You could blame the system for your father's
Disappearance regarding for what he's been
Through facing all these obstacles,
I
Have nothing to say if you possess a dark past,
I
Want nothing to do with all your reckless acts,
Things,
In life don't make sense at times that's why we
Pivid,
It stings,
When a human being dies and has been put into dirt
It makes you timid,
Life's too short but it remains complicated,
Your family is torn apart , mom and dad separated,
The love you had was gone , it moved to another state,
You try to cope but life doesn't allow you to relate.

I hope that certainty cures my sanity,
In all of this mess,
I hope my anxiety doesn't lie to me then cheat on me,
With my stress,
Snap my fingers and the lights go out,
But unable to get any rest,
So I lay here in the darkness,
Tired and cold,
This world can't tear me apart from myself,
I will never cut myself on this rusty bumper,
Maybe she forgot to tell her lover,
Maybe he forgot to tell his mom,
Maybe silence says a thousand words,
Maybe salvation will come,
I hope that certainty cures my sanity,
When I talk it's like I can get out of anything,
I tie my hands in hopes that I will never see
The light in anything.

Sticking to it like fresh blood on a white
And tile bathroom floor,
Hiding my face in shame cause im stuck
Inside and i'm needing more,
Empathy to get me through the day so i
Could sparkle bright as the river,
Sitting in a dark room but i should be thinking
Things more clearer,
goosebumps all over my chest,
I need a nap or maybe a rest,
Stored good memories in a safe place of my mind
But forget the rest,
I need to know that this is test,
You wanna throw away the key?  Then let's,
Stray off into a wonderland where all the
Creatures consider you a pest.
