I cradled you, I cared like you were mine
Yet I never got the care back from you
When someone asks if I’m ok, I say fine
But where is the melody we danced to?

You can’t clot hurt the same way you can blood
Yet everyday I strive to stop the pain
You killed my light, and it fell with a thud
I look down at myself and see your stain

But in the distance I see a new light
A new chance for me to stop at nothing
I want to care for someone but they bite
Just like you, so often that it’s numbing

So maybe it’s not you who doesn’t try
Maybe I was just built to care and cry

I saw everything in her eyes
The darkness of grief,
The faith and beliefs
Her mothers smile, her fathers dreams
Yet she asks why would anyone love her.
I asked ever saw your eyes?
She kept asking what that means
I replied Bother your slumber some day and look in the mirror,
She kept smiling since.

I have to forget.

That's all I can do
if I want to be anything
like I used to.

When I was whole,
when my heart was in one piece.

A few months before
your careless love destroyed me.

Simulated tastes
Emulated face
Of a careless faker

Think in haste,
Take and you take,
Living life as if it were a race

What will you say, when you meet your maker?

the silence hangs in the air suspended,
it doesn't drift,
it just floats,
waiting for someone to make a move,
waiting for something to improve,
but instead,
all that's left,
are careless words,
and broken souls.

Dancing on the cliff of the world
singing to the sun

My sanity is gone
tired of being the pawn
it's only bones on the lawn
with spite in each bone
it's alter ego is all alone
my insanity is grown

Itch those *****, player
Itch them red raw
Bleeding?, who cares!
Embrace your oozy pores
Itchy itchy morning rise
Scratchy scratchy nights
Give me a show I'd like to forget
Make me close up tight
Itch those *****, giant manchild
Itch them to completion
Whatever you got to do, do
During itchy and scratchy season
