Ovid Apr 2015
The moment when the ticking of a clock becomes your only company
The time you spend alone becomes torment instead of tranquility
The friends you love are let down by your loss of will
For a chance to be how you once were you'd ****
You're looking up to everyone you know
Now you're the cause of your own woe
You threw your faith in the water
You've been drowning for what seems like forever
Keep telling yourself you haven't hit rock bottom
You fell hard but you're not broken
It's never too late for change haha
Ovid Mar 2015
I want clarity on why good times are suspicious to me
Every time I rise I fall with a smile as my disguise

Oh karma, remind me how I shouldn't smile
Make me see my existence as vile
I know happiness can't last forever
But I know I'm always meant to suffer
Oh karma, put me back in my place
Make this disgrace halt from poisoning the human race

When you realize you are part of the disease
You'll watch yourself hate the things you need
Swallow every meaningless bit of shame
Walk forever meaningless until you fall to Earth playing karma's game

Then I opened my eyes and saw I need to take control of my life
Relentlessly someday I'll push away the forces that make living a protracted decay
I have no idea where I was going with this and I'll probably hate it later
Ovid Jan 2015
I've been lost for so long accepting never being found
I've been floating alone just trying to stay high off myself
I thought I was never going to feel that again

I never thought I'd ever feel more
I never thought that I could experience mutual adore
For so long I only hoped to come in second place
To come in first just imagine the look I had on my face

Please let this last
May only death leave this in the past
The future is paved with uncertainty
I hope that road will be explored and conquered by you and me

I've been lost for so long accepting never being found
Walk this world with me that is round
Alligator Now and laters

"I don't know" are your favourite words
Your mind is made up of paths you're not sure of
Your body language is always foreign

Why can't you just be someone who knows who they are?
Attention is all you ever wanted
Just look at the aching hands that write of your aching heart
Alone you feel because you don't surround yourself with those who've been with you since the start
Make ties with people instead of being a stubborn unlaced shoe
You're the only one accountable for what you do

Grow up and be an open book
Don't push away everyone just because they want to take a look
Just look at the aching hands that write of your aching heart
Inspired by Fall Out Boy's "My Heart Will be the B-side to my toungue" Ep

I'm tired of forcing you out of my every thought.
Convincing myself I don't want you isn't working and I'm sure it hasn't worked for anyone.
You can't just flip a switch and forget about someone.
What if this person was exciting?
Made you feel desired?
Made you want to get up in the morning?
Why would you want to give that up?
--
The truth is, the possibility of us is all that it's ever going to be.
A possibility
A what if.
A maybe.

And even though it hurts, I don't want to fight my thoughts anymore.
I'll think of you until I'm ready to let the idea of you go.
That's all you are anyway.
A stupid idea.
I don't really know. I just started typing and this happend.

How am I?
I feel sheltered by a rotting pine that is about to fall
I can hear it creak as I gaze at its the growing cracks
When it falls on my back, the misery of pain will end my screams
For now, I sit waiting for my world to collapse
The woods where I reside, has yet to see the sun shine
As the sky weeps endlessly, behind the front, there is a frozen sunset
I look in awe at this realm that is mine
A place that I do not want to be, shall be ripped away by the weight I carry that shall be a fallen  **tree
Ovid Dec 2014
I've had my eyes on you
Don't ask how long
I just know you've got it all wrong
I can see in your eyes
You use your smile as a disguise
In every congratulatory gesture you make there's a cry for help
Yet you don't let anyone know your true self
Run away or learn from your past
Hide your demons with a laugh
Why let yourself long for breath when there's a hand to pull you out of your suffocating bath?
Trust is a knife you sharpen with every word
I promise this blade we hold will not dig into your back
