I can walk into the bar,
And feel my insecurities wash away,
No matter if this place is no good for me,
I know I'll want to stay,
I have so many thoughts,
Always running through my mind,
But when I walk through those doors,
I leave them all behind.
I hear the music pumping.
People enjoying their night,
And suddenly all my woes are going,
And I'm feeling alright.
I wave to people that I know,
A hug or two along the way,
Give me time to settle in,
Then I'll want to play.
Dancing to the music,
Getting people on their feet,
Enjoying each others company,
Moving to the beat,
It's like having a party,
With all your closest friends,
Enjoying every moment,
Not wanting the night to end.
This is a place of comfort,
It's where I feel my best,
Expressing one part of me,
And ignoring all the rest.
I may regret certain things,
I do when I'm too ******,
But more often or not,
I regret the nights I miss,
I haven't yet got bored,
And I'm not sure I ever will,
I know there is more to life,
But I'll be here until,
Either I get forced to leave,
Or I've had my fill,
You may think I'm crazy,
Pathetic or wasting my life away,
But like I said I'm happy,
And therefore I am okay.

You can make your jokes and remarks,
And I'll just take it in my stride,
But don't ever think the things you say,
Will make me run and hide.
I may not care about your opinion,
But I will not tolerate your lies,
I won't listen to your gossip,
But I do have my pride.
So next time you feel the need,
To draw attention to yourself,
Leave me out of you critiques,
You have your own stories to tell.
If you think you're above us all,
I'll bring you back down to earth,
Because believe me darling,
Your darkest secrets can be unearthed.
I know things about you,
You don't want spread about,
But keep on spreading rumours,
And I'll start to shout them out.
Don't mess with me honey,
I may look calm and sweet,
But there is a side of me,
You really don't want to meet,
You really don't want to take me on,
Because I have nothing to loose,
And willing to take a bet,
That what I have heard is true,
Continue to try and break me,
And I will ruin you.

It's not fun to play games,
To mess around with the knife,
I know what it's like,
To want to end your life.

To add some more pressure,
Swallow those extra pills,
But you're just playing games,
To gain your sick thrills.
To see peoples reactions,
When you tell what you've done,
To see their concern,
And the attention you've won.

But I've been there for real,
Where the darkness takes over,
But you only lie,
When you say that you've been there.
Because as long as you feed,
On other peoples fear,
You'll stay in the light,
And never go here.

A few drinks and I wake up,
The party can begin,
Turn up the music,
Let the people in.
I'm in the mood for dancing,
And laughing with my friends,
Keep the drinks coming,
May this night never end.
Bouncing round the place,
Talking to the guys,
I've had enough alcohol,
To stop me feeling shy.
So I'll flirt on,
And have a little fun,
But you know that's all i'm doing,
So don't pretend you are the one,
Don't you dare make out,
That I am obsessed,
Cause if i'm being honest,
I'm was never that impressed.
Yeah I'll admit,
There was at one time lust,
But i'm so over it now,
It was only ever a crush,
So stop making out,
I'm infatuated with you,
Cause we both know,
That simply isn't true.
I don't know what it was,
That made you catch my eye,
I'm putting it down to insanity,
A disease within my mind.
But that was in the past,
And I've finally seen the light,
And I am determined,
To set you right,
You're nothing special,
And I'm worth much more,
So seriously ******* dude,
Walk out the door.
Not my best but definitely one of my favorites

I spent so long ignoring,
What you did to me that day,
Pretending it hadn't happened,
Praying the memories would fade,
I kept it secret,
From everyone,
Holding it in,
Trying to move on.
You broke my trust,
In the worst possible way,
Then just acted,
Like everything was okay,
I was weak then,
But I'm not now,
I stand tall,
And I stand proud,
I've moved on,
I bet you have to,
I bet you've forgotten,
What you put me through,
Locked it away,
In the back of your mind,
Pretending you're descent,
Honest and kind,
Well karma's a *****,
And I hope it catches you up fast,
And that you'll pay for the things,
You've done in the past,
And if I happen to meet you,,
Somewhere, Someday,
I promise you this,
You won't walk away.

I buried my worries,
Deep in my soul,
Into the depths,
Where I try not to go,
But in the middle of the night,
While I lay in my bed,
They creep from the shadows,
And enter my head,
Dragging me down,
Into their darkest of places,
Bodies of darkness,
Without any faces,
Caressing my heart,
With an evil leer,
Causing surges of sadness,
Heart-ache and fear,
My demons thrive here,
Trapped in their haunt,
Playing their sick games,
Of torture and taunt,
Get me out of here,
Out of my mind,
Save me from this hell,
And help me to find,
A slither of peace,
An end to the sadness,
Away from this pain,
And all of the madness,
I can come back to the light,
As a new day is born,
My demons are silenced,
At the break of dawn.

I'm a little broken,
But don't give up on me,
Trust that I'll get better,
Just wait and you will see,
Just give me a little time,
Some patience and apathy,
Promise you won't leave,
I'm trying hard to be free,
Free from my fears,
From memories of my past,
From feeling undeserving
And like happiness can't last,
Please don't leave me now,
I'm slowly giving in,
If you fight for me,
I'll try and let you in,
Right now I know I seem,
Like a flirtatious drunken fool,
But get to know me better,
And I will surprise you,
There's more to me than that,
I have hidden depths,
You just have to persevere,
Don't write me off just yet.
I find it hard to trust,
Because I've been hurt so many times before,
And even when I think I know,
I'm never really sure,
I may come across as confident,
But i'm really insecure,
And this may never change,
It's something you and I will have to endure,
But don't mess me around,
Don't prove that I was right,
Not to let down my guard,
And give in to the fight,
I'm trusting in you,
Against what I feel,
BecauseIi know the insecurities,
Aren't really real,
Bearing my heart,
Bearing my soul,
Giving into hope,
Letting doubt go,
Again I'm asking for patience ,
For you to trust in my heart,
I'm moving on from self confinement,
And letting my new life start.
