Please
Please Please
I want to leave
take me away
Somewhere safe
Safe from the noise
Safe from rage
Safe from the traps
Of places which seem like a haven
But you realise
Time and time agian
They are just not
Please Please
How do i escape
And not just make a trade
From one prison
To another
I need to escape
I want to leave
take me away
Somewhere safe
Safe from the noise
Safe from rage
Safe from the traps
Of places which seem like a haven
But you realise
Time and time agian
They are just not
Please Please
How do i escape
And not just make a trade
From one prison
To another
I need to escape

My Gifts
I have one thousand knives
Sticking in my chest
Stomach
And cracks in my knees
Causing them to wobble
And faults in my spine
Causing them to bend
Those were your gifts to me
I also have enough fucking duct tape
To fix others fissures
Enough LEDS
To illuminate the world
With minimum electrical cost
Those were your gifts to me
I am savvy, cynical, broken and remade in a brittler form
With infinite cold mercy and empathy
Those were your gifts to me
Thank You?
Sticking in my chest

Holding On To You
I'm a little broken
But then so are you
There are worst things that
the gods could do
They brought us together
Did not take us apart
Gave a good ending
And an auspicious start
Life isn't easy
That isn't to say
That anyone promised
It would be that way
We may not be the strongest
But we are the same
In that we have each other
And we're not like the rest
But then so are you
There are worst things that
the gods could do
They brought us together
Did not take us apart
Gave a good ending
And an auspicious start
Life isn't easy
That isn't to say
That anyone promised
It would be that way
We may not be the strongest
But we are the same
In that we have each other
And we're not like the rest

Me
What is being sure anyway?
Closing your mind to other truths
Whats so good about choosing anyway
when you could have it all
Have nothing
Just you
Closing your mind to other truths
Whats so good about choosing anyway
when you could have it all
Have nothing
Just you

Inexperianced
Your lips
Oh
I feel it
Somewhere
Oh
Down
Ummm... There
Breathe in
Gasp
You feel warm
In my hands
On my body
Oh
My body
Wow
Oh
I feel dirty
For someone so clean
Oh
Dear me
Lips
Hips
Nipples
Electricity
Oh
I feel it
Somewhere
Oh
Down
Ummm... There
Breathe in
Gasp
You feel warm
In my hands
On my body
Oh
My body
Wow

Uphill Agian
Treading up a sandy slope
Is never an easy task
Try doing it with three essays
Four books
and five distraught friends
on your back
Pulling you back
Your foot slips when
You feel you had a firm holding
You make a headway but then
Fall behind
And the helping hand that you hoped on
Comes a day too late
You're a day too late
I try to keep treading up hill
Keep struggling through the falls
But every time my foot slips
I wonder if it was worth it at all
Is never an easy task
Try doing it with three essays
Four books
and five distraught friends
on your back
Pulling you back
Your foot slips when
You feel you had a firm holding
You make a headway but then
Fall behind
And the helping hand that you hoped on
Comes a day too late
You're a day too late
I try to keep treading up hill
Keep struggling through the falls
But every time my foot slips
I wonder if it was worth it at all

Mister Man
I run for you
Mister Man
I run so hard i think'll i'll break
If i take one more step
In the path you made
But i do
Mister Man tells me
That it's the best for us all
I'm doing me duty
I want to forsake me duty
I never do
But what about those
Mister Man forgets
The homeless, the hungry
The artists, the men
With rich daughters
And trust fund pets
Are completly forgotten
By Mister Man
Mister Man only cares
About the general masses
Mister Man only cares about me
It is so tempting to...

The Closet
Everyone is beautiful
Thats what i see
Yet i can't understand
Why people judge me
Keep giving me labels
Scared to say a word
About what i feel
About what i've learnt
Your beliefs aren't mine
But i accept that yours are true
Just as true as mine
Who i love, is not up to you
Thats what i see
Yet i can't understand
Why people judge me
Keep giving me labels
Scared to say a word
About what i feel
About what i've learnt
Your beliefs aren't mine
But i accept that yours are true
Just as true as mine
Who i love, is not up to you

Blind Love
Well this sucks
Its new
It isn't what i thought it would be
Im in love
He doesn't love me
It hurts when he jokes
When he talks to other girls
I want to be the only one
The one who makes his world
I dont understand
Why he can't see
Why is love always blind
When it comes to me?

Metaphore
Oh dear me
It seems
That my life is a bit of a mess
If my life was my room
I would straighten out my dolls
So they werent in a tumbled heap
Across the room
Keep them together and safe
They would live in a large house
With a garden
Never get into arguements about the odd shoe
And play together every day
I would also find my homework
Put it in neat piles
According to subject
So i never got told of
Or made to feel small
About what should have been obvious to me
I would arrange my books
SO...

My Dearest
If you can hide
For just awhile
In place of your own making
I promise you its worth it
If you can create
A land of dragons and monsters
Of noble deeds and kind hearts
I promise you its worth it
Find your place
Little one, of magic and wonder
Never forget it
Keep it safe forever
Run to your place
Little one, when you are sad
And your world torn asunder
Keep it safe forever
I created my place
I ran to it
And i found comfort in its arms
But if your dreams are lost
And your...

Wake Up
The barren wasteland
Of my soul
Is cold with little wind
I keep the points of light
Sheltered, unseen
I dont want to see them
Dont want to feel their warmth
Dont want to keep on living
Dont want to feel so cold
Of my soul
Is cold with little wind
I keep the points of light
Sheltered, unseen
I dont want to see them
Dont want to feel their warmth
Dont want to keep on living
Dont want to feel so cold
