sex slave
locked away in this dungeon dark and cold
hearing the cries of strangers being bought and sold
i close my eyes and try to think how i got to this terrifying place
he pulled up in his red mustang with a smile on his face
"come with me" he said "i promise to be quick"
i didn't really have a choice, i was starting to get sick
riding down main street in the black of night
all of a sudden i'm hit. i had no chance to fight
now i find myself in this dungeon underground
all i see are missing girls as i look around
scared and alone locked...

blur
running along like a ghost in town
alone here, no one to be found
all of a sudden a knock would appear
you were the one who led them here
i watch fearfully as they open the door
tears fill my eyes as i hit the floor
i search the room for a way to leave
but there's no way out so i beg and plead
it's not my time, i'm not ready to go
but my life was a blur so what do i know
alone here, no one to be found
all of a sudden a knock would appear
you were the one who led them here
i watch fearfully as they open the door
tears fill my eyes as i hit the floor
i search the room for a way to leave
but there's no way out so i beg and plead
it's not my time, i'm not ready to go
but my life was a blur so what do i know

my demise
My hands tremble and i begin to sweat
it's my very existence I've come to regret
as the sharp blade pierces my skin
i think of my life over again...
Born into a family with no love to share
feeling like no one ever really cared
growing up i would do anything for love
but in the end i only found drugs
a drug addict at the age of eighteen
my life wasn't nearly as good as it seemed
alone in my home leaving the world behind
i would do anything to alter my mind
take me to a world all my own
where what i was doing wasn't known
i would get...

intervention
sitting in a room full of family and friends
just counting the minutes till this intervention ends
secret anxiety awaiting the time
i can get some drugs to numb my mind
they tell me they love me and i watch them cry
but all i can think is "i need to get high"
first my mother, then sister and brother, now friend
but all i want is to use again
as i hear them talk my hands start to shake
now i just need is a cigarette break
stuck in this room as day turns to night
they keep telling me to do this right

THE SWEET RELIEF OF DEATH
a single tear rolls down my face
as i watch everything i have go away
my children, my husband, my life
i have nothing left in this place
a drop of blood hits the floor
as i try to imagine my life before
my children laughs, a smile on their face
i realize how much i will miss that place
the ground turns red as i watch myself bleed
it happened as fast as i lost everything i need
i feel a weight lift as i take my last breath
and i thank god for the sweet relief of death.
as i watch everything i have go away
my children, my husband, my life
i have nothing left in this place
a drop of blood hits the floor
as i try to imagine my life before
my children laughs, a smile on their face
i realize how much i will miss that place
the ground turns red as i watch myself bleed
it happened as fast as i lost everything i need
i feel a weight lift as i take my last breath
and i thank god for the sweet relief of death.

what i deserve
black skies and lightening all around me
like a sign that fate had finally found me
nothing in sight but memories left abandoned
and the ground caved in right where i was standing
AND HIS VOICE WAS ALL I HEARD THAT I'LL GET WHAT I DESERVE
in every loss, in every lie
in every truth that i deny
and each regret, and each goodbye
was a mistake too great to hide
AND HIS VOICE WAS ALL I HEARD THAT I'LL GET WHAT I DESERVE
like a sign that fate had finally found me
nothing in sight but memories left abandoned
and the ground caved in right where i was standing
AND HIS VOICE WAS ALL I HEARD THAT I'LL GET WHAT I DESERVE
in every loss, in every lie

and each regret, and each goodbye

it hurts so bad
i found out my husband cheated on me
i thought i was being the woman he wanted me to be
anything and everything he wanted me to do
i did in a heartbeat and have always been true
i'm not a cheater he would say
but maybe that was part of his game
i wish i didn't know, it has broken my heart
i love him so much, now i'm falling apart
i never expected that from him
i thought he was different from other men
he tells me i love him more than he loves me
what the hell is that supposed to mean
maybe if i loved him less
my...

dont know what to title this
in jail i was stuck
and nobody gave a fuck
been trying to do good
then got set up
now they want me to rat
but i aint doing that
what should i do
i am just trying to get through
i am not a bad person
i have made mistakes
but what will it take
to make it go away
i am over this life
i can't do anything right
i have nothing left to give
and have completely lost the will to live
maybe my prayers
he will finally hear
and take away all my tears
maybe when i go to sleep
it will be my last breath...

?
they told me it was good it will set you free
it will make you feel like you were meant to be
they told me it was time for the thrill of my life
something that is hard to find
they told me i would love it till the very end
that it would become my best friend
they told me that when we meet
i would finally feel complete
they told me if i would just give it a chance
i would love that dance
they told me i would love it all
that it would bring me high and i would never fall
but.....

asshole
When you look into my eyes what do you see?
Do you see everything that is wrong with me?
Do you see the pain i live everyday?
Do you see the game for which i can't get away?
Do you see the tears i cry every single night?
Do you see the fear i have that i will never win this fight?
When you look into my eyes what do you see?
Do you see that i'm imprisoned here and will never be free?
Do you see that i have lost all control?
Do you see the demons that torture my soal?
Do you see lost dreams that will never be complete?
Do you see good people that...

who am i?
it seems this life of mine is not a fit
should i stay or should i quit?
what will be left for me to do?
who will i be then, who?
will i be a junkie shooting drugs into my vein?
trying everything just to mask the pain.
or will i be sober and clean
living the life i have always dreamed?
but if i couldn't get away
how many loved ones will i betray?
if i did what will i find?
or will i just get left behind?
will i always be alone?
always searching for a home?
will i ever move on?
or will i suffer until...

maybe
I've been thinking of everything i have seen
it's like my life has been one big dream
sometimes i pretend like it wasn't real
maybe i just need time to heal
I've thought of all the sadness i have brought
all the horrible things i did trying not to be caught
for so long my demons have been trying to feed
all along making my heart bleed
everyday i was chasing that pill
always looking for a thrill
what has my life become
what have i been running from
i want to go back to where i was before
when life everyday...
