Can she love you like I can?
I seen the parts of you you tried to hide
been introduced to the demons you tried to disguise
gave you everything I had inside
and in return you gave me lies.
Found you at your darkest
sacrificed mine so you wouldn't be heartless
plunged myself right into your darkness
you took a masterpiece and made it artless
poured everything into you until the sky was starless.
Loved you still when I seen you at your worst
should have known then our love was cursed
took it so far to make it back to the start
our demons were tearing us apart ...

You made me love
I love you because you saved me
You found me when I was lost
Abandoned all hope in the dark
And joy stripped from my veins
Then you cane along and held me
Made me believe I deserved to live.
I hate you because you loved me
All the years I spent guarding my heart
Came crashing down around me
You had found a crack in the stone
And pried it open just enough
To plant yourself in my chest
You made me vulnerable and scared.
I love you because you made me feel
No longer a slave to the emptiness
Ignited life...
You found me when I was lost
Abandoned all hope in the dark
And joy stripped from my veins
Then you cane along and held me
Made me believe I deserved to live.
I hate you because you loved me
All the years I spent guarding my heart
Came crashing down around me
You had found a crack in the stone
And pried it open just enough
To plant yourself in my chest
You made me vulnerable and scared.
I love you because you made me feel
No longer a slave to the emptiness
Ignited life...

A childhood lost
The bed groans and creeks beneath me
tears stain the pillow as I lay my head
My body bruised and beaten
For whatever sin I’ve committed today.
I draw my knees to my face and sob
What’s left of my soul cries out
Wondering why my mother hates me
So much she hurts me.
Your voice screeches through the house
As you pound up the stairs,
My heart beats out of my chest to hide
In an effort to save itself from you.
The punches and kicks come quick
Please tell me I’m wrong
But is that a smile on your face
When the blood...
tears stain the pillow as I lay my head
My body bruised and beaten
For whatever sin I’ve committed today.
I draw my knees to my face and sob
What’s left of my soul cries out
Wondering why my mother hates me
So much she hurts me.
Your voice screeches through the house
As you pound up the stairs,
My heart beats out of my chest to hide
In an effort to save itself from you.
The punches and kicks come quick
Please tell me I’m wrong
But is that a smile on your face
When the blood...

Broken promises
I told myself I’d never be this broke again
That I’d never give anyone the power
To tear me apart from inside
And rip my heart to shreds,
Yet here I am on my knees
Staring to the sky in hope
That God will show some mercy.
I said I’d never find myself here again
That no one would get close enough
To drive a knife into my chest
And I wouldn’t be so blinded by love
To be the one to apologise
For getting blood on their hands,
I swore I’d never find myself weeping
Curled up in a ball replaying memories
That only...
That I’d never give anyone the power
To tear me apart from inside
And rip my heart to shreds,
Yet here I am on my knees
Staring to the sky in hope
That God will show some mercy.
I said I’d never find myself here again
That no one would get close enough
To drive a knife into my chest
And I wouldn’t be so blinded by love
To be the one to apologise
For getting blood on their hands,
I swore I’d never find myself weeping
Curled up in a ball replaying memories
That only...

This is the end my friends
This is the end my friends
it seems I've lost my mind
what a fool I've been
to ever believe that I
could get away unscathed.
This is the end my friends
it seems our efforts were in vain,
in my efforts to find myself
I've lost myself instead
although I could have survived that
but losing you all too
is what made my veins run dry.
This is the end my friends
it seems there's no hope left for me
my bones filled with dread
and my heart of sorrow,
how I wish I could rip my brain from its cage
and bury it deep into...

Grieving for the living
Tell me how the words tasted
When they fell out of your mouth
Did you not feel yourself unraveling
When you walked away,
Was it because you planned it before
Or did you just never really care?
What are you doing with the memories
Mine have fashioned themselves
Into tears that formed an ocean
I find myself drowning in at night
Funny how what once kept me afloat
Is now slowly killing me.
Are you keeping the photographs
Do you wake up to find them crumpled in your hand
With tear stains droplets in the corners
Where...
When they fell out of your mouth
Did you not feel yourself unraveling
When you walked away,
Was it because you planned it before
Or did you just never really care?
What are you doing with the memories
Mine have fashioned themselves
Into tears that formed an ocean
I find myself drowning in at night
Funny how what once kept me afloat
Is now slowly killing me.
Are you keeping the photographs
Do you wake up to find them crumpled in your hand
With tear stains droplets in the corners

Mom if you ever find this
Mom if you ever find this
I want you to know I hate you
for what you've done to me
even when we cut each other
out of our lives,
the wounds you left on my mind
still writhe in agony at night.
Mom if you ever find this
I want you to know you won
we thought when I got away from your abuse
that I was safe,
that thought lulled me to sleep
and filled you with rage,
but I was wrong to think I'd gotten away unbroken.

Confess your sins
Give yourself to me
let me hear the lust in your voice
look me in the eyes
promise me your will
and I'll give you all you need.
Scream my name
surrender your body
confess your sins to me
I'll spare you from God
and I'll give you your punishment.
I drink up your body
like holy wine to cleanse my soul
there's no rest for the wicked
get on your knees
and repent for your sins.
I see you roll your head
I am the snake and you are Eve

I'm falling again
I'm sorry to my friends
who have sat with me in the dark
I'm sorry you have to hear these words once more
and I am sorry
you will have to witness this
for what seems the hundredth time,
but I am falling again.
I am sorry that the days we spent
piecing me back together again
seem to be in vain
because the moment the sun sets
insomnia creeps into my bed
and anxiety sweeps me up into its arms
and I wish i could tell you I pushed it away
I wish I could tell you i held my ground
but every time I tried
Depression...

Lead me back to him
I lay awake at night
I dare not close my eyes
for when I do I'll dream of you
and I'll be responsible
for breaking my own heart.
In my head I hear your voice
melody to my aching soul,
I feel a phantom of your touch
tears fill my eyes as I reach out
to the empty side of my bed haunted by your ghost.
My mind flees back to the start
if I could go back
with all that I know now
I'd never have hurt you like I did
I am ashamed to say your hearts scars
are the result of loving me.
My eyes rise to meet...
I dare not close my eyes
for when I do I'll dream of you
and I'll be responsible
for breaking my own heart.
In my head I hear your voice
melody to my aching soul,

Did you think it would be enough
Can you feel the emptiness inside your chest
as you lay your head down and weep
for you the night offers no rest
the price of affection is steep,
your pain runs deep
you gave your heart away
and the price is now yours to pay
left your soul in dismay,
did you think it would be enough?
Can you feel your veins run dry
you've filled yourself with naught but lies
left yourself with nothing
poured it all into those you loved
love is suicide but to live without love is to die
you were always there when they cry
did...

Little one
I felt the change in my body
Before you’d even grown,
The love I felt for you so strong
That if it had the power to save you
I’m sure it would be your lifeline.
Little one I can’t tell you
How much I looked forward to seeing you
Who would you look like,
Would you have my eyes
And your fathers smile
I guess I’ll never know.
Would you have been mammies little prince
Or Daddy’s baby girl,
Would you have had my unruly red hair
Or curly black locks
What would be your first word
That you never got to...
