overwhelmed
Crying out Drown me now Submerged In pool upon pool Of my own stress Clear Each drop Translucent loneliness Submerged down Within the Thought That I might always Be here Oh dear Call to make sure Each Day’s Okay I smile so wide it pushes you away Irony in the lonely Never fades Lying here And here I Stay Drowning once again

Overbearing
I love you, Her boyfriend used to say Every time he missed her birthday by a day. Those three little words accompanied with Thanks for your forgiveness, That she never really gave Beneath her false smiles. You are beautiful, Belongs to her mother Who dressed her up in frills that itched And tied doll ribbons in her hair. You are gorgeous, Whispered her second husband Only in bed and not When she had morning breath and hair, And needed to hear those words then. I hate you, Never slips past her painted lips While shining so brightly in her eyes.

What I Didn't Say
Tell me how it feels when you slide into bed at night knowing you lied to everyone you've ever loved? Tell me does it hurt when your mom is overly religious and you believe she is insane? Tell me does it hurt when your dad is too zoned out in old war movies to even notice you're crying in the corner? I've never dealt with your pain. My family was open and honest and accepting of who I was and wanted too be. I've never dealt with your pain of finding something, anything, to get you through the day without the inside of your head screaming at you. But, I have dealt with the sadness. I have dealt with the anxiety of not being good enough. So I say to you, you are not alone. And when the sun shines but all you see is grey and sadness; I will be there for you.

Never Alone
Nobody likes me now I don't care Everybody hates me now They've got some nerve.. Everybody's looking down I'm feeling cyclical What should I do about These ******** Pariah Sin in over abundance Liar Reality could never change Despondent Sacrifice util it's incumbent Pariah You love the fair exchange Gauge the metric By which you judge The proper usage Harsher than the light on my keyboard Often peckish Killing skeptics The proper usage It all falls in the same vein Forgiveness to a fault line My god All I've ever wanted was a new design Hiding away in the suffering Fudge the figure for the slumbering Drab as they may come Welcome to the whole **** phylum Encroaching on the underlying theming And everyone seems confused I took the world In my hands Looked down Then up again They all were screaming About the meaning Under god Claiming that they were free men No resolve left, I stopped listening

My future is all planned out But not by me My parents took it upon themselves , y'see They want me to succeed But not at something that interests me "You'll never work a day in your life If you truly love your job" If that's so then I suppose Work is all my life will ever be If you won't let what I do Be decided by me

My Future
Tell me what to do, and push me away from you, as your control fills my head, make me wish that I was dead. Don't let me find out for myself, so when I face adversity, it will take my mental health, and fill my life with controversy. But hey, at least you wached my back, So I learned to not expect an attack, So when it came, I was slain, as my ignorance became my bane. But you were right and I was wrong, I should have listened all along, I will pay, that's what you say, If only I had followed your way. So now I lay bloodied and dying, and in my heart I know I'm lying, to tell myself that you were always right, merely to avoid a childish fight, I should have looked behind my back, as it was you who had attacked.

Attack
An over-analytic, overbearing, misguided idiot. That about sums it up.
