You think you can leave
and I'll come running
back into your arms?
Never again
Too many times you've made me a pawn
in the games you play
I won't do it anymore
I used to be a normal kid
who played with mud and chased boys
but now I sit in darkened rooms
and stare into the void
and it's all because of you
so when you ask for my forgiveness
my answer will be
Never again
The whispers of ancient advice
Float through the wind
And land in my brain
Perhaps from past persona
Who felt my pain
Unaccepted in the world
For the unique thoughts and words
So they covered up their soul
With a mask made of worldly views
So that they might fit in
With the people who don’t even know
The person inside
The voice says
“Do not hide”
I stand alone
In a darkened night
With the sparkle of stars overhead
I fill my lungs
With the cold night air
With sacred dreams of serenity
There are no words for this moment
The earth stands still as I take a break
From the chaos inside me
This spark in time
Is so divine
I cannot fathom how or who or what or when or why
I deserve this moment tonight
This fear, this anger, this pain
All the thoughts inside my brain
Neither medicine or prayers
Could wash away the stain

I’m too weak to draw the lines
Now I have to pay my fines
It just bottles up inside
You couldn’t see the signs

Now I lay here in my grave
This poor soul you could not save
As I lie here in the ground
To death, I am a slave
Can you just try to see my point of view
Instead of thinking about just you
Open up your eyes and see
The demons overcoming me
The winds of rage that rip my mind
The time it takes just to unwind
The pain and sorrow
Hating tomorrow
Wishing it all would end but I’m stuck
In this place until the end because
I’m scared to take a chance
I don’t know what's beyond
Trying to rip from rhythm and rhyme
But I come back to it by the end of time
Stuck in this gloomy mist
This haze that chokes my soul
And pushes me just to the edge
Before yanking me back to the darkest corner in the room
And
You
Are
Oblivious
To
It
All

— The End —
