I shall lock away what's left of me
yes! even I can grow tired
you know I have no name in this
still I throw my hands unto the fire

still I regret even speaking this
I am rotting- loathing from inside
so you will go ahead with yours
I will see whats left of mine

I shall lock away what's left of me
leave you free to go
I washed your feet, you wash your hands
and I am left alone-

words stumble in my mouth
like drunkard men
trying to find the light switch
after coming home
from a long night
of throwing their heads back
and sighing in relief
from the cold shots
of liquid pleasure
ice on my tongue
gagging on happiness

GOTTA GIVE IT SPACE TO BREATHE, BABY
words evade me like
trying to find your keys
in the dark
like standing outside
waiting for someone
TO OPEN THE **** DOOR
and everything smells like
the stale *****
of a dog no one looks after

words trip over my teeth
inside my mouth
like ripping the legs off a bug
and watching it try to
get back up
and run away
watching and watching
and wishing
to amputate my right arm
and give it away to charity
(give it away to clarity)

words get caught in my mouth
like dying fish
caught in a net
on burning asphalt
screaming and tossing
like another one
of those nightmares

NO LONGER DOUBTING
HELL’S EXISTENCE

waking up
in a pool of fleshy sweat

if we make it to December
and I'm still here
be surprised I stuck around
and didn't disappear
be surprised that I found
some other reason to endear
cause in the dark it's cold
and I'm frozen with fear
(death has my ear
death has my ear)
pray for his relief
hope this time it's for real
has me dreaming of heaven
has me feeling it near
I got this feeling his embrace
would make it all clear
if I can forget for a second
that I'm somebody's daughter
then I'd gladly go quick
and go quick as a martyr
And if I don't end it all
before the year is over
consider it a victory;
another badge on my shoulder
maybe January won't come and go
and leave me much colder
always hated New Year’s Eve,
left me feeling much older
one part nostalgia,
all the phone calls
two parts petty,
not getting any;
not getting any at all
it's funny it's funny
and I'm actually laughing
the fact that I'm jealous
of all that *** that you’re having
if you saw me weeping last Tuesday
I didn’t have a cold
I was throwing up
and matter of fact
I might have thrown up
cause I saw your face
and all I could think of was her
cause what I saw in your face
made me feel like a blur
made me feel like I'm useless
and I'm useless to you
******* place was flooded,
made me sick to my stomach
the way we go through life
walking acting cold blooded
got me feeling disgusted,
got me growing berserk
if it isn't home or school,
or my reflection, it's work
and it's crazy how looking
at that one girl can hurt
it's crazy how the fake friends
seem to pile up like dirt
and it's trash and it's corpses
and it's venom at best
the fact I'm still here
isn't making me feel blessed
**** place full of people,
**** smiles, ****, it's evil
and my attempts at pursuit
are pathetic and feeble
the crowd's optimism is lethal,
stick both eyes with a needle
and pray to heaven
and the angels
that I won't ever see you
I’d fill an ocean with all of
the loathing I'm feeling right now
self-loathing got me wondering
if I'll work through it somehow
I'll tell you about the crying,
but I'm willing to bet
bet you know how it gets,
bet you know all the rest
these twenty years of age
on my chest and my breast
pretty much feel like I'm dying;
pretty much feel like I'm dead
