Lost


I want to live on an island, but only if nobody is there.  
I want to shine like a diamond in the sun lights reflection,
But I am finding it hard to find anybody who cares.


Love is never solitary,
But that is all I can be.
Right now, until I am ready to go steady, I shall remain alone;
With no need for a lover to call my own.


A broken heart, a darkened soul;
A lover no more, devoid of hope.
Ten souls on board, no more, no less;
Ten souls sinking down into the abyss.


I'd love to help you, if only I could find the right time;
They say time heals all wounds, but we know they are lying.
Take me in to cure your boredom; the sun no longer shines.
What have we done to all the fallen hearts that are all still dying?


I have nothing left to hide, you took my heart;
You took my pride, you took everything!
When you walked out of my life.
Now all I see is death through these eyes.


The ones who are lost,
Still rot in your imagination.
I am up the creek without a paddle
And you are never here to help me,
When I am desperately in need of a little direction.

I saw you today, for the very last time,
I waved you goodbye and wiped the tears from my eyes.
I wondered, would I see you again?
But inside I knew the truth, you were gone this time.


Pain is all I have to remember you by now.
The sunshine has gone; all I see now is dark clouds
And happy couples and smiling faces…
Aargh!
Why is everybody so ****** happy?

Falling in love


In love with you was never easy;
I fell for you and landed flat on my face.


We fall and became undone, lacking in trust;
Love echoes inside each and every one of us.
We try to believe, but life takes it out of us,
Because love is killed, once you have broken that trust.


I’ve got high hopes of leaving you forever;
High hopes of moving on without you.
High hopes I had, when we first got together.
No hope is all I have now thanks to you.


Take a pill to numb the pain;
Every day is never/always the same.
Teach me how to feel again;
So I can hear you when you call my name.


My love and I want to die;
We used to believe, until we cried.
Now all we believe is too many times,
We have had to say goodbye.

A Loner


Some people just have to be alone,
Not all of us get to find love.
Not all of us can be happy,
Most of us will spend our lives miserable.


But I shall save you from my misery,
I won’t let you end up like me.
For I only bring peace, love and empathy;
Disguised as my love (inside is a disease).


A ball of confusion,
A web woven by the fallen;
The women of past, present and future;
All gang up to tell me I’m a loser.


So **** me please,
I beg for death.
I can’t have love,
So I would rather be dead.
Than live one more second
On this putrid Earth.


It disgusts me,
It sickens me,
I despise having to live in this world.

Years and years


Disposable memories lost with broken phones;
Praying for a little more light when I am all alone.
Wishing for a peaceful day, but that is not the way today will go.
I am lost upon a star of a dreamer mind of long ago.


Those days we had were only fleeting;
Gone too fast to remember the meeting,
Which changed our lives forever more.
Those painful days that left us broken down here on the floor.


Looking up and waiting, praying,
Saying anything to make things change;
But today is not for changing, so things remain the same.
I am but a child inside, a half-lived life, a moment in time,
Lost to the ether, floating high above;
Looking down upon myself for never being good enough,
To live the life I had in my hands.
I had the laughs but took no chance.


And now the hour has passed
And all I am left with is no way to turn back
And take the gift you gave to me;
Your endless love, your empathy,
Your courage in the face of fear,
Those years and years and years and years.

You set my heart on fire


You set my heart on fire.
You, are the only one that I desire.
Without you I am cold inside.
So do you want me or shall I just die?

Alex
It stabs me every night
Giving me the worst fright
When I can see it in front of me
I want to cry or scream

The memories, the scenarios
Some include loved ones' burials
They are mostly fake, I can see
But I can't stop them from coming

I cry every night, depression? I'll never know
Sometimes I'm fine, but it hits me with a fatal blow
I can't stop feeling this way,
So please, don't try to help, it won't help anyway

I feel insane like rational thought has flown away
I know it isn't true, but I'm scared, so it'll stay
It seems to feed off my sadness, my fear, every inch of my being
And it makes me feel guilty, for, well, living.

I talk to my friends, talk to my family
They say, "You're fine, it'll go away"
So I try to ignore the screaming in my head,
But when I fail, I just cry myself to sleep instead

— The End —
