Still I Breathe
Why,
I'm alive,
  and still I breathe
in the midnight hour.
I want to touch you,
tear into your skin,
don't stop until I get enough,
I was born from original sin.
Don't be cruel
  to a heart that's true,
shock...

Get Off My Back
Washing and drying
Folding and clothing
Scooping and dumping
Hustling and bustling.

I follow my routine
Each tuesday, thursday and friday
Getting all the chores done
On rare occassion one is saved for tomorrow.

Yet, your never satisfied
You try to throw off my...

The Supernova of Emptiness
Pathetic, the word I just can't seem to outrun
it beats me to alley-way exits, creating dead to ends, enclosed places
Defeated, it might as well be the twin
The effects, they refuse to cease yet love to...

Still I Breathe (Part 2)
Take a look to the sky
    before you die
it's the last time you will.
I'm your source of self destruction,
dedicated to how I'm killing you,
Hell is worth all that,
natural habitat.
She wanted the world

Tell the Devil
I Feel I've gone from red to black
Tell the devil 
Tell the devil 
Get off my back

I Tripped and fell and acted foolish
I think I'm done 
But I'm still going through it 

I think I'm...

Premium Member Stop It! - Just- Stop!
I’m tired,
tired of all the drama,
tired of relationships 
not working.
Tired of carrying other 
people’s qualms on my shoulders
Can’t they see?

Don’t they realize? 
They are draining my energy?
Can’t they see I’ve shut down?
My body might, 
be...

Everything
If you knew
What you do 
What you
Put me through
Then why’d you do it?

But I tried
Why’d you lie
This is my
Time to shine
So get off my back

Everything’s wrong
And everything’s gone
So please don’t torture me

Everything’s passed
But all too...

Lyric Poem I Reminisce
I reminisce by this railway siding pond,
Musing on rail relics rattling on,
Recalling lives and times bygone,
But memories of their shades linger on,
The lonesome call of distant steam trains,
Eras that may never come our way again,
I...

Chains, Locks and Guilt Trips
Wish you'd get off my back
wish you'd cut the reins.
You think you're showing love
but I'm being pulled in every direction
and I'm tired. So tired...

Love isn't enough for you.
You want a souvenir to take home when...

Back Against the Wall
I hide behind the walls that I built 
Made from failure and pride 
And sorrow 
And guilt 

Just leave your name and number 
On the back of my wall
And when I climb over
I’ll give ‘ya...

Rap Away Hatred
I must let go of
the hatred you show
Because you want
nothing but
destruction
Wanting me to
feel like nothing
Who are you to
define who I am
I'm no punching bag
this feels so sad
Get a good grip
show love instead
Be worth something
no losing...

A False Face
You don't ~Know~ me

So you need to ~Disappear~

You can't ~Control~ me

With your hate or your ~Fear~

You did a good ~Deed~

I'm ~Thankful~ for that

But you're so full of ~Spite~

And I'm ~Sick~ of your crap

You're so very...

The scene is the breakfast table
Mom and Dad rushing
To get the day underway
There’s a bit of tension in the air
Not everyone’s on page
With the early morning pace
Of the weekday rat race
When out from left field
Is...
