I want to change things.
I want to make today
Better than yesterday,
And tomorrow
Better than today.
I want to touch people’s lives
And give them a hope
In the knowing
That this doesn’t have to be all there is,
That their dreams aren’t out of their reach
That everything they’ve ever wanted
Is just over the horizon,
If only they’ll pull their heads up out of the sand
And chase after it.

But I can’t do it in this cookie-cutter plan
For what my future is supposed to hold.
I don’t want a business degree,
A corner office,
2.5 kids,
And a golden retriever.

I want to take this crazy passion
That everyone but me thinks is just a waste of time
And run with it.
I don’t know where it’ll take me
And I don’t care…
I just have to go.

sadness floods through my body like a tidal wave
it's pulling me under, under, under
drowning out all reason and hope
someone save me

Mister, can you hear me?
As I call to you in this nights smolder.
Mister, please stop,
I can't feel anything anymore.
I lay here, in your arms,
Struggling in the snow.
Your heat is radiating,
And I'm burning in your shadow.
I push against your body,
Responding with a crack,
My head is now on fire,
With red stains upon your lap.
Mister, are you done?
You've left me here in fear.
The snow flakes fall as ashes,
Melting in my tears.

Sin Is what I live for , What we cant have is what we lust for , The forbidden fruit Is what we ask for , Trouble souls are who we are!!! As we spend our nights walking the boulevard. Day and night we roam till we find our home , where we belong....

To me she's everything
to her im nothing the
thought of her completes
me feeling like nothing
could defeat me you
moved i stayed went in
for a hug and you swayed
told you how i felt and got
played everytime i look up
what's this cold feeling on
my face oh rain can't see
the pain but it's their like
a sleeping bear you say
i changed for good or bad
from better to worst why
won't you love me that'll
always bug me i'm glad
you never said **** me
but you'll always duck me
in the summer you mystery girl
were my world in the winter
hope'd you'd be my girl in
the spring who knows what'll
bring but in the fall i just want
to end it all oh my sweet
Mystery girl

I'd rather be

somebody's need
than
           simply
                       a desirable commodity.
