All i see is battle scars
Lined up and down my skin
And I will crash this car
Just so i won't win

Im half crazy and insane
With a knife in my hands
Im half bitter and vain
While i listen to the same ol' band

I want to rebuild and restake
This claim to fame
But the blood on my clothes
Looks unsafe and untamed

So I'll just sit in the back
While you sit there and laugh
At this joke of a human
And this waste of a life...

Love
Only
Values
Everything...

You call it uniqueness
I call it flaw
My marred appearance
Isn't good at all

There was a shortcoming
So blemished I appear
Defective my nature
So close and so dear...

I struggle with myself,
I struggle with my brain
it ain't that I'm a crazy
it ain't I'm gone insane

trauma changes people
deep within the mind
all that I am asking
is you be the loving kind,

I gotta thinkin problem
some things invade my thought,
I don't know when it happened
or if it was something I was taught,

so tell me I'm annoying
but don't say that I'm bad
tell me I am wonderful
in loving me your glad,

I will love you truly love
cuz I am true of heart
but maybe we are doomed you know
doomed we were the start,

but still,
too not seek the beauty in the experience,
seems to me a waste of both our precious precious time
when loving could be so amazing
exciting an sublime

I only ask you try
be present be with me
open up your mind and heart
only then we will see
if to love so unencumbered
will set our love so free,

only then we will know-

if you an I
were ever -
REALLY
meant to be.
