Pills. And Razors. And Lighters. And ropes.
Pill, Razor, Lighter, Rope
Pill and Razor
Lighter and rope
I'm giving up there is no hope
Ready to die
And I swallow my pills
Using the razor
And my blood spills
Lighters for cigarettes
And taking my pain away
Dancing with death, "let's"
Getting worse every day
Pretty little rope
Shaped just like a noose
Snapping my neck
Like years of abuse
Breaking my heart
Into a million pieces
Hoping that my life
Just seizes
Fuck it
Maybe I am a whore
Suicidal too
God I always...

Alice.
I left my Window open
So Peter could come in
And I've been looking for the rabbit
To go down the hole again
And I've been singing while I clean
And hoping for a ball
I've been walking around
Waiting for John Smith to call
I keep waiting for someone to wake me up
I'm getting pale from my sickly state
And I'm white as snow
So the cuts against my skin seem to glow
I don't need a prince charming
That never concerned me
I don't need A damsel in distress either
That's not who I want to be
I don't want to rely on...

Ghetto Love Story
I love him to death
And If I had to let him know
I'd waste all my breath
Til There was not any air left
Because I need Him to know
What he means to me
And our love will grow
Into what we need it to be
Him and I, we fight a lot
And I know it makes him "sad"
When We argue even hell does not seem hot
But he knew how I was, "bad"
I don't treat him right
And I lead him astray
But he knows I'll come back to him
At the end of the day
Maybe If I had not gotten treated
The way that I did...
And If I had to let him know
I'd waste all my breath
Til There was not any air left
Because I need Him to know
What he means to me
And our love will grow
Into what we need it to be
Him and I, we fight a lot
And I know it makes him "sad"
When We argue even hell does not seem hot
But he knew how I was, "bad"
I don't treat him right
And I lead him astray
But he knows I'll come back to him
At the end of the day
Maybe If I had not gotten treated
The way that I did...

Whores Glory
The eyes are the window to the soul
And death will be the end of mine
Some are Dead in life
And I can see it in their eyes
Pain and Regret is all I see
And her deadly soul I'll leave to be
She does what she needs to make it a day
And everything he needs, he gets his way
She lost herself Long ago
And Being down on her knees is all she can know
Praying to God, Mouth open wide
Taking it in, She swallows her pride
Because she does what she needs to make it a day
Momma told her she can't make it living this way
Now she's...
And death will be the end of mine
Some are Dead in life
And I can see it in their eyes
Pain and Regret is all I see
And her deadly soul I'll leave to be
She does what she needs to make it a day
And everything he needs, he gets his way
She lost herself Long ago
And Being down on her knees is all she can know
Praying to God, Mouth open wide
Taking it in, She swallows her pride
Because she does what she needs to make it a day
Momma told her she can't make it living this way

Him and I, Not you and Me
It burns when you put your hands on me
My Ears sing a thousand screams
and I'm praying for you to be him
It stings when I wake up from my dreams
Everyday you look at me and it hurts
I wish you were him and I cry every night
Wondering why god punishes me
Because I would try if I could but I fight
And I fight no longer
When you wrap your arms around me
I hum our song His and Mine
Not you and me,no us not we
And When you touch me I taste raw sewage
My ears begin to ring
You're killing me inside because you're...
My Ears sing a thousand screams
and I'm praying for you to be him
It stings when I wake up from my dreams
Everyday you look at me and it hurts
I wish you were him and I cry every night
Wondering why god punishes me
Because I would try if I could but I fight
And I fight no longer
When you wrap your arms around me

Not you and me,no us not we

Holocaust
Do you see me standing?
Do you see me standing here?
The sand pouring from my eyes and being swallowed by my tongue!
And now I'm choking and flies are swarming.
After the Holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
I am covered. Now.
They were born here, made from my mind.
Where will these flies go when I have nothing left to give?
When I have thought, these flies have been made.
So when my mind dies like my body; Where will they go?
After the holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
After my life...
Will I still be...
Do you see me standing here?
The sand pouring from my eyes and being swallowed by my tongue!
And now I'm choking and flies are swarming.
After the Holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
I am covered. Now.
They were born here, made from my mind.
Where will these flies go when I have nothing left to give?
When I have thought, these flies have been made.
So when my mind dies like my body; Where will they go?
After the holocaust bodies were covered in flies.
After my life...

When I Was Young
When I was young I had a plan
That could let my baby live
When I was young my baby died
And It killed me within
When I was young I fell in love
with a man too old for me
When I was young I let him take me
To a Place I didn't want to be
When I was young we had a plan
To let my baby live
When I was young my baby died
And the man I could never forgive
I'm no longer young
But I haven't aged
I'm without both of them now
And I'm no longer caged
That could let my baby live
When I was young my baby died
And It killed me within
When I was young I fell in love
with a man too old for me
When I was young I let him take me
To a Place I didn't want to be
When I was young we had a plan
To let my baby live
When I was young my baby died
And the man I could never forgive
I'm no longer young
But I haven't aged
I'm without both of them now
And I'm no longer caged

Name.
It's tugging at my chest
Pulling the strands of my heart
It makes me feel at rest
When the night hits and my tears start
I don't know what it is about it
that makes my mouth freeze
and I don't know what it is about that
that makes my life seize
My whole heart skips a beat
And the hole in my body makes itself known
The Earth crumbles at my feet
And I feel fear in every bone
I've reached for something forbidden
And held it in my grasp
Now I keep it hidden
But when it happens I can't choke down my gasp
It's...
Pulling the strands of my heart
It makes me feel at rest
When the night hits and my tears start
I don't know what it is about it
that makes my mouth freeze
and I don't know what it is about that
that makes my life seize
My whole heart skips a beat
And the hole in my body makes itself known
The Earth crumbles at my feet
And I feel fear in every bone

Now I keep it hidden
But when it happens I can't choke down my gasp

Smoke Filled Tears
Our eyes meet
You're begging me to rescue you
And If you look in my eyes you'll see I'm begging you too
As I'm on the roof
I contemplate
Combining my height and my weight
Thinking I could loose a pound or two
That way when I hit the cloud like ground
Maybe I'll float away pound upon pound
As I whisper to your ear
A tear drops from your eye
And your words fill with fear
I'm so sorry I never meant to make you cry
And If I told you I was really just desperate for attention
Would you dismiss my whispers as a lie
And I wish someone...

Strest.
Deep in those blue-green eyes
It's a swamp full of muck
I'm the girl your parents warned you about when they said
,"The bad will get you stuck."
All my eyes have seen is horror
Without my razor there is no relief
And that's the only fact that can double as a belief
My smoke is the only thing that keeps me calm
It's the only reason I smile during the day and
,"Play along."
Starving and puking is the only thing that can bring me to any form of beauty
And that brings shame to my family
They say...

Burnt
Bathing in the ashes
Of What the past has left behind
From a destructive blaze
That started as a flicker in my mind
The burnt up memories hold my gaze
I've been crying to these ashes for days upon days
Asking them to take me back
"TAKE ME BACK!" to when life was good
An idiot child
Who never understood
Take me back to my old ways
The past memories will agree, Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
My heart seems metallic
So my crying will surely make it rust
So easy to break, Not easy to find
And these ashes...
Of What the past has left behind
From a destructive blaze
That started as a flicker in my mind
The burnt up memories hold my gaze
I've been crying to these ashes for days upon days
Asking them to take me back
"TAKE ME BACK!" to when life was good
An idiot child
Who never understood
Take me back to my old ways
The past memories will agree, Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
My heart seems metallic
So my crying will surely make it rust
So easy to break, Not easy to find
