Broken Record
Sometimes the story doesn't end like a fairytale,
I guess that's how it really goes when you stick on a merry-go-round.
The melody of us is now a haunting sound.
Tell me, baby, how do I make it stop,
When the world spins like a broken record,
Your voice is the needle scratching my heart raw.
I had it all but I lost it loving you,
Wish I had known before I fell.
The fall was bad, but unrequited love hurts like hell.
All these thoughts play around in my head,
Like a broken record telling me what to feel.
If I could escape,...
I guess that's how it really goes when you stick on a merry-go-round.
The melody of us is now a haunting sound.
Tell me, baby, how do I make it stop,
When the world spins like a broken record,
Your voice is the needle scratching my heart raw.
I had it all but I lost it loving you,
Wish I had known before I fell.
The fall was bad, but unrequited love hurts like hell.
All these thoughts play around in my head,
Like a broken record telling me what to feel.
If I could escape,...

Walking Corpse
If only these burning tears
could leave copper trails down my cheeks.
If only what made my eyes bleed
stayed carved across my body.
If only the consuming past
remained reflected in my iris.
If only my heart stopped beating casually,
though my soul, long ago, had died.
Becoming this walking corpse,
breathing life out in a slow demise.
Will you then see how your arrow shattered me,
broken beneath the surface?
could leave copper trails down my cheeks.
If only what made my eyes bleed
stayed carved across my body.
If only the consuming past
remained reflected in my iris.
If only my heart stopped beating casually,
though my soul, long ago, had died.
Becoming this walking corpse,
breathing life out in a slow demise.
Will you then see how your arrow shattered me,
broken beneath the surface?

I can feel it
I can feel it...
the sun on my face
the breeze in my hair
the joy in my gut
the spring in my strut
I can feel it...
the dark in my veins
the shame in my soul
the wrong in my right
the cry in the night
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to feel it all
I want to shut my eyes
Let the cloak of numbness fall
To feel the love
is to know the hurt
.
the sun on my face
the breeze in my hair
the joy in my gut
the spring in my strut
I can feel it...
the dark in my veins
the shame in my soul
the wrong in my right
the cry in the night
I don't know how to stop
I don't know how to feel it all
I want to shut my eyes
Let the cloak of numbness fall
To feel the love
is to know the hurt
.

Persona
My persona keeps me safe
I hide behind it to keep them safe
The demons lurking below just out of reach
My persona is joyful and social
But in reality I’m scared and out of reach
I don’t let anyone see the pain hurt and shame
My persona it has some cracks
The darkness seeping through showing the shame
I try to cover them up hoping no one will see
My persona keeps me safe
Not letting anyone hurt me like before
I try and ignore the voices put them in there place
My persona will one day fail ...
I hide behind it to keep them safe
The demons lurking below just out of reach
My persona is joyful and social
But in reality I’m scared and out of reach
I don’t let anyone see the pain hurt and shame
My persona it has some cracks
The darkness seeping through showing the shame
I try to cover them up hoping no one will see
My persona keeps me safe
Not letting anyone hurt me like before
I try and ignore the voices put them in there place
My persona will one day fail ...

Current of apologize.
"I'm sorry"
falls from your lips like a waterfall,
crashing over me and filling up my lungs.
So many things rushing through me all at once.
I can't breathe.
I can't speak.
This anger makes me feel weak.
You make promises that you just can't keep.
I feel alone because you only give the bare minimum to me.
Helpless as pieces of my heart break away like rocks.
I've been loving you,
but at what cost?
falls from your lips like a waterfall,
crashing over me and filling up my lungs.
So many things rushing through me all at once.
I can't breathe.
I can't speak.
This anger makes me feel weak.
You make promises that you just can't keep.
I feel alone because you only give the bare minimum to me.
Helpless as pieces of my heart break away like rocks.
I've been loving you,
but at what cost?

Redemption (Open Verse)
Intro:
You know,
I once heard this quote
And this quote said
“No matter how hard your heart is broken, the world doesn’t stop for your grief”
So no matter how fractured you are, you can’t stop going
The world doesn’t stop, so we continue to move with it
So, let me take a moment to get this off of my chest
Verse:
The thought constantly haunts my mind
Of how you up and left me during the darkest of times
I thought when we agreed, I had your back, you had mine
I put my heart on the line, just to get stabbed in the spine
...

The Wounds of Love
I can't recall what’s real, or if I dream,
A scream resounds within, though silence seems
To choke my voice, to halt my every plea,
This hollow stillness smothers what’s left of me.
Love has left me battered, torn, and blind,
Awaking to a world I cannot find,
A shattered self with nothing left to hold,
Pain’s cruel embrace is all that’s uncontrolled.
I hold my breath and wish for endless sleep,
Oh, God, deliver me, my soul to keep.
Back in the dark, I feel too much to bear,
A pulse, a life, but none to grant me care, ...
A scream resounds within, though silence seems
To choke my voice, to halt my every plea,
This hollow stillness smothers what’s left of me.
Love has left me battered, torn, and blind,
Awaking to a world I cannot find,
A shattered self with nothing left to hold,
Pain’s cruel embrace is all that’s uncontrolled.
I hold my breath and wish for endless sleep,
Oh, God, deliver me, my soul to keep.
Back in the dark, I feel too much to bear,
A pulse, a life, but none to grant me care, ...

Faded Away
You were my rose,
The beautiful flower that grew in the dark,
All I knew, all I loved,
A light in my emptiness,
A balm for your void.
It felt like a dream,
Building bridges from pain,
Walking through rain,
Dancing in storms,
Bound together,
Broken yet whole.
Each day with you was sunlight spilling through the window,
Chasing shadows away.
We laughed,
We smiled,
Our secrets we whispered,
Our meaning grew deep,
Our love felt eternal.
But then we woke up.
The bridges burned, ...
The beautiful flower that grew in the dark,
All I knew, all I loved,
A light in my emptiness,
A balm for your void.
It felt like a dream,
Building bridges from pain,
Walking through rain,
Dancing in storms,
Bound together,
Broken yet whole.
Each day with you was sunlight spilling through the window,
Chasing shadows away.
We laughed,
We smiled,
Our secrets we whispered,
Our meaning grew deep,
Our love felt eternal.
But then we woke up.
The bridges burned, ...

Slow Burn
Burning holes
In every photo
And sweater that still smells like you
Leaving behind only ashes and the smell of cigarettes on my finger tips
That pick at my cracked lips
As I watch them ignite the final glimpse of you
Ocean eyes reflecting orange flames
Gripping every last page that wrote the years entangled in memories and growth
And always ended between unwashed sheets
That still smelled like her
A feeling so familiar, yet so far away
With arms around you
Skin to skin
But seeming oceans away
Where I was left...
In every photo
And sweater that still smells like you
Leaving behind only ashes and the smell of cigarettes on my finger tips
That pick at my cracked lips
As I watch them ignite the final glimpse of you
Ocean eyes reflecting orange flames
Gripping every last page that wrote the years entangled in memories and growth
And always ended between unwashed sheets
That still smelled like her
A feeling so familiar, yet so far away
With arms around you
Skin to skin
But seeming oceans away
Where I was left...

Simply Stated
She broke her soul on his feelings
Simple
Breaks like glass
Cuts like love
