the puppet to the needle (self harm)
This medicine would affect my mind I knew it from the start
There's always been something about needles
Thin splinters of metal sharpened to a fine point
The silver glint of the tip as it slides in
The push and give of the flesh beneath it
That feeling of it holding there in the flesh
The feeling of pressure from the syringe liquid then air
Then there's the way the flesh follows the needle
It is as if the flesh simply wants to be impaled
There are no words to describe how sick I am to feel this way
Too many times I've felt disgusted to find...

Let's Play
It's just a game for, ain't it?
It's chess, it's poker,
it's who can reach a thousand
Blink and you lose it all
Eyes locked, fingers on the gun
A glare at the starting line
Oh you my dear are something to fear
But my oh my are you thrilling
Who'll fold, who's dice will betray?
Will you fall? Or will I?
The dream at the end of the day
Is to simple watch as you
Crumble to your knees
To just hear you say it out loud
Tell me you love me
Make it pretty, please
It's chess, it's poker,
it's who can reach a thousand
Blink and you lose it all
Eyes locked, fingers on the gun
A glare at the starting line
Oh you my dear are something to fear
But my oh my are you thrilling
Who'll fold, who's dice will betray?
Will you fall? Or will I?
The dream at the end of the day
Is to simple watch as you
Crumble to your knees
To just hear you say it out loud
Tell me you love me
Make it pretty, please

Carved heart on the tree of time
Tattered strands of time blow in the wind
Parts of the strands breaking and flowing away
There's no end to the height of this tree
Thousands of words in thousands of languages
Make up it's rugged bark skin, reminiscing of old books
You could spend a life time making out the stories
Of those that came here before you
You even walked the desire path to the tree
Foot prints worn deeply into the earth
To finally see the endless tree of time
The closer your feet take you the taller it seems
With the whisper of cloth parting you pull out the...

I know Hunger
The memories of crying with my brother
No... Sobbing into my mother's lap
She was barely past being a teenager
I remember just how scared she was
And her rocking us back and forth
Repeating broken apologies through her own tears
Whispering that it'll be okay in the morning
There have been so many stretches of my life
Where food was not a given but a luxury
A hundred dollars a month doesn't feed anyone
And my family used to poach fish from the river
A bag of potatoes can't feed a lot of mouths
There are hungry kids in your community ...
No... Sobbing into my mother's lap

Where food was not a given but a luxury
A hundred dollars a month doesn't feed anyone
And my family used to poach fish from the river
A bag of potatoes can't feed a lot of mouths

Moonshine and Mermaids
The lies I've weaved tangle around my neck
What would you do to survive?
What measures would you take?
Even a suicidal person wants to survive on some level
And each time I've been prepared to take such actions
People have been there to grab me and pin me to existence
If people didn't love me, if people didn't care
I would not be here; living this lie
From one kind of survival to another
I have never chosen the role of victim
But people can see the pain in my eyes
And they're like insects drawn to the bug zapper
I'm just...

I can't accept you
Everyone tells me that I just have to let you be
To just learn to live with you in some kind of peace
But you're the one fucking ruining me; my life
Always overreacting, claws out first before anything
Sharp tongued and nasty, pointed jokes and sarcastic words
What is it about you that anyone could ever love you?
Oh you're so passionate, oh so protective; just fuck off
You're just a fucked up mosaic of broken glass shards
I wish you'd never came to haunt me and my life
Clawing at my skin, wishing I could tear you apart
Nails cutting open...
To just learn to live with you in some kind of peace
But you're the one fucking ruining me; my life
Always overreacting, claws out first before anything
Sharp tongued and nasty, pointed jokes and sarcastic words
What is it about you that anyone could ever love you?
Oh you're so passionate, oh so protective; just fuck off
You're just a fucked up mosaic of broken glass shards
I wish you'd never came to haunt me and my life
Clawing at my skin, wishing I could tear you apart
Nails cutting open...

Forest of Soul
I don't want to be a burden to you
Don't wish to be a cloud on your sunny day
I wish I could silence my shadows
For at times they just seem so loud
I'll never be as bright as sun light,
I'll never match the rainbows in the sky
My darkness lingers throughout my soul
Always hiding in the cracks of my mind
Tangling my feet at every step forwards
I'm sorry that I make you sad with my story
I try to hide my tears but so often I fail
Going from rain to hail in one small glimmer
I crumble so often under my own expectation ...
Don't wish to be a cloud on your sunny day
I wish I could silence my shadows
For at times they just seem so loud
I'll never be as bright as sun light,
I'll never match the rainbows in the sky
My darkness lingers throughout my soul
Always hiding in the cracks of my mind
Tangling my feet at every step forwards
I'm sorry that I make you sad with my story
I try to hide my tears but so often I fail
Going from rain to hail in one small glimmer
I crumble so often under my own expectation ...

the story of a goo girl
sometimes I forget I'm a bag of toxic waste
glowing goo through the black plastic
neon eyes looking through goggles
pulsing blue goo with streaks of black
press the knife right here and I'll pop
and you do so with an empty eyed stare
sobbing as I try to scoop myself up
and it's all just far too late to save me
just a toxic pool on the cement floor
glimmering self hatred spreading
black stringy lines of fetid self love
I don't know what to do staring up at you
I should be angry at you, shouldn't I?
oh my creator, bag maker, goo...
glowing goo through the black plastic
neon eyes looking through goggles
pulsing blue goo with streaks of black
press the knife right here and I'll pop
and you do so with an empty eyed stare
sobbing as I try to scoop myself up
and it's all just far too late to save me
just a toxic pool on the cement floor
glimmering self hatred spreading
black stringy lines of fetid self love
I don't know what to do staring up at you
I should be angry at you, shouldn't I?
oh my creator, bag maker, goo...
