Myself to blame
Entice me with your chaos,
Seduce me with your pain.
Infect me with your madness,
Put your poison in my veins.
Set my soul on fire,
A passion unrestrained.
But try as you might,
My heart you can not tame.
Just twist my mind into knots,
Until you've driven me insane.
And when there's nothing left,
I'll have just myself to blame.
Seduce me with your pain.
Infect me with your madness,
Put your poison in my veins.
Set my soul on fire,
A passion unrestrained.
But try as you might,
My heart you can not tame.
Just twist my mind into knots,
Until you've driven me insane.
And when there's nothing left,
I'll have just myself to blame.

Mother oh Mother
Mother oh mother, we call for you in the night
Mother oh mother, why won't you fight
Mother oh mother, it just isn't right
Mother oh mother, do you love us or the pipe.
Mother oh mother, you said you'd be there, just another lie
Mother oh mother you can't even see us, eyes always turned to the Skyy
Mother oh mother, so deep in the bottle you won't even try
Mother oh mother, because of you I've no tears left to cry
Because Mother oh mother, instead of raising us you'd rather be high
Mother oh mother, we're afraid and alone
All...
Mother oh mother, why won't you fight
Mother oh mother, it just isn't right
Mother oh mother, do you love us or the pipe.
Mother oh mother, you said you'd be there, just another lie
Mother oh mother you can't even see us, eyes always turned to the Skyy
Mother oh mother, so deep in the bottle you won't even try
Mother oh mother, because of you I've no tears left to cry
Because Mother oh mother, instead of raising us you'd rather be high
Mother oh mother, we're afraid and alone

Still
You've stolen my heart infected my brain,
driven me mad left me insane,
Reached depths of my soul never seen again,
Left me broken and empty never to be the same.
I can no longer tell if it is pleasure or pain that inspires all the beauty I create in your name,
You still are the spark igniting my soul aflame,
But if I can't be close to you then my passion's in vain.
The light in my world faded the color long since drained leaving me with nothing left to lose, but neither anything to gain.
Though I've tried...
driven me mad left me insane,
Reached depths of my soul never seen again,
Left me broken and empty never to be the same.
I can no longer tell if it is pleasure or pain that inspires all the beauty I create in your name,
You still are the spark igniting my soul aflame,
But if I can't be close to you then my passion's in vain.

Codependent
Pardon my indescretion as I stumble through these many lessons, leaving me without answers, just more questions.
I'm trying my damnedest to learn, tryin to put out these fires because my soul still burns, to let go of the guilt I didn't earn, to let go of you, even though my heart still yearns.
I'd tear my heart out to save you, but it's not my place to, letting go is all I can do, but at least I can say my love's true.
At the end of the day no matter how hard I try, I just end up beating myself up inside, angry at all the tears I've cried, angry at all the...

Broken heart
Where do I start.... Again I put the horse behind the cart, hating this thing I call my heart, watch as with ease as it rips apart.
I know that I made mistakes, but if you're patient and wait, I'll demonstrate that I'll do whatever it takes to make our love great.
I know that I'm not perfect, but I promise that my love is worth it.
I just want to give the world to you, the sun, the stars, an the moon too, I'd even place heart in your hand if that's what you wanted me to do, believe me when I say I'd go through heaven an hell for you.
I'm sorry, I...

Title
Tossing and turning, longing and yearning, my heart is burning as these lessons I'm learning, lost in the pain I'm busy earning, alone in thoughts disconcerting, a nightmare reoccuring, but your words reassuring as the lines begin blurring and my sleepy words slurring, can you see what I'm inferring within this careful wording, you and I on a different plane of flirting, you make me smile even when my soul is hurting, making the pain worth enduring,if you say forever I'm concurring, planting the seeds ensuring that tgis love is curing with no after only during.

Another one
looking into the mirror just to stare at me,hoping for a moment of clarity, because I've been living my life errantly, and what I see to a great degree is that inherantly, I am nothing more than a parody verily.
A demonstration of my lamentations, frought from deprivation, emotional castration, a cesation of sensation for the duration of the degredation in this presentation, blood and bone before I reach my destination, my own obliteration, with no hestitation, judged guilty with no deliberation, plunge into the dark with no trepidation, hoping for salvation from my own...

Here I Go Again
Insane, addicted to the game, sweet addiction in my veins, stopping me in my tracks like a bullet to my brain, all control lost with one mention of your name.
One taste of deep waters and I'll never be the same, I must feel your touch, I must feel your pain, this is much more than lust, I'm consumed by your flames, burning up my past, now I'm ready for this change.
I just need your touch to release me from these chains, the taste of your salty flesh to cure my hunger pangs, with your body next to mine I'm ready to take these reigns, two wild hearts dancing in the rain...

Mind f**k
Off to the nether to sever everything between now and never, floating, not knowing whether I can wheather this wheather or if I'll pull it together and tether my soul with these clever letters to now and forever, a dedication to getting better.
All the mistakes I've made, just foundations laid, the dues I've paid. Though painful I would not trade or let the memories fade of all those days that made this man of clay, that come what may will make his way, standing until his final days, knowing full well the danger of the games he plays, against the risk of getting lost in this...

A Love Letter
A love letter to the only one who can really get me off, an ode to her, to revel in my supreme appreciation for the dark enduring gifts she gave me.. "As a man tortured to the brink of madness by my own philisophical compulsions, knowing that the solution lies not just in my own hands, but in the very fear I have that makes me unable to embrace the deliverance I seek.
To the end that my life revolves around the answer to one very simple question. The addiction however, is not in the endorphins, but in the pain itself. The darkness does not cause me dispair, to the contrary, I...

Freedom
What is the purpose of being if humanity is constantly failing at seeing that living and let living is the ultimate key to freeing us from our own oppression?
It’s like we are caught up in our own obsession almost addicted to constant depression of the mind and spirit like even those willing to hear it know we each hold the key to peace and yet they fear it.
What is there to fear though, the possibility that we may grow, not just as a people, but as individual heroes capable of saving ourselves, creating immense moral wealth that would not only save our self but our neighbors. ...
