Sit with them, laugh with them
enjoy with them, smile with them
you don't know what their mind's racing on
looking so calm
yet fighting a thousand battles within
the last person you expect
to disappear,
might lose the battle and even the war
for you might be the first one to
wake up tomorrow
and long to see them
just once, just once.

they say pain isn't good
it only brings harm
but then how would his poem glow?
if it wasn't there
who would bring out the depth, the meaning
hidden deep beneath
his song needs the lyrics
the lyrics to make me say
how does he know how i feel

The roads, deserted
everything's come to a standstill
people are still leaving
leaving common sense at home
value for life? none
the only thing hitting the road
should be rays of the sun
new levels of disregard
it's my nails, i have to get them done
sitting thousands of miles away,
i clenched my fist

Some things i would love to forget among some regrets
Try to run away but alas, my mind's a steel cage
all these thoughts popping up like it's popcorn
and that is why the earphones are always in
awake at night because it's so hushed
so quiet that my own thoughts can be heard
not afraid of being alone in the dark, afraid of being alone with them
subconsciously there is no control, they are  running wild and rampant
i want to wake up but i am engulfed by that dream
Can't some noise wake me up? why can't someone drop a plate
I want to be woken up, otherwise there is no escape
It's so quiet in the night
that to get in,
even the sun tiptoes
