Twisted and cruel
The one who plays me
Like a puppet
Cut my strings
And set me free
For the good in the world
I can no longer see

Save me from you
Save me from me
I beg you to set me free
Don’t call my name
Don’t call me at all
The higher you raise me
The farther I fall

Forget the past
It meant nothing at all
At least not to you
But For me everything
I gave my heart and soul
But now I’m shattered
Bitter and cold

So cut my strings
And set me free
To be alone
For all eternity.

When you open your heart
You risk everything
For the lucky few
There is blissful love
For the unlucky
A broken heart
Shattered dreams
A feeling of loss and despair
It makes one ponder
Does the chance of love
Out way the risk of being hurt?
A little food for thought...

Shy quiet girl sitting in the corner
Fighting to break free from your shell
Afraid to speak what’s on your mind
For it may not be what others think
Afraid they laugh at you behind your back
Feeling what you say is just not important
You’re not smart enough for your opinion to count
You’re ignorance shows each time you speak
So instead you hide and let the world pass you by
So you’re not condemned a stupid freak.

They say women are moody creatures
But I think men are still worse
The only difference between the two
Men don’t get the monthly curse
They’re moody when they get hungry
When they haven’t got their beauty sleep
In fact they don’t seem to need a reason
To turn into complete bleep bleeps.
I like the male speicies just fine but sometimes.....

I feel myself slipping
To the depths of great despair
Loneliness is inevitable
I don’t want to go back there
I hear your voices calling
Wanting me to come back
I ‘m trying hard to reach you
Please grab a hold of my hand
If I reach the bottom
I ‘m afraid there’s no return
From this **** depression
Another of god’s many curse.

Little has changed over the years
A new coat of paint and hardwood floors
Mom’s waiting with cookies for the kids
Who said you can’t go home

When the hustle and bustle of the day ends
And everyone is asleep in their beds
That’s when the nightmares always return
And the haunting sick feelings start again

I’m not alone I can feel them near me
Is it the angel from heaven I loved so
Or has the evil ******* escaped from hell
I’m covered in goose bumps and chilled

Morning can’t come soon enough
I lay there still and wide awake
I revert back to that scared little girl
Please don’t let him hurt me again

At last the sunlight shines…I’m saved
Mom asks how I slept last night
I look the other way and lie
She never needs to know

Nothing’s changed after all these years
The memories and scars are still there
Never ending and unhealed
Who said you can’t go home.

It’s been so long
Since my heart was yours
But yet I stay and play the game
I ***** myself out to you
To give my kids the life they deserve
A place to live, food, and clothes
And a dad they love truly so
You are the twinkle in our daughter’s eyes
Our son and you are so alike
You’re a decent father to the kids
But never the husband who loves his wife
Perhaps that’s the way it needed to be
But now I see you’re not for me
You’re really not a terrible man
There once was love when we first wed
But time has changed one of us
I have grown and you’re still a kid
You’ve cheated on me with your alcohol
Your crutch in life but now you’ll fall
While you were drunk I carried on
I’ve learned to stand on my own
I keep the house and care for the kids
While you’re out there acting single again
I can’t continue to live this way
I want a chance to be at peace
The chance to find some love for me
To have someone share my days
And fill my life with happier ways
So now this ***** has seen at last
This life of doing tricks must stop.
