Cough me out
Spit me up

Do you hear that
Choke me down

I'm not going anywhere
I'll eat you up

Try to run
Go ahead and hide

You're too late
Didnt heed the warning signs

I'll be with you
As you choke your last breath

I spill from you
Contaminate the rest

Hello
Do you remember me
A distant past memory
A secret you hide
The way that you lied
Do you remember me

Wasteful
Distasteful
Human being
Impossible, just to be

You've proven me right
I am inside,
Of that precious head
Dream of me
laying underneath your bed

Disgraceful
******* shameful,
filth of the earth
You're already dead
You're already dead
Dead to me

An assertion
Allegation
Your confidential soul

My friend since I took my first breath
Your friend until you take your last
I miss you already and it's not over yet
But it's coming soon

You're so strong, you smile through it all
To make me feel better when I know your feeling ill
I dont know what to do without you
You are one of my greatest comforts

You held my hand when I was a child
I wish I could hold yours now
I'm sorry I left and moved away
I wish I'd have more time with you still

Please wait for me in heaven
I wish you didn't have to go
But when I take my last breath
I hope to see you again

All I want to do is talk to you

The tree has lasted many long years,
Seen his share of the forest's deer
Felt the pelting of a hearty rain
Been the perch for a lovely crane
He's turned from pink to vibrant green
Then to yellow, a painted scene
His leaves have fallen, he's covered white
Frozen stiff until daylight
A summer wakens leaves anew
Glittered sweetly by morning dew
This year though his leaves are sparse
As a result of a winter so harsh
Fragile and rickety becomes of he
A million lifetimes he's gotten to see
With each zephyr his old bones weep
He's ready to lay his final sleep
And so the old tree turns the richest gold
A finale quite grand and so bold

Hey love, you've torn my insides out
You've left me arid in a drought
You've immersed yourself inside my brain
And clutched so tight evoking pain
You've been so ***** and quite cruel
Haunting me just like a ghoul
If you look deep inside of me
You will see pain and agony
Let’s dance on the grave of love
While laughing at the fools above

You are nothing without me
No fish to swim in your great big sea
No tidal waves, no playing games
No happiness, no sudden pain
No irritants, or arguments
No big great plan with holes or dents
No soft kisses, no big wishes
No one to do the ***** dishes
There is no pain, there is no shame
Not even a finger to point the blame
There are no laughs, no cries to be had
Not even a reason to feel glad
Love can be so battered and so bruised
Love can be so beaten, and abused
With nurture and care you can plant a love seed,
Then water it gracefully sparing any greed
Watch it grow and continue to feed
Careful, love has thorns that'll make you bleed
Love can be beautiful, love can be great
Love can make you believe in fate
So romantic, so clichè
Leaving you breathless, no words to say
So without me you are nothing, and nothing you'll be
Don't toss love aside and throw away the key

I am alive right now, right now I'm alive
But I'm feeling dark, yeah I'm feeling blind
Don't know what tomorrow brings, got a feeling I don't care
My thoughts are mine and they're so hard to share
You do not owe me anything but I am not yours to keep
I will lie still in silence and just continue to weep

I am not here, I have been lost
I have traveled far beyond this box
All the roads on the map
It doesn't matter now
The time passing by
It doesn't feel right now
And I am not this, I cannot see
I cannot breathe with it crushing me

There is a crack beneath where I stand, the length of my elbow to my hand
It leads to a hole inside of the ground
It whispers my name, forcing me to glance down
It grasps at my ankles, holding me still
I kick and fight it with all of my will
But I am fatigued, I have grown weak
I have begun to lose what I seek

I am not here, I have been lost
I have traveled far beyond this box
All the roads on the map
It doesn't matter now
The time passing by
It doesn't feel right now
And I am not this, I cannot see
I cannot breathe with it crushing me

I don't know where I'm going, sure I'll see you there
When I find me again a smile we can share
And you'll see how happy a sad heart can be
Yeah we will see how happy a sad heart can be
