Have You Ever Been To Hell?

Have you ever been to hell?
Well, I can show you how it looks
It sits inside a needle
Guarded by the crooks

All the Devil's children
Stealing souls by day
No matter if we beg
Or, what we do or say

They take away our freedom
They cuff and tie us down
We try to scream out loud
Yet, we cannot make a sound!

The Devil's guards' they are
They sit outside the cage
Dressed in body armour
And, filled with only rage

And, once you're locked inside
You cannot even breathe
So, you better just prepare-
And, remember you can't leave

Poison it does come-
In many forms and shades
It tears apart the people
Who become the Devil's slaves

Fighting for a way
To try and stop the demons
As they enter deep inside
You can hear the victim's screaming

Yet, no exorcism works
The soul it has been taken
The pain is overriden
As the life has been forsaken

The Dark Inside of Me

Can you really see
The Dark inside of me?
Can you really tell
That I have walked through hell?

Tell me can you feel-
The masks I try to peel
Instead I stand so cold
Lost, not brave or bold

Tell me can you touch-
My scars; they hurt too much
I just want to know
How to end this show?

Did I hit rewind?
Or do I try to find-
Someone that can be
The rescue within me?

Could the truth be here,
And, is it what I fear?
This person-now am I?
I look up to the sky

And, scream 'I can't believe-
This Demon's inside me! '
'Get this thing right out! '
'HELP! ' I scream and shout

What is this-I am?
Now, I take a stand!
I am trying to fight
I want to see the light

Now more Dark inside
-The light will override
This poison that I hold
How could I stoop so low?

Save me now-I scream
Wake me-from this dream!
I am stuck inside
No more tears I cry

Now I walk alone
My darkness only shown
But, I must break free
THIS-I cannot be!

Will you help me out
Won't you help me free-
What this is all about-
These Demon's inside me?

Everybody Is Broken

I'm looking around,
But, it's like everybody is broken!
Suffocation-no breathing!
We all seem to be choking
Spread on the ground
Just like shattered glass
Oh, to be free-
Free of this place now, at last!
Life, that is-
The Journey, the test.
This GOD forsaken battle...
We understand it less and less
Yes, all the broken people
Never asking to be here
Filled with nothing but-
The most intense despair
We fall down to our knees
We beg to find salvation
Ringing through the air
You can hear our desperation!
I try to look away
My eyes I try to close
Because, we ache so much inside
But, it's like it doesn't even show
The Darkness invades
The Dark-it surrounds us
We're bound and we're gagged
And, no light is around us!
We run, and we hide
We then beg for a chance
But, that drug it is sly
And, it takes us at first glance
I want to scream out loud
But, instead I sit here choking
Why are we so lost?
Why are we so broken?
Never really knowing
What to do or say
Never really seeing
The road that is the way
And all we see is darkness
So again we try to hide
But then we cannot find
A way now back inside
So where do all the people go-
When they've become so broken?
How can we prevent the death...
When they sit there choking?

Just a Horror Picture

Look into my face
Look into my mind
If it's sanity you look for
It's what you probably will not find
Gone are the days
That I had peace of mind
The contract has expired
And I signed the dotted line
There was once a world
A world I thought I knew
But, along with my sanity
That world is gone now too
And, now I sit here stuck
I'm living in this hell
Drugs they did take over
It's my soul that I did sell
I sold it to the devil
As I shot another bag
And, now I sit in pain
And, scream and choke, and gag
But, I cannot stop these cravings
I cannot quit this stuff
The pain it is too real
The addiction is too rough
It's like a scary movie
That I dream to just rewind
Or pause or just start over
But, there's no button I can find
So on I go with living
But, it's drugs that I must quit
Because, I cannot take another day
Living on this sh*t.

The Credit's Song

I cannot take it anymore
These cravings drive me nutts

My world it's gone-it's so screwed up
My wrists they bleed with cuts

I scream out loud, I try to run
I fall right down, I have not won

This battle lost-a whole damn war!
And, I scream again-my heart YOU tore!

Right in half, you kidnapped my soul
And, EVERYTHING; this I know!

Goodbye to life, today is gone
And tomorrow-Goodbye, so long!

I gave it up, to this drug
I gave it up, so pull the plug

Life is over-as I know it
I scream inside, but NEVER show it

I can't go on-kill the beast
It is dead-it's deceased!

As I sit, I stare in pain
This drug it has taken over my brain

I cannot stop, I can't let go
This I see, THIS I know

Yet on I RUN-ON I GO!
With the script, to this show

A screwed up movie, about me
Can't you picture THIS MOVIE?

It ends the same, like the rest
I die in vain, withe the best

An addict gone, an addict down
A cry, a tear, a moan, a frown

I wave goodbye, I say so long
And now we hear 'The Credits Song'...

I'm snow white
With an ash painted face

A night purple shade

Beautifully Strung

Strung out and beautiful
Kind of like my drug
Strung out and worthless
Now this is kind of fun
It's also kind of sad
Sort of like a song
One that has no end
Unless you pull the plug

Stop the screeching
In my ears
Erase the pain
Erase the tears
Stop the torture
Through my veins
Stop the violence
Stop the pain

I cannot take it
Anymore
I'm strung out-
I'm just a whore
To myself
Atleast I am
I sell my soul
With the needle
In my hand

I give my soul
Right to Satan
Then, laugh in pain-
Overtaken!
I laugh because
I cannot cry
I laugh outloud
But, want to die

Death consumes
Everyday
Death it does-
Pave the way
For my existance
For my life
All this pain
Like the sharpest knife

Piercing through
My wounded soul
My throat is gagged
As I pay the toll
Through the gates
I pass right through
And, I'm in hell
With out a clue.

It's Getting Ugly

They want to live
You want to die
You don't know why
You feel the pain
You scream his name
Crying
Trying
Unsuccessfully dying

Is this how it was meant to be?
You
Without me?
Is everything you say a lie?
Why the hell do we even try?
Why do we care?
Take the plunge
Do the dare

And then the day comes:
'I don't love you anymore.'
What is this life...
Worth living for?
Did I love you?
Do I now?
Could it be true
Someway, somehow?

Did you really
Shatter my dreams?
My voice is begging
For you to hear me scream
'Why me? ! '
I scream outloud
And, soon enough
We have a crowd

'She's going to jump! '
Somebody yells
TIC-TOC
The time tells
'Goodbye, ' I whisper
Oh-so-low
I hear some pleas
Of 'please don't go! '

So, forgetting life
Love, and hate
I dive into the air
Accepting my fate
Gasps, and cries
And, begs of 'NO! '
As I reach down
To closer below

And, then it's over
In a flash
My body is mangled
My head is smashed
I can no longer think things through
I can no longer think of you
A new escape-
I now begin
But, in the end
Did I win?

The Curtain Closes

I sit here again
Starting once more
Lost yet another friend
And, now I feel as if I've lost the war

Shattered and broken
Now I lay bleeding
A knife through the heart-
To stop the beating

So empty-so lost...
So beauitfully broken
I cry and I sob
On the floor choking

I give up
-This time for certain
I'm done with this play
Please just close the curtain!

And, one single tear drop
Slides down my cheek
As I pray to the unknown
To stop feeling so weak

And, then I stand
And I start walking
I open my mouth;
But, it's like I'm not even talking

I really can't take it-
It's too hard to believe
I did it again!
And, now I can't even see

So now I am falling
And, failing this test
As I hear death calling
I lay here a mess

Potassium is an Essential Nutrient!

I want to peel you
Like I might a rotting banana
Exposing your insides
And, savioring the good
Chewing and swallowing
What's left
Leaving the rotten parts behind
The skin left a heap on the floor;
Waiting for the next person to
Slip, trip or fall over
With the realization that it's empty inside-
Nothing is left.
Even the decay discarded
Seperately,
And divided amongst the pits of human waste.
With the consumption of your soul
Nourishing my body like a silver-white
Soft-light Metallic Chemical Element.

We Are One-We Suffer Together

The Revolution lives…
Mind pollution gives
A reason to this game
A season with no name

A rapture's what we'll call it,
No, you just cannot stall it!
Giving in…seduced by dark
No longer just a Question Mark

Asking why? Or, how? Or, when?
In the dark-yes yet again!
We succumb to all the death around us
We feed and lie
As the rest surround us

A taste so pure
So bloody, fresh
We bite down
Upon the flesh

The sharpest fangs-
They pierce the skin!
And, then this revolution
Does begin…

Taking over, we steal their souls.
In the dark
So nobody knows!
We will win
We will fight
On we go-we feed, we bite!

We stand tall, we have risen
Up above; And now they listen!
Victory
We now know…
In the sunsless slime;
As they scream: "NO! "

The Junkie's Prayer

This tidal wave
My life overtaken
I surrender again
To the piercing of my flesh
Blood spilling
Pulsating veins

Born Inside a Metal Box

Born inside a metal box
I wrestle with the steel-made locks
I'm suffocating
I cannot breathe
Help me GOD
Help me please

I'm banging the walls
I'm yelling out loud
They watch as I suffer
They surround
And, they crowd

I scream for a chance
I beg for some mercy
But, they've tied me down
They've chained and they've cursed me

I'm stuck by myself
I'm here all alone
And, I just can't break through
These walls
Made of stone!

I feel I am caged
As I scream in pure shock
And, I pull
And, I yank
And, try to undo this lock!

I pound on the walls
I shout for some help
Please help me GOD!
Please get me OUT!

But, nobody can hear me
Nobody can help
Nobody can save me
Nobody will get me out

The voices surround me
They gather-
They stare
They whisper
They giggle
As I scream
And, I glare!

I struggle
I fight
I punch
And, I kick
As my stomach is churning
Now I feel sick

But, what I now see
What I now know?
I just can't accept it
So I don't let it show

But, I do know deep down
What my problem, it is
Thsi box that I'm stuck in?
That I'm stuck living with?

What I finally realize
Just in the nick of time
That this box that I'm stuck in? -
This box is my mind.

The Book Slams Shut

Tell me would I be more beautiful-
If I spoke just like you?
Would I be more willing-
To do the same things that you do?

Superficial and dead;
Yes dead to the core.
Feelings are overrated-
They just seem such a bore!

I felt them all once
Yes, I felt them before
And, then I felt as if I were dying
As if I were Death's Little Wh*re!

So I gave up emotions
I became cold and displaced
I wiped all the tears
That were streaming down my face

I couldn't handle emotions
In love, then in hate
So I ran from my feelings-
I won't be my heart's bait!

Rage now ensues,
Sometimes I feel it.
Yet, even my anger-
I can't seem to reveal it

Life is so fickle
Everything just seems FAKE
That is why it is this world
That I now realize I HATE

I just want to cut myself
To see if I'll bleed
This book now is finished!
It wasn't worth THE READ

So I'm slamming it shut
Yes, I toss it to the ground
No hate has been lost...
And, no love has been found!

Color Blind

There is a world I search for
A world I try to find
I'm searching for a world
A world that's color blind

Where race, it has no meaning
Where skin it does not show
Where people learn acceptance
Is a world I'd love to know

Where I can see your soul
When I look into your face
Without the focus directed
On what we name the race

Where beauty defines itself
In an array of many shades
Where the people join together
And the colors start to fade

Where the shades they lose their value
And more importance then is placed
On qualities more relevant
Something beyond race!

No more hate! -I'm begging...
Let no more cruelty reign!
Stop the faces soaring
In an ocean filled with pain!

Race will have no baring
On what we do and say
And, people stop the caring
On the colors we display

Where is this place I search for?
I search, I hunt, I plead
Where is this place I long for?
I cry, I fall, I bleed!

Because, the spirit inside matters
The soul that should shine bright-
For this to shine right through
I know that we must fight

Until the very end
We'll fight 'till the last breath
To stop the hate from spreading
We must fight 'till nothing is left!

The House of Broken Souls

So I guess I'm going back
Yes-I guess I shall return
To a place where hearts are broken
To a place where souls do burn
Back to this place I go
Back again somehow
I must be getting back
I swear I'll go right now
Though this place is dark
Though the souls are dead
Healing is the game
The healing of the head
The body and the soul
A game to go on living
And, they dose me with this stuff
It's this stuff they keep on giving
To hide the pain
To hide the lies
To ignore the pleas
To overrule the cries
They shut us up
They turn the lights
We cannot win
We cannot fight
Oh my lord-I'm back here!
Not again
A cry-A tear
Rolling down this lonely cheek
Of this girl
So lost, so weak
Save her now
She's gone bad!
She's gone crazy!
She's gone mad!
I must know-I must ask
Why right now? Why today?
Is there not another way?
Save me Mom
Help me Dad
I'm so sick
I'm so sad
Pick me up-stop the pain!
It's pouring down
I feel insane!
I've lost it now
And, they do run
Away from me
I'm all of one
Alone at last,
So sad, so cold
I fade away
No longer BOLD
I try to run, I try to fight
I try to kick, I manage to bite
I bite down
And, you sit in pain
You scream outloud
You scream in vain!
'Save me Jesus! '
You do pray
But, the prayers won't save you
Not today.

Transfixed.

I lay in a coffin
Rest my eyes, as I close the lid
Now finally of
-This sorrow, I now rid.

As my body grows limp
And, my breaths start to lessen
A gun slides in my mouth
As I pull the trigger of this wesson

Spewing through the air;
Blood surely splatters
The sound is so raw-
It's mixed with organic matter

The brain; it flatlines.
As does the heart
Farewell to the soul;
Was there even one from the start?

Peaceful and rested
Now I shall seem
Lost in death's trance
Tossed within the dream

Eyes now left nothing-
But, a blank lifeless stare.
Donned in all black.
Peace now fills the air

Waving goodbye
From a place deep within
No longer convinced
This suicide is a sin

Empty and dead
Yes, dead to the core.
I dreamed of this vision.
Yes, I dreamt it before

Now in my death
I find solace and peace
I find my soul at ease
As I now lay deceased.

If Death Had A Face, It Would Be Pretty.

A porcelain Doll
Dressed like the Grim Reaper
In this pit of pure darkness
I fall even deeper

Shrouded in mystery
Consumed by suicide
An obsession with control
That I try to hide

Playing this life
Like one hand of poker
Where I am the Queen
And, God is the Joker

But, the Devil's the King
Who always reigns surpreme
It's like a nightmare I'm stuck in
Some screwed* up lucid dream

Skies of Vanilla-
Except that they're NOT
All I see is darkness
Until my eyes start to rot

But, then a hint of some light
Again-just a tease!
Another joke from the 'master'
And, now the skies start to freeze

'Hell' may be on fire-
But, it's heaven that's COLD
Eternal Peace?
I'm not entirely sold

'Fiction'-I'll call it
A master-piece, even!
But, darkness consumes me
So, it's fiction I can't believe in!

A view of this world
With a saddist's telescope
That leaves me in agony
With no faith and no hope

I try to look away
Yes, my eyes I try to close
Yet, toward this dark pit
It seems the path that I chose

So on I continue
As if magnetically drawn
Again, with this riddle
As if God's only pawn

Yet, when I get close?
This puzzle-I start to solve
Right in front of my face
The answers seem to dissolve

Then, with wreckless ambition
To simply conquer DEATH
I look to the sky
And, question: what's left?

Like a Pile of Ashes
I lay strewn on the ground
As my voice begs for freedom...
Yet, I don't make a sound.

Vicodin

Pills, Pills, Pills
Pills I do adore

Pills, Pills, Pills
Yes, that's right-
Give me more!

'Look at her!
She's such a fien'd! '
'No, I'm not! '
-I try to scream
But, I know the truth
And, so do they
I'v got no chance
In them believing what I say
I'm addicted now
Completely hooked
It's not only my life
But, my sanity they took
All of my pain
All of my frustration
My pills took away
My fantasies of self mutilation
They make feel great
They make me complete
My neurosis they erase
My paranoia they delete
So I eat them for breakfast
For lunch, and for dinner
And, I no longer care whether
I'm a loser or a winner
I eat them all day
Shovel in one right after another
As I try to erase the pained faces
Of my Father and my Mother
And, it's like everybody watches
Yes, they just sit and they listen
As my eyes are tear streaked
So shiny they glisten
It is my pills that I love
It is my pills that I need
It is my pills that I live off of-
Live off of and feed
They make me feel happy
When I'm feeling sad
They make me feel good
When I'm feeling bad
They stop all the thoughts
They seem to flood through my brain
And, they make me feel normal
Even though we all know I'm not sane
Yummy.
I ate them again.
You know its funny?
They have become my only friend
All of this I explain
I scream and I shout
I just want my pills!
I don't care what anything else is about!
You can't have my pills
Give me them back
Give me ten more
Hell-give me a stack!
'Cause I'll die on these things
And, I'll do it in vain!
Because they feel so fu*kin' good
Painkillers really do kill all the pain.

The Missing Puzzle Piece

I try to think
Of one reason you left me
And, I try to envision
Why you did reject me

Yet, I cannot seem-
To really place it
Or maybe I just can't
Really face it

How could I provide you-
With what heroin could?
How could I give to you-
What that drug, it would?

So seductive, so peaceful
Even graceful when dying
As we'd shoot through sky
So high we were flying

I think of your smile
I remember those eyes
So sad
And, so blue
A devil-
In disguise

YOU were my drug
YOU were my breath
And, now it is over
And, now I face death

So empty-I am
I feel as if I am dead
I now close my eyes
Because, I cannot look ahead

I remember the touch
-The touch of your hand
I remember those feelings
That I now know I can't stand

And, now part of me just
Wants you to bleed
To scream-and to cry!
To feel, and to need

To know what it feels like
To be abandoned
For you to do this to me
I could never even
Have Fathomed

Yet, there it is-
The writing's been written
Across the wall
And, I feel like I've been bitten

By something
That's powerful
And, deadly
And, raw

Like the bite of a viper
Yes, I freeze
But don't thaw

As the venom
Starts flowing
Right through my veins
I scream
And, I choke
As I now lie in pain

I try to get up
Yes, I try to fight
But, it doesn't seem worth it
It just doesn't seem right

So, I kiss you goodbye
And, then I spit in your face!
It is your existance
That I now dream to erase!

Your voice
And, your sorrow
Your anger
And, despair

Your need to keep using
The fact
That you don't even care

One time we lived,
United as one
But, that time has ended
Yes, we've come undone

And, like a puzzle that's missing
It's center piece
I'm left strewn and scattered
Overcome by defeat

Yet, you will be the one
To eventually LOSE
When you are the one
Who again starts to use

And you'll use 'till it's over
And, your RIPPED
And, your BROKEN

As you sit on the floor
Left rotting and CHOKING

And, then I will chuckle
Hell-I might even grin!
My life I'll renew,
A new life I will begin.

Quiero Tu Manos Por Todo Mi Cuerpo

If I could just touch you
Maybe I could breathe
But, because I can't touch you
It's like I can't speak, walk, or see

A look in your eyes-
One like NEVER before
It seems to just haunt me
Until I'm left screaming for more

If only I could feel you
For at least just a moment
Just one touch, one taste-
And, I'd make it mine and just own it

I promise one touch
Is all that I need
I'll then live off of the memory
Of that one touch-I plead...

But, if I do feel you,
I may crumble to the floor
I may extend a hand
And, beg for one more...

It is you that I long for,
As I desperately try to gasp for a breath...
And, I just need to feel YOU...
I now mourn your absence like a death!

And, while they try to bury you
Paralyzed-I fall to the ground!
I try to stand up, I open my mouth,
But, to no surprise-I can't make a sound!

But, I know that you feel it
No words were ever needed...
The memories they haunt me,
Like a button that's stuck, or a show that's repeated-

I can see you and hear you,
I feel the energy lighting the room
The darkness, the light,
A black rose in full bloom

I can practically taste you
It's the Laws of Nature we can't defy
You can't prevent it from happening
It's something that you just can't deny...

I know that you feel me
As I course through your veins
I could be the perfect drug
As I surrender-you hold the reigns!

It's a lust, and a longing
It's DEVOURING need..
It's obsession-I crave you
And, now you feel it, indeed!

So I reach out a hand,
You must embrace this fate
The air, it is thick
And, it IS getting late!

So walk with me,
If only one time...
Because you DO feel my desire...
Yes, we've cross that line.
