You're a gut wrencher
My stomach flips as I look at the calendar
Mind racing as I stare at the clock
The date is racing towards me
A demon with arms wide open
And eyes blazing
His name is Mid May
The date that you plan
On ruining my life
Mind racing as I stare at the clock
The date is racing towards me
A demon with arms wide open
And eyes blazing
His name is Mid May
The date that you plan
On ruining my life

One way mirror
On the outside, looking in
You see a pale blonde
With piercing blue eyes
With scars on his body
And stitches ripping at his heart
Tall and lanky
Large and handsome
Like a one way mirror
You can't see the inside
The broken screams
The uttered hatred
Spitting curses like venom
In the eyes and ears of all who pass
The lies he's heard and the loves
He never felt
You only see the mask
Not the pain that was dealt
You see a pale blonde
With piercing blue eyes
With scars on his body
And stitches ripping at his heart
Tall and lanky
Large and handsome
Like a one way mirror
You can't see the inside
The broken screams
The uttered hatred
Spitting curses like venom
In the eyes and ears of all who pass
The lies he's heard and the loves
He never felt
You only see the mask
Not the pain that was dealt

Racks my body
Shivers rack my body as the blade kisses
The pale creases of my porcelain skin
I close my eyes and inhale sharply
But not as sharp as the blade
Dark red blood bubbles up
Like roses blooming in the spring
Growing bigger and bolder
Until they turn into a river of petals
Blowing down my wrists
A ruby garden of denial
A blushing wound
A sin,Oh,
So vile.
The pale creases of my porcelain skin
I close my eyes and inhale sharply
But not as sharp as the blade
Dark red blood bubbles up
Like roses blooming in the spring
Growing bigger and bolder
Until they turn into a river of petals
Blowing down my wrists
A ruby garden of denial
A blushing wound
A sin,Oh,
So vile.

Notice
Old fears arise
At the mention of your name
Old lust stay buried
At the thought of your game
You never thought I'd catch on
That I'm too stupid to notice
But that's all I day
The scars on your wrists
Match the ones on mine
The pain you feel
I called mine first
I notice your lies
Your eyes
But the one thing I never noticed
Was how you can't stand to say
Good fucking bye
At the mention of your name
Old lust stay buried
At the thought of your game
You never thought I'd catch on
That I'm too stupid to notice
But that's all I day
The scars on your wrists
Match the ones on mine
The pain you feel
I called mine first
I notice your lies
Your eyes
But the one thing I never noticed
Was how you can't stand to say
Good fucking bye

Ruby red
Ruby Red
Like the lines on your wrists
Or the thoughts in your head
The vision in front of your eyes
The noise you hear
Ruby Red
Signaling your end is near.

The vision in front of your eyes

Shut up c**t
Don't tell me what fear is
Until you've walked hand in hand
With the devil
Don't tell me what love is
Until she's ripped out your heart
And given it to your best friend
Don't tell me what bravery is
Until you've made your father cry
At the sight of ruby lines on your wrists
Don't tell me what anger is
Until you've had a gun pointed to your head
And you told them to pull the trigger
Don't tell me what healthy is
Until you held the gun to your own head
And pulled the trigger
Don't tell me anything
Just shut the fuck up
Until...
Until you've walked hand in hand
With the devil
Don't tell me what love is
Until she's ripped out your heart
And given it to your best friend
Don't tell me what bravery is
Until you've made your father cry
At the sight of ruby lines on your wrists
Don't tell me what anger is
Until you've had a gun pointed to your head
And you told them to pull the trigger
Don't tell me what healthy is
Until you held the gun to your own head
And pulled the trigger
Don't tell me anything
Just shut the fuck up
Until...

You.
Need to close your mouth
Along with your legs
Before you choke on the fumes
And gag on the bullshit you spew
Along with your legs
Before you choke on the fumes
And gag on the bullshit you spew

Choice
There's a time when we are forced
To decide
Do we want to live
Or die.
This choice is often made
In the minds of broken
And the hearts of the Holy
Whether your ritual is a blade
Or a bottle of pills
The ultimate choice
The only one I've ever made
Let the world cower in fear
Never quiet your voice
To decide
Do we want to live
Or die.
This choice is often made
In the minds of broken
And the hearts of the Holy
Whether your ritual is a blade
Or a bottle of pills
The ultimate choice
The only one I've ever made
Let the world cower in fear
Never quiet your voice

kissing razors
The very thought of you makes me sick
I puke up my feelings
And shit out my heart
The the thought of your lips touching mine again
Rips my throat apart
Kissing you would be deadly
Like kissing razors
The bite of cold steel
Is nothing compared to you
Or the pain you make me feel
Hell may be full
But with you back on earth
There's a spot open for us
You said you loved me
That you'd stay forever
But I'd rather burn in hell for eternity
Then feel the touch of your claws
Or the sting of your venomous
Fucking
Lies...
I puke up my feelings
And shit out my heart
The the thought of your lips touching mine again
Rips my throat apart
Kissing you would be deadly
Like kissing razors
The bite of cold steel
Is nothing compared to you
Or the pain you make me feel
Hell may be full
But with you back on earth
There's a spot open for us
You said you loved me
That you'd stay forever
But I'd rather burn in hell for eternity
Then feel the touch of your claws
Or the sting of your venomous
Fucking

Rebound
I'm not just some rebound
Like everyone seems to say
I've stood by your side through it all
Every fucking day
These eyes saw and this heart felt
Anger love disgust rage
You broke my heart before you even had it
Yet still I stayed
Wondering and debating
Burying my feelings like my dick
In the others that came through
Trying to hide the truth
That I was in love with you
Every single cut
Every single tear cried
I was there
Always waiting by your side
But here's the twist
You're the one by me
Supporting and caressing...
