Escape from reality
No where to go
As i lay on my bed
No where to go?
With these headphones i can go places
With each track is a new adventure
With these headphones its like time travel
Past. Present. Future.
You know you want to turn it up louder
The higger the volume
The deeper you go
Pause, play, pause, then play button
You are trying to groove
But cant help if you are needed
Wish these headphones could make me invisible
"Oh what do you want?
Im listening to my music."
Psychotic, sickly, and weird.
Dont come near,
Cuz im a freak with these fears.
Take the blade to my skin,
Draw a portrait, sink in.
Watch the blood overturn,
These emotions are stirred.
Give me some medicine,
Its alll in my head again.
Even after putting up a front for you a thousand times.
You claw at my sadness,
And pick at my madness.
Numbing out the sorrow thats deep inside.
But everything fades,
Like the sun on a rainy day.
These pills arent enough,
Choking on nothing more than cigarette dust,
Waiting on that novitine rush,
All the while im feeling crushed.
Take a breath
Is all theyve got to say,
Well im breathing,
Still im not okay.
Suffocating,
And keep breathing,
All it takes is one single step i say,
End this madness, im all strung up,
Caught in a mess,
That i dont want to adress.
Fixating on all those things they say,
But whats wrong?
I made a left turn,
I do this to myself.
Rope knotted over my bare ankles and wrists,
Tying me down to this freezing glacier,
I try to escape,
Struggle,
I suffocate and try to shake your hands off my mouth,
You coax me to stay calm,
To stop strugglung,
"Just give up for now and let the ice break and take me in"
"Something better awaits beneath the surface, youll see"
And i almost listen to you,
Because the more i fight,
And the more i try to escape
From these unbreakavle grasps,
The more the rope burns and slices my skin,
Stinging and peeling,
Your grip over my mouth tightens,
And i only grow more parched from my screaming,
But for some reason,
Even with this pain,
I
Cannot
Stop
Struggling
I will never wait for someone again.
Those words,
Those promises,
Stagnant vows so thin and weak,
That when i try to lean on them,
They break,
and i fall through
The cuts along my leg
Are so symmetrical
From a certain angle
They look like gills
I guess thats how I breathe
When im drowning.
Enjoy the ride,
No one knows
Whats happening inside.
Breathe,
In and out.
Speak silent,
Shout.

We shall all see
What wicked fools
Will be made of we.
When my dark blue blanket
Was the deep blue sea.
When every wrinkle
Was a tidal ripple
And the ocean belonged to me.

Oh to be a child again
When a yard of grass
Was a football feild.
Wed tread out the goals
And wed equal the posts
As the sun set down to see.

Oh to be that child again
When wallets werent goods
And suits didnt itch
When a friend was a friend
And that was it.
