perilous ....  * A must read *

on the surface of your skin something is withering away
the spot lights on you and theres no place to hide
and in your mind theres no escape from the harm a simple word can do
you know its true ..how the tears can start to fall on the ground around you
the fear and loathing can not erase it once it starts to grow and multiply on itself
under valued....
sometimes i think its funny how the world will cut you down at the knees
so cold .. like im tied down to the tracks ..
the train is coming and i can't get out of the way before.......................
trapped... shivering .... alone
in a world that will only throw a pretty face a bone and piss on the ruins of the common individual
no mercy for the weak its hard to speak with lifes hands around your throat 
theres no hope left in your eyes... you know its bearing down on us all ?
to match the faces of all the starlets there on the screen 
individuals replaced with clones just shuffled in the mind.. of what they expect you to be or own 
in place of you is something rotten and fake ... deformed and plain
a victum of the limelight pure inocence they've stolen it ... complacent
this game of lies and pain is so hurtfull 
it magnifies the little things 
and amplifies insecurities cuz in my eyes thats whats truely captivating
how do you console what is fully calloused and hate filled 
 so elogent how we sometimes despise our own reflections
expressionless and guilty cant be whole without some type of calming
to at least begin to rebuild the cracked foundation of our souls
to rekendel the fire dying out ..... the glimmer in your eyes ... devine shadows
perilous endevers waging internal wars a poison in our viens
that blurrs the lines and alters focus
distracted by the desire to be excepted for what we truely are
vonerable and imperfect .....damaged and broken .... flawed and beautifull
