Prisoner Of The Mind
I am a prisoner of my mind
Locked and stowed away within my own conscience
Come nighttime,
I am farthest from myself
My brain drowns in thought
Enabling ill feelings and remorse to consume me
I toss and turn restlessly
Searching for comfort,
Comfort I know I'll never be able to find.
Locked and stowed away within my own conscience
Come nighttime,
I am farthest from myself
My brain drowns in thought
Enabling ill feelings and remorse to consume me
I toss and turn restlessly
Searching for comfort,
Comfort I know I'll never be able to find.

Wayward
Ice cream smiles
decorate our face
"Come home before curfew!"
We'd purposely stay out late
Running with scissors
"You'll poke your eye out kid!"
We'd slash holes in all the furniture
Point and laugh at what we did
Hopscotch and sidewalk chalk
Let's paint the town in red
The future is our canvas
There's no telling whats ahead
The glory days before us
Distant memories come to pass
All the white lies and secrecy
The passing of notes in class
We wanted to see the real world

Make It Stop! (My Suicide Story)
The story of my suicide
Will for sure be front page
"Breaking News!" Another teen down
Who was bullied for being Gay
And as I inch closer,
And closer to the edge
I reflect on all the hatred,
And harmful words said
"Go to hell, faggot!
You devilish feen
You've got it all twisted
It's Adam & Eve!"
Those words are the bullets,
In the shaft of my gun
It's the blood on my wrists,
That ceases to run
It's the knife that couldn't cut,
Just a few more inches deeper
It's the cliff that...

Fireflies
Remember the prime of our upbringing?
Sprawled across the greenest of lawn
Catching fireflies with our bare hands
Watching in awe as they'd light up our palms
They'd buzz and we'd buzz with them
They slept by our beds in jars
It was a representation of our friendship
A promise we'd never drift apart
And if such a day was to happen
And forever had faded to grey
We'd uncap our collection of fireflies
And watch as they all flew away
-"Lucid Dreamer: The Story Of Two"

Runaway
Here's to the dreams we can no longer achieve
Here's to the life we're ready to leave
Here's to the pain
The suffering
And crying
Here's to the days where we feel like dying.
For if we stay here,
We're no better than dead
Cause this life's a loaded gun
Aimed and pointed at our heads
In the end it's up to us
To make our final move
Caught frozen in the moment
Questioning what we have to lose..

Cloud 8
One cloud short of victory
another sore taste of defeat
I gotta do what it takes to win it now
And have the courage to land on my feet
I can't let the heights get the best of me
I must progress before it's too late
I've been treading these skies for a while now
In an attempt to escape from cloud eight

Lucid Dreamer
Spiral bound secrets
Words drenched in ink
Black and white momentos
Wash over me while I think
Eyes moving rapidly
On the hunt for inspiration
Painstakingly irritated
Overcome by exasperation
Doodles upon doodles
Eyes grow heavy, body unwinds
As I dip into my dreamland
You won't believe the things one finds
Miles of imagination
Past memories left behind
So I pick up my pen and paper
And write whatever comes to mind
