When Youthful Dreams Become Nightmares
What if I could learn to live between these lines?
To paint my soul with the colors of a sunset horizon?
I amble between heavy sighs
I've grown tired of this soulless abomination living in my bathroom mirror—
My new hole to hide from the world outside.
Begging everyone to let me lie in peace.
There's safety in retreating to the grey areas.
A perfect storm cloud to float into nothing.
What if I learn to live between these blurred lines?
But What if I drift away on the ticking hands of time?
What if!
What if! ...
To paint my soul with the colors of a sunset horizon?
I amble between heavy sighs
I've grown tired of this soulless abomination living in my bathroom mirror—
My new hole to hide from the world outside.
Begging everyone to let me lie in peace.
There's safety in retreating to the grey areas.
A perfect storm cloud to float into nothing.
What if I learn to live between these blurred lines?
But What if I drift away on the ticking hands of time?
What if!
What if! ...

Self made prison
I once roamed free
Without any cares
No limits restrained
A soul so fair
I saw beauty in all
That fancied my view
Was loved by everyone
Who crossed my path too
But as I grew older
My fun turned to habit
I burned myself out from
Chasing the rabbit
So now I lived bound
By chains in a cell
Anguished by guilt
In my own living Hell
But this prison you see
Was unlike any other
It fractured my mind
I retreated further and further
The road that I face
Is long but not...
Without any cares
No limits restrained
A soul so fair
I saw beauty in all
That fancied my view

Who crossed my path too
But as I grew older
My fun turned to habit
I burned myself out from
Chasing the rabbit
So now I lived bound
By chains in a cell
Anguished by guilt
In my own living Hell
But this prison you see
Was unlike any other
It fractured my mind
I retreated further and further
The road that I face
Is long but not...

Smoke
Beautiful smoke bleeds through my lungs,
Clouding up my mind making me feel numb
Blazing up before the sun,
Ignoring my problems helping me run
Smoke so much the high is gone,
The only solution to everything thats wrong
Thoughts once racing now stay in place,
Finally able to focus before they start to chase
Put to ease my troubled mind,
Put everything into focus on thing at a time
Beautiful smoke clouding up the air,
Fading away like it was never even there
Clouding up my mind making me feel numb
Blazing up before the sun,
Ignoring my problems helping me run
Smoke so much the high is gone,
The only solution to everything thats wrong
Thoughts once racing now stay in place,
Finally able to focus before they start to chase
Put to ease my troubled mind,
Put everything into focus on thing at a time
Beautiful smoke clouding up the air,
Fading away like it was never even there

Sobriety
Day 1, I can't do this, do I want to do this?
Day 2, Yesterday is done, can i do this, do i really want to do this?
Why am i so fearful of my of my own reality?
Why don't i just change what's mine and remove what isn't mine?
I can do this.
I will do this.
I am doing this
I am sober...

In the drugs shadow
It's sad,
Im sad,
But this time I refuse to wave a flag,
I won't stand against you,
I won't stand with you,
But I will stand for myself from you.
Must be torture,
Must be built into your culture,
To take and take and never mature.
You live In the shadow of yourself,
I know the pain myself,
I know the love that was never felt.
what you did has a cost,
and that cost,
is you staying loss.
So I'm not mad at you,
I'm just over you,
A friendship which was never true.
...

heaven
The dope gave me peace
released the tension
so on a rocket ship I went to find heaven
My demons in the closet locked away
I forgive myself I forgive my pain
The dope gave me closure
and i felt closer to myself then I ever had before
Now that light was shed on my herione addiction
rehab was the next thing I got to explore
released the tension
so on a rocket ship I went to find heaven
My demons in the closet locked away
I forgive myself I forgive my pain
The dope gave me closure
and i felt closer to myself then I ever had before
Now that light was shed on my herione addiction
rehab was the next thing I got to explore

Using.
Using drugs,
To stop the fuss,
Of the brain,
An overwhelming pain,
Causing you to self-medicate in vain,
Slowly destroying your future with every line,
Hoping you reach 49,
Unable to stop using,
Unable to stop self-medicating.
Oh! What a wonderful feeling, isn't it?
The small time of relief,
The small time of being something worth living.
But now, enjoy yourself of course,
Your family will feel their remorse.
To stop the fuss,
Of the brain,
An overwhelming pain,
Causing you to self-medicate in vain,
Slowly destroying your future with every line,
Hoping you reach 49,
Unable to stop using,
Unable to stop self-medicating.
Oh! What a wonderful feeling, isn't it?
The small time of relief,
The small time of being something worth living.
But now, enjoy yourself of course,
Your family will feel their remorse.
