I'm gonna need some time
to think things over
I'm gonna go outside
and breathe some air

Today will go down
in my insignificant history
as the day you fractured my heart
If your gonna leave now,
please, don't come back

I wish you were made of crystal
so I could see your veigns
but I would probably break you
A clumsy boy's not easy to train

I wish your mind
was as clearly defined
as the curves of your body
I wish your book was easier to read

I wish you were made of crystal
so I could see your veigns
but I would probably break you
A clumsy boy's not easy to train

i dont feel like
jumping in front of cars
anymore, at least not
yet, i put my
flaws on hold
to feel 15 again.

i go for a
walk along a
path ive taken
before, many
times even.
i am new
but there is
old blood
in these veigns
that hide deep.

i dont feel like
jumping in front of cars
anymore. i still
remember the
thought, the feeling.
sometimes that can be
enough.

i am in debt to
peace and i owe it
more
than i have.
but its taken
too long to break
even. i scored
no points
and tied the game
still.
an ode to getting junk food from the corner store at home for the first time in awhile.

The toxicity of life,
I feel it pulsing through my veigns,
like the venom of a snake,
vision so blured that I cannot see,
work, money, house, family,
whilst life quietly passes by,
tip toeing past like a cat to a bird,
the clock ticks louder everyday,
beating like a drum,
louder and louder in my head,
time to spread these wings and fly.
fly away, soaring to destinations unkown.

I confessed my love for you
You say you just wanted to be friends

Though I agreed
I feel like my heart was ripped apart
I feel like all the blood in my veigns has poured out upon the floor
I feel like the world is ending
I feel like I am burning to ashes inside  a mighty fire

I confessed my love to you
You said you just wanted to be friends
I'm cool with that
Really

Like a thorn from a rosebush
Sticking in my veigns
This world is making me insane
Lord I need your light to help me through

Blood is she'd tears are spilt
For my sins and my gilt
Lord I need your mercy and your grace

Headed down a one way street
Into a brick wall I can't see
Life goes by to quickly sometimes

Lord help me slow down
Give me the strength
Help me take one moment at a time

— The End —
