Me
My words
Your dreams
My swords
Your screams
My reasons
And your laughter
Different seasons
And our happy ever after
Everything was fake
With couple of lies
The decisions we make
Only lead us to dark sad cries
Hearts became hollow
And soul so empty
Averse, we follow
Even after turning twenty
Life is rude
And life is harsh
Like a mottle brood
Who stays in marsh
There is no love for one
And love for all
It's either said and done
Or nothing at all
I choose to be alone
And to stay on my side
Never sad or lone
Is now how life's roller coaster I ride

It's the black and white memories,
the one's that we all try to hide,
but the more that's blocked, the more you see,
and you can't erase what's inside.

She tells her story, and it's heartbreaking,
while you say sorry you're both shaking,
you tell yourself this is real, but you're really feeling numb,
that's how you always feel when you're at Don's Plum.

She tells her fears to quiet mirrors,
and expresses her sadness and stress.
Through all the tears she prays someone hears her,
because it's gotten to madness and she's become a mess.

In the booth you're all laughing, sharing the old jokes,
but the cigarette smoke is masking your instinct to choke.
You think you're made of steel, but you know you're just ****,
that's how you always feel when you're at Don's Plum.

Every song you hear is nostalgic,
and it brings a smile to your face,
within the whispers is a hint of magic,
but the topics are lacking charm and grace.
And every soul that wanders in, is worse when they're outside,
for everyone is born of sin, but we sure all seem satisfied.

She tells you her story, and it's heartbreaking,
it all came before me and the choices I'm making.
You've lost track of how to deal, you say the issues are dumb,
and that's how you always feel when you're at Don's Plum.
Loosely based off the banned indie film "Don's Plum."

The leaves fall again
In this harsh summer weather,
The difference is,
It's the greener ones rather
The usual half dead leaves

In a world where we all
fight to survive,
very few have the
luxury
to live

I fell that, I am slipping into a imaginary world. A world that will not let me believe it's reality. A world full of hope and dreams that comes true but for me that world does not exist. I only see reality at it's hardest. The way it breaks people or even destroys them. Some can bare the weight but others can't and get smashed by it.
Stay in Imaginary land were it's safe

i feel like a balloon
you may see me go up
and up and up
but little do you know

i'll have the harshest fall

Breathless, unable to grasp humanity.
Drowning in others mistakes.
Losing grip on my sanity,
Caused by these profanities.

Exclaimed by others in power.
Standing over me in their towers,
Just to shower themselves with greed
As I’m left to bleed and weep in pain
All for their gain.

Its all just a ******* game…
My life, my heart all up for grabs.
All for a life in a lab?

Might as well just stab me.
I will endure less suffering.
Than living in a cage,
With a stamp of my age
And a page on the labels placed upon me,
By those who think they own me.

Breathless, unable to grasp what happened to humanity…
As I lose the rest of my sanity…

War and hate are the human ways,
...The purest of us, the gentle and kind,
Without them we wouldn't know how to fill our days.
...Cannot avoid having hate on their mind.
.
There will come a day, like all species before,
...Alike as well as those species by default,
When the human race will be no more.
...Our end too shall come at the humans' fault.
.
We wish and hope that our ways will change,
...But the reality tells us there is no way,
That we can find ways of living that aren't so strange.
...Death and destruction is just how we play.
