Dead Inside
Dead beneath my skin, /
emptiness swallows my soul , /
breath life into me.
emptiness swallows my soul , /
breath life into me.

Your Window
You think that I'm asleep, but I watch as you stare out of the window
You're neither here nor there, but there is something that you remember
There is something so deep within you, that it hides in the dark
Not always but sometimes it appears with a flicker and a spark
Was It something that I said or the weather outside of that window
Yes boo, I realize that it could never be that simple
But to watch as you torment yourself locked away in that dark place
To only be able to watch as fear and pain moves across your face
The fear, I can...
You're neither here nor there, but there is something that you remember

But to watch as you torment yourself locked away in that dark place
To only be able to watch as fear and pain moves across your face

Straight Talk (When The Core Of The Mind Refuses To Speak Coherently)
I will attempt to elaborate on the more aggressive theories that seem to marginalize, relevant concerns that has made me ponder and see if I intricate the whys, or at least find the source of its understanding.
I had to revisit the concept of understanding the complexities of the mind due in part.
Mental illness seems to on the uprise, and it is affecting our youth at an alarming rate. Thus far the statistical for adults has not started for the margin.
A slope in the statistical incline, or shift seems to be affecting the Caucasian youth, more...

Soldiers
Tell me, why is there kerosene
in the back of your gaze?
the glimpse we exchanged
in paraffin air
you said you belonged not
and only were here
to pollinate the dark
an abysmal truth lies between us
termites and toxin have never betrayed you
a surviving grenade escaped
lucifer looked away
the day you were born
in all honesty that you will never believe in
because hate knows a heart
swear me your life
know that I will never
leave you
you were always ...
in the back of your gaze?
the glimpse we exchanged
in paraffin air
you said you belonged not
and only were here
to pollinate the dark
an abysmal truth lies between us
termites and toxin have never betrayed you
a surviving grenade escaped
lucifer looked away
the day you were born
in all honesty that you will never believe in
because hate knows a heart
swear me your life
know that I will never
leave you
you were always ...

Forget this life.
I'm sorry I thought I could do this I thought that I had this.. against this against my demons but they seem to be winning ever since you left I can't breathe the world around me is crumbling slowly..the air around me is suffocating me what's left in this world if I don't have you?
Nothing this silence is painful painfully killing me..I watched you take your last breath..what's it for me take my last step..? Step to be with you again. You were my world my everything you taught me how to do everything except fight my demons...and theses demons are nothing like I experienced before....

The deathly hallow
Day by day my lonely heart begins to wallow.
The loss of the future I planned is hard to swallow.
Destined to die, depression is a deathly hallow.
The loss of the future I planned is hard to swallow.
Destined to die, depression is a deathly hallow.

Forever
ill prepared and
fully-weathered;
i can last perhaps
forever.
as this city devours
me whole, no bones
or trail remains in puddles or
rains, as if
i never existed.
the drum-drum in my head
is a full-on nightmare and i
adore it, warm
hold me.
there is no pain as nerves
disconnect and joints rip, rap
less of me to sait its appetite.
i am home.

Dead inside
I may not allow the sector wreck me
So I want to alternate direction
Nothing unique I'm a ways from perfect
Light the manner for me
Feel I turned into strolling an infinite mile,
Last time it burns
And I'm demise inside
All of this may flip to ash
A alternate for a bit of mind
Walking wherein the lifeless ships dwell
These are beaches I left behind
Streets have been getting smaller
And I must leave
Feel I turned into strolling an infinite mile,
Last time it burns
And I'm demise inside
All of this may flip to ash ...
So I want to alternate direction

Walking wherein the lifeless ships dwell
These are beaches I left behind
Streets have been getting smaller
And I must leave
Feel I turned into strolling an infinite mile,

San(Dims)ity
final
gaze
of sanity
now
the light
dims
drifting
from
existence
reality
fading
in and out
fragmented
pieces of
thought
never
quite
complete
glimpzes
a fleck
of knowing
lnside
the
silence
tear
away
the layers
it reveals
nothing
of me
of
anything
i truly tecognise
a mere
grey
shadow
gaze
of sanity
now
the light
dims
drifting
from
existence
reality
fading
in and out
fragmented
pieces of
thought
never
quite
complete
glimpzes

lnside
the

Carry on
I wake my eyes
To a newborn day
Wonder if it'll be the same
As yesterday
Will the rain come
Pouring down
Or will the sun
Peak through the clouds
And ease my pain
Well I don't know
What tomorrow brings
Perhaps I might just
Earn my wings
For Heavens gate
And I'll say...
You are my sunshine
You are my shield
You helped me live
In this world
When I didn't think
I could go on
The shadows got
My mind again
You remind me of a joke
And they go away ...
To a newborn day
Wonder if it'll be the same
As yesterday
Will the rain come
Pouring down
Or will the sun
Peak through the clouds
And ease my pain
Well I don't know
What tomorrow brings
Perhaps I might just
Earn my wings
For Heavens gate
And I'll say...
You are my sunshine
You are my shield
You helped me live
In this world
When I didn't think
I could go on
The shadows got
My mind again
You remind me of a joke
And they go away ...

Slipping Through My Cracks
clawing at
the plastic bag
over my face
in way
over my
depth
watching
the cracks
appear slowly
gain a foot hold
inside
my mind
bouncing
off walls
like a maniac
straighjacket
is the fashion
of the day
lego bricks
tumble
down
like paper houses
hit by a
hurricane
dreams used
to hold back
the tide of reality
now they
just underline
a living nightmare
the plastic bag
over my face
in way
over my
depth
watching
the cracks
appear slowly
gain a foot hold
inside
my mind
bouncing
off walls
like a maniac
straighjacket
is the fashion
of the day
lego bricks
tumble
down
like paper houses
hit by a
hurricane
dreams used
to hold back
the tide of reality
now they
just underline
a living nightmare
