Magical Forest
The forest in the night would glisten
During the day it was dark
But no one seemed to listen
When I said there was magic in the bark
The trees alone were exquisite
They tangled so devine
Sadly, though, I could barely fit
When I tried to squeeze through the vines
When I freed myself from the mess
I would call out to the wild
The forest, I must confess
Was not a place for a child
I analyze my options
See, even though I had a penchant for the trees
Tomorrow I am up for adoption
But yet I still can't seem to leave
During the day it was dark
But no one seemed to listen
When I said there was magic in the bark
The trees alone were exquisite
They tangled so devine
Sadly, though, I could barely fit
When I tried to squeeze through the vines
When I freed myself from the mess
I would call out to the wild
The forest, I must confess
Was not a place for a child
I analyze my options
See, even though I had a penchant for the trees
Tomorrow I am up for adoption
But yet I still can't seem to leave

Evil Paradise
The Earth is like a paradise
It bleeds like an iron rose
But our success doesn't suffice
To fix what the earth throws
The Earth is like a paradise
It breathes without our knowing
And it seems to roll its own dice
Without any hint of showing
The Earth is like a paradise
Although it controls us all
But the fact of that price
Seems to conquer our secret fall
The Earth is like a paradise
An evil one to be exact
Where the release of death is nice
It is proven to be a well known fact
The Earth is like a paradise...
It bleeds like an iron rose
But our success doesn't suffice
To fix what the earth throws
The Earth is like a paradise
It breathes without our knowing
And it seems to roll its own dice
Without any hint of showing
The Earth is like a paradise
Although it controls us all
But the fact of that price
Seems to conquer our secret fall
The Earth is like a paradise
An evil one to be exact
Where the release of death is nice
It is proven to be a well known fact
The Earth is like a paradise...

I think
Sometimes I lie awake at night
And think of the battles I've tried to fight
I think of how no matter where I go
I find the ground always empty of sacred, white snow
I think of the tears that have threatened to fall
But instead spend days trying to stall
I think of how life tries to change
But only succeeds in being more derrange
I think of how I spend hours reading and leaving my thoughts
When in reality, one could go crazy in that very spot
Then, last of all, I think of when I think
Because that's when my thoughts go crazy in one little blink
And think of the battles I've tried to fight
I think of how no matter where I go
I find the ground always empty of sacred, white snow
I think of the tears that have threatened to fall
But instead spend days trying to stall
I think of how life tries to change
But only succeeds in being more derrange
I think of how I spend hours reading and leaving my thoughts
When in reality, one could go crazy in that very spot
Then, last of all, I think of when I think
Because that's when my thoughts go crazy in one little blink

Past Reference
The past consumes us all
We forget to look ahead
Yet our history seems so small
When we're compared to the dead
Yes, our history molds our mental state
And yes, it makes who we are
But it does not choose our fate
And will not drop us very far
If you close your eyes and think
"Tomorrow is a brand new day,"
Your history's importance will shrink
Because your future is no longer far away
We forget to look ahead
Yet our history seems so small
When we're compared to the dead
Yes, our history molds our mental state
And yes, it makes who we are
But it does not choose our fate
And will not drop us very far
If you close your eyes and think
"Tomorrow is a brand new day,"
Your history's importance will shrink
Because your future is no longer far away

Nothing will change
Fire will always blaze your soul.
It cannot be fixed with shame.
You have yet to pay your toll.
You have never known your role.
You cannot be described as tame.
Fire will always blaze your soul.
You will never have a respectful goal.
You have yet to experience blame.
You have to pay your toll.
Your heart will always have an empty hole.
Love will leave you faster than it came.
Fire will always blaze your soul.
Your only present will be of coal,
Because of your sick, heartless game.
You have yet to pay your toll.

The Dead Lake
I stand here alone,
Hovering over the edge.
My fear chatters my bones,
But I push on because of the pledge.
I see the dirty grime,
Hovering over the top.
I think of how it should be a crime.
I think of how I should stop.
I hear the water slowly slapping
In a rhythm on the dirty rocks.
It reminds me of the same water once trapping
Me, in what seemed like a large, wet box.
I feel the stale air greeting my bare face.
It slowly twirls my hair.
It seems to have much grace,
Even though it feels as though it could tear.

Humming zombies?
Why can't zombies approach
Into the humming stage?
Follow their past dreams
And become engaged?
Moaning isn't that pleasant
I'd rather it be a hum...
And have zombies stumbling around
Following a beat that isn't numb
Not that lonely beat
Inside your chest
But the beat of the drum
Where compassion is expressed
I wish the only part
Of a zombies brain
Was the memory of
Past songs they hadn't abstained
This is how my dreams are
Twisted reality at ease
And this is why my imagination is full
I come and...
Into the humming stage?
Follow their past dreams
And become engaged?
Moaning isn't that pleasant
I'd rather it be a hum...
And have zombies stumbling around
Following a beat that isn't numb
Not that lonely beat
Inside your chest
But the beat of the drum
Where compassion is expressed
I wish the only part
Of a zombies brain
Was the memory of
Past songs they hadn't abstained
This is how my dreams are
Twisted reality at ease
And this is why my imagination is full

After today?
Small and delicate
Like a flower in the spring
Never causing a single threat
Never showing your beautiful wings
Quiet and trusted
Like a friend should be
Never going to feel rusted
Because of the love everyone sends to thee
I just hope someday
That you will suprise us all
With more talent than what you say
Leaving our jaws to drop and fall
Like a flower in the spring
Never causing a single threat
Never showing your beautiful wings
Quiet and trusted
Like a friend should be
Never going to feel rusted
Because of the love everyone sends to thee
I just hope someday
That you will suprise us all
With more talent than what you say
Leaving our jaws to drop and fall

Today On the Eighth
Awaiting for death's return
In the cold, hasty night
Your skin will start to burn
Because of the battle you tried to fight
You lie there still
Thinking thoughts of the past
You flinch because the chill
Seems to come all too fast
Your brain begins to fuzz
Causing your thoughts to break
You were thinking of what was
But now death starts to take
You knew if you tried to fight
You would unsuprisingly lose
Even if you were the good knight
Your winning chance always reduced
This is because you had no...

I can't help you
I learn to give
All that I show
And then some more
Because that's all I know
I lose everyone I love
Accidental or not
They get tired of me
And all that I've fought
So I'm left alone
Hearing whispers or sad calls
Some need my help
But I'm lost in the walls
Little do they know
My so called "friends"
That when they upset me
No one wins
All that I show
And then some more
Because that's all I know
I lose everyone I love
Accidental or not
They get tired of me
And all that I've fought
So I'm left alone
Hearing whispers or sad calls
Some need my help
But I'm lost in the walls
Little do they know
My so called "friends"
That when they upset me
No one wins

Dream Face
While I'm drawing this picture of you
My secret kept by hands
I shove all thoughts away
Keeping slow pace with my plan
Drawing is like a release
Mentally shutting down my brain
And of course you ending on that page
Makes it an even more powerful gain
But then when I'm finised
A completed picture of you looking at me
It saddens me to say
Your smile, I'm never able to see
I always mean for you to
Because I love it when you grin
But my hands never go along
Making both of us never win
It's enough to say
If we...
My secret kept by hands
I shove all thoughts away
Keeping slow pace with my plan
Drawing is like a release
Mentally shutting down my brain
And of course you ending on that page
Makes it an even more powerful gain
But then when I'm finised
A completed picture of you looking at me
It saddens me to say
Your smile, I'm never able to see

Hugs.
Always is forever
Forever is meant for love
That's why you and me together
Is like a million tiny little hugs
Sadly, hugs are all that I have
They are the only thing I can give
But at least they will be there
Until I can no longer live
Sometimes I convince myself
That this will be okay
That I can live through my life
Knowing that day by day
But other times of course
I push those thoughts from my head
That is until I realize
That I am already dead
Forever is meant for love
That's why you and me together
Is like a million tiny little hugs
Sadly, hugs are all that I have
They are the only thing I can give
But at least they will be there
Until I can no longer live
Sometimes I convince myself
That this will be okay
That I can live through my life
Knowing that day by day
But other times of course
I push those thoughts from my head
That is until I realize
That I am already dead
