Frustrated beyond words.
Is this what you hoped for,
is this the world?
Confusion massed at my door,
I wish I could think no more,
no heart left to beat,
it has been beaten out of me.
Life times have passed and gone,
yet I sit here, watching, waiting, for the dawn.

I sold my soul to a traveling caravan
And there my heart did play.

Sitting in a harp
Waiting for a trap
To make love fall its way.

Love is a word
Which sparks these hurts
From this fallen day.

I wish
I had something
To make love fall this way

Love is sticky, for we all know it true
Some days you just have to sit back,
And wait for love to find you.

Why did God give me to you?
If for no other reason then,
To rip my heart out again?
This seems to happen to me,
Over,
And over,
And over
Again
Do you find no pleasure in
The past you have given me,
The pain you have caused me?
Yet still you feel the need to destroy,
Not my life, for you‘ve kept that around far to long,
But the things I want,
You rip them out of my hands
And toss them far out of my reach,
I’m tired of fighting,
I’m tired of complaining,
I like the complacent of happiness,
But this you never seem to give it to me for long.
If you take this away from me now,
You understand its back to the bottle,
And the fire to my lips

You understand, don’t you?
Now leave me alone.

In my head, I'm not good
At pretty much anything.

'specially living

I mess it up, all the time

Laugh at the wrong parts


My timings off

I'd never change it tho

because that would
destroy who I am.

Here are something's you really should know...
& I'm sorry you did not get the memo.
But girls and boys love like they should.
And you could to.
Come out of your shell.
Its time to play.
Forget all the glory in this day.
Just stand up tall.
And proclaim to them all.
That you and I are ok.

The summers gone
The winters to come at last.
Say my love the words I wish to hear.
And do not tempt my fear.
For fear is what I fear myself.
Keep the wind at bay so I can not hear.
The words you intend to say.
Say you've gone and come away.
From those things make you look that way.
I miss you my dear.
Please come back.

Was the sky so blue
And the earth so round
That I forgot to turn my frown upside down?
Those words I say are true,
And the sky was blue.
But in the end it did not matter.
The end is near
So give yourself over to cheer.

It just came out
And about
And the truth my dear is all I fear is contained in yourself.
Say my dear the words I wish to hear.
Though they are old and worn out.
For my fear is soon to be here.
And all my time has run out.

— The End —
