Juliet's Call
I was lost in my darkest dreams.
They came to life,
and took me away.
I fought to get out.
It was a battle of life and death.
I am here now.
Here waiting,
for my Juliet
to call upon me.
They came to life,
and took me away.
I fought to get out.
It was a battle of life and death.
I am here now.
Here waiting,
for my Juliet
to call upon me.

Done For You
I grew up
hearing the same phrase
over and over:
"Pick your friends wisely."
"You are what your friends are."
I always tried my best
to pick good friends.
The friends I'd make though
were never good enough.
They couldn't help me.
They'd never understand.
My sickness consumed me,
It controlled me in a way.
It helped me
more than "real friends" ever could.
I had the smallest friend in the world.
I took take him everywhere I went.
I could hide him,
and no one would ever know...

Why I am Still Alive
In my darkest moments,
In my darkest hours,
In my darkest days,
And in my darkest nights
I felt all alone like nobody cared.
The monsters I feared
that were in my closet,
the dark hallways,
and down the dark stairs
disappeared from the dark.
They moved themselves,
Transformed themselves,
And settled somewhere much deeper.
I still feared them.
Still thought they were there.
It's too good to be true
for them to be gone.
I was right.
The monsters now lived inside me.
I was in pain.
I was in...
In my darkest hours,

You Are
If there is one person in the world
who is what I use to be
it would be you.
From the first time we talked
I knew I was talking to myself.
It's weird cause I was your age
when darkness started to consume me.
I thought I could save you like the rest,
but I was wrong.
Even though I could not see your eyes,
I saw right through your words on the screen.
It's scary to know you are the black rose I was.
You are the shattered girl I was.
You are my reflection.
You are the one people said couldn't be saved.
How could this...

My Mistakes
Mistakes,
Mistakes,
Mistakes.
We are only human after all.
I've made lots of mistakes in my life,
but this one I have a hard time coming to grips with.
I want to get out of it,
but I don't want to hurt you.
Mistakes.
How can you not make them?
But how do you not let it eat you up from the inside out?
I don't know why I do this,
but I seem to make the same mistake over and over again.
I get into relationships.
One's I can't finish.
One's where it'll always be unfair.
My mistake was letting the boundary be...

I don't belong
Forward or backward
I'm not sure which way I'm going.
I'm a hero now,
but all I feel like is a loner.
I don't belong here.
This place use to be my home,
but now it's just a dead building.
I walk through hallways
that use to scream my name,
but they're silent.
I walk through classrooms
where I had pulled myself to the top,
but it was obvious I no longer reigned.
I didn't want to know,
but too late I already knew.
The message was loud and clear.
I don't belong here.
My friends and I use to be so close.
Now it's...
I'm not sure which way I'm going.
I'm a hero now,
but all I feel like is a loner.

Insomnia
Another day
Another night
I can't sleep.
I lay in bed
look up at the ceiling.
Thoughts running through my mind.
What do you do till the comes up?
Watch a movie,
Go on you tube,
Surf the internet,
listen to music.
Sleepless nights hurt my eyes,
The only one that talks to me is my stomach.
Watching the sunrise is beautiful
I rather get some shut eye though.
It's been two weeks,
and I can't sleep.
I have so much on my mind.
I want to write it all down,
but I can't.
My body
my body
my body's...

Nobody's Hero
Some of you have told me I'm your hero,
but honestly I'm nobody's hero.
I've lost a soul.
I just couldn't save her.
I feel responsible in some way and a failure.
If I told you the truth
I know You won't believe me.
I guess I'll tell you anyway.
I am nobody's hero.
I was in darkness too.
The exact same spot as you all.
I could barely get out on my own.
Doesn't this show
I am nobody's hero.
No matter how many times I say it,
you all go against me.
You tell me I'm your hero.
You tell me I'm your savior.
You...
but honestly I'm nobody's hero.
I've lost a soul.
I just couldn't save her.
I feel responsible in some way and a failure.

If I never wake again
If I never wake again
just know it's not your fault,
and that I love you.
The demons inside me took me away.
I gave into them.
I just couldn't control them any longer.
If I never wake again
I don't want you to mourn.
I want you to rejoice,
and know that only my body is dead.
My soul lives on within your happiness.
If I never wake again
I want my funeral to be a huge party.
I don't want flowers.
I want balloons.
My friends should sing songs.
My family should play my favorite music.
I want a white casket,
and...
just know it's not your fault,
and that I love you.
The demons inside me took me away.
I gave into them.
I just couldn't control them any longer.
If I never wake again
I don't want you to mourn.

Secrets
I have all these secretes inside me.
They weigh me down like heavy chains.
I have all these secretes inside me.
They give me a guilty conscience
I have all these secrets inside me.
Half of them aren't even mine.
I have all these secrets inside me.
I want to let them go.
I want the rain to wash them away.
I want them to flow out of me
like a river flows along a bank.
I have all these secrets inside me.
I've finally told somebody,
and now I'm free.
They weigh me down like heavy chains.
I have all these secretes inside me.
They give me a guilty conscience
I have all these secrets inside me.
Half of them aren't even mine.
I have all these secrets inside me.
I want to let them go.
I want the rain to wash them away.
I want them to flow out of me
like a river flows along a bank.
I have all these secrets inside me.

Apologize
You're a manipulator.
You're a liar.
You're seriously sick.
You're a manipulator.
You manipulated me to believe you.
Believe that through our sickness we had a bond.
We lived in two different worlds,
but you thought to combine them would be genius.
You must be seriously sick.
You're a lair.
You lied to me about EVERYTHING!
You were born with a monster inside you.
Your house is so high tech no one can break in,
but you live in the projects.
The war in Australia never happened!
You "friends" are FAKE!

Already Dead
Reality.
That's where my body lives on.
It's not safe there though.
Darkness is stealing my light.
pain and misery are slipping through my cracks.
Light and darkness will always battle over me.
There is no escaping the war inside me.
The scars on my body each tell a story:
A story of my struggle,
A story of my survival,
A story of my life,
A story of my death.
"If the war never ends why don't you just kill yourself?"
she asked me quietly.
"I have no no to kill myself
when inside I'm already dead."
That's where my body lives on.
