Overwhelmed

hitting rock bottom
Never felt so real
My body is aching
A pain I can feel
The sudden realization
That you can't get much lower

It's easy to say "try harder,"
Or "get back up, and keep going"
But can you actually do it?
Can you fight the doubts
That fill your head
Like an empty room

How long does it take to climb out
The hole is too deep
No one can hear you shout
It's dark and clammy
But a light shines from above
A drop of rain falls on your head

this place cannot be conquered
It's is a realm of nothing
An empty void
For all the losers and rejects
It's holds your secrets
It holds your fears

Tell me, friend
What do you do in a place like this
Stuck in here with no way out
Every sounds
Coming from the darkness
Can you survive a night?

Overwhelmed with life
Its too much at once
The consequences are brutal
The fall is painful
Looking for an answer
In a place of shadows

Burn the Evidence

Stash it away
Put it on a shelf
Hide it in the corner
Don't keep it to yourself
I threw it away
It was bad for my health

One mans trash
Is another mans treasure
I threw away my treasure
So to you its just trash
Garbage
A load of shit

Kick it to the side
Run it over with your car
Tell me it's the right way
Without it I'll go far
Maybe down the street
To the local bar

Relief

You've taught me a lesson
I won't do it again
I've tried to stay away
But I find a way back
This time I'm sure
I'll stay where I stand

Lack of fear
Abundance of tension
Release the emotions
Leave an impression
Print it on paper
Let the world read it

Make a copy
It's not the original
I've stopped looking for it
Cause if it exists
It's just like me
And it won't be looking either

Unseen

Daydreams
Blowing smoke like a chimney 
Like an old engine made of steam
Appreciating my low self esteem
No need to go out
No need to leave
Old guitar strings
And old broken tune
A strong wind
A cool breeze
I give you everything
To keep you pleased
Do you see?
Churning my feelings
Turning them to cream
Take my love
Take my plead
Insanity
My goods are damaged
Buy them for cheap
My thoughts are blue
Fingers turn green
Understand the world
Not everything is seen

Scribbling

He still writes
She still does not reply
He still spills his heart out
She still asks why
He still wonders about forever
And she doesn't know the answer

He is ready to go
Bags packed
Boots strapped
Focused on the target
The ultimate mission
He's here for something

He finds his peace
In the realm alone
He guesses
Happiness is the key to all
But it's not
It's your doom, your fall

They don't make sense
He doesn't understand
He doesn't want to know
He likes to be pitied
But in fact he doesn't
Just someone that will care enough

It doesn't matter
He's used to it
He's not worried
If he finds it or not
Cause in the end
His thirst won't be satisfied

He wants to be like them
Ignorant, happy
But he is better then they are
He just can't accept it
He's too smart for the world
The world is not enough

Sci-fi Religion

What meets the eye
Afraid of the unknown
The void is calling
We don't want to go
God is real
You just don't know

The religion of explanation
A state of mind
You look for happiness
But you are blind
Not everything has an answer
Knowledge is a cancer

Information overload
Watch my brain explode
Power in the hands of the primitive
Courage for the weak
Greed for the needy
Turning frogs into toads

Let the blood flow
Spread through the body
Miracles 
Watching mountains move
Buildings crumble on command
Hearts shatter on the ground

Like a platter in the sand
A star falls to the ground
Burning, chaos
A madman roams the streets of Miami
Telling the people
Telling them the truth

Let me open your eye
You'll understand
Let me soothe your pain
I'll take it in
Let me hold you tight
Until I take your breath away

Bang Your Head

Against the wall
Against the car
Against the tree
Against the floor
Hit it a hundred times
Until it starts to bleed

Tell me your sorry
I'll tell you my grief
Cut out my lungs
Just so I can't breathe
Looking for a way out
I can't fucking leave

Tell me a story
Lay me to sleep 
Send me a prayer
Written on a leaf
Legs crossed
He begins to meditate

Standing in the tall grass
Thinking nothing...
He dreams
Wishing he could leave
Leave me alone
Leave me alone!!

She has a boyfriend
She tricked him all along
She made him think
His life could be perfect
The perfect disguise
It was just a lie

Dirty realizations
He never even knew
Stupid poems
That could never have use
Read them a couple times
Eventually they'll make sense
