A Place for You and I

Come with me my friend
And we will leave this place
This place of sorrow and pain

As sands of time slip through our hands
Again we face a new day
Battle on we will
Fighting their laughter and dodging their words

We'll go someplace new
Together, you and I
We'll support each other
It's time we confront the lies

There is nothing more for us here
Confrontation has been made
They dropped us so now we leave
Shall we say good bye?

Come with me my friend
And we will find a better place
A place for you and I
Beating, Bleeding

For a brief moment I was happy
but then you tore my heart out
and left it beating and bleeding

I never did anything to you
but maybe you feared me when I asked

Still you had no right to tear my heart out
and leave it beating and bleeding

So now I gather my life back together
and silently hope for someone new

I am not sure if I could face them
and hand them the love I tried to give you

Clock Ticks
Another second lost
Time spent wallowing
In one's own sadness
Clock ticks
Another second lost
Time spent crying
Over what one hasn't
Clock ticks
Another second lost
Time spent laughing
At the good times
Clock ticks
Another second lost
To be held

I want to be held
till the bleeding stops
I want to be held
till the pain goes away
I want to be held
till the tears stop flowing
Till they are only a breif memory
I Remember You

You are not here
But I remember you
Your cold touch
Sharp, painful
The feeling after we were done
High of relief
You are not here
But I remember you well
I can taste you
I can see you
My skin crawels in anticipation
I can't wait to find you
To use you again
I want to say...

I want to say...
I want to say I hate you
I want to say you hurt me
I want to say you made me bleed
I want to say I would have liked to known you
I want to say I love you
I want to say...
Sitting here

What's the point of sitting here
Letting my life waste
What's the point of sitting here
Forgetting all I believe
I'm told I've made progress
By not picking up a blade
And now all I do is sit here
Longing to bleed
Searching

Nothingness is all I see
No life no love
Nothing
Waves of nothing keep battering me
No life no love
Nothing
Swimming though this sea of nothingness
Searching searching
Searching for life searching for love
Searching in this sea
Shackles

Shackles weigh down heavy
They sit and batter skin
Tugging on chain links that break
Freedom rushes in
Door open rushes Darkness thru
Standing before being broken
Sadness fills the room
Darkness kneels and caresses skin
Wraps round the body tight
Weaving past then thru the chains
Mending, hindering plight
Thank you

Thank you
This is all I can say
The impact you've made is something great
Thank you
This is all I can say
I don't have money to pay you back nor gold to hand to you
All I have is the memories I cherish and more time to spend with you
In times of slience and bitter tears
In times of laughter and fun memories
You were always there
Thank you
Untitled

Flashes of light
Breif memories of happiness it's all that's left
Waves of darkness
Thoughts of living
Behavior not my own
Looking to run away
Looking to escape
Want to run
Full speed
and jump
Land someplace far from here
Untitled

Huddled in the corner
Shivering, cold, and scared
Nothing more to feel
Warmth found no where

Focus through the glass
See that memories of my past
Have stolen my life's time
And keep me wake this night

Broken eyes glance up
Sands of time fall down
Beaten to my knees again
Fear has won this round
Whisper

This pain is too much
I hear your voice
Always echoing in my ear
Soft whisper
Deep breath
Eyes open
Body tense
You are know where near
Will you still stay?

After the pointers stop pointing
After the jokers stop joking
After the laughers stop laughing
After the tears start falling
After the hate starts boiling
After the rage starts showing
After the fear starts to take control
Will you still stay?
