I Gave You Too Much
I give you my time
I give you my space
I give you the chance
To see my face
I give you no doubt
I give you support
I give you my loyalty
What is it worth
I give you the key
I give you my heart
I give you my soul
And get torn apart
I gave you too much
I gave you too deep
I gave you everything
Which now I will keep
I give you my space
I give you the chance
To see my face
I give you no doubt
I give you support
I give you my loyalty
What is it worth
I give you the key
I give you my heart
I give you my soul
And get torn apart
I gave you too much
I gave you too deep
I gave you everything
Which now I will keep

I'm a Bad Habit
I am an addiction, not all can break.
I give and I give, so they take, take, take.
Some don't realize what it is they've just done.
I'm an addiction to all, a bad habit to some.
They learn in the long run, you should've just said no.
But then you wouldn't know, just how far you can go.
Whenever I'm there, you tell me you have doubt.
But then you come to realize, I'm someone you can't live without.

Life is Pain
I tell myself I love you, but you convince me otherwise.
It makes me think that all I feel, are just a bunch of lies.
I'd think about you to myself, and put a smile on my face.
But when we talk you treat me as if, I'm just such a disgrace.
I let you abuse me and treat me wrong, I know that it'll get better.
I tell myself to stand by your side, I want us to be together.
But when I do I just get hurt, I want us to commit.
I tell myself that life is pain, learn to enjoy it.

Is This The Path?
My life is falling apart
is what nobody can see.
I keep to myself,
and just let them be.
The ones I love
have pushed me away.
I'm not sure what reasons
there are for me to stay.
Everyone ignores me
with the signs that I give.
What they don't understand
is like this I won't live.
The cries that I give,
nobody wants to hear.
The time they all see it
is the day all will fear.
So I keep to myself
and let everyone else be.
Nobody will ever know
how fucked up this world made me.

The Blink of an Eye
What memories can we have, in a blink of an eye?
Some shall never forget, what it was that got us by.
We remember our times, when we thought we were through.
Then we remember, what it was we had to do.
The good times and bad, some will never forget.
We made the best of what we had, to help us get through it.
Then we have the memories, we have always kept inside.
The ones that make us quiet, are the ones we try to hide.
We then remember, it's just memories my friend.
But memories are the one thing, that will be with you until the end.
Then some will...

What is Happy?
As the clock ticks down, the time has come.
To see what I have done, to all my loved ones.
Another year is gone , that nothing went my way.
After so long, that's just another day.
I'm a mistake to all, even to myself.
Another lovely year, to look at my life's hell.
As the clock ticks down, I've shed my last tear.
Something to look back on, another fucked up year.

Don't Wait
Alone and quiet, dark and cold.
Empty and hollow, lonely and old.
You feel as if the road never ends.
Once it does, I smile again.
I live in misery, every day and night.
I try to forget, but it’s vivid and bright.
What can be done, to make this go away?
If not, we live in shame, every single day.
When my eyes close, I see it all again.
This will follow me, until the end.
To know what I lost, because of my choice.
The things that I miss, the sounds and the voice.
Now that it started falling apart.
I quit even trying, I know...

The End Is Near
I feel as if the end has begun.
There’s no time left to care.
Because what I want has never come.
I have nothing left to share.
What I thought was love,
Has turned into hate.
The feelings I had.
Will all disintegrate.
I have waited for
Someone to find me.
That never happened
There’s no one besides me.
What I have been through
Nobody can see.
They tell me, I’ll get through it.
It’s not that easy.
This is one that
Will haunt me until death
So I quit trying to forget
Because...

Go Away
Some won’t believe, the things I’ve done.
I hate life, the killing has just begun.
Don’t stand in my way, or you’ll be next.
Everybody has put, my mind to the test.
I’ve reached the point, and now I will break.
My world is full, of anger, hurt and hate.
My mind is full of rage, is what nobody can see.
The thoughts in my mind, just cause the agony.
What can be done, to make it all go away?
Just live in more misery, each and every day.

Losing It All
I’m losing everything, my life is falling apart.
I’ve lost my love, my family, and now I’ve lost my heart.
Now I have, no reason to stay.
They were my life, which now faded away.
I have no chance, to live through it all.
Some say it will get better, but my hopes are small.
I’ve lost my morals and my dignity, so true.
So just let me go, I know that I failed you.
Don’t hate me, because my decisions were wrong.
I regret everything, which I have felt for so long.
I keep it all inside me, so nobody has to see.
What all the fucked...

Things I Miss
I miss her smile, I miss her touch.
I miss the sound of her voice, so much.
The way we could talk, the smile on her face.
The times we were together, the love we used to make.
Her body next to me, in bed at night.
We would lay there together, and I would hold her tight.
She could always touch me, in ways nobody knew.
I would stare into her eyes, that beautiful, sparkling blue.
I loved the way she smelled, each and every day.
She taught me what love is, then took it away.
