A dark world flashes with light

A blur of pain replaced with might

Roaming the hallways of broken dreams

Searching for what is lost

But to gain only one thing

Reaching the bottom never felt so good

Who ever knew it could

“We now have breaking news...”

I wish to be
A simple man
But to part of me
That's quite bland
Part of me, that I can not stand

We all have small demons, but myn’s quite bigger
I stare down devil, every time he asks me to answer
Touch my hand, and feel my pulse
Everytime you see my curse, oh

I know what your thinkin about
And what I'm are thinkin about
True love, true hearts
One mask, One part
Wishing I never had your heart, no, no, no

Cause when the card all fold
For you here
I'll have to watch you go
Away from this world for-ever

Fears and tears, run a near
Filling our hearts with a closed ear
A dark shapeless hole with no bottom in sight
Contains all the broken pieces that block our light
It rumbles and shakes inside us
As others act humble or break behind us

A hole that never empties nor ever be closed
Most simply scrape the top off like a layer of snow
If you let the shards of broken glass overflow
Then what is intact will soon become just like so
However, if you get lost in the hole trying to fix all you own
You will face a fate worse than you have ever known

I hold my breath and close my eyes
As the water around me begins to rise
I brace for impact, a blow which never comes
Only the cold water to which I succumb
Washed away by a current from my promised land
I see all around me, opened hands
I claw and scratch
Tear and wound
But my fingers just happen slip right through
I sink deeper and deeper into a world a-new
And the gentle whispers which slowly consume
I don't want to open my eyes
No no no
My heart and mind tell me so
The sharks circle my feet with rusted teeth
I must escape so I ****** and heave
I reach the surface, and bob up and down
My oh my, I almost drowned

One night I found my baby, I told her I would sell my life
We met at a lively bar downtown, were the angles ride
She told me she would always be my’n, and we promised to never cry
We swung from the rooftops sky high, and there was so much light
And there she held my hand, we said it would last forever
In our little small town house, filled to the brim with love letters
Oh my, how did we get so high?

One night I came home weary, filled with love in my eye
There she was waiting for me, you never should say goodbye
Oh how I wish I could turn back time, before she wore a necklace of leather
And how I wish I could see my wife, see our love live forever
Oh my, how I thought we were still so high

Yeah while she left us behind
Our little girl is sleeping restless
I just need to unwind
I guess nothing lasts forever, no

Yeah, now nothing ain't changing, and I am never coming down
I found a note from my six year old daughter, tellin me she wants to see her mom
Hand in hand waiting for a tranzit bus, then she just slipped right under
Oh and when she kissed that bus, I thought I could scream forever
Oh, i'm going to get so ******* high

Oh how we got so ******* high
Oh how I get so ******* high
But this is the last time
Cause i'm gonna see my family tonight

I kiss my momma and my papa on the big, big day
I hug my sister and say “Hey mister” to old man James
I walk my road from which I've sewed as I say goodbye
Cause soon I’ma be dancing way up high on old cloud nine
I've had the greatest life that I could ever have
I bet you never knew that it would go so, so fast

Cause I'm hanging around on old cloud nine
Chillin it out, having the best time of my life
Cause I'm hanging around on old cloud nine
And I thank you for being there the whole time

I loved the days when we were young, said we would never change
Well some things do and some things don't but that's ok
Just remember my very best days and it will be ok
Cause after all it's broken bone that makes us gain

Cause I'm hanging around on old cloud nine
Chillin it out, having the best time of my life
Cause I'm hanging around on old cloud nine
And I thank you for being there the whole time

You choose to go to sleep instead of choosing to paint longer
You choose to throw out rotting food instead of choosing to eat it
You choose to go to work instead of choosing to stay home

You can control what choices you make

But what if you couldn't choose what choice you make
What if you always have to make the same choice?

You always have to choose to paint all night
You always have to choose to eat rotting food
You always have to choose to stay in your home

You know you can never change what choices you make
You know you will always choose that choice

Insanity is not to doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results, that's just determination
It's knowing you can't control your life and the choices you make in it.
