while I sit in the room alone in the dark I give nothing but time to these awful thoughts Eating away at my decaying brain the weak is weakend by the constant pain I'm doing all that I can you see, giving you every single piece of me yet here we are with paper and pen, you can take my blank page and fill it in because how I hear it, correct me if i'm wrong, is that this is just your unwritten song So you take my heart and string it along is it your arms that I still belong? like a little girl I sit and wait make a wish and count on fate this is the mess that you have made took the book and destroyed the page. and on the shelf I go again lost in space with a few more friends collecting dust and making amends waiting on that other hand he lends Take a step back, make sure you're certain I feel like you are writing your own version my chapter said this and yours said that so here we are with half an act So tell me what is on my mind, read my book before father time take my heart and spill it out read each line slowly without any doubt You think you know this book, better then anyone here I think you misunderstood the point, you've read only one chapter....fear' Theres a few more chapters you need to read the easy ones, like friends, and family cause those are the chapters that i've written before, something I know about a little more The chapters missing are far to advanced the ones I can't write because I don't understand like love, and loss, and breaking hearts I hide from the truth alone in the dark Alone in the dark on that shelf I sit just an over read book that no longer fits as time goes on I ponder a bit flip through old chapters before I finally quit The future is bright, or so they say the unwritten words are ours today so take the book off the shelf, take me down sense you've offered help grab my pen and bring me paper, this book of mine we will write together you will talk and I will listen reading off the pages that have yet to be written.

My Book
while I sit in the room alone in the dark I give nothing but time to these awful thoughts Eating away at my decaying brain the weak is weakend by the constant pain I'm doing all that I can you see, giving you every single piece of me yet here we are with paper and pen, you can take my blank page and fill it in because how I hear it, correct me if i'm wrong, is that this is just your unwritten song So you take my heart and string it along is it your arms that I still belong? like a little girl I sit and wait make a wish and count on fate this is the mess that you have made took the book and destroyed the page. and on the shelf I go again lost in space with a few more friends collecting dust and making amends waiting on that other hand he lends Take a step back, make sure you're certain I feel like you are writing your own version my chapter said this and yours said that so here we are with half an act So tell me what is on my mind, read my book before father time take my heart and spill it out read each line slowly without any doubt You think you know this book, better then anyone here I think you misunderstood the point, you've read only one chapter....fear' Theres a few more chapters you need to read the easy ones, like friends, and family cause those are the chapters that i've written before, something I know about a little more The chapters missing are far to advanced the ones I can't write because I don't understand like love, and loss, and breaking hearts I hide from the truth alone in the dark Alone in the dark on that shelf I sit just an over read book that no longer fits as time goes on I ponder a bit flip through old chapters before I finally quit The future is bright, or so they say the unwritten words are ours today so take the book off the shelf, take me down sense you've offered help grab my pen and bring me paper, this book of mine we will write together you will talk and I will listen reading off the pages that have yet to be written.
