Nothing Left
What an hour to still feel unheard
Not once does anyone hear me
The things I post are depressive and absurd
But I’m still human and I’m still feeling
For now
Not once does anyone hear me
The things I post are depressive and absurd
But I’m still human and I’m still feeling
For now

Grieving
I’ll never grieve for others,
the way I grieve for you.
the way I grieve for you.

Eyes
Your eyes are the window
To your soul........
She looked in the mirror
Saw nothing
Looked even closer
Then she saw the evil marks
She screamed and fainted.
To your soul........
She looked in the mirror
Saw nothing
Looked even closer
Then she saw the evil marks
She screamed and fainted.

AI
Artificial Intelligence.
Many people (including me)
Might very well profit from this
Considering that they have little of it
Or none.

Why
Give and take
Take and give
Lose a soul
Gain a soul
Is this what it takes to live in this wretched world?

Deaf Ears
Suffering inside, /
deaf ears they will never hear, /
screaming from the dark.
deaf ears they will never hear, /
screaming from the dark.

Phantom
This ghost that I am, /
invisible and alone, /
an unloved phantom.
invisible and alone, /
an unloved phantom.

Tides
strong, truth, right
stand up, stand back
don't sit down
lies fly
through the air
sometimes you see em
sometimes you don't
strength from lies
sit together and laugh
strength from lies
build your house on sand
stand up, stand back
don't sit down
lies fly
through the air
sometimes you see em
sometimes you don't
strength from lies
sit together and laugh
strength from lies
build your house on sand

I Think I Might Die Tonight
Driving towards the lights
Wondering who will give my last rights
Choking on the aftermath
Of hotel rooms and diesal fumes
Collide
Where signs of a bloodbath
Once took place
And I was crying
Trying
To save face
Wondering who will give my last rights
Choking on the aftermath
Of hotel rooms and diesal fumes
Collide
Where signs of a bloodbath
Once took place
And I was crying
Trying
To save face

The Fall
My heart is collapsing
in on itself
breaking
from the inside out
all I see
All that remains
Are the dark salty waters of
NEVERMORE
NEVER WAS
Imprisoned in a tear
I fear
You are taking another step
Away
in on itself
breaking
from the inside out
all I see
All that remains
Are the dark salty waters of
NEVERMORE
NEVER WAS
Imprisoned in a tear
I fear
You are taking another step
Away
