Your skin is covered with scars you wish you didn't make…
promises you throw into the lake.
And your brain is full of self-pity,
and your thoughts are getting gritty.

Why would you take a perfectly good body.
Just to throw it away on razor blades.
Your body is growing weaker with each etch into your skin.
But it can’t make you feel again.
Draw-on smiles
Un-walked miles
A million places
A million faces
Around... and around.
I guess my ship can sink underground

Cling onto the trends
Finding war that never can end
Sleeping on the bend
Children black and blue
Parents waiting in a que
Unsolved cases
Broken vases

Scratched-off names
Billions of un-played games
Life that hasn't been lived
And moments to be relived
I'll get so **** drunk on senseless time
I'll get drunk on all the crime
Hiding bottles in drawers and desks
Smoking underneath stairs to get rid of pesks
Dealing in parks and day-cares
Shooting guns in pairs

Dried-up tears
And dead years
Drugs laced around drinks
Falling down in skating rinks
Broken skin, hoping to numb the pain
Everyone talks while thoughts go down the drain
Taking forever to let it out
Living forever in this drought

Making drugs in someone else's backyard
Abusing children while praying hard
Gambling high while money is low
Crushing heads just to make a show
Molding young minds just to get cash
Taking happiness and turning it all to ash.

But we live like it's alright
Because soon everything is going to die....

Alcohol take the pain of the tears away
Tears take away all the bad days
Drunken nights full of unnecessary tears
Oh my, oh my. oh my.
Maybe I will get drunk again...
Her
All I need
Is another night
Another chance to be alright
Because she is the sun and the moon
She is rain in June

Nothing compares to this kind of love
I want more, because I can never have enough
She's way too good for me
But I just can't let her be

A playlist of memories that runs through my head
Every day I think of all the words she said
What did I do to deserve her?
Because in winter everything will be a blur

Hold me tight and don't leave me
Just stay and tell me how to be free
Because she is so **** beautiful
And everything is wonderful

Because she is snow on Christmas day
She is the blooming flowers in May
All I need is her.

All I'll ever need is her....
There is no way to run away
There is nothing to stop the decay
Just go weak and let the tears fall to the floor
Nothing to hide or hold in anymore

I just need more time
But my hope is smaller than a dime
This kind of life is painful
But everyone says to be grateful

But what can we be grateful for?
Shattered hearts and broken dreams
People coming apart at the seams
Beaten until we're black and blue
Killing the things that could have grew

Killing love, killing innocent kids
Killing hope, burning eyelids
Killing faith and ourselves

A million reasons to hate the world we live in
Seven billion people full of laughter and tears
Full of taken years
Kick the bucket and thank yourself for the win

We **** everything and leave nothing...
Invisible paint on our faces
Showing who we are
Just an ounce of fear in every step
An ounce of regret for every bar

They figured you out
You're different- you stand out
The beat you till blood breaks through your skin
But you still love

There's nothing wrong with you
But apparently everything is wrong with you
"I didn't raise you like that!" is what you hear from your embarrassed mother
Clinging on to the life of a useless father

"You're going to hell" shoots arrows into your throbbing heart
Screaming for help, wanting to be like everyone else
Hiding in your bedroom and letting them throw their darts
Crying yourself to sleep because the love has left you

You meet the perfect person, but you can't tell them
And you just go over the brim
It's not a choice, because if I could choose
I would choose the easy life
Drowning your thoughts in cheap *****

Kicked out by your own flesh and blood
Hating yourself, and etching patterns in your own skin
The hate comes over like a flood

But there's nothing wrong with you
Nothing has ever been wrong with you
And there will never be a **** thing wrong with you.
People walk around with programmed heads
Filling our brains with a need to be dead
Killing without regrets
Mouths full of empty threats

Blood spills like water
And we all pretend
Like nothing is going on, no it's not the end

We are blinded by our own minds
Pushing away what they say
Going around in circles in order to rewind

Depressed children with broken hearts
Wondering why the family is split apart
Tombstones with grandpa's name
Playing the same old game

There's no one there
Our dreams are crushed
Nothing matters, no one cares

Empty hearts waiting to picked up
Finger-shaped bruises waiting for back-up
And we run away
Until we're out of breath...
Until there is nothing left.....
