#punching
How many times Have I put my knuckles through these walls? Not enough times evidently Because my blood still boils Rage surging through contracting muscles At least it was only the wall

****** Knuckles

Punching Bag
"At least I have a girlfriend...." everyone laughs Yeah I may be going solo Here's something you should know, though I had a girlfriend once too But now I am on my own "I bet you think you're so hard Did she get rid of you? Did you dump her? Was it because you're a ****** And have nothing better to do?" everyone laughs again Nah, I am not ******** I just extinguished the fire I started Because the stress was killing me I may be cold sometimes, But I ain't no beast I've got a heart too, I guess Though I wouldn't mind if you were laid to rest Because if these insults are some form of test The only thing you're wasting is your breath "Nah, I'm just showing how much better I am And how having a girlfriend makes me a man" Last time I checked, to be a man, You didn't need A girl to beat Do you understand? "Aw, **** off **** You're just being a ***** Why don't you just bend over And go **** on someone's' **** A few people shake their heads I just said I had a girlfriend What, because I'm single means I'm suddenly gay? Tell you what mate, I still like girls Oh, and by the way... If you don't beat your girlfriend Why is her face all cuts and bruises? Did you do it because you're a "man?" I really hate you losers Hit a girl for no reason "Awww it's coz I'm tough" impersonates drunk, gets a few laughs It's pronounced "girl" not "punching bag" Do you want to know what's rough? "No, what's rough" Drunken man takes a swing, misses "My fist"

Solo
I know we are both human. We both make mistakes. But I 'am NOT your  punching bag. You are scratching, shoving, and crushing me. And I'm trying to run, jump and duck from all the words you throw at me. But it seems like the ground is rumbling and turning me around back to your horrid words. And it feels like every word that you speak brings me down. Each word breaking and taring me slowly. I guess I am your punching bag after all. I'm fixed up with tape and glue, holding on by a cord.

Punching bag.
Being the Academy Sports discount punching bag was so yesterday I love it when you say I'm not good enough Because I didn't pay you to be my personal coach It gives me so much depth in my existence When so many people who barely knew me tried to slow down the inevitable win

Inevitable
I want it to be like you're in the guestroom like we had a "guestroom" or second restroom but the focus then is on earning potential on gain on capital instead of the lie still stuck in your throat. I smell it: your gullet... the living room is rancid with it.. the rot still lingering on the barely shod curtain rod. My senses have no room and the anger is in my tongue and fists and I am writhing and punching SCREAMING and you... are finally leaving.

Thank God.
I just want to scream cry shout punch and tear something apart.. All into one. I want to stand on top of a mountain and do the same and if not, I'd just stand still and laugh all about it.. All into one.

Punching Bags and Mountains
Tonight there's nothing                     Look left look right                     Nothing left in sight.                               My eyes so open very wide.                 But everything,everyone is left to hide.                                                       Cause from inside I found.                   It's the punches we take pound for pound.                                                       That eventually leave us bruised and down.                                                           But now there's no one left to frown.                                           Nothingness an emotional wreck.                                         As far as the eyes could see as far as your legs could treck.                         Now what went wrong along the way                                         Found someone else yesterday.       Now all I am, all I was is left behind.                                         Nothingness down roads we wind.                                               But what we don't see.                             Is nothingness is to be free.           Believe in me                                           now is what I see                                       to make a change                       Completely rearrange                         Now I see.                                               That this nothingness is a beginning to a new me....
