He lives under my bed
And he sleeps on the couch
Even when he's fed
He's still kind of a grouch

He'll take one at a time
Or maybe two or three
He won't pay a dime
He thinks they're free

He hasn't a name
But I call him Bob
He thinks it's a game
When my pens he does rob

He hasn't any manners
He doesn't say please
He takes my pens from my planners
And then he flees

What does he look like
If only he would ask
I wish he would go on strike
And take off that mask

The late night phone calls
The random sweet texts
Watch who falls
Into loves great depths

We smile like it's nothing
We speak as one
Together we have something
Who's going to run

Together we can walk
But all we do is talk

I know we feel the same way
If we keep this bottled up
One will surely stray

We can't ever let it end
But I can't keep you as just a friend

I can feel you near
I can see into your heart
Listen up my dear
We don't want to part

A story more beautiful than a dove
This story can't have an ending
This is love
So why are we pretending

I try oh so hard
All of us do
We have up a guard
We try to change your view

We aren't good enough

Do you even see us
Do you even care
What if we put up a fuss
Do you care what we wear

We are only human

You sit there and judge
Ten points off
For one single smudge
This life is tough

I just wanna be called pretty

How do I start this off?
We make promises all the time
Sometimes it's a little hard off
That's why I make all these rhymes

We look each other in the eyes
We make our promises
And then we cry

How do we make so many
But keep so few
All that I have
Is the thought of you

Don't raise that flag of white
We're making all these promises
So now we mustn't fight

So keep me from the rain
I don't wanna hear that thunder
Save me from the pain
Let's make another

Embarrassed faces don't give,
Sinking into a ****** death,
Show real love next time and
Start feeling the open passion.
Stop the natural fear and,
Sacrifice the stress.

I'm standing on the ledge
It's what I must do
I never took the pledge
I'm sorry to all of you

Ready to face my fears
Ready to seal the deal
Ready to stop my tears
So I eat my last meal

Facing my worst nightmare
I do this in front of you
Carrying out this last dare
Forever closing my eyes of blue

I need to set myself free
I'm falling down so fast
Please don't try to catch me
This breath is my last

In bed we lay
We don’t speak
I don’t pray
Please don’t freak

I won’t beg on my knees
I won’t justify my sins
I won’t say please
And I won’t sing hymns

I don’t understand this hell
But I don’t need god
I can excel
Without that fraud

I’m sweet as can be
But stand for my rights
I want to be free
Not bound by unseen sights

Not everyone will concur
And I don’t really care
But if you must infer
Of no god am I aware

I don't understand you anymore.
Everything felt so right.
It's never been like this before.
Why are you hiding in the night?

Are you giving up on our love?
Are you shying away from the light?
Do you need help from above?
Do you feel nothing is right?

My dear love take my hand.
We'll make it through the dark days.
Baby don't feel ******,
This is probably just a phase.

Remember that I love you.
Remember that I care.
Remember I'm always here for you.
Remember with you my life I share.

The smell floods my veins
I ache and cringe
My body flails and strains
Depression seeks its revenge

These pills can't hold it any tighter
If I try I just might explode
So much builds up like a fighter
My weaknesses my body has showed

It will use this against me
I tried to shut it out
It wasn't enough, I was too weak
All I have left is to plea
But I have to voice to shout

I tried my best to fight
It just wasn't enough
Now I hide in the night
This game is getting too rough

I tried to feed it pills
My body now lies in a trench
I just wanted some thrills
Now depression seeks its revenge

I'm right in front of you
Are you blind to the truth
I wish you just knew
We're slowly losing our youth

I can't stay much longer
Why can't you just see
Together we can be stronger
Please let it be

If you don't want this
Please tell me now
But I'm right here in front of you
I'd understand if you want to dismiss
But I couldn't see how

I am here for you
But I won't always be here
Our days are few
Our lives we should endear

I won't be here long
I'm turning away my eyes of blue
I'll sing my last song
And say good-bye to you

Just get in the car
Let's drive away
To somewhere really far
Where night meets day

When we run out of gas
That's where we'll stay

I can't stand this place
Nor can you
We'll leave without a trace

We can start new lives
Like people in the movies do

Please just take my hand
Together we'll flee
Together we will stand
Runaway with me

Fill yourself with energy
Get ready to fight
Don't put yourself in jeopardy
Run from the night

Listen for the moment
You have the power
Find your opponent
Wait for the hour

You can do this
You have the tools
Close your eyes
Show those fools
Seal it with a kiss

Feel the rush
You can't get enough
Don't fall at first blush
Stay tough

It will pull you in
You don't need a knight
You can win
Run from the night

Give me too much
And I will abuse
My stomach I'll clutch
I'll end up on the news

Keep them away
Lock the cabinet
I'll end my day
My action is passionate

Those you'd better hide
But I will find
All I've done is cried
Do you mind

I want them
I won't stop
I need them
I need another to pop

Leave them out
And I will gobble
Don't you doubt
Where's that bottle

Big or small
They tell a story
On someone short or tall
It's something about glory
Or how they had to crawl

Some people look away
Some people look in disbelief
Some forget that day
Others live in grief

Wounds to heal
Days to forget
Times to kneel
No time to sweat

They may never share
Of that tragic day
Or they may not even care
About what you have to say

We give them space
We look to the stars
We don't look at their face
We just leave them with their scars

Scatter my ashes
You can't keep them here
I know you've got me in stashes
Just let go my dear

Keep our memories
Say good-bye to my body
Please be at ease
Say good-bye to my body

I'll save you a place
Up here in heaven
I'm surrounded by grace
Up here in heaven

No need to worry
I found my way home
Clear your eyes so blurry
There's no need to roam

Scatter my ashes
You can't keep them here
I know you've got me in stashes
Just let go my dear

Hey you just listen to me
I'll tell you what I want from you
It's what's inside that you can't see
Perfections you seek but there are few

You hold all my secrets inside
Is that not enough for you?

What's the deal with this?
I give you all of me
But all you do is hiss
It's time to set me free

Just let go of my hand
Please forget my face

You go on your way
I'll lead the life of my own
There's nothing left to say
I just want you to leave me alone

She holds her pillow tight,
She closes those blue eyes,
She shuts out all the light,
And inside, she dies.

Wishing upon a bright star,
Her knight never comes.
Maybe he's not far.
He might come, so she waits.

Didn't think it'd take so long,
Dust is collecting on her.
She feels that she doesn't belong,
So she waits for her sir.

She see's him coming along,
The bouncing lanterns gleam.
She waited so long.
She wakes, it was just a dream.
So now she waits.

I don't think you still care.
You always make me cry.
Leave you? I don't dare,
But I do want to die.

Why is it so hard for you,
To just sit and talk me?
Tears fall from my eyes of blue,
Because your love I can't see.

You need to step it up,
Show me your love.
Just take it up a notch.
Do you need a shove?

I spend my nights wishing,
Wishing you would show me,
Show me that you still care,
And that you don't want to lose me.

I put it in
I turn in skyward
The world talks
But I haven't heard
I raise my chin

They all keep talking
I make a move
And they start gawking

I don't need a reason
But I have a good amount
They think I treason
Too many to count

Let's look ahead
Will they still wonder
What if I'm dead

I won't shout
You won't talk
I'm marked with silence
The world I block
I just shut it out

Thought I was goin' no where,
But then you stood by me.
Showed me your love and care.
You crashed into me.

I'm never letting you go.
This is where I want to.
I'm just goin' with the flow,
So please stand by me.

You're what I want,
And you're what I need.
You've got everything,
For me to succeed.

Look me in these eyes of blue,
Tell me what you see.
I'm not wearin' a disguise,
So please stand by me.

I can't stop the rain
I can't stop fate from calling
I can hide the pain
I can start crawling

It's hard to hold on
It's hard to stay strong
It's easy to move on
It's easy to say so long

I find myself in question
I find myself in confusion
I lose myself in an illusion
I lose myself in depression

I will forget my peers
I will forget the time
I will remember the years
I will remember the crime

I am a reject
I am tough
I am not perfect
I am not strong enough

I know he's out there
Somewhere looking for me
I'm waiting so patiently
But this wait is hard to bear

I'm reachin' out for someone
Does anyone hear my cries?
Reach me before sunrise
******* undone

Rescue me from this terror
Throw me out a line
I can't make another error
With you, everything will be fine

Please rescue me
Where is my Superman?
I need my Superman
I'm drowning in this sea

I'm waiting ever so calmly
I thought I saw you near
But it was just a dream I fear
I'm waiting ever so calmly

If you want to you can save me.
You can take me away from here.
Show me what I can't see.
Take away what I fear.

If you want to, you can.
Climb over this wall.
I hope you have a plan,
Because I'm about to fall.

I'm hiding in a dark place,
I want you to take me away.
I need a familiar face,
Because all I see is grey.

I'm sure you know how to,
Probably the only one who does honey.
All of this you already knew,
So please make my skies sunny.

My stomach cannot take it.
Take me away from the pain.
No more can I handle.
I'm stuck in the endless rain.

Take me home tonight
Don't let me out of your arms
Not even when we see the morning light

I want to hear you breathe
With a force of a hurricane
My heart you did sheathe
Now I smile in the rain

Hold me down
Let's skip this town

Let's live our life
Let's start today
No need for strife
I won't let you get away

Our own rules we will make
But we just can't break

Don't miss this chance
These feelings you can't cage
It's the perfect romance
Taken to a new stage

We'll fight the light
We don't need tomorrow
Take me home tonight

Perfectly painted
Oh so white
Those boys just fainted
Keep those **** tight

Perfect skin
With the perfect tan
Keep up your chin
They'll become a fan

You don't need love
Only fame
You'll rise above
They'll know your name

Bat those eyes
Watch them fall
Hear their cries
You make them crawl

Just remember
The Hollywood Pose
You're the next contender
Teeth, ****, and toes

Thank you for being you,
Thank you for being here,
And thank you for the cheer.

You heard all of my cries.
You chased away my fears.
You gave me no lies,
When you wiped away my tears.

You're always by my side,
Showing me some light.
You don't let me hide.
You make everything alright.

You make me feel love struck.
You make me feel on top.
You bring me such good luck.
Let's never let it stop.

Driving in my car
No need to pray
I don't need a wishing star

That night was ours
We held it in our hands
Lying under the stars
Lying in the sands

I can still feel your arm
Wrapped around me
You're loaded with charm
You make me feel free

I found light in your eyes
Safety in your arms
You told me no lies
Just protected me from nights harms

There were no secrets
You kept me from the cold
While I lay on your chest
That night I hold

One sentence is all it took
No more words could I utter
Out my window I was scared to look
My stomach was all a flutter

I stayed up all through the night
Thinking to myself
"If he were really to come,
Could I put up a fight?"

My eyes started to close, but
I mustn't go to sleep, because
Where I live is what he knows
Why is it he is such a creep?

The morning finally came
I was now able to breathe right
Last night he did not come,
So for now, I am safe

You talk
I don't listen
You wanna walk
You have my permission

You don't own me
You don't make my rules
I am free
Not one of your fools

I don't hear the words
Coming out of your mouth
You speak in herds
And you're heading south

When you speak
My ears go numb
I don't hear a squeak
Not even an um

I wish you would disappear
Just leave today
Because in the end
The less I hear
The less you say

It witnesses my pain
It masks my tears
Watches blood flow from my vein
Implants my brain with fears

It chases away the light
I want to escape
It gives me quite a fright
This feels like a *******

It lays me down
With my tears
Me, it tries to drown

It is my superior
It chooses my fate
I am inferior
It has the right bait

I'll never be lonely
With it by my side
It saves my life, if only
My happiness it will override

They'll check my wrist
They'll look me in the eyes
I'll throw in a twist
They won't check my thighs

It'll be easier to cover
My ***** little secret

So easily hidden
No one will ever know
I've done the forbidden

I don't need a jacket
I wear pants everyday

When they see the blood
I'll blame it on my time
The blood will scud
My scars will be sublime

It's not something to laugh at,
Why do you joke about it?

People out there sit and cry.
You just sit and stare.
You make them want to die.
Do you know this isn't rare?

You push them towards the ledge,
Do you want to see them jump?

Think twice before you talk.
Listen to them when they cry.
Watch them when they walk.
And try not to let them die.

They're always in a constant fight,
And it may never end.

Maybe you can save their life.
They need somebody to be there.
Take away their knife.
Show them you care.

Is it still true
Do I still make you glow
Or are you through

You said I'm a dream girl
That no one could compare
You said I was a pearl
You said I was rare

Where have you gone
Why aren't you here
It's almost dawn

We made a promise
I didn't take it lightly
You were my Adonis
I was your Aphrodite

I'm starting to not see
I just want to know

When I have something to fear
And you're not there

I close my eyes

I wish on a star

The distance I despise

I will not be a disaster.
i will set myself free.

You will be shut out.
You don't have any power.
This you cannot doubt,
My life, you can't devour.

15 thousand tears I've cried,
But no longer will they fall down.
My happiness you've denied,
But now you will drown.

You know what I have to do.
Tonight, you will die.

I don't know what made me start
But I fell in love with you

You weren't ready
But still I fell

I wasn't thinking clear
I hung by a thread

No one really knows me,
with all the stuff I hide.
I hide my pain constantly,
So I don't lose my pride.

Only thing they see are lies.
They'll never know what's inside.
They've never heard all my cries,
Even with how hard they've tried.

Do they even try?
Are they really that blind?
Let's see them cry.
A happy ending they won't find.

They try to wear my shoes,
But they will quickly go down.
Shortly they will lose,
Soon they will drown.

Chase away the grey

Don’t get too close
You’ll crumble
It’s not the life she chose
But she doesn’t grumble

You’ll turn pale
You’ll become ash
This isn’t a tale
You’ll be gone in a flash

If you get near
You have a last request
Steer clear
Or death will infest

She’ll choose your fate
If you take another stride
She’ll find the right bait
And a grave she’ll provide

I wasted my breath
Everything she touches
Turns to death

And they always stare
I just want to be free
Doesn't anybody care?

Everyday I lay here
Wishing away the pain
They don't know what I fear
I'm sure they think I'm insane

So many times I must say
"Leave me alone"
The price they'll have to pay
For attempting to turn me into a clone

When they say I don't belong

Look at me and see
See what you really wanna know, feel, and be
But you could never be me, no
Matter how hard you try, no
Matter how sick you get, no
Matter how many risks you take,
Or when you get pinched

Throw your hands in the air
Throw your money out the window

No one really cares, no one ever really does
They'll throw their hands in the air and your love out the window
They'll look you in the eyes and
You'll fall hard and see what I've been saying all along

At least that's what you said
Is this love now dead?
What lies was she fed?

Look straight into her eyes
Do you see how she cries?
**** herself? Yeah she tries
How so you feel about that?

Did you wast your time on her?
She thought your love was real
He love, was that a nice steal
Hos you think you make her feel?

Why is it I say nothing right?
Now I will never be fine.

Anything and everything is what we said,
Though I don't believe it anymore.
I fear that I'll find you dead,
Just lying there on the floor.

I hope you know I love you.
I hope you know I care.
Forever show those eyes of blue,
Because with you my life I share.

Now I will hide all the pain.

It lays in bed all day,
Wallowing in the pain.
I try to clear my head,
But then I go insane.

Try to convince myself it's over,
But I can't let go of the past.
Always he was there,
But then he left so fast.

Everywhere I see him,
I can't take the silence.
Just want to be with him.
I am growing way to tense.

He is stuck in my mind,
Haunting all my dreams,
Invading all my thoughts,
And planning all these schemes.

All these schemes to torture me,
He does it everyday.
All these tears he cannot see,
Falling from a sky so grey.

Day and night I put up a fight,
To stop the tears falling down my face.
I have to stop what is not right,
Or I will end up a disgrace.

Look at the people who care
They're right in front of you
Love is what they share
Don't you have a clue?

You hide all of this pain
I want to take it away
I want to stop the rain
What do you say?

Baby please stop your tears
Hope you know I love you

Get on that bed

But you're still up there
And I am close to dead

I was told I just need to believe
What am I suppose to believe in?
It's almost time for me to leave
I'm sorry but I'm about to sin

They said you would be with me
But now the truth I certainly can see

You're just as messed up
I don't know which way to turn
I can't find my way
Which bridge do I burn

I search for the light
I only find the dark
I hide deep in the night
I hide from the suns first spark

I pray for a solution
My head is spinning
I'm stuck in a delusion
My life I'm sinning

I seek out the truth
Now you see my pain
Depression devoured my youth
My happiness jumped on a train

I know where I belong
I know what I want
Which way do I turn
Your memories I'll haunt
