Love-crack
I'm a crackwhore
and you're the crack
come and destroy me
eat away at my bones and flesh
pick apart my skin
i don't need it anyways
you say you want me
want me bad
but you're a liar
and I-
I'm just a mess
and you're the crack
come and destroy me
eat away at my bones and flesh
pick apart my skin
i don't need it anyways
you say you want me
want me bad
but you're a liar
and I-
I'm just a mess

Roots Of The World
Now some say
We are mud and bones
Born from defiant battlefield dirt
I believe you are me
Scuttle along like shipwrecks
Decency dies in murderous applause
Nothing is forgiven
But some things I will not abide
To rebel in a pyre
Where the flame turns cool
Rejoice, hold the line
Got no friends in this undertow
Reprisals quicken
And nobody gets out alive
If wronged I demand satisfaction
Feast on the marrow
And sleep in guiltless sheets
A roll of...
We are mud and bones
Born from defiant battlefield dirt
I believe you are me
Scuttle along like shipwrecks
Decency dies in murderous applause
Nothing is forgiven
But some things I will not abide
To rebel in a pyre
Where the flame turns cool
Rejoice, hold the line
Got no friends in this undertow

CAN'T KEEP WAITING ON YOUR LOVE
Lately I've been thinking about how the situation with us has changed over time, and I have become PATIENCE and still understanding of how you feel. Yet for the life of me why do you shut me out, and try so desperately to break my spirit and soul. Yet I feel so abandoned by your actions that you project towards our relationship, with no disregards on how you make me feel less than a person and a woman, who still has love for you. But yet there it is plain and simple, to be seen right before my eyes for did you ever truly loved me as you said, or was I just a chess piece on your board of...

Changing
My heart’s in knots
It tripped over itself last night
And the night before
Where it wished to be somewhere else
With someone else
Instead it’s stuck here
You think it’s safe and warm
Tucked in for the night
Between my ribs
Beating comfortable
But no,
It’s beating uncontrollably
You can’t even hear it
Because you don’t even try
You can’t read the room
If you could you’d know why
You’d see the wayward tear
You’d feel the stiffness in my kiss
You’d understand
Sleeping next to you can’t fix this ...
It tripped over itself last night
And the night before
Where it wished to be somewhere else
With someone else
Instead it’s stuck here
You think it’s safe and warm
Tucked in for the night
Between my ribs
Beating comfortable
But no,
It’s beating uncontrollably
You can’t even hear it
Because you don’t even try
You can’t read the room
If you could you’d know why
You’d see the wayward tear
You’d feel the stiffness in my kiss
You’d understand
Sleeping next to you can’t fix this ...

Drown
You kept me in water
Never touching the ground
Because you knew for sure
that I would drown.
You thought you'd break me
By holding me down
But instead you took me apart
from the inside out.
And as my pieces
Floated up to the top
One by one you started to see
That you never would succeed
in drowning me.
Never touching the ground
Because you knew for sure
that I would drown.
You thought you'd break me
By holding me down
But instead you took me apart
from the inside out.
And as my pieces
Floated up to the top
One by one you started to see
That you never would succeed
in drowning me.

YOU CHANGE MY LIFE
To understand and appreciate what you have sometimes, you have to lose what we thought we had to experience, the most deepness of hurt and pain.To understand and feel the depth of the situation, that we created ourselves we have to go back to the beginning and go through, the process of learning that real life love is a two way street. For to understand the importance of conscious thinking, for COMMITTMENT is more than just words for action speaks louder than your words. Yet to understand that it's just not necessarily all about you alone, for you have to take sometime to listen with feelings...

A Suffering of Fools
The ones
who whisper
behind the
backs of many
haven't a face
but a mask.
Those who
listen are
all ears
and no mind.

My mind is playing tricks on me
I hear your voice,
A voice I’ve adored for so long yet,
I am filled with dread.
My mind is playing tricks on me, my dear.
I feel that I need you yet,
I feel like I hate you.
I do not know what is real anymore, my dear.
And I fear I may lose you to a me that isn’t
Me.
A voice I’ve adored for so long yet,
I am filled with dread.
My mind is playing tricks on me, my dear.
I feel that I need you yet,
I feel like I hate you.
I do not know what is real anymore, my dear.
And I fear I may lose you to a me that isn’t

They told me I’d be ok
They said all I had to do was listen to them
And everything would be ok
But it’s not ok
I don’t feel
Ok
I took the pills
And I felt nothing
I took therapy
And I felt nothing
Nothing
All this nothing
It’s like I’m searching
Searching for something
But all I can ever find
Is nothing
And they tell me that all I have to do is listen
And if that doesn’t work then I need to listen harder
Cause god forbid if they do something wrong
No the problem must lie with me
I am the problem ...
And everything would be ok
But it’s not ok
I don’t feel
Ok
I took the pills
And I felt nothing
I took therapy
And I felt nothing
Nothing
All this nothing
It’s like I’m searching
Searching for something
But all I can ever find
Is nothing
And they tell me that all I have to do is listen
And if that doesn’t work then I need to listen harder
Cause god forbid if they do something wrong
No the problem must lie with me
I am the problem ...

Love Looks like Another Trick of the Devil
You weave such a pretty web
Of silky smooth assurances and grandeur,
Even the most guarded of women's hearts
Would flutter with ever-hopeful anticipation.
Somehow, my addlepated mind could truly believe
You to be a spiritual con man of lethal capability,
Speared perfectly into the soft, tender parts
Of a hardened but young and fragile one like me.
The warrior in me sees you for what you are
And she endlessly rages against the howling wind,
Shrieking that she will rise above these treacherous ways
And...
Of silky smooth assurances and grandeur,
Even the most guarded of women's hearts
Would flutter with ever-hopeful anticipation.
Somehow, my addlepated mind could truly believe
You to be a spiritual con man of lethal capability,
Speared perfectly into the soft, tender parts
Of a hardened but young and fragile one like me.
The warrior in me sees you for what you are
And she endlessly rages against the howling wind,
Shrieking that she will rise above these treacherous ways
