I Want to Exist- Mary's Story

Answer me this;
riddle me that;

enigma-surrounded
I retreat,

to the isolated and the cruel snide
for solace

against you and others
who
think this is a debate,
or argument,
when for me
it is about
whether I exist.

No, gentlemen,
ladies we engage here
not in idle gossip wars
for me this is more serious
and masks,
despite my telling my self
it is less than that,
in fact,
for me
mental survival is at stake here;

all the more so
when I see it is not that way for thee;

it makes me feel smaller still
that you can play with life
indeed, even in this conversation;

as if for you
nothing is a stake;

oblivious to,
that for me,

all is at risk;
the half-healed wound
stabbed again.

There is no quarter here
asked for
or given;
you must die metaphorically
for me
to have just one moment
to exist;

as I resist
illogically
to save myself.

All this
I know
sounds crazy;

through all this
I am aware
that none of it makes sense;

But if I had control
I would resist.

But the point is
I don't
and I can't
and I must save
not only myself
but all the others too
to avoid the mental obituary
that life
seeks to write for me and them
every day, each day, in every situation.

They are playing for the joy of the game;
I am playing for the right to exist.

Crazy?
I know.
I don't know what is wrong with them.
Why can't they see
what they are doing to me?

Why are they so out of touch
with reality?

Tell me who is the crazy one?
Why is my reality
the crazy one?

This rule makes no sense.
It is
well
crazy
to deny me
what I need to exist-
which is
after all
the need to
maintain my dignity
in the face of the
brutal facts of my life;

I really don't matter; ,
no special talents
one among a mass
average-

when
everyone says
I should be special
in some way
but
in fact I know I am not-
I am average,
barely
having
a rationale to exist.

There it is.

So does this all mean
I have no value?

No, I exist.
There is the problem:
people treat me
at though
I don't.

The Two Sons!

Without the two sons,
Life is not fun;
So we run,
Behind the two sons.

SON makes you crazy,
With his treats;
SUN makes you crazy,
With his heat.

SON makes you crazy,
As he is rough;
SUN makes you crazy,
As he is tough.

SON makes you crazy,
As he is in sight;
SUN makes you crazy,
As he is in height.

SON makes you crazy,
As he weeps;
SUN makes you crazy,
As he creeps.

SON makes you crazy,
As we have gain;
SUN makes you crazy,
As we have pain.

SON makes you crazy,
As he crys;
SUN makes you crazy,
As he frys.

So without these:
Son and Sun
Life is not fun.

A friend that I can't see

A friend that can’t see,
I can’t see you,
But,
Why…I can feel you?
I can feel you near me,

I can feel you
And I know you’re always here
You watching me
You can see me…

I know you had save me
You save my soul
You save my spirit
You save my life!

Why I still can’t see you?
I can’t see you!
But I know, I always love you..
I love you…!

With all my heart, I can say that I love you…
I love you so much!
Even millions people said that you’re not exist
In my heart, you’re exist...
You’re always exist,

I don’t care if people call me crazy
Because I believe in you
I believe in my love for you!
You’re a Hero
MY HERO
And always mine! ! !

I hope that I can see you...
And we will be together
One day…!
I love you…
I love you…
I will always love you!

My friend,
My hero
My love
I love you!

Whatever Makes You Happy

You ain't gotta make it hard if it's easy
Applying pressure on the wound when it's bleeding
Hangin' with the guys cos it's just cool being me
Too much talking from the girls drive me crazy
You're telling me your definition of a pop star
You give a smile as you cover up your heart
So tell me what to say and I'll deliver it
I won't stop, can't stop, cos I'm living it
Chorus:
Whatever makes you happy
Is it crazy to be happy?
Cos it's doing it for me
Is it making you crazy that I'm happy?
Lately, you ain't doing it for me
Now let me break it down
Tell you what it means to me
I don't wanna spend my time in the VIP
I gotta meet someone who doesn't need publicity
Cos your style is....
And you can justify everything
But it don't really matter when reality kicks in
So tell me what to say and I'll deliver it
I won't stop, can't stop, cos I'm living it
Chorus:
Whatever makes you happy
Is it crazy to be happy?
Cos it's doing it for me
Is it making you crazy that I'm happy?
Lately, you ain't doing it for me
(You ain't doing it for me)
So whatever makes you happy
Is it crazy to be happy?
Cos it's doing it for me
Is it making you crazy that I'm happy?
Lately, you ain't doing it for me
(You ain't doing it for me)
I'm finding out I don't wanna be in this place
Cos it's about the music, not the fame
Chorus:
So whatever makes you happy
Is it crazy to be happy?
Cos it's doing it for me (cos it's doing it for me)
Is it making you crazy that I'm happy?
Lately, you ain't doing it for me
(You ain't doing it for me)
So whatever makes you happy
Is it crazy to be happy?
Cos it's doing it for me
Is it making you crazy (crazy) that I'm happy (happy)?
Lately, you ain't doing it for me
(You ain't doing it for me)
So whatever makes you happy
Is it crazy to be happy?
Cos it's doing it for me

Time does not exist

time does not exist
we made it up...
imagine you ask someone
for the time and the
reply 'time is a fabrication of
the mind to cope with change.'
you'd think them to
be strange.
but the more you think about it
the more sense it makes.
time does not exist
when you finally comprehend it
everything else becomes a lie,
science will make no sense
history will not be in the past
time does not exist
what else doesn't exist...?

Crazy In Love

Love like crazy

That’s our song.

Love makes me lazy

That’s so wrong.

When I’m in love with you crazy

Baby you save me.

Your crazy love amazes me

We might just be crazy, maybe.

Your as crazy as a wildflower

Baby you’re my daisy.

I haven’t been able to say this lately

But baby I’m your special lady.

The distance between us is crazy

But it doesn’t faze me.

We’re still together baby

We still love like crazy.

You Drive Me Crazy

Tiger eyes
Just as wild as you make me feel
Tantalize
Make my designs hard to conceal
Trying hard to hold on to you
Waterfall in my hand you're slippin' through
Tried so hard it makes me scream
Can't you see that you're drivin' me crazy
I don't know what to do
All you do is you're drivin' me crazy
It makes me feel so good, so good, so good
Will you stay and give me time to work it out
Day by day
Lose my mind without a doubt
Don't want to hang you up this way
Just wanna lay you down and play
I'm gonna go out of my mind
Can't you see that you're drivin' me crazy
I don't know what to do
All you do is you're drivin' me crazy
It makes me feel so good, so good, so good
Can't you see that you're drivin' me crazy (you're drivin' me crazy)
I don't know what to do
All you do is you're drivin' me crazy (you're drivin' me crazy)
It makes me feel so good
Can't you see that you're drivin' me crazy (you're drivin' me crazy)
I don't know what to do
All you do is you're drivin' me crazy (you're drivin' me crazy)
It makes me feel so good
Can't you see that you're drivin' me crazy (you're drivin' me crazy)
I don't know what to do

I do not exist

I do not exist,

I do not breath,

I do not bleed

I do not hurt

I do not exist in your eyes,

not anymore,

I am far, far away, like

the stars that don't exist,

but still they shine and

you can see them far away,

but there not alive, there not

really there. Yes I am not there,

not for you, I do

not want your pity.

I do not want my broken smile

painted in your thoughts.

I do not exist, I am not there,

do not look for me, I do not

exist, I am not there, I am not there

Crazy Enough

I am crazy enough to jump off a bridge for you
Even when i have seen you only once.
I am crazy enough to still be thinking about you
Even when i know nothing of you at all
crazy enough to build castles in the sky
crazy enough to imagine you and me
crazy enough to never see
the lie of you
I am crazy enough to stand in the rain
so i might see you once more
crazy enough to follow you home
so i can see you for a while
and i am crazy enough to want to be your
sickness so that you might go unhindered
crazy enough that no pain hurts me deeply
crazy enough that i cant let go
i am crazy enough to want to die for you
and there is nothing known about you
i am crazy enough to want to kidnap you
and watch you grow old in the cupboard of my mind
crazy enough to kill you so i might have you forever
crazy enough to only think
' if not mine no one else's
crazy enough that i might want to haunt you
I am crazy enough to hear what i want
crazy enough to hurt you so i might love you more
crazy enough to offer my soul
for you
crazy enough to want to
be you
i am crazy enough to say that
i don't know you except by sight
but i love you all the same

Crazy?

spurred by longing
pushed by delusions
head is in a spin-
whirlwind-
not crazy

outside calm
yet somehow
hyperventilating on the inside
i'm not crazy

block you out in my head
pretend you don't exist
don't you wish?
i swear.
i'm not crazy

Those Same Obstacles Will Be There

Why should I go somewhere else,
To do and be who it is I am?
So many others have chosen to do just that.
Only to discover with a backtracking,
They still have no clue as to who they are.
Or for what purpose,
They live to exist to accept and not resist.

For some reason I have always known this.
To not backtrack to avoid facing facts.
And it didn't matter where I chose to sit.
Or be confronted with obstacles I know exist.
Realizing those same obstacles will be there,
No matter where one goes to confront...
That which opposes the being of who one 'is'.

Its CraZzy

Its crazy how we met, its crazy how we ended up like this, Its crazy how I forgive you, Its crazy on how much I love you, Its crazy how I miss you after I take you home, Its crazy how I just wait for you to call my phone, Waiting for that special call that doesnt come, Its crazy how I dont realize that youve moved on, Its crazy how I still think your mine, Its crazy how Im still dieing inside, It tears my heart apart when Im not with you, Its crazy how I barely found out what we had wasnt true, Its crazy how I get tears in my eyes for just thinkin about you, I have a bunch of things I want to tell you, but all I can say for now I that I love you and Ill never forget the things you use to do.

There are tons of people who are late to trends by nature and adopt a trend after it's no longer in fashion. They exist in mutual funds. They exist in clothes. They exist in cars. They exist in lifestyles.

Crazy

Tell me what's wrong with society
When everywhere I look I see
Young girls dying to be on TV
They won't stop 'til they've reached their dreams
Diet pills, surgery
Photoshopped pictures in magazines
Telling them how they should be
It doesn't make sense to me
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on
Tell me what's going on
If you open your eyes
You'll see that something is wrong
I guess things are not how they used to be
There's no more normal families
Parents act like enemies
Making kids feel like it's WWIII
No one cares, no one's there
I guess we're all just too damn busy
And money's our first priority
It doesn't make sense to me
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on
Tell me what's going on
If you open your eyes
You'll see that something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Is everybody going crazy?
Tell me what's wrong with society
When everywhere I look I see
Rich guys driving big SUVs
While kids are starving in the streets
No one cares, no one likes to share
I guess life's unfair
Is everybody going crazy?
Is anybody gonna save me?
Can anybody tell me what's going on
Tell me what's going on
If you open your eyes
You'll see that something, something is wrong
Is everybody going crazy?
Can anybody tell me what's going on
Tell me what's going on
If you open your eyes
You'll see that something is wrong

Let's Get Crazy

Oh yeah!!!
Lookin' for some action, want a mean machine
Gettin' hot 'n' nasty, climbin' in-between
I'm-a rockin' in the mornin' and in the night
I'm gonna find a mama makes me feel right
Get down
Let's get crazy
Right now
Let's get crazy (alright)
Wanna kiss your lips, not the ones on your face
Your innocent jive is really out of place (yeah)
In need of assistance
A dog for my bone
Ain't no way tonight I go home alone
Get down
Let's get crazy
Right now
Let's get crazy (hahahahahahaha)
Oh rock on!
Oh!!!
Get crazy
Intoxication runnin' through my veins
A shot of the past keep runnin' in my brain wave
I'm rockin' in the mornin' and in the night
I'm gonna find a rocker makes me feel right
Get down
Let's get crazy
Right now
Let's get crazy (ah come on get down to business)
Get down (ha)

If You Don't Exist

then who will exist
for you?
who will record
who you are and what you
have done?
nobody.
nobody.
nobody
but you.
because just like you they also
think that they don't exist
come to think of it
if all of us do not exist at all
then who exists?
nothing
nothing
nothing
it is simply absurd when the world
moves and no one is
existing

i don't exist too.
because i have learned
to live.

The Ant

A sixty feet long ant
With a hat on its head,
That doesn’t exist, that doesn’t exist.

An ant pulling a cart
Full of penguins and ducks
That doesn’t exist, that doesn’t exist.

An ant speaking French,
Speaking Latin and Javanese,
That doesn’t exist, that doesn’t exist.

Hey! Why not?

Reputation and Vulgarities

A tongue is meant to be used in all honesty, no matter the reputation if some truth exist in the proclamation.
Vulgarities exist in all languages.
And can be used many ways.
Some are okay I say.
One should not be afraid.
Of opening ones mouth.
Just because some one think what you say is dirty and mean.
Cheap and unclean,
They don't have to listen.
It all about the choice as we use our eyes to eat.
Engulfed in a book full of deceit.
Does that mean it has been compromised.
Put it on the ban list cause in our world that don't exist.
Denial of a reality right in front of you.
I say how could you.
To deny one the right of speech just because you consider it indecent.

If The Surface For Them Did Not Exist

If the surface didn't exist,
Many wouldn't have a thought to cling to.
Many wouldn't know,
Which gossip heard was true.
If the surface for them did not exist.

If the surface didn't exist,
The many dependent on having lives not their own...
Would be lost without being told what to do.
Many absolutely would not have a clue...
How to find their way around,
Without following in someone's footsteps.
If the surface they sniffed did not exist.

And if the surface for them did not exist...
They would not be able to sit alone,
Doing something completely on their own...
And appreciating life,
With the minding of their own business.
If...
The surface for many did not exist,
It would be taumatic for them to seek a thought process.
Many would not know where or how to begin.

So many are accustomed to living lives that are shallow.
With an ability only to identify with that...
Which is supplied and arrives to them surfacely.
Even a dog sniffing tries to find a place to bury a bone.
And doing that alone.

She Drives Me Crazy (feat. Zucchero)

I can't help the way I feel
Things you do don't seem so real
Tell me what you got in mind
'Cause we're runnin' out of time
Won't you ever set me free
This waitin' 'round is killin' me
She drives me crazy
Like no one else
She drives me crazy
And I can't help myself
I can't get any rest
People say I'm obsessed
Everything you say is lies
But to me there's no surprise
What I have, I knew was true
Things go wrong, they always do
She drives me crazy
Like no one else
She drives me crazy
And I can't help myself, no
She drives me crazy
Like no one else
I won't make it on my own
No one likes to be alone
She drives me crazy
Like no one else
She drives me crazy
And I can't help myself
I can't help myself
She drives me crazy
Drives me crazy
Like no one else
You know she drives me crazy
And I can't help myself
Oh myself
She drives me crazy, oh yes
Like no one else, no one else
She drives me crazy
And I can't help myself
