It still hurts
I really loved you
but you were never true
You deserved me
But I didnt deserve you.
You took me for granted
I gave you my soul
Trusted you with my heart
and you shattered it.
You lead me on
thinking everything was ok
until i got that note
that one miserable day.
You misunderstood your feelings
and like someone else
I felt betrayed
and lonely...
but i didnt expect you
to trade me for a whore
I understand someone new
but how about something more?
I cant conrtol you now
and every once in a while
i get jealous
but then i remember how you treated me
and glad that now i can see
who you really are
but you were never true
You deserved me
But I didnt deserve you.

When you're in sight
Revolving around the pages, dancing on
Not saying a word
Don't let the music get the best of you
Cos' he's dancing with her this time around
Twirling in circles alone getting stern looks
From men who have no pride
Don't let the spotlight get to your spot
It's encouraging you to hide
You can scream and you can claw
You can be the mighty Thor but
They won't hear you over the dulled down silence
Thats creeping its way inside
As the band keeps on pretending, that it's helping
The world to mend things
What fools oh what foes?
I guess anything goes when you are in sight
Revolving around the pages, dancing on
Not saying a word
Don't let the music get the best of you
Cos' he's dancing with her this time around
Twirling in circles alone getting stern looks
From men who have no pride
Don't let the spotlight get to your spot
It's encouraging you to hide
You can scream and you can claw
You can be the mighty Thor but
They won't hear you over the dulled down silence
Thats creeping its way inside
As the band keeps on pretending, that it's helping
The world to mend things
What fools oh what foes?
I guess anything goes when you are in sight
his brown eyes kept my heart beatingi feel his lips so sweet against mine i wish you were still here im not afraid anymore please forgive me i never felt so numb i kept your secrets i held your hand i know i wasnt the best but please forgive me i understood you and you understood me you went with her and now theres a knife in my hand.....[left][/left]

YOU HURT ME SO BAD
When you declared our marriage was dead
You hurt me so much, I wanted to die
I cried all the time; took so many pills
Thought one day the pills would take me away
The pills did not work; I looked for love
In places below me; and it was sex that I found
Sex is pleasant, but it does not mean love
Many lonely people get the two confused
A year passed and I found a nice man
Who I thought would be perfect
However he had an ex-wife and two children
Marrying me was not in his plans
I have to confess; it took me long
To get over having been wronged
But GOD must have been looking out for my good
For eight years later he brought you to me
It took me ten years to trust you
I never thought I would trust a man once more
Finally I got to the point
Where I could make vows again
Now we are married and I have to say
The first years were tricky
Because i could not trust
In anything but lust
I have all but forgot..
I didn't count the days
I havent watched the clock.
Unfortunatley though
I have all but forgot.
As I look out my window
and watch the passing cars.
I feel at my wrists
and trace those scars.
I doubt you'd remember
the time on your bed.
Where you moved the pillow
and stroked my head.
You whispered to me,
"I'll never let you go."
and I believed every word,
but now I know.
I've cut, I've burned
til' my skin was too hot.
And still, I have
all but forgot...
I didn't count the days
I havent watched the clock.

Untitled.
You are my first,
I swear my love to be true.
In less than 24 hours,
she really deserves you?
You're under my skin,
quite literally.
I can't help but ache,
from all that I see.
Every kiss that I witnessed,
all the promises broken.
My heart stops everytime,
from words left unspoken.
Our eyes never meet,
like my skin and the blade.
I'd love to call you,
but you said I'm forbade.
I can't help but look back,
at the gift I remember
you placed on my neck...
the 24th of December.
Now she's holding you close,
and she's kissing you goodnight.
I'll keep my fists down,
wishing I could fight.
My lip is bleeding,
and my mascara smears....
You've been gone just one day,
but I can't see for tears.

(he's not my ex per say, but a close friend with...hmm, promises i guess. just..playboy more like.)
Watching watching, you talk to them.
Little flirt- it's you're charm.
What can I say?
That why I like you-
Oh, like so much.
Why you promised-
In sweet words, little touches,
And many many days, spent with you.
Talking again, there you go-
Stupid little flirt. It's your charm,
Why I like you so-
Oh, so much.
Just tired to see, all these girls,
Clinging to you're arm.
Little Play Boy.
Future heart breaker-
A new girl each month.
I'm your constant, you're pal and friend,
Little word charmer, stop breaking my heart.
Because I'm the fool, who stood to long-
Way to long, by you.

Way to long, by you.
Deep in my heart I know it isn't over
So why do you continue to give the cold shoulder?
A sharp tongue venomous like that of a cobra
But still you made me fall like the month of October
As I recap the memories of such clear imagery
The image of us as lovers instead of us as enemies
I've tried to forget you and refocus my energy
On blind dates and one night stands still no found remedy
I know if we try again that this time it'll work
But you found someone new and you're acting like a jerk
So I'll let you breathe and I'll give you your space
But you'll be back baby that's always the case
So enjoy your rebound, your shorty, your bust down
It's not like you're the only dude in town
It won't be long before you come back around
But this time around I'll be nowhere to be found
Don't knock on my door or be calling my phone
Need someone to talk to? You better call Tyrone
Oops my fault is that your boyfriend's name
Maybe I should put him on to our secret games
And watch that nigga go up in flames
But I'm not looking for that type of fame
I'm just so mad at how obssessed I've became
The way I still feel for you is a goddamn shame

Fare Lady
my fare lady that you loved..
why must those who shout brake you down?
sometimes sleeping helps forget...forget the
pain indeed inside her.
to have empty days and bullshit nights.
sleeping to forget that she has no reason to smile.
vines sprouted flowers around her ribcage.
slowly keeping it all to herself.
Closing her eyes to drift from herself
to bring forth emptiness
blackening every light that surrounds she
so no more eyes will she see
scratching her brain like metallic hand
leaving her body apone this land
letting her sleepless nights shut down her thoughts
dividing herself and the world apart
nothing can save her from her linley dark road
to carry her mission all alone
smiling of smells the sakura tree
even thou her eyes will not see
drifting from her self from bull shit nights
sleeping forget that it wount be alright
sleeping to forget the pain that is graves in her
heart
Mellowing out the sounds and dividing them apart

I Miss You
I think of you
when the sun comes out
and warms my face
and
when I close my eyes
and I can feel
your warm embrace
I think of you
when the stars at night
light up the sky
and
when I hear a love song
with a sad goodbye
I miss you
when the sun goes down
and the air is cold
and
when the song is over
and its her and not me
that your arms hold
I think of you
when the sun comes out
and warms my face
and
when I close my eyes
and I can feel
your warm embrace
I think of you
when the stars at night
light up the sky
and
when I hear a love song
with a sad goodbye
I miss you
when the sun goes down
and the air is cold
and
when the song is over
and its her and not me
that your arms hold
