laying beneath the sheets
like an empty canvas

her legs spread out before me
as her body once did

all five horizons revolved around me
her soul as the earth to the sun

now the air I tasted
and breathed has taken a turn

and all i taught her was everything
i know she gave me all that she was

now my bitter hands chafe
beneath the clouds of what was

the pictures have turned to black
which tattooed everything

i take a walk outside
i'm surrounded by some kids at play

i can feel their laughter
so why do I swear

  twisted thoughts that spin round my head
how quick the sun can drop away

now my bitter hands
cradle broken glass of what was everything

all the love gone bad turned my world to black
i know someday you'll have a beautiful life

i know you'll be a sun in somebody else's sky
but why can't it be, can't it be mine

"Nobody wants to go it on their own"

The loneliness seems to surround me
Tears flow down endlessly
I just want to finally believe

"Everyone wants to know they're not alone"

I sit in utter silence, waiting
For "Mr. Write", the real thing
A go-getter still interested in giving

“There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere"

Another lonely soul, who's been through pain
Been hurt over and over again
Maybe it even made them go insane

"There's gotta be somebody for me out there"

"The one", you know what I mean
Fills in the whole, fulfills my dreams
Truly, I want as good as they seem

"Nobody wants to be the last one there"

I can't be the only one who's in need
Begging, to at least not be made to bleed
Desperation, wanting truth isn't greed


"Cause everyone wants to feel like someone cares"

A hand to hold, a soul to know
Doesn't have to be made of gold
A silver lining, only honestly told

“There's somebody else that feels the same somewhere"

Emotional touch, caressing me deep
Within my soul, not only when I sleep
Shocking to life my wildest dreams

"There's gotta be somebody for me out there"

*Do you know,
Where is he?

I DESTROY HOMES, TEAR FAMILIES APART, I TAKE YOUR CHILDREN AND THAT’S JUST THE START.

I’M MORE COSTLY THEN DIAMONDS, MORE COSTLY THEN GOLD. THE SORROW I BRING YOU IS A SIGHT TO BEHOLD.

IF YOU USE ME, REMEMBER I’M EASILY FOUND, I LIVE ALL AROUND YOU, IN SCHOOLS AND IN TOWNS.

I LIVE WITH THE RICH, I LIVE WITH THE POOR, I LIVE DOWN THE STREET AND MAYBE NEXT DOOR.

MY POWER IS AWSOME, TRY ME YOU’LL SEE, BUT IF YOU DO YOU MAY NEVER BREAK FREE.

JUST TRY ME ONCE AND I MAY LET YOU GO, BUT TRY ME TWICE AND I’LL OWN YOU SOUL.

WHEN I POSSES YOU YOU’LL STEAL AND YOU’LL LIE, YOU’LL DO WHAT YOU DO, JUST TO GET HIGH.

THE CRIMES THAT YOU’LL COMMIT, FORM MY NARCOTIC CHARM, WILL BE WORTH THE PLEASURE YOU’LL FEEL IN YOUR ARMS.

YOU’LL STEAL FROM YOUR MOTHER, YOU’LL STEAL FROM YOUR DAD, WHEN YOU SEE THEIR TEARS, YOU SHOUD BE SAD.

YOU’LL FORGET YOUR MORALS AND HOW YOU WERE RAISED, I’LL BE YOUR CONSCIENCE, I’LL TEACH YOU MY WAYS.

I TAKE KIDS FROM PARENTS AND PARENT FROM KIDS, I TURN PEOPLE FROM GOD AND SEPARATE FRIENDS.

I’LL TAKE EVERYTHING FROM YOU, YOUR LOOKS AND YOUR PRIDE. I'LL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU. RIGHT BY YOUR SIDE.

YOU’LL GIVE UP EVERTHING, YOUR FAMILY, YOUR HOME,YOUR FRIENDS YOUR MONEY, THEN YOU’LL BE ALONE.

I’LL TAKE AND TAKE, TILL YOU HAVE NOTHING TO GIVE. WHEN I’M FINISHED WITH YOU. YOU’LL BE LUCKEY TO LIVE.

IF YOU TRY BE WARNED, THIS IS NO GAME, IF YOU GIVE ME A CHANCE I’LL DRIVE YOU INSANE.

I’LL RAVISH YOUR BODY, I’LL CONTROL YOUR MIND, I’LL OWN YOU COMPLETLE, YOUR SOUL WILL BE MINE.

THE NIGHTMARES I BRING YOU, WHILE LYING IN BED, THE VOICE YOU’LL HEAR INSIDE YOUR HEAD.

THE SWEATS THE SHAKES, THE VISIONS YOU’LL YOU SEE, I WANT YOU TO KNOW THERE ALL GIFTS FROM ME.

BUT THEN IT’S TO LATE, YOU’LL KNOW IN YOUR HEART, THAT YOU ARE MINE AND WE SHALL NEVER PART.

YOU’LL REGRET YOU TRIED, THEY ALWAYS DO, BUT YOU CAME TO ME, NOT I TO YOU.

YOU KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN, MANY TIMES YOU  WERE TOLD, YOU CHALLENGED MY POWER, YOU CHOOSE TO BE BOLD.

YOU COULD OF SAID NO AND JUST WALKED AWAY, IF YOU  COULD LIVE THAT DAY OVER WHAT WOULD YOU SAY.

I’LL BE YOU MASTER YOU’LL BE MY SLAVE. I’LL EVEN GO WITH YOU, WHEN YOU GO TO YOUR GRAVE.

NOW THAT YOU MET ME. WHAT WILL YOU DO, WILL YOU TRY ME OR NOT, IT’S ALL UP YO YOU.

I CAN BRING YOU MORE MISERY THEN WORDS CAN TELL. COME TAKE MY HAND, I’LL TAKE YOU TO HELL.

Young teacher, the subject
Of schoolgirl fantasy

She wants him so badly
Knows what she wants to be

Inside her there's longing
This girl's an open page

Book marking - she's so close now
This girl is half his age

Her friends are so jealous
You know how bad girls get

Sometimes it's not so easy
To be the teacher's pet

Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry

Wet bus stop, she's waiting
His car is warm and dry

Loose talk in the classroom
To hurt they try and try

Strong words in the staffroom
The accusations fly

It's no use, he sees her
He starts to shake and cough

Just like the old man in
That book by Nabokov

Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me

A voluntary victim of life
Parasites called eyes
What we see are lies
We learn to segregate our intuition from physicalities
You gotta unfold inward
A paradoxical lesson of how to 'wake up'

Why did I do the things that I do
I sometimes wonder why

I have no fact to what I do
Things that I do, drive me insane

Never caring
Never feeling blame

Sometimes hurting someone
Never feeling pain

Why is there no pain?
Why is there no shame?

Never thinking what I do
All I want to do, is change the past

So why do I hold it inside?
Why can’t I release this insanity?

I have to let it go
So I can love again
