Blood runs down my arm
Then down my chest
But does no harm.

I've failed to last
I've broken down
I've been swallowed by my past

This just shows the truth
They got it right
I am no match for my youth

friend

I only smoke when I'm stressed,
So basically all the time.

But I'll never outrun these demons
As long as the dead are on my mind.

Yet somehow its too much to ask of anyone,
If they'll just be a friend of mine.

The little things I say to you in passing
Are really the biggest things in my mind amassing

We don't Know

Did you know
That beauty demands to be seen?

At least...I believe it does

I think
that all the greatest beauty,
comes from broken beaten people

I believe the breakers and the beaters are afraid.
I believe they see the beauty in us
before anyone else ever does,

And they get so terrified
of being lost in others light

So they beat them down.
Beat Us down

Those people who called you ugly
the people who called me *****

they saw the beauty inside us
and they were afraid

But lets be brave
Lets not return the favor
Our only savior

Is to be better than them
Is to show them that we,
will use the beauty inside us,
to shine a light on them

This is pretty terrible
but whatever
needed to say it

My Heart

There is a place
where no one goes
Where darkness is your friend

Where birds and bees,
and other thieves
Can never steal your heart

Now i don't know
just where ya been
Or where your goin to.

But i don't care,
as long as I
Get to go there too

The trees they laugh,
the clouds they cry
And all the others inbetween,

just sit and stare
at no one there,
at all the empty dreams

Wolves howl at night
But They've lost their fright
To all we say and do

And it makes me sad
When you are glad
That we don't care no more

test the air

Learn to be wrong
and you'll grow strong

I don't regret the things that I've done
I don't regret having fun

We all make mistakes
We all have heartaches

You will always have done something wrong
Waiting will always take too long
So do what makes you strong

Take the leap test the air
Or you never will know what's really out there

Alejandro

We never had enough time
to romp and stomp and chyme

through fields and glades
like jolly little milk maids

but we still got lost in the by and by.
We waded through the sky
and chanced upon our first lie.

That we would live forever
that we could grow old together

but it will never be better than now.

But those were the days
When we lived in a happy haze.

Life was a dream
A melancholy scheme

to send us to the depths of sadness

to the depths of cold
where we will truly grow old
alone but bold
for truly we lived a life of gold.
