Bottom
Down below that line for me.
Alone , wanting to be free.
I sunk so fast, the chains that bind.
Always grasping for that thing i will never find.
Its down so deep you could never see it from above.
If you sit up on your horse .
never to straying , your straight and narrow course.
You may never find a friend ..
One to hold you at the end.
Beaten and scared up from all them pins.
I found a friend to laugh with me, oh my endless sins.
One to walk with me rather than mearlie tell the way.
Ill give this thing just one more fucking day.

Freedom
Death is me you see , my mind and soul.
All the illusions, have i lost control .
Tomorrow it ends just like it started.
pain and sorrow is departed.
Shame and the guilt is all that i see.
You know these are gifts from me.
The steel and the blood .
The steel and the blood.
Things people say can't take this away.
They have all been here they say.
Tomorrow it ends just like it started.
With the screaming of daemons being departed.
Illusions all illusions You see..

House rules ( childhood)
Your first steps were skewed but right.
You never could sleep through the night.
Don't trust, don't feel, don't talk, you see.
Please just set me free.
You cried and cried, they could not care less .
pain within, could not be less.
care, the touch of a moms caress.
You missed it then , I miss it less.
always to blame.
What a shame .
Don't trust, don't feel, don't talk, you see.
Please just set me free.
Never could do right.
Never could sleep through the night.
Shame it is. It keeps you there....
You never could sleep through the night.
Don't trust, don't feel, don't talk, you see.
Please just set me free.

Today
Today is the day,
from this world I will part.
It's not the drugs, although they did play there part.
These daemons that scream inside my head.
This depression still lingers my feet feel like lead.
I can no longer walk.
I can't hardly talk.
Afraid of the future, Ashamed of my past.
I will find that freedom at last .
I lay here awake wishing for sleep.
Why do I feel everything so deep.
It will be messy no planning for me.
Take me today , please set me free.
Freedom is more precious than gold.

The edge
Today as I sit here on the edge.
these thoughts never leave my head.
I was once strong as an ox they say.
one more thing I threw away.
I wore my mind thin, so they say .
Why can't I find room to push these thoughts away.
My jaw is clenched and so are my fists.
Take me today,
was it all for this?
Take me today.
Take me today for I need no lie.
This world swallows my love and doesn't give back.
It's as if there all on crack.
Cracks no joke just ask me.
But crystal your the one for me.
Take me today...

Lonely soul
One day now two .
So lonely without you.
Tomorrow will be three.
When I wake up will you be there next to me.
Just let her go , loose the fear.
3 Hearts aching for you to be near.
I wake again so lonely and cold.
Your not here and that's getting old.
Wondering now what will become of me.
Im Not letting on , i am not what I'm pretending to be.
Three and four days now its clear.
What I fear the most now it's here.
If I could just save you now , you know I would.
But your running and gunning out there in the hood....
So lonely without you.
Tomorrow will be three.
When I wake up will you be there next to me.

Goodby
I once loved a woman, so beautifull & strong.
Alone now wondering how it all went so wrong.
She changed slowly over time .
I should have listened, everyone told me I was buying a line.
Day by day I gave more of my soul.
So much at last , I lost control.
My heart spiraled to the depths of the sea.
So broken now, a million little pieces that was me.
You can have the memories , it's all in the past.
I am doing this alone , a steel hearts been cast.
Your selfish ways, I'm through with those to.
Just burned last picture of you.
Before all the...

The Promises
Things aren't always happy and grand.
But I'm no longer the one with his head in the sand.
Im raising my kids & feeding them to.
all the fortune and fame im through with that to.
Selling my possessions, putting food on the table.
These days im just glad to be able.
Where was once spoons and thugs.
Now im sweeping and washing the rugs.
I still have some pains.
all that junk i shot in my veins.
I wont say im happy i wasted those times.
But slowly forgiving myself For all those lines.
I once was a man of honor and creed.
Traded it...

All i loved
All I have loved , so burnt and twisted.
the time we had was it wasted.
I learned of pain that cuts to the bone The wonder of a guilt , that you will never own.
So many wrongs they could never be listed.
More Sour emotions, than you ever tasted.
Lost to the wind , one more time iv sinned.
Why did you wink, when I grinned.
All that we loved , was good while it lasted.
To many hurts , we already listed.
I sit here waiting again, while you get twisted.
I am wounded and hurt, I'd wished you'd kissed it.
All alone in...

Speed daemon
The call you crank , meth, crystal & speed.
I call you a jail from which I will never
be freed.
When I first met you at 16 I was in love.
You tugged at my soul, but I flew like a dove.
Never knowing which way to go.
Dancing with the wind each time it would blow.
I remember that day in march 98 .
I told you I quit and I had A hot date.
They say once you have your hook in me.
You may be a man but you will never break free.
Then in the summer of two aught
twelve .
You were so clear so perfect ....
I call you a jail from which I will never
be freed.
When I first met you at 16 I was in love.
You tugged at my soul, but I flew like a dove.
Never knowing which way to go.
Dancing with the wind each time it would blow.
I remember that day in march 98 .

They say once you have your hook in me.
