Dear God
Lost in shadows all my life,
But longing for the light.
I closed my heart,
Locked it with fury,
And poisoned my blood with spite.
No longer could I feel the pain.
No longer could I feel anything.
But rage,
Consuming everything.
And everything stayed the same.
You let myself tear me down,
To the bottom of it all.
So I could open up my eyes,
My heart,
I understand now, I had to fall.
I thought I knew all about You,
I thought I knew I knew!
So lost,
Had I'd known anything?
I feel I've been made anew.
...
But longing for the light.
I closed my heart,
Locked it with fury,
And poisoned my blood with spite.
No longer could I feel the pain.
No longer could I feel anything.
But rage,
Consuming everything.
And everything stayed the same.
You let myself tear me down,
To the bottom of it all.
So I could open up my eyes,
My heart,
I understand now, I had to fall.
I thought I knew all about You,
I thought I knew I knew!
So lost,
Had I'd known anything?
I feel I've been made anew.

Citalopram
Little pill of white,
Will you ease my mind tonight?
You've tucked me in for years and years,
You've tried with all your might-
To take away my pain,
To keep me slightly sane,
You've tried so hard, my little pill!
But I fear you've tried in vain.
But I can’t live without you by my side,
I’m too afraid to even try.
So, I’ll suffer through your horrid flavor,
For sleep that was once denied.
Oh, I may sleep tonight,
My little pill of white,
But you won’t help me get up tomorrow.
You just can’t win this fight.
Will you ease my mind tonight?
You've tucked me in for years and years,
You've tried with all your might-
To take away my pain,
To keep me slightly sane,
You've tried so hard, my little pill!
But I fear you've tried in vain.
But I can’t live without you by my side,
I’m too afraid to even try.
So, I’ll suffer through your horrid flavor,
For sleep that was once denied.
Oh, I may sleep tonight,
My little pill of white,
But you won’t help me get up tomorrow.
You just can’t win this fight.

Omnipotent
I know what happened
Though you won't listen to me
It was a misunderstanding
But you won't let yourself see
I won't apologize
When I've done nothing wrong
Why isn't this strange
When we've been friends for so long?
Maybe I saw it coming
Just like before
With that "friend" before you
That walked out the door
You keep to your silence
I'll respect this wish
I've spent enough of my time making you happy
What's different with this?
If you are willing to listen
I'll still be right here
But if you walk away
I have...
Though you won't listen to me
It was a misunderstanding
But you won't let yourself see
I won't apologize
When I've done nothing wrong

When we've been friends for so long?
Maybe I saw it coming
Just like before
With that "friend" before you
That walked out the door
You keep to your silence

This Fear of Mine
I have this fear
As you are aware
You know I worry
But what you don't know
About my fear
Are all the things I keep buried
I cannot put it in words
Oh no!
I can't bring myself to say-
I feel it would curse
My hearts start pounding
The fear night and day
I can't tell you
About this fear of mine
I can't even bring myself to write it
I'm paralyzed with fear
Literally, Physically
Immobilized by it
I have this fear
As you are aware
And I know that you care
I want to explain it...
As you are aware
You know I worry
But what you don't know
About my fear
Are all the things I keep buried
I cannot put it in words
Oh no!

My hearts start pounding
The fear night and day
I can't tell you

I can't even bring myself to write it
I'm paralyzed with fear
Literally, Physically

Again Again Again
I'm crying again.
Why? Why? Why?
I told myself I didn't care.
I'm hating again.
Die! Die! Die!
Why am I so awful?
You said it again.
Sigh. Sigh. Sigh.
I'm believing your words about me.
I'm tired again.
Cry. Cry. Cry.
Until reality fades away.
I'm dying again.
Lie. Lie. Lie.
I'm going to tell you I'm fine.
Why? Why? Why?
I told myself I didn't care.
I'm hating again.
Die! Die! Die!
Why am I so awful?
You said it again.
Sigh. Sigh. Sigh.

I'm tired again.
Cry. Cry. Cry.
Until reality fades away.

What Words?
I don't know what to tell you anymore
You're never going to heal 'til you lock that door
Stop letting people in that you know are going to
Tear you apart.
I try to tell you that it'll all be okay.
I try to give you reasons you should walk away
But you keep filling yourself with doubt
And I don't know what else to say.
I wish I could make you see
From the outside in.
I wish I could let you see how you look when you're talking with him.
Everyday you're letting them take you apart
Everyday you're hiding all the hurt
Everyday your...
You're never going to heal 'til you lock that door
Stop letting people in that you know are going to
Tear you apart.

I'm Sick
I'm sick, so sick
And I'm afraid there's no cure
I'm sick, so sick
A disease that's never been heard
I'm sick, so sick
I just feel like crying
I'm sick, so sick
I can feel myself dying
I'm sick, so sick
But you won't see a mark
Because I'm sick, so sick
I'm sick in the Heart.
And I'm afraid there's no cure
I'm sick, so sick
A disease that's never been heard
I'm sick, so sick
I just feel like crying
I'm sick, so sick
I can feel myself dying
I'm sick, so sick
But you won't see a mark
Because I'm sick, so sick
I'm sick in the Heart.

Seventeen
I've cried for the first time in a while.
I’m taking greater steps down the mile-
But I’m going nowhere.
Is this the beginning of the strife?
This is the beginning of my life-
And the End.
I don’t know what the hell I’m doing.
They expect me to keep on moving-
But I’m still just a child.
I wanna travel back in time.
Back to when times were kind.
I want back the innocence.
But I got to keep moving down this path,
Into a world that I’ve dreaded, hated in my past.
I’ve got to grow up sometime.
And that terrifies me.
I’m taking greater steps down the mile-
But I’m going nowhere.
Is this the beginning of the strife?
This is the beginning of my life-
And the End.
I don’t know what the hell I’m doing.
They expect me to keep on moving-
But I’m still just a child.
I wanna travel back in time.
Back to when times were kind.
I want back the innocence.
But I got to keep moving down this path,
Into a world that I’ve dreaded, hated in my past.
I’ve got to grow up sometime.
And that terrifies me.

Antagonist
I'm aware of what you've been through-
The dreaded pain of loss.
I know you're hurt and bleeding,
But so many lines have been crossed.
What gives you the right-
To put down and tear away?
To make them fear, to make them cry,
And cause them pain each and every day?
I'm aware of what you've seen-
Half your life fading away.
But that doesn't give you the right-
To say all those things you say.
To pin them up against the wall-
To judge them in every way.
You've worn the mask so well,
That your heart has fused it in place.
And I can...
The dreaded pain of loss.
I know you're hurt and bleeding,
But so many lines have been crossed.
What gives you the right-
To put down and tear away?
To make them fear, to make them cry,
And cause them pain each and every day?
I'm aware of what you've seen-
Half your life fading away.
But that doesn't give you the right-
To say all those things you say.
To pin them up against the wall-
To judge them in every way.
You've worn the mask so well,
That your heart has fused it in place.

Blind
Close their eyes so they may see
Inflict the pain, Let them scream
Kill the Lies, Banish the sin
Freeze their hearts, Burn their skin
Make them cry until they laugh
Show a smile, set the trap
Strip them from their world of Gray
Make them high, Make them Pray
Cause their Death to make them live
Reveal the Truths, let them writhe
Make them feel, so they may see
The Blinded fools! Teach them to Be.
Inflict the pain, Let them scream
Kill the Lies, Banish the sin
Freeze their hearts, Burn their skin
Make them cry until they laugh
Show a smile, set the trap
Strip them from their world of Gray
Make them high, Make them Pray
Cause their Death to make them live
Reveal the Truths, let them writhe
Make them feel, so they may see
The Blinded fools! Teach them to Be.

Upon Once
What once was lost is now begotten
I'd take it back, but it's forgotten
And now all they tell is silly fables
So death by linch and damn human labels
I have to stick to Mother's morals
'cause all I've heard from you is
Lies!
So go fill you hearts with cold blood
and jagged pebbles
And laugh as loud as you are high
I'd take it back, but it's forgotten
And now all they tell is silly fables
So death by linch and damn human labels
I have to stick to Mother's morals
'cause all I've heard from you is
Lies!
So go fill you hearts with cold blood
and jagged pebbles
And laugh as loud as you are high

Lie, Lie, Lie!
It was just so long ago,
In such a short a while,
Innocence or ignorance?
Before being set on trial.
The real world's is only but a test.
The jury sits on edge.
You're heart is pounding in you chest.
Can you remember what you said?
The judgement began,
The moment you walked in.
Dripping blood from head to toe,
You realise what you did.
But the rules had changed just a moment before,
You could live or die,
And you loose that blessed Innocence,
The moment that you Lie.
So, go ahead and save yourself,
Breathe...
