Open Me Up
Open eyes
Open ears
Open lungs
And open veins.
Domingo en fuego
Open skies
Open clouds
Open thunder
And open rain.
Domingo en fuego
Open fears
Open thoughts
Open hopes
And open minds.
Domingo en fuego
Open me up,
Please...
I’ve opened my arms,
I can’t see you,
But I hope that you’re there.
Open ears
Open lungs
And open veins.
Domingo en fuego
Open skies
Open clouds
Open thunder
And open rain.
Domingo en fuego
Open fears
Open thoughts
Open hopes
And open minds.
Domingo en fuego
Open me up,
Please...
I’ve opened my arms,
I can’t see you,
But I hope that you’re there.

Domingo en fuego
The wind spins me five days away from Sunday,
The very particular day when all my problems are gone and I can say what’s on my mind,
The wind blows me ten days from hell raise no matter what I ever say,
It's a depressing day when I remember that there's most likely nothing to save me now.
Conclude my story with a leap--
Of faith to cascade into the deep,
Let me go so can find my twilight sleep,
For nothing in return I will weep.
Admittance to my problems and concluding my story of fake smiles and scolding a selfish thought,
The many...

A Night in the Forest
A night in the forest has been due for some time,
All those internal urges to scream and cry,
The times I wanted to dig a hold and die,
So I can tell you that a night in the woods would do me good.
A night in the woods would give me closure,
I don't have to feel the emotions that run down my spine,
Finding a shovel would be impossible in the ebony night,
This I why I say that a night in the forest is required.
But even a night in the woods would tear me down,
My eyes cannot see what is in front of me,
In the darkness of the forest...

To The Sea
Someone grabbed a hold of my hand and took it to the edge of the stream, where it flowed so suddenly into the precipice of the sea.
I missed the chance of getting a glace at the boy but I have a feeling that he knew me and that I knew him.
He dissipated into the overwhelming vastness of the sea,
I wish that I could say that I had accomplished something that day,
But all I saw was a back of a head and a lonely, burdened sea.
I came clean and told all truths,
Can you hold my hand again,
So that I can feel no fear,
Then the sea opens me up and...

Unverified Aspirations
Why do you keep guessing,
The emotions that are pressing,
Inside my brain's distressing,
You do not know the depressing,
my suicidal head's wrestling.
Back away from my choices,
You are one of the many faces,
That tell me I am voiceless,
That tell me I am faceless.
Stop.
Repeat what you just commanded,
Do you really think that I've just abandoned,
Remember I that am left-handed,
A voice that you take for granted,
But I have the advantage.
I am here to make my own purpose,
Even if I drown, I'll...

It's almost 2 and I'm looping my thoughts,
Repeated, Reiterated, Reoccurred, Dilated.
Sunken through air and ethereal steel,
I'm pleading for a meal,
To satiate my hunger,
For my eternal grave.
It's 2:00 and I'm finding no answers,
Within my brain,
Scanned, Manned, Retrospectively planned.
And I can't see myself reaping the weak,
yet I imagine myself holding a gun up to my head.
I'm pleading for His touch,
As an unbeliever, heretic, a deceiver,
Strike me down, God, now.
Send me down to my eternal slumber.

Let Me Sleep
I hope it is sufficient that the reason for my purpose is unknown,
I will try my own damn hardest to prevent my legs from sinking,
The forest surrounding me keeps caving into reckless abandon,
I will finally surrender so I'm back on the ground,
Rocking back and forth to try and plead, "mercy me!"
Cause simply living feels like a force to reckoned with,
and I just want to get some sleep so that I can face the day,
Won't you let me sleep tonight?
Won't you let me sleep tonight?
Won't you?
Won't you?
Won't you let me sleep tonight? ...

The Car and the Body
Been driving for hours,
My hands off the wheel,
Staring at the meteor showers,
The time ticks slowly as I reveal how I feel.
Then I see the night has arrived,
So I’ll grab my map and turn on the lights,
The road begins it’s journey as it suddenly contrived,
Into fear and it just so happens that it might,
Watch me slowly be deprived.
The car slows down at the cliff,
And I’ll look out over the edge,
I see my porcelain body, stiff,
I realize that it had jumped itself off of the ledge.
The car then begins to drive...
My hands off the wheel,
Staring at the meteor showers,

Into fear and it just so happens that it might,
Watch me slowly be deprived.

And I’ll look out over the edge,

Pills
The trees wave their arms as I desperately plead,
For something so much bigger than me,
I know it'll never come but I always try my best.
I'm numbed out from all those happy pills,
That're inside my system,
I can't feel anything other than my breath.
The sun shines through my window,
I see what I was meant to see and leave,
I know I was never the best person but I still try.
I'm numbed out from all those happy pills,
They flow through my systems,

Trees
Standing under the trees
Under the canopies
It's a symphony and your voice is leading
I can't take credit for something I did do
I'll just hand it over to you
Maybe you'll grow and become famous
Then I can watch as you smile and laugh at Mr. Lake
Standing under the trees
Under the galaxies
It's the big bang and our voices caused it
I am dying with every step
I am dying with every breath
but the last part of my soul still lives
The part that lives for you
Standing under the trees ...
Under the canopies
It's a symphony and your voice is leading
I can't take credit for something I did do
I'll just hand it over to you
Maybe you'll grow and become famous
Then I can watch as you smile and laugh at Mr. Lake
Standing under the trees
Under the galaxies
It's the big bang and our voices caused it
I am dying with every step
I am dying with every breath
but the last part of my soul still lives
The part that lives for you
Standing under the trees ...

Boredom is the Word
Feeling like making something but you can't come up with anything at all.
Your brain is going haywire to find something to do,
Creativity has lost it's capabilities and you're debilitated,
Time goes so much slower and the clock is moving on it's own dime,
Feels like you could drown yourself in blank white walls and stale chips.
Boredom is the word you know and hate,
Thinking of simpler times,
When you could find fun in a rock by the creek.
Boredom is the word you know and hate.
Wishing that you had a gun to shoot up the toilet for a...

Unforgivable Denial
I'm struggling to understand, Lord,
As I stand in front of you,
Chest wide open for you to see,
Won't you wash me, free?
I can't feel you here by my side,
And I'm just a son who's scared,
could you give me some closure tonight?
I've denied myself to you,
I've denied my soul for you,
I've denied and I'm a sinner.
I've fallen in a pit so deep,
that I fear you cannot reach,
Cause I don't believe in you,
But I fall into your arms every night,
Hoping you're there to save me,
But I don't feel your breath on my...
