I never ask
I am glad to give
"Pushover Girl"
You reach, hands out
As I place your desires in them
Never to see them again
You have everything you wanted
What more is there to ask?
I duck-tape your mouth
And walk away
For there is one thing left
Worn and withered
From distrustful men
My heart now locked safe
Will never be opened again
I will be selfish and say
"No"

The pretty perfect girl
Appealing to see
Funny personality
A+ Grades to boot
Smiling from eye to eye
Stands out in every crowd
If she is the light
I am the shadow
Follows, the silent
Avoids, the cowardly
Invisible, the lonely
Forget, the bland
Quiet, the ignored
If there is a light
A shadow will follow
Someone show me the
Light, please.

They say I have horns
And that I hide a tail
That my teeth are sharp
And can bite though flesh
There are many rumors
Surrounding me
That I eat ears for lunch
And hearts for dinner
That I cheat on every test
And get first on every exam
The losers whisper in the corner
Just because they can't do better
The rumors are chained to me
They are the first thing people hear
And the first thing they think
When they see me
I am more then these rumors
But my words get turned
And form into arrows pointed at me

The strings pull
My hand raises
My legs move
Someone is controlling
The Puppet Master
Behind the scenes
The show we put on
The Devil in the audience
Enjoying the discomfort
In our movements
Everyone laughs
At the dances that were done
But we are all puppets
In the show God created

You hate the sound
Of joyful laughter
If I find it funny
Is it wrong to laugh
With the foe
Of my friend
Now laughing is
Forbidden when about you
But it is funny
How the words spoken
From the fiend are true
You fall into the trap
Made by words of his
And I laugh in the corner
At how helpless you are
Then you saw
Now my only comfort
Is also gone
This quiet world of mine
Can never be filled again

I live my days
Carrying a heavy burden
Knowing that my heart is
A black hole
I feel nothing everyday
Walk though the halls
Among people like a ghost
Where feeling and emotions
There is a black hole
Eyes glued to the tiled floor
No point in looking at your face
Whether you smile, cry, or frown
My mouth is a straight-line
I look anywhere but you
'Cause my I have a black hole
Living inside me

You see me swaying around
Unable to stay steady or straight
But I make it to my house
Up in the mountains where
The grass grows wilder and greener
I put the bottle down hard
And sing my sorrows to the moon
The world is holding its breath
A few moments of silence
The woods are listening quietly
As animals gather around the
Sad drunk singing her sorrows
