It's a lot harder to put the knife down Than it is to pick it up.
It's a lot easier for me to ruin things
Than it is to not **** it up.
I put one foot in front of the other
And then I run.
Before my wings get ready to take flight.
The years have passed
But I know I won't take that path.
The winds pick up
And my lungs expand
But I'm running
I'm running
I'm going nowhere fast.
Arms grip my waist
I'm being carried away.
I'm being thrown into my grave
I feel the need to escape
But it's so comfortably dynamic...
The death
And decay
I can grasp it.....
The world i used to know is fading with you in it.
I never knew life until you arrived
Please don't leave don't say goodbye.
Don't slip away
Just until next time.
Please come back
So I can't push you away
Stay with me
Don't go away.
Please
Please
Chris
I pulled out the bottle
And the familiar glint
Glowed in my eyes.
I took a sip
And then another.
One sip
Two sip
And then another
I felt myself slip
And start to go under.
The yelling
The screaming
It all went away
Everything was reversed
And so was the pain.
I didn't see the glass crack
As I clenched it tight.
All I saw was the trippy neon lights.
I thought the sight was pretty and I wanted it more,
But I didn't know that it was blood dripping on the floor
I have fate
Not faith
I have wounds
Not scars
I'm drowning
Not breathing
Internally i'm screaming
I can't find the answer
Outside of a bottle
Or inside of a blade.
It's like there's fire in my skin
And I'm drowning from within
I can't take another step
Don't say goodbye
You haven't said hello,
Don't let me go
I'm begging you to hold me close,
Cause if you let me go,
I'm afraid I might shatter.
My blood will spill
And my skin will crack
I won't have the power,
The power to fight back.
I won't know when I'm gone
All I'll remember is that you
Didn't hold on.
everyday it's like i'm playing the same film
over and over
and over again.
my days are filled with me sinking
in shame
and the happiness that I feel..
well,
ha,
they're actually just ads
that are posted as trailers right before the actual movie starts.
the story of a 16 year old with a hidden life of parental abuse
substance abuse,
alcoholic abuse,
filling in the empty spaces that aren't filled with flashbacks of a past life
a life of how i actually died.
a past life where i actually used to smile
and had a reason to LIVE that smile
instead of just WEARING IT all the time.
none of these labels actually fit my demeanor..
*****
****
*****
drunk
kiss~***
smart~***...
ha,
if only society decided to look through a mirror
instead of a telescope
they'd actually be able to see
what the effect of us is...
the downfall of us all..
we are slowly becoming extinct and~~
sorry once again ive gotten off track.
enjoy the show
