nothing is the same
changes are mean
your love is everything
don't let it all fade
this has meaning

you are my best friend
well, you once were
we used to be
free spirited kids
who thought
we ruled the world

Inside I am hurting
though I am supposed to stay strong
Need to move past
all this romance gone wrong
I felt my heart breaking
I held on to my pain,
loyal to the end,
despite my disdain.
Still with reckless fashion
and burning desire,
I abandoned those dreams,
extinguished that fire.
I would love forever if given the chance.
But I'm weary now, too tired to dance.
Why are things so complicated?
Crying is nothing
But red tears came
A broken heart surrendered
A tired mind remain
Agony is here
As I cut my blood
I hang on to dear life
But then I give up
Life is but without colors
And happiness is what I lack then
Emotions so powered
But no glass to fill them in
My life rush through days
But nothing interesting
Seems to happen
Your life so serene
Mine, dull
Continue to live
But here I stop

hello? yes, i can hear you.
how have you been?
do you like mars and jupiter?
how was your vacation on the moon?
when are you gonna send me postcards?
will you be back soon?
are the stars as pretty as they say they are?
do they shine as bright as we see them?
you know?
your room just got darker
the eyes of the broken are now hopeless
things have changed
and i'm begging for so many answers that i will never get
please!
no!
please!
don't hang up on me!
grandma?? grandma??

When we're little, we believe the place to go is up, up, and away
We get a little older, and we want to know what's down there
In the deep
The beauties, or the beasts?

One day we'll be adults
Too tired to try and fly
We'll just climb
Working to the best of our abilities for a good reputation
Polishing our shoes, straightening our ties
And one day, it's all gone
You wonder how it all could have happened so fast
Well, at some point, you turned around
And started rolling downhill

Then you realize
The best thing about all this is that the ride down never ends
It's as infinite as space
You see that everything can always be worst
You can always fall a little deeper
Which is why even the ones everyone call "freaks", are beautiful

But this hill has nothing to do with actions
Just thoughts
It's why the famed have a spotlight
They're in too deep
Deep in greed they count their cash
Only to waste it on yet another mask

This is why I can't admire the rich
Their power comes from what the masks of deception bring them

They try to drag down those of us free from their evil gravity
But we don't give in
Hell, we win
We don't just barely make it out with bruises and black eyes
We dance away with grace
To the top of the hill
We don't dance to escape the monstrous underworld
We dance to stick it to those that made us believe the surface wasn't beautiful
I have no clue as to how I came up with this.
