Holocaust
Do you see me standing?
Do you see me standing here?
The sand pouring from my eyes and being swallowed by my tongue!
And now I'm choking and flies are swarming.
After the Holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
I am covered. Now.
They were born here, made from my mind.
Where will these flies go when I have nothing left to give?
When I have thought, these flies have been made.
So when my mind dies like my body; Where will they go?
After the holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
After my life...
Will I still be...
Do you see me standing here?
The sand pouring from my eyes and being swallowed by my tongue!
And now I'm choking and flies are swarming.
After the Holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
I am covered. Now.
They were born here, made from my mind.
Where will these flies go when I have nothing left to give?
When I have thought, these flies have been made.
So when my mind dies like my body; Where will they go?
After the holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
After my life...
Will I still be...

When I Was Young
When I was young I had a plan
That could let my baby live
When I was young my baby died
And It killed me within
When I was young I fell in love
with a man too old for me
When I was young I let him take me
To a Place I didn't want to be
When I was young we had a plan
To let my baby live
When I was young my baby died
And the man I could never forgive
I'm no longer young
But I haven't aged
I'm without both of them now
And I'm no longer caged
That could let my baby live
When I was young my baby died
And It killed me within
When I was young I fell in love
with a man too old for me
When I was young I let him take me
To a Place I didn't want to be
When I was young we had a plan
To let my baby live
When I was young my baby died
And the man I could never forgive
I'm no longer young
But I haven't aged
I'm without both of them now
And I'm no longer caged

Name.
It's tugging at my chest
Pulling the strands of my heart
It makes me feel at rest
When the night hits and my tears start
I don't know what it is about it
that makes my mouth freeze
and I don't know what it is about that
that makes my life seize
My whole heart skips a beat
And the hole in my body makes itself known
The Earth crumbles at my feet
And I feel fear in every bone
I've reached for something forbidden
And held it in my grasp
Now I keep it hidden
But when it happens I can't choke down my gasp
It's...
Pulling the strands of my heart
It makes me feel at rest
When the night hits and my tears start
I don't know what it is about it
that makes my mouth freeze

My whole heart skips a beat
And the hole in my body makes itself known
The Earth crumbles at my feet
And I feel fear in every bone
I've reached for something forbidden
And held it in my grasp
Now I keep it hidden
But when it happens I can't choke down my gasp

Smoke Filled Tears
Our eyes meet
You're begging me to rescue you
And If you look in my eyes you'll see I'm begging you too
As I'm on the roof
I contemplate
Combining my height and my weight
Thinking I could loose a pound or two
That way when I hit the cloud like ground
Maybe I'll float away pound upon pound
As I whisper to your ear
A tear drops from your eye
And your words fill with fear
I'm so sorry I never meant to make you cry
And If I told you I was really just desperate for attention
Would you dismiss my whispers as a lie
And I wish someone...

Strest.
Deep in those blue-green eyes
It's a swamp full of muck
I'm the girl your parents warned you about when they said
,"The bad will get you stuck."
All my eyes have seen is horror
Without my razor there is no relief
And that's the only fact that can double as a belief
My smoke is the only thing that keeps me calm
It's the only reason I smile during the day and
,"Play along."
Starving and puking is the only thing that can bring me to any form of beauty
And that brings shame to my family
They say...

Burnt
Bathing in the ashes
Of What the past has left behind
From a destructive blaze
That started as a flicker in my mind
The burnt up memories hold my gaze
I've been crying to these ashes for days upon days
Asking them to take me back
"TAKE ME BACK!" to when life was good
An idiot child
Who never understood
Take me back to my old ways
The past memories will agree, Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
My heart seems metallic
So my crying will surely make it rust
So easy to break, Not easy to find
And these ashes...
Of What the past has left behind
From a destructive blaze
That started as a flicker in my mind
The burnt up memories hold my gaze
I've been crying to these ashes for days upon days
Asking them to take me back
"TAKE ME BACK!" to when life was good
An idiot child
Who never understood
Take me back to my old ways
The past memories will agree, Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
My heart seems metallic
So my crying will surely make it rust
So easy to break, Not easy to find

So Little
How can a butterfly fly
If Its wings are clipped and it's left to die
And how can you ask a whale to sing to the moon
If you've aimed at its throat and shot a harpoon
And how can you expect
The boy to cry wolf and save you all
If you've called him a liar and told him to stop his crying call
If you constantly make me feel in the wrong
How can you expect me to willingly play along
And why do you ask the mocking bird to sing his song
And the diamond ring to sparkle bright
And put those stars to shame at night
You expect so much from so little...
If Its wings are clipped and it's left to die
And how can you ask a whale to sing to the moon
If you've aimed at its throat and shot a harpoon
And how can you expect
The boy to cry wolf and save you all
If you've called him a liar and told him to stop his crying call
If you constantly make me feel in the wrong
How can you expect me to willingly play along
And why do you ask the mocking bird to sing his song
And the diamond ring to sparkle bright
And put those stars to shame at night

Seductive Music
I hear my favorite song
Playing in the background
So I Pause for the moment
To embrace the sweet sound
It tickles my ear
And reaches for my body
I let it take me along with my fear
And hold it close
As It pushes further in
Music is my only release
So I'm waiting for it to be dubbed a sin
The tune will not pause
For any moment in life
But I'll pause for the moment if the tune is right
I don't struggle or put up a fight
I let this song love me all through the night
When It slows down and begins to leave
I let it take a part of...

Six Feet Under.
You know Enough is enough
When You've tried your best
And Enough's enough
When You can't fit in with the rest
So silently crying
Reminiscing on All my lying
I contemplate ways to end things
Shall I slit my wrists
So Many scars no one will miss
Shall I drink some bleach
Or hang myself and record my last speech
I could drown
I just want to be six feet underground
I could overdose
And Lay to rest In that coffin pose
It seems so harsh to take a bullet in-between the eyes
Maybe one to the heart could be my...

Mint
As the mint hits your breath
I wonder
Does your tongue know that is all it will ever taste
It sends a cold shiver down your boney spine
And then I wonder Does your tongue agree with this decision
Gum, Mints, Smoke, Coffee. Repeat
Gum, Mints, Smoke, Coffee. Repeat
Gum, Mints, Smoke, Coffee. Repeat
Why
Why must your life consists of trying to reach death
Gum, Mints, Smoke, Coffee. Repeat
Maybe those bones pushing through the skin gasping to breathe, are death
Maybe it's death trying to escape your body
Gum, Mints, Smoke, Coffee. Repeat
How...
