a bullet in the head
A knife in the back, an answer we lack
Broken bones and, broken homes
Crying kids and, rising bids
A silent room, a revolting fume
A walking flower, for just one hour
An eye's meal
Describes this one feel
Gluttony with a slide of hand
Desolate flaming lands
Cold snow in the summer's show
A lost chance of getting to know
A heart that changes color
Is a lot less duller
A weak mind with with a strong sword
If you cut the chord
The lights fade out
And in the dark, here lies doubt
And with this thought one would shout
Too bad no one will hear what he shouts about

Oh dear Mr. Bright
It's time to awake from the night
Tonight's been a long one
I've been waiting patiently for the rising sun
But as time passes, my patience grows thin
I got so bored I started carving symbols in my skin
I didn't feel any pain, oddly enough
I guess it's just my way of coping with stuff
3:45 and I'm still awake
I need to get some sleep, for my heart's sake
The snakes under my bed are starting to annoy me
They think it's funny to slither and toy with me
But what can I do against seven deadly snakes?
My fear grows as each one of them takes
A part of my body, a part of my soul
The cuts that I made earlier are taking their toll
It's 4:25 now, I could really use a friend
But no one's up and the night won't end
I look out my window, but there's no stars in the sky
The snakes are closing in now, I know I might die
This is a goodbye to all who I love
I'm in pain, so I look above
As my blood seeps out and the venom sinks in
I close my eyes with regret, seeing only my sins
I'm sorry I hurt you, I'm sorry I didn't care
I'm sorry I messed up, I'm sorry I wasn't there
I don't expect forgiveness but please give me this
A filling for my empty heart, fill it with bliss

A bandaid for my heart please?
Forgiveness for my bad deeds?
A flower that gives no seeds
And one that has no needs
A broken heart will cry its pleads
His tears aren't all he bleeds
I can feel it crying blood tears
I'm getting crushed by my fears

Dead red roses bloom
Only in the light of the moon
Brittle leaves blow by
And set a scene for the sky
With a little bit of water
All these dreams will prosper
But cold hands hold what holds these seeds
And now the only thing that can grow, is weeds
Light breaks through the cold hands and heats the soils of these lands
But hand held spears raise high fears of what is to come
If sea shells wither and snakes do slither, then time has been undone
Freeze and go back so next time won't lack what was to come
The brittle leaves summon thieves and now the day has begun
Waiting patiently for night's return will leave a scar and a burn as the sun slowly dies
A grave behind the mountain will fill blood in the fountain and now there's red skies
But as skies turn black we will never go back so leave the flowers untouched
They will bloom in time, I'm waiting for mine to finally be clutched
There is a rope around me, tied to a rock in the sea
Please, I need your help
I am in need of an untouched greed that will permanently seed this special breed
And will make him bleed at a slow speed so I can watch in agony to ease my conscience so I can finally get some sleep

I try to cut myself into pieces to see which part is best
Today I like my heart, I'll throw away the rest
I don't like putting good organs to no good use
So I'll use them as a shield to catch the abuse
The cuts will bleed but I pay them no mind
It's the damage to my brain that I don't see too kind
I cry myself to sleep every night and hope that without a single fright I'll sleep a sleep that never ends and inside my dreams are all my friends
They each take turns greeting me but soon they'll end up deceiving me
They all surround me and jump up and down
Their unmasked faces show their frowns
They all hold their hands up high
And scream and shout as they count to five
Their blood oozes from out their ears
And each one of them turns into one of my fears
They keep screaming and screaming
They tell me I'm dreaming I'm dreaming
I won't wake up
I won't wake up
My ears are bleeding but the blood shuts out some of the sound
And their blood that was oozing has seeped underground
The ground is now red
All of them, just dead

If I'm unwanted that's fine
I know I can be a handful from time to time
But please do not touch my heart
One more hurt and it's sure to fall apart
I'm sorry if I hurt you
I want you to know I never meant to
Kinda funny how fast the time goes
I feel like I'm walking fast as time slows
Back to you now cause I'm getting off track
I want you to know I've always got your back
If you don't have mine then that's fine
I understand some of your pain, doesn't really heal with time
Yeah I've been there before
The nights are cold as the floor
The tiles seem to be made of ice
The warmth of love should suffice
But I forgot it wasn't meant for us right?
Seems we're out of the spotlight
It's okay though, I've never been the show off type
They say move in when the time is right
I'm sorry to cut this short
But I'm tired from a long day of court
Judging myself hurts so bad
Sometimes I cry when I'm not sad
I'm not too embarrassed to say
I think we've both had a hard day
I told you about her and you took it well
But I never told you, that was the outer shell
