Mixed Up f**ked Up
Bright colors
That's the first thing that comes.
They're beautiful
And hypnotic
And their textures are wild.
You can't even begin to describe them.
Then they change so slightly
The colors turn into shapes.
They're odd
And swirly
You don't think you've seen ones like these before.
You don't even care that you can't feel your arms.
Or your legs
Like some madman came and chopped them off.
You start to wonder if you even have them anymore.
But now its like you're in an outside world
You start to wonder vaguely what...
That's the first thing that comes.
They're beautiful
And hypnotic
And their textures are wild.
You can't even begin to describe them.

What's a little rain on your parade?
Life's too short to even care at all
What's a little rain on your parade?
We all lose our minds
But we find so much more in the end
Love and joy
Happiness and friendship
People to love and care for you
So what's a little rain on your parade?
What's a little rain on your parade?
Life changes but it goes on
Don't be concerned with daily troubles
You can adjust and have fun
It might be hard but remember
You can fight it out talk it out cry it out
What's a little rain on your parade?
When you're free to dance your...

Life changes but it goes on

Fighter and Pariah
You're a fighter
Your body at its peak
The only thing you are to anyone
Is a fighting machine
You've counted how long it takes to kill a human
A traveler
A wanderer
A vagabond
But most importantly
A fighter
You love the sight
The smell of the death that follows you
The bodies that pile around you
You admit there's nothing that makes you happier
You're a pariah
An outcast among your people
The black sheep among your flock
You seem to find yourself in dangerous places
The victim of...
Your body at its peak
The only thing you are to anyone
Is a fighting machine
You've counted how long it takes to kill a human
A traveler
A wanderer
A vagabond
But most importantly
A fighter
You love the sight
The smell of the death that follows you
The bodies that pile around you
You admit there's nothing that makes you happier
You're a pariah

The black sheep among your flock
You seem to find yourself in dangerous places

Depression
It's a sad sight
When the most important person
Has lost their hope
And they feel nothing
You want to sympathize
Say that you hope they feel better
Wish them happy thoughts
And sincerely mean it
But you've been trapped in that pit
You've been trapped inside for years
Worthlessness coupled with hopelessness
You fear you'll never get out alive
Two lovers trapped in depression
One tells others to an extent
The other wallows wishing to be set free
Neither really knowing what to do
What will happen when one gives...
When the most important person

Worthlessness coupled with hopelessness
You fear you'll never get out alive

Screw the World Over
Hate is a strong word
But it's not one I'd use to describe you
Love is an even stronger word
And it's all I think about when I see you
But that's a lie,
Because images accompany every thought about you
Things I can't describe
Things I try not to think about in church
You're everything I've ever wanted
But I still can't have you yet
Not until we leave this place
Not until we're free
Life couldn't be harder
But it's what makes us stronger
We don't want to wait
But you insist
And I'll follow you,
Whatever...

The Best and the Worst
What is this crap?
Why am I doing it?
It courses through my veins
Leaving me with nothing
And leaving me with everything
It's sweet
It's terrible
I love it though,
I feel it kill me
Silent death
This pleasure brings
Swirls of light and color
This drug brings
Can't even remember the name
Gotta have more
Can't get enough
They say love is a drug
I've tried it
They lied
The best drug is that one drug without a name
The one you have
And you just...
Why am I doing it?
It courses through my veins
Leaving me with nothing
And leaving me with everything
It's sweet
It's terrible
I love it though,
I feel it kill me
Silent death
This pleasure brings
Swirls of light and color
This drug brings
Can't even remember the name
Gotta have more
Can't get enough

Escape
Arms enfolded in loving embrace,
Secrets kept quiet from knowing eyes
When the clock stikes twelve,
All will be revealed
Love be lost,
Love be gained,
Secrets burn the heart;
Betrayl burns the soul
Still he doesn't know,
Still your lies decieve
He runs to your lies,
You run from his love
Secrets kept quiet from knowing eyes
When the clock stikes twelve,
All will be revealed
Love be lost,
Love be gained,
Secrets burn the heart;
Betrayl burns the soul
Still he doesn't know,
Still your lies decieve
He runs to your lies,
You run from his love

Hallucinogen
Sitting in the dark of the room
The skeletons in my closet creeping closer
Can't get them to stop
So I join them
Dancing in the graveyard at midnight
I play with their skulls
Toss their bones
Till I walk away from the party
Soon I'm with Dad
Amazing he looks so good for a dead body
Thought he was ash
Dancing in my nightgown
I run to and fro
Until finally I open my eyes
And I'm in the drug store
The skeletons in my closet creeping closer
Can't get them to stop
So I join them
Dancing in the graveyard at midnight
I play with their skulls
Toss their bones
Till I walk away from the party
Soon I'm with Dad
Amazing he looks so good for a dead body
Thought he was ash
Dancing in my nightgown
I run to and fro
Until finally I open my eyes
And I'm in the drug store

Hide Myself
Good God,
Why'd life come to this?
My little happy world,
Ripped away from all its bliss
Poor M,
Though I won't name any names
It seems her life sucks like mine,
Our hope and love going down in flames
I don't know about her,
But I like the heat
She just likes the cold,
Makes me feel incomplete
And C,
God she's so fucking fun
But I feel like she's losing it silently,
Seems like she's about to be done
And that girl I told you about before,
Though I don't know her real name
She's just so loose,
But I...

Frustrated
God I'm so frustrated,
Anyone else pissed?
Maybe my life is just stupid,
Can't believe how bad we've been dissed
I feel sorry for my friend,
I don't know her really
She's so nice,
We always talk so freely
But people hurt her so bad,
I feel like hurting them in turn
Fuck those who insult us,
I'll make sure they burn
And at school,
I can't believe how different it is from home
Everyone is all goody goody,
Their superficiality about as translucent as chrome
My friends from home,
We don't talk much now
I...

Dearly Departed
I write this note in fine red pen,
Hoping to reach a pleasant end
I know you're dead,
But still I bear
I write this small note letter spare
We had our laughs,
We had our sighs
Your mother sang great lullabies
But still I ask,
Why must you leave?
You jumped right off the roof's short eave
And to our children,
I must contend
Your father met a happy end
It was unpleasant,
That is sure,
His body made a grand endure
Though it is to say,
To this very day
That you died with a grateful heart
It is a...

Maybe I should Break
I look at the mirror they put on my wall,
See the six reflections plastered on it like cement
One face, two face, three face, four
They all stare back, grinning and frowning
Different emotions flash,
Never stopping
I think of all the things I've ever said,
All the things I've ever thought
God must frown upon observing me,
The sins I've done lying upon my head
Cast me to hell I say,
It wouldn't matter
Maybe the people who are close,
Could be the people who protect the small girl within
Always hurting,
Always dying
...
