Please splatter me onto the pavement
like
sunday morning jelly on toast.
I can examine each
single
blade of grass from this sweet high
but all I’m asking for is some **** sleep.

Tonight, yet again,
I just cannot sleep,
I hurt so bad,
So much; I can't even weep.
Control over you is something so hard to keep,
But *******,
This time,
I went too deep.
You're so beautiful; so thick and red,
All I see is memories of us in my head,
How every time we meet,
Is a time I always dread,
But our secret is one I have never spread,
And no goodbyes were ever really said.
But you're no good for me anymore,
You always leave me a mess,
Lying lifeless on the floor,
The choices I made with you were always poor,
But you raise the hairs on my skin,
And yet, every morning I always turn out sore.
You're just an old flame I can't seem to shake,
No more of my time will you take,
This decision is one I wish I was strong enough to make,
But, for now,
My hatred for you is something I will have to fake.

I lost myself a time ago, I don't know who I am
I used to be someone else, I used to be a better man
It just got so complicated, it was more than I could take
So I slipped further away with every decision that I made
I never thought about the consequence as I lived day by day
I never considered the man I'd become or the bed I'd lay
Now I try so f#@king hard to remember who I used to be
Cause I don't recognize the man in the mirror staring back at me

Welcome to my crazy life
Welcome to the fear I hide inside
Do you know what it's like
To hear the screams I hide inside

I try to hold my head up high and I try to chase my dreams
But it seems the more I try I just get by with broken wings
So I find it hard to get up and face another day
I just lay there in my bed wishing that I could stay
At least I can say that I have perpetual love
Thanks to my heart, our two awesome boys, and my angel from above
They give me reason to live on and they give me reason to breathe
They are my motivation when I'm out of gasoline

Welcome to my crazy life
Welcome to the fear I hide inside
Do you know what it's like
To hear the screams I hide inside

I began making changes in my life in the past few months
I quit the drugs and the lies along with other stuff
Though its still hard to get by I swear that I won't quit
I'll keep fighting the urge everyday and dealing with the ****
And if I never make it big and no one knows my name
I'll still know that I tried and be happy just the same
Because I'll still have the love of my friends and family
No matter how successful I am they will always be there for me

Welcome to my crazy life
Welcome to the fear I hide inside
Do you know what it's like
To hear the screams I hide inside
Sometimes I write just to see what I create. ~ RR
