The Last Cig
Sitting at the bench in the park
Taking out my last fag, as the place got dark
I held the fag in my right hand
And stared at the ground where my lighter just land
I picked up the lighter, covering my hand over the fag
It's shows smokers aren't attractive, proof is the lady just gag
I ignore the faces, and take a puff out of my cancer stick
What a sight some may think I'm a prick
For every puff i take, the closer I am to death
Cigs could be charged for theft
Cigs have committed a crime
Yet I don't give a dime
I...

The Headlights
As I walked down the street
Not knowing it would be the last time I would stand on my feet
I walked away from what seemed to be an awful site
I've seen my parents fight
They were passed arguing, why do they even bother
I've seen them screaming and hitting each other
I had to walk out of there
How could this be fair?
It made me scared, tears was all that can come out
What was that all about
As i crossed the street, my mind full of thoughts
I've forgotten everything they have fought
A sudden light blinded me
I...

Trapped
Have you ever been trapped?
With no way of escaping?
Trapped in a place that's called... your head...your mind?
Voices in your head telling you things; horrible things;
Your alone, your scared, thinking what did I do?
Screaming for help but nobody can hear?
Lost, abandoned, pain, scared, unwanted, worthless, dread, sickening...
Heard people calling you names behind your back?
Wanting to be dead, to see who would actually care?
Wanting to disappear from existence?
Looking for help; but none can be found?
Being ignored from those who are...

True Love
All i can do is love you
I can bare to imagine a world without you
My life is like a song and you are my melody
Maybe one day you will marry me

The Right to be Human
Everyone has the right to feel loneliness
Everyone has the right to be the star of their movie
Everyone has the right to be the protagonist of their story
Everyone has a secret they hope no one will ever know
Everyone has the right to say no
Everyone has the right to be different
Everyone has the right to be dependent
Everyone has the right to have freedom
But sadly,
Everyone is selfish
Everyone is self centred
Everyone judges
Where is humanity
Are we in calamity
Everyone has the right to be the star of their movie
Everyone has the right to be the protagonist of their story
Everyone has a secret they hope no one will ever know
Everyone has the right to say no
Everyone has the right to be different
Everyone has the right to be dependent
Everyone has the right to have freedom
But sadly,
Everyone is selfish
Everyone is self centred
Everyone judges
Where is humanity
Are we in calamity

One's Broken Soul
Have you've ever bloomed
Or do you think you're doomed
Seeing the people around you succeed
But all you do is cry and grieve
Neglected by others, loneliness is your only friend
Sadness is the only thing you feel but until what end
Looking at the rope in the shed
You wonder, maybe you're better off dead
Or do you think you're doomed
Seeing the people around you succeed
But all you do is cry and grieve
Neglected by others, loneliness is your only friend
Sadness is the only thing you feel but until what end
Looking at the rope in the shed
You wonder, maybe you're better off dead

Todays Love
He loved her to the moon and back
She liked him for his looks
His love never lacked
Her ideas of loves didn't come from books
He tried to be her superman
She just couldn't careless
He encouraged her; he was her biggest fan
She thought of him as a mess
He said their love was fate
She said their love was a fling
He thought of her as his soul mate
She thought of him as a one time thing
He cries for her every night
She messes around with others
He doesn't want to fight
She fights more with him then with...

Truth be told
Why are we all so fake
we should be like snowflakes
We shouldn't all be the same
I admit it brings me pain
We all want to be her, him and be part of the "cool kids"
Our true personality is trapped under a lid
We become someone we're not
We brag by showing off what we bought
We spend plenty of money on our looks
Yet forgetting to read books
We are scared to be ourselves
And forgetting the importance of taking a book out of a bookshelf
We hide in our shells
And forget we should all be heard like church bells
We don't know...

Drip Drop
Drip drop
His Tears slid down his cheek
Drip drop
He came to his peek
Drip drop
Her love was non existent
Drip drop
He thought she would be different
Drip drop
He stared at the knife on the counter
Drip drop
He cuts to the number of times he said he loved her
Drip drop
The addictive pain of a knife slashes through his skin
Drip drop
How could this all have been
Drip drop
The blood drips down his wrist
Drip drop
The number of times he risked
Drip drop
Nothing can heal his pain
Drip...
