Antisocial Egotistical Sadomasochist
Pain is all about perspective
mine makes me feel alive
and yours has me salivating
you pave your road to hell
with good intent
I don't really buy into it, but if I go
I'm going down a fucking legend
you see things in black in white
but I see a lot of grey areas
and quite a bit of red
you call it selfish if you want
I call it self-preservation
while I keep my distance
I can do 90 in a 40
without even breaking a sweat
it's all a fucking game to me
...

Broken
You took a second look at me
but I don't know what you could see
I'm sure by now you're well aware
that I'm in need of some repair
I've bloodshot eyes and broken teeth
each night I cry myself to sleep
I never thought much of myself
just want to be somebody else
my eyes are dull, words softly spoke
you might assume my spirit’s broke
I have one eye that just won't see
what my decisions do to me
I have two ears that just won't hear
that sometimes I don't see things...

Behind A Blank Stare And A Hollow, Empty Smile
I spark the fire, breathe it in
and for awhile, I'm free again
but behind this smile I wear a frown
‘cos I know I'll be coming down
but I still hide behind the smile
no worries for a little while
this emptiness I felt before
it doesn't matter anymore
destroy my fears, erase my doubts
until again I'm running out
and then I won't, I can't endure
I'll find a way to find some more
my life means nothing, empty now
my friends don't ever come around
but I won't let it bother me
I'll get another bag of...

Seasons
The sun shined rays of hope until
it scorched us with it's heat
the skies welled up and turned to rain
until they turned to sleet
when all that lived had seemed to die
into its gloom we slid
the rays of hope had turned to lies
so in our homes we hid
the rays had turned to bitter cold
and shortened with the days
I felt there was no turning back
as we both parted ways
but now those rays are warm once more
and flowers are in bloom
the beauty can be seen again
it's time to leave our...

Rollercoaster
It's time to lay my past to rest
and lift this weight up from my chest
it's time to let the memories fade
and look ahead, to better days
I don't what I'm going to do
but know that it will be with you
through highs and lows, let come what may
I'll be with you through better days
I'm off this rollercoaster ride
that tears away at my insides
I really know of nothing else
I worry I might lose myself
I feel this beating in my chest
that I thought had been laid to rest
it hadn't gone, just...
and lift this weight up from my chest
it's time to let the memories fade
and look ahead, to better days
I don't what I'm going to do

through highs and lows, let come what may
I'll be with you through better days
I'm off this rollercoaster ride
that tears away at my insides
I really know of nothing else
