The unbearable softness of lightning
the caress of shattering light
fear, desire, and beauty
breathing fire
and brittle air
the metal taste of ozone
I sensed what was coming
a primal fear
an omen of doom
of a spirit tightly coiled
eyes peering from the storm
to turn back anger
burn down the words
the cuts too deep
our eyes full of clouds
fire from our hearts
seeking each other's throats
reveling in the ruins
that I can hold once more
the unbearable softness of lightning
fear, desire, and beauty
breathing fire
and brittle air
the metal taste of ozone
I sensed what was coming
a primal fear
an omen of doom
of a spirit tightly coiled
eyes peering from the storm
to turn back anger
burn down the words
the cuts too deep
our eyes full of clouds
fire from our hearts
seeking each other's throats
reveling in the ruins
that I can hold once more
the unbearable softness of lightning

ricochet
You tell me I live for the misery
I'm so addicted to suffering
I don't want to taste happiness
on my tongue
and revel in the glory of it
I faced my demons
reached for the safety
of your hand
but you told me
I need to walk alone
I faced my demons
and my demons won
In the aftermath
you gift me empty words
tell me my happiness
is your top priority
like I was the only one
standing between me
and the things I asked for
So I let these lies ricochet
carbon...
I'm so addicted to suffering

Infected
You always make me feel like I’m dead inside.
You try to stab me with your dirty needles
and cover my scars to watch them heal with time.
Add some poison to my blood and shake well.
Leave me with painful splinters stuck in my mind.
I can’t erase the haunting memories of hell
-Cause you’re an infection
to all those around you
you cause a corruption
to start spreading from you- (Chorus)
You often make me feel like I’m sick all over,
stuffing all of your hate, love, and fear inside of me.
It is a deadly illness like no...
You try to stab me with your dirty needles
and cover my scars to watch them heal with time.
Add some poison to my blood and shake well.
Leave me with painful splinters stuck in my mind.
I can’t erase the haunting memories of hell
-Cause you’re an infection
to all those around you
you cause a corruption
to start spreading from you- (Chorus)
You often make me feel like I’m sick all over,
stuffing all of your hate, love, and fear inside of me.

Never let me breathe
My mind is lost
I'm out of place
dont know the cost
I have to face
I've seen it all
there's not much to see
I tend to fall
when you look down on me
I cant sit around here anymore
cause you wont listen to me
I wont stand around here anymore
cause you never let me breathe
(Chorus)
I come down here
just to watch you crawl
I make your fear
stronger than you are
One day you'll realize
just how far you can get
without me in your life
saying how far you will get
...
I'm out of place

resting bitch face values
You walk in
disturb me from whatever I'm doing
to ask me why I'm wearing
my "depressed face" again
like I swapped a smile and lazy bed hair
for some emo eye make up
and a hair sprayed birds nest
No matter how many times
I tell you it's my "thinking face"
or "creative processing face"
or you know, just my actual
fucking usual face
when it's existing
in it's natural state
all you see is black skies
and storm clouds
streaked with lighting
and brimming with...

With Each Day
I wonder
as I sit up late
only got a couple hours sleep
and I have work in the morning
maybe this week has just been rough
the last thing I needed
was some self righteous prick
talking to me about how great they are
yet, when it's time to prove it
it's almost laughable how badly you fail
but it goes right over your head
standing there so proud of yourself
looking at me for some kind of approval
and maybe I should just force a grin
would of been easier
if I didn't deal with this shit
time and time again ...

Living in denial
Your words say everything I need to hear
A cutting remark disguised with a hug
Is almost too much to bare
There used to be love
Where contempt now resides
I try my best but nothing I do is right
Where do we go from here
We're both in lost worlds
With no escape route clear
A slap in the face stings for awhile
But living in misery
Is just life wasted, living in denial
A cutting remark disguised with a hug
Is almost too much to bare
There used to be love
Where contempt now resides
I try my best but nothing I do is right
Where do we go from here
We're both in lost worlds
With no escape route clear
A slap in the face stings for awhile
But living in misery
Is just life wasted, living in denial

for a little slander
for a little slander
The new president of America has told Europe to look after its own defense which means NATO without the USA’s help becomes a boy’s club for retired politicians pretending, they are a fighting force eager to defend Ukraine which can’t be done without dragging without risking a serious world war, they hands are tied since Ukraine s not in NATO, an easy excuse because we know it is not true, but it has not stopped leaders in Europe to hammer their support of Ukraine to get at the Russians although knowing the war could have been avoided but for idiotic policies ...

Siren Song
There's a dark eyed girl on her way
She's going to steal your soul
Before the sun's on the rise
Better get back home if you know what's best
Her voice is the siren song
And she's got your ear
Got your a- ten-tion
She's going to pull your life onto the rocky shoals
She's going to leave you lost and broken
Her charms are more than you can bear
She'll chew you up and spit you out
She'll tear you down
She just don't care
There's a dark eyed girl rolling into town
And she's got mayhem on her mind
She doesn't care about...
She's going to steal your soul
Before the sun's on the rise
Better get back home if you know what's best
Her voice is the siren song
And she's got your ear
Got your a- ten-tion
She's going to pull your life onto the rocky shoals
She's going to leave you lost and broken
Her charms are more than you can bear
She'll chew you up and spit you out
She'll tear you down
She just don't care
There's a dark eyed girl rolling into town
And she's got mayhem on her mind
She doesn't care about...

The Brunt
Funny, how I am always to blame
for an unexpected disturbance
- a ripple in the routine
Whatever it might be
you come at me
and every single time
it sinks me
I've reasoned that whatever I do
or have done,
you will find a way
to punish me
You haven't been in my life
in many years,
but you still expect something from me
you are the chaos that robs the calm
If we didn't have a child,
I'd be long gone
but here I am
trapped in this limbo
having to endure
an attack almost...

Distorted Love
I'll only fuck you if you become my slut
we'll get married if you get knocked up
if not, I see your friends
and they’re nasty freaks
high school sweethearts
never meant a thing to me
get you lushed to gain your trust
but please shut up
because I don’t want to hear it
just want that body, be young and party
don’t want to stay, don’t need to care
I don’t need this thing called love
don’t want to fight, just want to fuck
and forget about love, distorted love
laying balls deep in that butt
like...

Broken
I was more innocent than I ever knew,
Dreaming of picket fences, a life steady and true.
You were supposed to be my anchor, my safe place,
But the tides of life have washed away that space.
Growing up in chaos, I fought just to survive,
Learning to love, yet always deceived.
You seemed so stable, with your family intact;
I longed to be like that, but you turned your back.
Your loud rants, dreadful words, and hurtful hands
Ripped apart the glue that barely held my strands.
I didn’t know how to love, completely broken,...

Learning to love, yet always deceived.

Ripped apart the glue that barely held my strands.
