I am just a foolish fisherman
Fishing for the fish for me
Of all the fish in this blue sea
Only one is right for me

I wake at dusk
And cast til dawn
I catch a few
And throw them back
They're not the one for me

Day by day I try
But all to no avail
This lonely heart can only think
Maybe there is no fish for me

Day by day I waste away
When a fish approaches me
Casts its line, and reels me in
This fish has captured me

I am just a foolish fisherman
But my heart is filled with glee
Today I've learned a lesson
I, too, am a fish inside the sea

Send your condolences,
I'm falling
Please don't forget
I'm calling
Out the name in which
I'm falling for
Is you
I want to escape from my sadness
It's taking over me
Why can't I just rest?
Why won't it let me be?
I just want to be free.
Some call it crazy
Some say it's sick
But I think it's freedom.
The blade is sharp and cold.
Sorry my vein.
Even my mother does not know me
She only sees who she wants to see.
Cut my arm,
Is the only way to escape.
Do they realize their actions affect me so?
I don't know..  I don't know...
If I told you why I did it,
you would not understand.
who would even care if I died?
no one!
Hey tears i am still smiling....

Drops of rain against the window pane
Sink into each wooden grain
Thoughts come flooding into my brain
Close behind come waves of pain

Crashing all around me
All I can see is rain
I want this pain to go away

"Two a day"
The doctors say
"Take two a day,
and the pain
will go away"

And two a day
Is what I take
To numb the pain

But still remains
The pain inside
My brain
when i sit
at a table
with people
i know
dont want me

when i drink
can after can
cup after cup
of electricity
and anxiety

when i dont
want to go home
but cant stay
here

when its after one am
and im still crying
out of my eyes
and out of my arms
and my legs
and my stomach


when i want to run
in all directions
at once

when i sing

when i speak

i feel
myself crawling
out of my skin
I've been keeping my hair short
Because you liked it long,
And I'm not strong enough
To relive the feeling I got
When you ran your hands through it.

So I'll continue to cut off
The ends that are dead
Because you are too
And it makes me feel closer to you
Somehow.
