Poet Introduction
Without self expression there is no reason to be here.
Being Alien
Turning off her bedroom light
She sits, she crys
Like every night
She's an alien
He walks down an empty street
he looks, around
No one to meet
he's an alien
they're an alien
she looks out the window pane
a slight reflection half insane
he walks within the freezing rain
the fridgid air, it numbs the pain
of being alien
the rain pours down like her teary eyes
he sings his heart out to the night
heraing his soul's heart outside
she looks, and sees to her suprise
it's an alien
well she...
She sits, she crys
Like every night
She's an alien
He walks down an empty street
he looks, around
No one to meet
he's an alien
they're an alien
she looks out the window pane
a slight reflection half insane
he walks within the freezing rain
the fridgid air, it numbs the pain
of being alien
the rain pours down like her teary eyes
he sings his heart out to the night
heraing his soul's heart outside
she looks, and sees to her suprise
it's an alien
well she...

What looks back
I look inside a mirror and a ghost is staring back at me
Its hard to see but if I try will the world just throw it back at me
I'm actually
Just another one at the academy
You're mad at me
This life is tearing at my hearts anatomy
Actually
I don't want an apology
It's too far gone for me
To see the way our lives we live in harmony
This world is harming me
Reality
Nearing over capacity
The center of our gravity
The calling of our tragedy
I'm losing my morality
Casually
This pain escapes gradually
With this...

Doubt
The world...
Shaking to the core
The sea...
Pounding at the shore
The ground...
Shaking at my feet
The sky...
where troubled angels meet
The stars...
Falling down to earth
Tell me brother...
What is it all worth.

Under the Avalanche
Never dreaming
Sleepless Nights
The world swallows me
I've strayed from all the lights
Where does the black road end
This thing I'll never know
I fight the bitter cold
But buried in an avalanche of snow
I never seen a shooting star
So I just used the sun instead
I can't believe my only friends
Are the ones inside my head
Sleepless Nights
The world swallows me
I've strayed from all the lights
Where does the black road end
This thing I'll never know
I fight the bitter cold
But buried in an avalanche of snow

So I just used the sun instead
I can't believe my only friends
Are the ones inside my head

The Broken Bard
Help me send away the demons
Tell me it's alright
It's been so long since the moon has come
Sick of this everlasting night
I can't see the edge of reality
Nothing is what it seems
I can't trust my own advice
I can't even trust my dreams
To know that I'm alone in time
Maybe for a second I can escape
I don't want to be a product of a broken world
That molds my every shape
I just wish for an ounce of happiness
To know my demons are gone
I'm just a broken bard singing to stars
With the tune of a broken song
Tell me it's alright
It's been so long since the moon has come
Sick of this everlasting night
I can't see the edge of reality
Nothing is what it seems
I can't trust my own advice
I can't even trust my dreams
To know that I'm alone in time
Maybe for a second I can escape
I don't want to be a product of a broken world
That molds my every shape
I just wish for an ounce of happiness
To know my demons are gone
I'm just a broken bard singing to stars
With the tune of a broken song

Anna Lee pt.1 American Tragedy
Daddy,
I just wanted to write and say
that I am doing good
they are trying to say that mom is crazy
but she's just misunderstood
I found a nice new trick for blankets
I just use my dirty clothes
I can no longer wear the shoes you gave me
They started bending back my toes
But you don't have to worry
I found some others in the alley
right where mama gets her medicine
but the shoes are marked with the name Gabby
I have to go soon, Daddy
Uncle Ted wants me to shower
I don't like it when he watches though ...

Far from Eden pt. 1
The Breath of Eden
The Grasp of Temptation
I can not escape
Serpents tongue
Knowledge won
The rest we lend to fate

America
My breath is blackened smoke
My hands are made of steel
My tears comprised of oil
Pumping poverty through my veins
I am America
My hands are made of steel
My tears comprised of oil
Pumping poverty through my veins
I am America

That fateful night
The prickle of the neck
The sweating of the skin
The mind was not in check
The gun was heavy in my hand
She had not a defender
She had a broken soul
She had never chose this moment
This was not her goal
The intruder grabbed her wrist
Told her shut her fucking mouth
Held her against the wall
His putrid hands were going south
The clock was ticking loudly
I was still unseen
Darkness heavy in the room
His eyes were empty green
I closed my troubled eyes
Locked up my broken soul
I Pulled...

Lonesome Turtle Dove
I sold my soul tonight
Just to never see you cry
Over the last time
I never said goodbye
I'm so sick of sleeping
I can't even show my love
I watch your eye's weeping
Like a lonesome turtle dove
Don't you dare go to sleep
Don't you rest your head like me
In my mind it seemed like heaven
But now it's Hell eternity
Maybe now, you will be happy
Maybe now you will find true love
Maybe one day you will find someone
Maybe you will find you[/font]r missing turtle dove
