The Day
Topic: Poetry
Where did time go?
I'm standing here on the ocean shore
watching life passing me by

Where did mercy go?
There's children all over the world
suffering what they don't deserve

Where did happiness go?
Suddenly everyone is crying theirself to sleep
everynight fearing what their dreams will bring

Watching the sunrise in the morning
getting up out of bed, just like yesterday
holding on to that spark of hope that today will be the day
the day where everything will change

Where did trust go?
People accusing left and right
over things that don't even matter

Where did faith go?
People are walking out the doors
leaving all they had been brought up to believe

Where did humanity go?
Out of all the things that I have seen
that's the one that I miss the most

Watching the sunrise in the morning
getting up out of bed, just like yesterday
holding on to that spark of hope that today will be the day
the day where everything will change

The tears rolled down his cheeks
as he watched his father walk out the door
not knowing what had happened
or why his mother was lying bleeding on the floor

She held her child close
not knowing if this would be that awful night
asking God, "Why me?"
"Why does my child have to be the one to die?"

They burst into her room
not knowing what they will see inside of there
the mother fell onto her knees
and the father ran to his daughter, and pushed the gun aside

At one point, everyone in the world
will fall to their knees, crying out
"God, why me!? Tell me why! TELL ME WHY!
Why did this have to happen to me?"

Watching the sunrise in the morning
getting up out of bed, just like yesterday
holding on to that spark of hope that today will be the day
the day where everything will change

Watching the sunrise in the morning
getting up out of bed, just like yesterday
holding on to that spark of hope that today will be the day
the day where everything will change

Where did time go?
I'm standing here on the ocean shore
watching life passing me by

Childish Heart
Topic: Poetry
Hold me close, draw me near
take away all of my fears
Cause I'm just like a child
I'm scared of the dark
won't you hold my hand
so I don't give up

I am lost, scared and alone
and I don't know where I should go
Cause I'm just like a child
I don't want you to go away
won't you hold my hand
so I will never stray

And just like a child I run towards you
with my arms open wide
tears are falling down my face
I miss those days
When I had no cares in the world

To be a child again, inside and out
to be sure of things that right now, fill me with doubt
For now all it is is a dream, will it always be?
Just a dream?
Or will someone make it a reality?

And just like a child I run towards you
with my arms open wide
tears are falling down my face
I miss those days
When I had no cares in the world

Hold me close, draw me near
take away all of my fears
Cause I'm just like a child
I'm scared of the dark
won't you hold my hand
so I don't give up

I am lost, scared and alone
and I don't know where I should go
Cause I'm just like a child
I don't want you to go away
won't you hold my hand
so I will never stray

Oh my childish heart

This Is My Diary
Topic: Poetry
Tears falling down her face as she wakes up
fear gripping tight onto her heart
The nightmares are becoming so vividly clear
since that day

She can hear the laughter
she can hear the breathing
the laughter
the breathing
the touching
She's screaming

She's screaming for redemption
She's screaming for salvation from this pain
She's screaming to be heard
before she falls and slips away
She's screaming for redemption
She's screaming for salvation from this pain
Can no one hear her?
Can no one hear her?

Everyday for her is one filled with pain
never ceasing to bring sorrow
Everything doesn't seem like it will get better
since that day

She can hear the laughter
she can hear the breathing
the laughter
the breathing
the touching
She's screaming

She's screaming for redemption
She's screaming for salvation from this pain
She's screaming to be heard
before she falls and slips away
She's screaming for redemption
She's screaming for salvation from this pain
Can no one hear her?
Can no one hear her?

When darkness fall the nightmares come
She doesn't dare turn out the lights
Questions in her head, where are they from?
Where is fear from?
She asks herself why
Why did it happen to her?
Why did it happen to her?
Why did it happen to her?
Why did it happen to ME!?

Tears falling down my face as I wake up
fear gripping tight onto my heart
The nightmares are becoming so vividly clear
since that day

I can hear the laughter
I can hear the breathing
the laughter
the breathing
the touching
I'm screaming

I'm screaming for redemption
I'm screaming for salvation from this pain
I'm screaming to be heard
before I fall and slip away
I'm screaming for redemption
I'm screaming for salvation from this pain
Can no one hear me?
Can no one hear me?

I'm screaming for redemption
I'm screaming for salvation from this pain
I'm screaming to be heard
before I fall and slip away
I'm screaming for redemption
I'm screaming for salvation from this pain
Can no one hear me?
Can no one hear me?

This is my diary

Burning Candles and Voodoo Dolls
Topic: Poetry
Watching life from the other side
are you happy now?
With all of your choices you've made?

I remember when you told me you wished
everything would get better
The silence here is deafening

Before you disappear forever, please,
will you answer me?
Cause there's a peace of mind that
I need to get

Did you mean to go all the way?
or did you really want to stay?
Deep down inside?
Burning candles and voodoo dolls
I feel your presence in the walls
I can hear your cries

I can feel you next to me
I can hear you when you breathe
Unless you're here to tell me why
leave me alone so I can cry

Walking down an empty street
my heart is pounding
Questions are running through my head

Your gravestone is my reminder
of that road less traveled
that some people choose to take

Before you disappear forever, please,
will you answer me?
Cause there's a peace of mind that
I need to get

Did you mean to go all the way?
or did you really want to stay?
Deep down inside?
Burning candles and voodoo dolls
I feel your presence in the walls
I can hear your cries

I can feel you next to me
I can hear you when you breathe
Unless you're here to tell me why
leave me alone so I can cry

Chanting incantations
Writings on the walls
It's not imagination
I had to watch you fall
Chanting incantations
Watching your blood flow
It's not imagination
I had to watch you go

Chanting incantations
Writings on the walls
It's not imagination
I had to watch you fall
Chanting incantations
Watching your blood flow
It's not imagination
I had to watch you go

I had to watch you go (x3)

Before you disappear forever, please,
will you answer me?
Cause there's a peace of mind that
I need to get

Did you mean to go all the way?
or did you really want to stay?
Deep down inside?
Burning candles and voodoo dolls
I feel your presence in the walls
I can hear your cries

I can feel you next to me
I can hear you when you breathe
Unless you're here to tell me why
leave me alone so I can cry

Burning candles and voodoo dolls
I feel my tears as I watch you fall

How I Feel
Topic: Poetry
Tell me why
why do you continue this path of destruction?
All it does
is make you feel worse and worse everysingle day

I see your tears falling down your face
as you watch the blood stream down your wrist
Questions lie unanswered in your mind
and I just want to know why

Why do I ask these questions
I already know the answer to?
Maybe I'm just insecure and
unsure of what I should do
But I do know just one thing...
how I feel while watching you die inside

Tell me how
how did you end up back in this place?
I thought you
had given up on all of those ways

I see you as you start to fall down
and I can hear you as you're crying out
Tears are clouding up my eyes
won't someone answer me why

Why do I ask these questions
I already know the answer to?
Maybe I'm just insecure and
unsure of what I should do
But I do know just one thing...
how I feel while watching you die inside

I've seen you hurt
I've seen you cry
Please don't you let go
I don't want to see you die

I know at times there seems
to be nothing left for you
but everysingle dream you have,
no matter how small, it's something to hold on to

The skies might turn grey
and the world might grow cold
but there will always be a place for you
that you can call your home

So dry your tears
I'll always be here
and promise me that you'll try
to never let you die

Why do I ask these questions
I already know the answer to?
Maybe I'm just insecure and
unsure of what I should do
But I do know just one thing...
how I feel while watching you die inside

I've seen you hurt
I've seen you cry
Please don't you let go
I don't want to see you die

Nevermore
Topic: Poetry
v)open your eyes
let me see that smile one more time
dry your tears
let me take away all of your fears

c)don't be afraid of the future
and don't dwell on the past
cutting's just one suture
and it never really lasts

so follow the rainbow
to the end of the road
you'll find your pot of gold
this i do know

v)pick up your head
think of all the tales you've read
of all the heros
who came up from being zeros

c)don't be afraid of the future
and don't dwell on the past
cutting's just one suture
and it never really lasts

so follow the rainbow
to the end of the road
you'll find your pot of gold
this i do know

b)don't forget to follow your dreams
because they can become reality
if you keep on trying to touch the stars
one day you'll see you've come far

even when your clouds are grey
know that your dreams will never fade
as long as you stay strong in faith
your time will never go to waste

as the ocean's waves crash against the shore
may your hope fade nevermore
to repeat words that are very well known...
"Quoth the Raven, 'Nevermore'."

nevermore may your tears fall down
nevermore may you hit the ground
nevermore may you be in pain
nevermore may your life be this way

c)don't be afraid of the future
and don't dwell on the past
cutting's just one suture
and it never really lasts

so follow the rainbow
to the end of the road
you'll find your pot of gold
this i do know

c)don't be afraid of the future
and don't dwell on the past
cutting's just one suture
and it never really lasts

so follow the rainbow
to the end of the road
you'll find your pot of gold
this i do know

"Quoth the Raven, 'Nevermore'."

Poison
Mood:  caffeinated
Topic: Poetry
Kiss my lips
sweet sweet poison
I never want to part
let my lips moisten
upon the touch
onto my lips
so the bottle may fall
from my fingertips

Let my soul depart
and leave this place
and leave behind
not a trace
of my exsitence
in this life
naught but my pain,
misery, and strife

Pocketwatch
Mood:  caffeinated
Topic: Poetry
There's a pocketwatch lying on the desk
the second hand has long since stopped moving
Every speck of dust is in the same place as it was
the last time someone was in this place
The pictures on the wall of her smiling face
are the only evidence that she had once been here

And in the center of the room she lies there
frozen in space and time
Time has forever stopped for her
Can't you see the tears that are frozen on her face
as she had lied there, screaming and crying
"GOD WHY AREN'T YOU HERE!?
SOMEONE TAKE THIS PAIN AWAY!
someone take this pain away."

Outside of the room time still goes on
it seems like everyone has forgotten her
They just look at her gravestone and say, "It's so sad,
she was so young," but they don't think about the pain she felt
I don't think anyone but me noticed when she knelt
and cried out in her agony

And in the center of the room she lies there
frozen in space and time
Time has forever stopped for her
Can't you see the tears that are frozen on her face
as she had lied there, screaming and crying
"GOD WHY AREN'T YOU HERE!?
SOMEONE TAKE THIS PAIN AWAY!
someone take this pain away."

Sometimes I wonder if things would have been different
if she had only stayed
But I guess we will never know
if this world would have been changed
It's because of people who think they know
everything about everyone
but really they don't have a fucking clue about themselves
It's because of people like them
that I have lost my best friend
Oh god I remember that day
when my world fell apart
I remember it so clearly
it torments me everyday
I remember the pain...as I walked in

And in the center of the room she lies there
frozen in space and time
Time has forever stopped for her
Can't you see the tears that are frozen on her face
as she had lied there, screaming and crying
"GOD WHY AREN'T YOU HERE!?
SOMEONE TAKE THIS PAIN AWAY!
someone take this pain away."

And in the center of the room she lies there
frozen in space and time
Time has forever stopped for her
Can't you see the tears that are frozen on her face
as she had lied there, screaming and crying
"GOD WHY AREN'T YOU HERE!?
SOMEONE TAKE THIS PAIN AWAY!
someone take this pain away."

Take it away
I'm slipping away
Take it away
I'm slipping away
Take it away
I'm slipping away
Take it away
I'm slipping away
Take it away
I'm slipping away

There's a pocketwatch lying on the desk
the second hand has long since stopped moving
Every speck of dust is in the same place as it was
the last time someone was in this place
The pictures on the wall of her smiling face
are the only evidence that she had once been here

Though A Heart Can Break
Mood:  amorous
Topic: Poetry
Hey mom I just wanted you to know
that even though I can never find the words to say it
I love you and I appreciate all you've done for me
I just wanted to say thank you

Through all the tears and fights we've had
I hope through time it'll be alright again
maybe someday this trust that was broken between us
maybe it'll be made whole again

Though a heart can break
and tears can flood the world
that can never stop me from loving you
I know I've said things
that I wish I hadn't said
they can never be taken back again
and now I lie here
in the cold of the night
praying to the heavens
that everything will be alright

I'm sorry for all the times I've made you cry
but don't you know I've cried more than you?
I hate to cause you so much pain
but sometimes the words just don't come out right

And I wanted to tell you that there's a reason
that I listen to the songs you don't like me to
It's not that I'm depressed or anything like that
it helps me to know that I'm not alone

Though a heart can break
and tears can flood the world
that can never stop me from loving you
I know I've said things
that I wish I hadn't said
they can never be taken back again
and now I lie here
in the cold of the night
praying to the heavens
that everything will be alright

Though a heart can break
and tears can flood the world
that can never stop me from loving you
I know I've said things
that I wish I hadn't said
they can never be taken back again
and now I lie here
in the cold of the night
praying to the heavens
that everything will be alright

And every night I stare up at the sky
looking at the stars
I made a wish a while ago on the brightest
and I hope it will come true
I hope for freedom
I hope for happiness
I hope for peace of mind
I hope for someday to be ok
I hope to be ok with you

She Didn't Know
Mood:  d'oh
Topic: Poetry
She had the perfect life
but every night she cried herself to sleep
now tell me where this isn't wrong

She had lots of friends
and then and her family loved her so much
but she felt so empty inside

They didn't know what was wrong with her
and they asked her but she said she didn't know
and she didn't

She didn't know why she felt empty inside
or why she felt alone as if no one cared at all
She often asked herself what could be wrong with her
and every night that led to the tears that she cried

They took her to the doctor
who said they should go to a psychiatrist
she hated them oh so much

He put her on some pills
and said to come back to him in a week or two
so they left to go home

They didn't know what was wrong with her
and they asked her but she said she didn't know
and she didn't

She didn't know why she felt empty inside
or why she felt alone as if no one cared at all
She often asked herself what could be wrong with her
and every night that led to the tears that she cried

[instrumental break]

They didn't know what was wrong with her
and they asked her but she said she didn't know
and she didn't

She didn't know why she felt empty inside
or why she felt alone as if no one cared at all
She often asked herself what could be wrong with her
and every night that led to the tears that she cried

Two weeks passed real quick
and they drove back to the psychiatrist
but she was not with them

He asked them where she was
and they told him that because of those stupid pills
she had gone and jumped off a bridge

They didn't know what was wrong with her
and they asked her but she said she didn't know
and she didn't

She didn't know why she felt empty inside
or why she felt alone as if no one cared at all
She often asked herself what could be wrong with her
and every night that led to the tears that she cried

Well now she won't cry anymore because she died
