Pain Was Built
Picking up the pieces again
Fragmented dreams cut deep
Concealing hurt behind a grin
Dirty secrets crowding sleep
Insanity is located next door
Studying every last tendency
Time’s always keeping score
Strung out in it’s dependency
Idle threats missing the mark
Covered with a clinical desire
Calloused eyes spinning dark
Overt intentions must conspire
Sticky lies that complicate life
Buried beneath this heavy guilt
Reality wields a vengeful knife
Along it’s blade pain was built
Fragmented dreams cut deep
Concealing hurt behind a grin
Dirty secrets crowding sleep
Insanity is located next door
Studying every last tendency
Time’s always keeping score
Strung out in it’s dependency
Idle threats missing the mark
Covered with a clinical desire
Calloused eyes spinning dark
Overt intentions must conspire
Sticky lies that complicate life
Buried beneath this heavy guilt
Reality wields a vengeful knife
Along it’s blade pain was built

Everything is just the same
Time flies by, so rather quick
Everyday repeats itself, week after week
Relentless agony, when nothing awaits
Maybe one day life will smile at you
Stuck in the middle without progression
Only you can guide yourself out of there
You can create another world, all in your mind
In solitude you will find
in your head everything is better than you'll ever be
Life is seldom fair
It leads you to despair
After every uphill
You will descend
You can hide from your fears
to avoid all the pain
but never get to...
Everyday repeats itself, week after week
Relentless agony, when nothing awaits
Maybe one day life will smile at you
Stuck in the middle without progression
Only you can guide yourself out of there
You can create another world, all in your mind
In solitude you will find
in your head everything is better than you'll ever be
Life is seldom fair
It leads you to despair
After every uphill
You will descend
You can hide from your fears
to avoid all the pain
but never get to...

Leaving You
I tried to tell you so many times
I tried to put it so you would understand in rhyme
The best I can do is to say it straight
I hate to put more on your plate
My heart is not in what we have
Please don't cry, this is going bad
I tried to tell you so many times
I said and did things, but you were blind
You would have left me if it was the other way around
please do not crumble to the ground
My bags are packed no need for me to stay
I cannot bare to see you this way
You can hate me, curse me, do what...

I said and did things, but you were blind

Sticky
Bullseye
One dart, two dart, three
Your fat, fucking moon pie face
Looks good
Decorated with the bloody entrails
Of my justified rage
Hey bartender
Pass me another Crown
We got a glutton for punishment
She won’t back down
What say you?
That’s the bathroom mirror
Fuck
Me
One dart, two dart, three
Your fat, fucking moon pie face
Looks good
Decorated with the bloody entrails
Of my justified rage
Hey bartender
Pass me another Crown
We got a glutton for punishment
She won’t back down
What say you?
That’s the bathroom mirror
Fuck
Me

dead flowers
sister pain my beloved
roses pricked with clowns that aren't funny
pickled laughter sours my tummy
legal ease whispers and I love you and hate you
confusion is its own master
creed of the lost
keep walking step by step
and if someone pushes you into the mud
get back up and keep walking
dreaded surprise your love came and went
it seems to appear and disappear with the wind
meager left overs I'm offered
my tears started falling and they wouldn't relent
love for me doesn't just iminate from deep...

YOU JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND
It's a shame that you don't nor truly understand that the hurt and pain, that you scared me with not only ripped my heart it tore apart of me. TO never put my trust again in anyone, who came through the doors of my heart and spiritual soul PIMPING... FOR ACTIONS SPEAKS LOUDER THAN WORDS. For you made me feel unwanted and having a low self esteem about WHAT I WANT AND NEED. FOR YOU definitely went as far as destroying, my dreams of being in love with happiness still telling me, I will always be alone. Yet you never once thought that the scares upon me. Would become my badge of my honor, and...

those indistinct murmurs
pitch a sudden high
as unbelievably
peaking lucidities
glowering as angered
red sparking embers
in their many pointed shout outs
of a deadening pace.. wrapped

Boxing Day
Every day is Christmas day for the man without a heart.
He went missing after he last feasted on her.
Yet here he is again with cutlery in hand,large bib around his neck.
He doesn't want her spillage on his body or mind.
Hungry and ready.
Pleasant and desirable.
What a conniving,cunning,heartless, selfish diner.
Every day is Christmas day for the man without a heart.
He knows before he knocks that the door will be opened.
That the one behind the door will ignore his past behaviour and forget his past destruction.

I hate surprises
Oh, don't give me
Alice's intentions
and a queen of hearts
attitude.
In Wonderland,
with a good smile,
even cats disappear.
In wonder
with a good
disappear.
Cat's land smile.
Alice's intentions
and a queen of hearts
attitude.
In Wonderland,
with a good smile,
even cats disappear.
In wonder
with a good
disappear.
Cat's land smile.

Dirty Ace of Hearts
Channeling you
Looking everywhere
Then suddenly
You appeared
A dirty version
Former self
Turned out
Struggling to survive
Your immaculate conception
Poisoned on the avenue
Splintered and struck
I had choices
Take you home
Bathe you in sanctity
Or leave you wounded
For the next John
To worship you
Make you into his likeness
Only to fail desperately
As he won't know
What I...

shape shamers
close your eyes...if it offends...
...if you don't wish to see...
...turn a blind eye...the way you do injustice
...it isn't really there...just pretend
live in denial if you must
but stop belittling what doesn't affect you
hating for its own sake
nobody's saying ya gotta date 'em
look to your personal environ
I'm here to tell you...
...it's real
they will troll you
feed foul names & images into your mind
make you feel less than...
...or too much...
{as if we already didn't...}
...it's relentless
