Inside us! !

Inside us we carry that parallel self

A burial vault without any delf

A little prick wakes up that oppressive pain

Buried deep in past with lots of strain

Ugly regrets which weren't ones fault

Nothingness exaggerated, life craving a halt

The feeling of lone & lost thing

One trusted most, damage the life string

Taking relations sensitivity, always forgranted

Something and some words, just couldn't be supplanted

Left behind is the mirror with a crack

Which magnifies self, one less shiny… other very black.

Burden To Carry

Every man has a burden to carry
And some seem to carry it very well
While others complain, about the burden and strain
And as their fall from grace to all they must tell.
They will blame all others for the life they live
And then brag and lie for pity and shame
They will tell themselves to halt, that it was never their fault
So they figure their loss will also be their gain.

Every man has a burden to carry
And some need to carry that burden alone
As they don't seek help, from no one but themselves
And only GOD will feel their pain or hear them moan.
The burden they have is their right of passage
As they walk through life to become a man
Every step that they take, another worry they will forsake
And truly that a vigilante only he should understand.

Every man has a burden to carry
And so many carry it with a vigor and pride
As they head down the road, with their own life's load
While keeping a happiness and love and joy deep inside.
They live the life that was presented to them
And never once do they complain or quit
They take life in it's stride, they throw their chest forward in pride
And what they lost or will loose, they will never miss.

Every man has a burden to carry
And to see it just look upon a mans face
He will either be wearing a smile, like holding a child
Or else you'll see pain and sorrow and even disgrace.
Just walk in his footsteps at least one time
Take his journey as he run's or walks or even tarries
Then you will feel the weight, that man can't escape
As every man has a burden, that he must carry.

Excess Baggage

Well I know the words, but I cant really speak them
To you
And I hide all the pain that Ive gained with my wisdom
From you
And Im eaten alive, by what I hold inside
All the things that I live with I cant easily hide
And Im left here with nothing, nothing to live for
But you
Its not easy to hide
All this damage inside
Ill carry you with me
Until Im not alive
When you look at my face, does it seem just as ugly?
To you?
I cant seem to erase all the scars I have lived with
From you
Im so sick of this place
This taste in my mouth
Cause of you I cant figure what Im all about
And Im left here with nothing, nothing to live for
But you
Its not easy to hide
All this damage inside
Ill carry you with me
til Im not alive

Well, I know the words,
But I cant really speak them,
To you.
And I hide all the pain,
That Ive gained with my wisdom,
From you.
And Im eaten alive,
By what I hold inside.
All the things that I live with,
I cant easily hide.
And Im left here with nothing,
Nothing to live for;

And I cant seem to erase,

And this taste in my mouth.

And Im left here with nothing,
Nothing to live for but you.
Its not easy to hide,
All this damage inside.
Ill carry it with me,

Rotting Heart

I slip a blade across my hand.
Just to feel the sensation of pain.
Just to see the blood hemorrhage.
So many days I feel so forsaken.
The lost sheep who will never find his way.
Getting up one last time.
This time I will end you.
As I scream at the reflection in the mirror.
How could I blame anyone else.
It his fault the ugly beast inside.
To kill him is to commit suicide.
Oh how much I really want to try.
With every thing I do or say denied.
Like I don't even matter.
What did I ever change?
What purpose do I yet have?

Why am I still alive?
Why am I still alive?

Why am I still breathing and dragging my feet for what I believe?
When no one, absolute no one wants to be in or part of my life.
Cheers to all the no ones, thanks for coming to another of my fabulous renowned parties.
Famous for the nothingness of my own existence.
Am I lonely days, most certainly.
I don't desire your pity.
Just some company in this road I have been walking for way to long.
I've watch so many of my own dreams fade into sunset never to be seen again.
And nobody ever came to my help.
Not once, so why should I care about those who created all this indifference towards me?
Don't touch me don't you even dare ever think you can.
You might get my damned disease.
You might turn black as these trees within your very own heart.
Everything will start to rot.
All it needs is a little time.
You made me who I am just keep that in mind.

I Stare In The Mirror

i stare in the mirror
streams rolling down my face
holding a razor blade ever so close
trying to figure out if this is the time to go

i stare in the mirror
thinking to myslef
is this what life is suppose to be all about?
what ever happened to true love
stand by each other no matter what
i thought i found my soul mate
i chased her away with my brutal words

i stare in the mirror
frown in disgust
who have i become?
were has everyone gone?
regrets are seeping down my back
pain is oozing through my heart
my tears have created a puddle
in which i can see myself

i stare in the mirror
remebering better times
we thought we were soul mates
we had the marks to prove it
if i close my eyes i can see ur face
i can even sometimes feel u in my arms
these r all that i have left with, fading memories of the past
ur heart has since hardened
u have moved on and left me in the past

i stare in the mirror
i have no fear
i can feel all the hate coming off u
i cut myself to feel ur pain
hoping i can understand
at the same time relizing that i may never know

i stare in the mirror
i dont have any fears
my tears roll down my face
all the regrets all the appolgizes cant seam change anything
i have no one to blame
im full of shame
i wish i could of bin the man beside u

i stare in the mirror
look deep into my own eyes
i can see the pain that is inside me
all the failures
all the disapointments
this is just icing on the cake

blood splatters on the mirror
i dont have any fears
god will probally denie me
im ready to go
bottle of whiskey is at the bottom
theres no point
all ur hate has soaked into me
im dissapointed in myself
i have no will to go on
i cant hold my head up high
im lieing on the ground
covered in blood
holding a picture in my hand
smiling for the first time
i slit the other wirst.............


i stare at my body
as i float above it
my life passes before me
i relize
i wasted my life
time would would of healed my soul
i copped out ran away
left anyone who cared behind
now i float in endless darkness
i was right god did denie me......

Pain

I have this funny feeling deep within.
It's a pain that rages in my heart.
It's a sadness I can't off load.
It leaves angry every day.
For each second I breath.
I get no relife.

I have a pain deep in my heart.
I wish this pain would depart.
This pain in runs through my veins.
Infecting my blood.

This weird feeling overpowers me.
Leaving me weak at the knees.
My life has no glees.

My life has lots of lows.
Sometimes it has the highs too.
But this pain is my future.
And not the distant past.
It all rushes to my head to fast.

Courage To Move On

My fate can be no crueler,
Now that yesterday’s my ruler;
All due to long past pain
That each day enslaves my brain.

If I did more things right.
If others had more insight.
With times weren’t what they were,
Pain today would not occur.

That tragedy is set in stone.
It hangs around my neck alone.
If only something else were said,
This lead weight might be my bread.

All that happened was my fault.
I had a chance to call a halt
When wounds and wails weren’t so bad.
Now maudlin memories drive me mad.

Or was it all just happenstance
That holds me prisoner in this trance?
If this be true, then I fell
To gutters, goblins… my self-made hell.

At times I stop and wonder;
Would my life still go asunder
If I put the past behind
And looked to see what I could find
In today’s rewards and cheers,
The offspring of sad yesteryears?

Until my ruling past is gone,
I won’t have courage to move on.

Just Wanting To Be Understood

No one understands
No one comprehends the pain I feel
No one cares
What happens to me
No one cares
How I end up

Anger running so deep inside
I've been hurt on too many times
Pain strikes with every thought
Of how life used to be
Friends and loved ones lost
Relationships once had ignited
Everything in life killed
By one feeling
ANGER

Pain streaks through my veins
As I try to feel what I used to
As I try to imagine
The good old days
When everything was better
When someone actually cared

The pain never leaves
From way back when
Images stuck in my head
Thoughts never said
Life sinks into a hole
No one notices what happened
Disappeared and never returned

Best friends never again
More pain hits
Nothing ever the same
Anger so deep you want to kill
Given the chance you probably will
Hatred, pain, past memories relived

Wondering what is in store
How you hate the life you live
Want to hide
And never return
Die and never be seen
Live a different life than you lead

Get out and roam
You've tried before
Never quite got out that door
Always one more thing to do
Never time for just you
No one ever seems to care
Life was better somewhere else

Death seems so much better
But deep down inside
You know it's no the answer
Get out you scream
To your pain
Leave forever
And come not again
Hatred is the cause of this all

Nothing understood by those who care
They don't seem to know you're there
They hear but don't understand
They see but don't comprehend
Life so simple never repaired
Everything seems so useless there

Killing all around us
Between ourselves
Wanting to get out
Of this world we live
Death seems the answer
Yet never said
Tried so hard but never won

Anger towards ones your supposed to love
No more trust
To him you give
Hurt you one to many times
Permanent was the pain
Bruises from his anger you recieve
More anger you then get

Killing not the answer here
Wishing it was
So you could be free
One more freedom you would get
If he weren't around to hit

Anger can't be released anymore
Trouble is caused to much
Always more pain from it
What to do you do not know
Leaving for good would be so great
Getting out of something so bad
Worse than thousand about to die

Alive

I'm wandering the town all light off
I don't know where I'm leaving for
The muddy rain start to fall on me
And I'm walking down to subway
I can't see all around me
Get me out of here
Talk to me if someone is in this darkness
I'm out of my head
Out of my mind
Tell me where I'm what's going on , oh please
Something is hiding me off
Is this the wall of my heart
I have been lost so many things I've got
For long time I've been searching for my way
I carry on, carry on ...
I'm so spiting to their ugly heart
to this so stood world
Everyday I forbear to fall the tears
don't wanna be down
Everynight hurt is so deep in my heart
Is this my life
Oh ! Show me please
The wall close to me
It's so painful. Stop it !
Is there someone to help me
Please get me out of here
Oh ! get me out !
Dead or alive, no place to run
Get it settled once and for all
Dead or alive, can't live in the past
only one way to live.
* Give me heart finishing blow
If I could only turn my back
Let me do screaming high
Squeeze the throes of death for me
It comes here the blame I'd done before
Fall on me as if it grow in my brain
The ugly side of myself tears me up
At this time I can't go back
Give my heart finishing blow
If I couldn't run from the past
Let me do screaming high
Disclose the feeling inside of me
Dead or alive, Can't live in the past
only one way to live
* repeat
The fight is over
the mad rain had gone past over me
blood is flowing down
tear is flowing down
Now I'm alive and I'm walking to town again

Why Me?

Why me?
Why does it seem like bad thing happen to me.
Is it wrong?
To think that I’m the only one with bad luck.
What do you do?
You want to ease the pain but, how.
Will it ever end?
It don’t seem to go anywhere.
Who will help me through?
When I’m feeling down?
Will somebody show me the damn way?
Somebody got to know.
I feel like I’m all alone.
Nobody want to admit that there’re in pain.
What the fudge that about?
Population of 1 is really not that cool.
Will anybody give a damn?
How I’m feeling?
Will anybody care?
Somewhat, but can’t understand the pain.
The pain that I want to ease, deep inside.
All because you not by my side.
Life is really messed up.
Taking people you care about away,
Leaving you here with pain.
Nothing you can do.
Except sit and cry
And ask god why.
Why take them?
Is there a good reason?
If that the case take me too.
Take me from this pain.
Take me because it what you do.
You took my friend, and yet you can’t end mine.
No matter how much I beg or cry.
You want me when it my time.
When will that be?
When I decide I want to end this pain,
Once and for all.

A Painful Love

If I became crippeled or maimed
Would I have your love or just your pity?
Would you cherish and take care of me?
Or would you put me in a nursing home?

And go on with your life, as if I never existed
I would never want your, pity only your love
If I should ever become that way, just let me die
Your love so cruel, hardly ever a touch

In my time of need, when I love you so much
You turn away from me, as if a polite stranger
But it must be love, because I feel no danger
You don't beat me or abuse me, so it's got to be love

There is no tenderness or any understanding
Just day to day living as two polite strangers
I love you I do, my heart beats only for you
Is our love just so hopeless or is there a chance

That we can find our way back to each other again
Sleeping in the same bed so lonely and cold
If loneliness could kill I'd already be dead
Am I not worthy of your love as i once was?

You break my heart over and over again
You can't even see the pain I endure
The pain of the awful silence when we are together
Can't talk to you all alone with my pain

You say if you didn't love me, I wouldn't be here
But if I left I wouldn't be missed or looked for
My heart is dying inside, and you can't even see
So once more I love for nothing in return

Why do I try so hard to make you love me?
So i'll not leave, live without love just companionship
I'll pretend everythings ok, and love won't matter anymore
You didn't even know when I died inside

Going through the motions of acting alive
I feel such great pain over so much from the past
You can't see the many scars I carry inside
You weren't there, their buried deep in my mind

I don't blame you if you don't want to love me
I wouldn't want to love me either!

Dry Eyes In The Pouring Rain

Stand there and
Watch and
Feel me disintegrate
The core of me
The train hurt me
I am no more
I've run
Please run
Don't be led on
Who do
You see, you do
Think you've known me
I wish I knew
At any point knew
How life should be lived
I came
I saw and came
To know I'm lost
If you ever
Knew me whenever
Come find me someday
I was alone
Am all alone
Still searching for the one
Hey fate
Remember me? Do you fate
Do me good?
Oh I
Been a lot less than I
Now I'm void
Who are you
In the mirror, do you
Blame me
White was white
Now black is white
And darkness light
The sun rises
Sets and rises
Watch it set my life
Failure's here with his friends
Mistakes, regrets, and their friends
My days are frayed
I'm wrong
Done wrong
What's right I write
I'm soft inside and outside hard
Life is hard, on both sides hard
But like a crab, I'll be fine
Until that day when the sun sleeps in
the east
And the sun wakes in the west
This pain...I mean rain... will end.

A Child - Like Love

Now you have lost me
Because you kept me in a cage
You couldn’t just leave me be
No more will I stand on that stage

You held me too tight
Choked out my life
You said you’d love me right
But you loved me like a knife

You were obsessive possessive
Your love trapped me like a chain
Your light was oppressive
But you never wanted to see me in pain

I know you loved me
But you need to let me go
For now, my pain, you see
But it’s not all your fault, I know

You were like a child
Never knew your own power
You gotta let flowers grow wild
You can’t keep me caged, I’m a free flower

Somewhere I Belong

(when this began)
I had nothing to say
And I get lost in the nothingness inside of me
(I was confused)
And I let it all out to find
That Im not the only person with these things in mind
(inside of me)
But all that they can see the words revealed
Is the only real thing that Ive got left to feel
(nothing to lose)
Just stuck, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
[chorus]
I wanna heal, I wanna feel what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain Ive felt so long
(erase all the pain till its gone)
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like Im close to something real
I wanna find something Ive wanted all along
Somewhere I belong
And Ive got nothing to say
I cant believe I didnt fall right down on my face
(I was confused)
Looking everywhere only to find
That its not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
(so what am I)
What do I have but negativity
cause I cant justify the way, everyone is looking at me
(nothing to lose)
Nothing to gain, hollow and alone
And the fault is my own, and the fault is my own
[repeat chorus]
I will never know myself until I do this on my own
And I will never feel anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be anything till I break away from me
I will break away, Ill find myself today
[repeat chorus]
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like Im somewhere I belong
I wanna heal, I wanna feel like Im somewhere I belong
Somewhere I belong

Getting Past The Pain

if you can understand,
you can see,

all of this hurt and pain,
i'm just sick of,

can you see,
i want to be any where but, here?

i'm sick of dealing with life,
just let me go,


let me be selffish,
i really don't care,

i'm sick of feeling this way,
i'm sick of feeling alone,

life not getting better,
just let me have my only choice,

to take away this pain for good,
i've thought of ways,

where i won't return,
just let me be,

i'll see you in another life,
a life that is better than this,


because by the end of each day,
i try my hardest to remain,

but, it just harder to stay,
when all you really want,

is to take this pain away,
that deep inside,

that won't subside,
no matter if i cry,

no matter how hard i try,
i just can't get past this pain.

Nobody Can Save Me, But Myself

at times i feel alone,
like nobody will understand me,
the way i feel,
what i'm experiencing,
and it true,
my past is my past,
the memeries are mine,
i can explain all i want,
they will never truely know,
that pain i have suffered,
the nightmares i have at night,

feeling numb most of the time,
just to not feel the pain,
the deep pain inside,
that is like a knife cutting inside,
without a visable scar,
only what you see,
sometimes you feel crazy,
like nobody will ever understand,
but it only becuz i block ppl out,
block them out from getting close,
i feel like if they only knew,

what i live through day after day,
they will see me as a problem,
to have to deal with,
i'm not just a problem,
i'm a human being,
who gotten lost along the way,
and need to find my way back,
sometimes it hard,
i stay wondering in the past,
as if it where i belong,
than out of nowhere,

i'm back in the present,
trying to pick up where i have left off,
wheather it was a day, week, month, or year,
ppl don't even realize i'm gone,
i walk around pretending to be happy,
and like nothing is going on,
but deep down i'm a mess,
falling down a black hole,
and the only person that can save me,
is myself.

My mental pain

The pain inside me
The mental pain inside me
Makes physical pain seem like a walk in the park
But that’s just half
Of this story
Do you know how it feels for no one to hear you screaming
Its like time stood still
I’ve lost it… oh well
Time is now standing still
Why should one heart feel so much pain
And who will be the death of me
How long will It take for you to see
The damage, the carnage
Your words, your actions
have done to me
You words, your actions
Cause the pain inside me
Your words, your actions
Cause the mental pain inside me

My Requiem

From the arising of the golden sun
To the gloomy shadow of the moon
The wind still whispers
While I'm standing here by myself
I'm waiting for a sign that could lead me
Away to the land of the divine
But when weariness starts to affect
The eclipse of the sun come to earth
I hide from the sun and try to live
And I know in my heart
(That) this is a life that God can not give
I still carry in my mind
The feeling that I'm blind
I still carry in my mind
The fear that something is behind
Tear, left bare
Rule the whole earth
The dark will rise
I await its birth - To die
I see gray in the sky
And pray for rain
But the sky slowly becomes blue once again
The spirit of God controls my mind
The divine - The unearthly Lord
He left me a sign - Made me a God
I lie in eternal coldness
I'm trying to find
The thing I couldn't find
Nowhere else in my past life
My spirit sours into heaven
I reincarnate into a cold-black raven

Damaged

Didn't you hurt yourself
Couldn't you wash the blood away
Didn't you love yourself
Couldn't you see the truth
Didn'y you wake to see the light
Couldn't you hear the truth

(GOD YOU'RE SO SHAMELESS)
Stand up to me I know what you'll say
(GOD YOU'RE SO SHAMELESS)
Why don't you wake up and stop all the pain

How could you really know as your
blood flows
The damage left inside
If you should ever see the pain in me
You'd wish it away

Didn't you hurt yourself
Didn't you love yourself
Couldn't you find yourself
Such a shame it's a waste of a life
Couldn't you save yourself

How could you really know

[Chorus repeat 4x]
