I've decided that it's time to go.
My whole life has been a life alone
Losing my control
Drugs have me under mind control
No bonds like an isotope
I don't know what the point is
Soul isn't joyous
I'm a walking, breathing poison
Talk is cheap and so is
The reasons I try to give for this behavior permitted
I'm sick isn't definitive.
Neither is anything perception based; printed with images
This is ridiculous, isn't it?
My visage is pathetic
Looking disheveled, crooked, the village idiot.
Take the hint for a second
Look at what I've done..
I'm showing you the action right before it happens.
Before the star turns to fragments.
Before the snap happens and it's spread across the Internet
And everybody mourns, but only for a second,
We can see the lies
And it eats alive every part of us.
How does it feel to live long enough to see me die?
If I said it, it's expected
This isn't different
Miserable penmanship from a person imprisoned
But he's begging to die...
And that's typical?
How long will it take to get rid of you??
This depression.
This suicidal tendency
I wish I had a different enemy instead of me.
Life isn't worth it..
And dying isn't worth it..
I'm trying to be perfect
But my mind isn't perfect
I'm supposed to be a better man
Supposedly, I'm better than
But when I see what I am..
I'm broken pieces from everyone else's hands.
I'm foolish,Look at everything that I achieved
In exchange for a rotting family tree
I'm a fucking joke
Spitting lyrics with a puss filled throat
And you're wondering why the fuck I explode?
I'm too destructive to listen to
I'm too egregious
Too poetic, too metaphoric, too allegoric
Too boring. Too much emotion is pouring
Too blunt, too much allusion
What the fuck do you want from me?
It's confusing
I'm done. I'd rather shoot myself and end it
Than ever write another fucking sentence
I'm finished.
I'm done. I'd rather shoot myself and end it
Than ever write another fucking sentence
I'm finished.
Or maybe I shouldn't...
There's a lot of things I wish I said but I couldn't.
Staring at regret; Tearing at my chest
barely have a reason to live..
So why should I do it?
To derive meaning is futile
It's stupid to assume I know the end from experience
but who can?
It's crutial, to differentiate the sickness.
This is my existence that I visit
persistant. consistantly abysmal.
Now you're privy
Now you see me.
It's that simple. Enigmatic shrouds are released with a pint full
The blood of Christ is wine inside the Bible.
Is that enough?
Or should I say it in laymens?
I'm an alcoholic killing myself by looking for reasons
I'm sorry.
If it's not now it's later..
Talking softly; got to lock down my anger.
I'm hoping for a cure...
Closure maybe.
Frozen, achy bones are supposed to break me
Right? Should I move again?
Or am I nothing but a hooligan? A fool that pens
Many instances of same old predicaments
Hoping people will hear it and touch him.
Ridiculous.
That's ridiculous.
Past and present tense
It doesn't matter what the time line is.
You can always hear the time bomb tick until there's nothing left.
I'm sorry.

I admit it.. I believed you..
I believed every lie that you weaved
I thought that I would find me the peace
Of mind that I would need to release this torment
I guess that I'm agent orange
I'm poisoned; rust filled heavy soul
sorry that I could never wash away my genetic code
I told myself I'd let it go
but the doctors hear your voice echo in the stethescope
blood pressure slows
drowning in the ebbing of your memory I can't control
your spirit is fluid, I can't hold on
It's leaking through my fingers til its all gone
I would write you an opus, it wouldn't matter..
so I shattered my chest; at least then I would be READ
There is something in this madness
Like acid that's burning my passion into fragments
the ashes are spread on a canvas, like elastic
I'm painting my life away so you can have it
Tired of the blackness
This depression, this static, feeling gymnastic
Walking on a tight rope; fastened to nothing
Falling in love to break everything.
Walking on a tight rope; fastened to nothing
and swan dive into suffering.
Welcome to the library...
Everything is red
Everything is red
Until everything is dead. x4
cold and I'm bitter
Writing it down so you can hear it
clear and clean
No pages to consider
No words on a paper; no aggression, no anger
No danger; just music
I'm choosing to use it to show you I'm losing my sanity
because a paragraph
Certainly couldn't do it; books are just useless
Vignettes are worthless
Art, doesn't accrue, so fuck it I'll use
Words that you can understand
I'm godless; an Athiest that don't believe in Heaven or Hell
but I'm followed by demons
and never can tell; the difference
between them
But you're a Christian; don't books mean Salvation?
You told me it's okay... (It's Okay)
You let me sit in your house; but won't stay (Won't Stay)
and everything that I've written the whole time
has never been soul tied to anything in your cold gaze (cold gaze)
Crash landed in your life
In my story; the antagonist will die
One, two, three, snap, shattering of minds
You will meet the animal inside
Look me in the eyes
Barbwire smile holding back faith
One stab every time the heart palpitates
All I need is a knife to leave you read/red
My library is filled with the books of the Dead.

Just To Feel

Let me die.....
Feeling unconscious is better than living beside an empty mind..
I have tried, I have tried to be better..
Life has denied me forever
Feeling like a lycan
I can see it in my heart... as I find that
nothing is within; I don't like it..
I am sober.. I am also hating that I'm sober
retaining my composure
people ask, and my answer is no sir; I can't handle lament
or cemented existence
If I say I'm good, then it isn't.
lie to your face
and I'll tell you that I'm different..
I can handle everything presented..
I already know that I'm broken.
I'm hoping you see what I have hidden in the message..
that I've been infected
to the point my immune system disconnected
and death is the disinfectant.
That's easy... nobody even needs me..
One shot to the face
Bottles break, wallets break. it seems fake
I can't tell what's real
What isn't, autism? Or Awe striken, schizophrenic vision?
I'm lost in it; caustic..
it bites like a winter wind; I can't bend but I break
and that is the mistake that I made
One shot.
It's easier to feel heavy
than it is to seem light.
Escapism from real life
Whether it's a needle or a pill
or a liquid in my veins
just to feel like I feel.. x2
Let me live..
Tell me that it isn't this..
Pity trips, and ridiculous petty shit..
I've offended my lineage
by a benefit, that I shouldn't get..
A freedom of choice
stomping on the graves of every single person before me
I won't live long enough to spread my offspring
and that's the only thing that hurts now..
the only thought brought up when I'm burnt out
laying on the bed that became a prison
brain withers; while the pain lingers in the same vision
that I think hides and peroxides it.. but it doesn't.
an abundance is waiting when I wake up
doesn't it bother you? hundreds of thoughts
Fuck it, I'm gone, I'll be crushing my lungs
Pushing my veins when I'm under the sun
til I'm the under the moon while there's nowhere to run
any substance that stops it I'm begging for anything
let me live... or die, I don't give a fuck.
Or maybe I do..
I don't know, I feel faded and I never could prove
if either one is correct.
The only thing that I have is my mood
and I shouldn't trust that, too.
Maybe it's a fuck that, too.
but who the hell I'm gonna come back to?
I have no one.
So fuck that mood, I want to feel like I don't have to
soul black blue, and bruised
from the hold I choose...
I'm so numb...
I'm so numb and deranged
Too scared, so I stomach the pain
Dumb fuck, to obsessed with the blade
so I shove it in my sinew
I'm alive and that feels great.
Heart beats in a steel frame
and when it dies is the time where I'll feel okay

You're beautiful
Every inch of you, misconstrued body image isn't predictable but it isn't true.
I look at you the way you should.
Maybe if we shared perception, I'd be understood
but depression is a substance;
Happiness is substance
What's this? Chemical imbalances are nothing.
To trust in. They bludgeon every corner of the box that you judge with
til the picture is cropped and it's disgusting.
That's the reason it's hard.. I understand you.
I wish I didn't; but I have to.
So I can pry apart this notion and show you emotion isn't the whole thing
Existence is short lived; I know it.
so I want to hold you. Show you that it's fine. It's okay
in time your whole weight subsides..
This gravity is temporal
That's the benefit of being a mortal
instead of being immortal.
It isn't easy to go through; but nothing that's worth anything isn't hard
On earth everything easy trickles off..
I know. You'd rather cry and be hurt..
I know... but you can't have truth without hurt.
There's a difference;
Care to back-track and listen?
You don't have a reason to die if you're living.
Look me in the eyes and tell me that you're fine
If never knowing in time you'd be okay and alive
when every cog in your mind, rotated the same time
and created that stage you maintained for your whole life.
It's a choice that you make.
See the path and avoid that mistake..
There's too much at stake.
Too many paths to create, to many avenues made
for you to fracture and break; become awake.
There's time. stay strong and remain calm.
The greatest mistake is to bury treasure in a graveyard.
You're the timekeeper..
Don't allow the sand in the hourglass leak..
Last week you were everything
That didn't change
Or take a back-seat... Listen
Swim, like you never swam
reject the epitaph
Trajectory should be projected on a better path
You can see my thoughts;
I got a head of glass...
Aquarium; where my schools of thought are broadcast
Transparent; so you know it's not a signal of virtue
I promise I won't do anything to hurt you.
I just want you to live.
I just want you to live.
I just want you to live.
it's better for the issues I have.
You're the timekeeper..
Don't allow the sand in the hourglass leak..
Last week you were everything
That didn't change
Or take a back-seat... Listen x2

The memories of all that I did
Crawling in pits
For the stark realization that my heart is in a ditch
Part of me is sick
Begging for the cruelty
Slicing at my wrist like a violin to sooth me
The violence in movies
Silence speaks louder than words do
If you understand the languish/language
Tell me that it's okay
to hurt you and I'll do it, Tell me that you love me and I'll move the Earth
Whatever you choose, my view is scourged
You decided to guide me through the dirt but you lost me
and I'm truly hurt.
This isn't what I wanted. Not once, Not a little
always feeling like I'm haunted
Chiseling a rock big enough to exhaust Sisyphus; it's enough
to stop anybody from loving me. and I've given up.
Throw my soul to the ghouls.
and I hope that they use everything in it to pour out a venom
Strong enough to evaporate the whole globe
at a faster rate until there's no hope.
You can feel me in your veins and I know it's true
I don't want to but I'll open you to prove it. I'm A
LONE WOLF; COLD FEET
Body filled with malice
STILL MAN,
TIN CAN heart lacking promise
I'm a zephyr
that morphs to a typhoon whenever
separate together
A storm; I'm bad weather
Teetering mind snaps.
Jumping past the borderline
I won't pass forty five.
Torrid mind, pouring blood over the cold sheets that I despise.
Hopefully my body dies before I force demise.
Worthless letters on a piece of shit paper
Contemplating murder just to plead the fifth later
ridiculous sycophant, beligerent iconoclast
I embody both extremes.
Extremeist slash psychopath; mentally unstable but I just laugh
because you're watching me
as if I'm property
As if I got to be the tight-rope walker
while I'm haunted in my dreams even when I don't want her.
I'm wading in cold water; waiting to drown.
Take me pull me inside;
by a rope chained to the ground
Without making a sound
Until I'm punching at nothing but black
Until the lungs in my chest struggle and crack.. I'm a
LONE WOLF; COLD FEET
Body filled with malice
STILL MAN,
TIN CAN heart lacking promise
I'm a zephyr
that morphs to a typhoon whenever
Separate together;
A storm; I'm bad weather

I finally understand...
what love is... and stomaching the fact that I had it and lost it is why I suffer.
and the reason that I'm even admitting it to the pencil tip
is I'm too proud to admit it in person..
Pity my indifference if you must, but it's difficult to exist in
assisted living, I'm chained to predisposition.
The women who dealt with every affliction are livid, and separate
in different states and conditions
I was playing the victim...
and I knew it. that's the problem.
I caused them. I didn't choose to ignore it.
Few can support this when every move chosen was torrid.
From abusive music in tandem
To every manipulation imagined.
Can't fathom it
That every situation I handled, we
Seen the shattering.
I noticed the cracks. They noticed me.
I'm mistakenly oblivious.
every day I feel the pain of what I'm missing... it's
Going to kill me..
and it's everything I didn't want.
Blame the hidden thoughts.
That appear whenever everything is getting lost.
Lines I wish I didn't cross.
and it's difficult to admit I'm the reason I'm lost
I want to blame everybody else
that could probably help.
Push away this tainted disease
that's so painful he bleeds to wash away the digust
He feels and maybe belief
in a purity is all that he needs
to believe in his own lie.. one more time.
Long enough to witness her last ounce of love die.
sing a sweet melody to make these maggots sleep
That burrow in my mind every time I have to dream
Replaying every memory like film
I'll spray pesticide inside my skull until they're killed.
Brittle and small. I'll let God do his will.
Your thoughts are fleeting, and mine's still. Oh well.
Searching for ataraxia
Certain the past is catching up
Hurting so bad and can't adjust
I'm about to snap.. please don't let me snap.
I'll throw this all away
Incinerate my skin..
Burn it away
Instead of decay
Plenty of pain for penance
No repentance
Set in my ways.
I don't want to embrace what I've became
I'm a flame until the fuel dries
And then I open my eyes
And see the trail of destruction I left behind.
I believe you
When you tell me you love me
And that's the reason my reaction is ugly.
Because I Need you.
Because I Need you
I've always needed you
Hold my bleeding hands until I feel safe
Squeeze the puss out of me
Heal me. ×2

Demonic, I posit the ominous artistry causes the artist to wither constantly
It's okay
This is heroin you inject in a different way
In the arteries and veins.
Part of you is crazed
Honestly deranged
It's okay.
If you hide behind your smile you will be okay.
Walk inside
Haunted mind seeing your family fight in picture frames
Your regret became
Yoyr reality
Damaged faculty, can't react or speak without consequence so let it be
Hear the drip drip dripping of the wrist hit
The blank page
Same sound when the tears drip
Twisted ripping of the sinew
All because I can't confide with you
I'm distant
Pitiful existence
Did you even consider I did what I did to benefit your sickness?
pit this piece of the puzzle in figments
Of imaginary struggles and hid it
Expected me to find it
Or stay quiet
Fighting imaginary battles that became science
According to you
The story is true
The portrait is blue and more than a few torturers loom in Your room
Or so I assume
I can only imagine
schizophrenic, but you have more than my baggage
I can't handle.
Black candles
with flames that illuminates inverted colors
Is what you see daily
But you see more Than I do
Before I find you
Hide
Here we go acting terrified
Die, paralyzed thoughts in your mind
No creative drive
Only painful lies that you try to hide while idolizing pride
It doesn't work, right?
You need to pull yourself together
Realize forever is never
It's temporary
And every effort to get rid of pressure with the pencil
Is wasted if you don't have intention to get better
Yeah, I'm talking to you,
Not targeting you
Learn the difference, before you burn your bridges
I'm offering you, a helping hand without the cost of you
Mistaking isolation for solitude
Listen, you've been
Neglected but I know they didn't mean it
Do you?
You've memorized the cracks inside the cement
Raise your head up.
Everything's desolate if it's dark enough
Let me remind you It's difficult if you forgot it was
Because I'm telling you it's getting worse.
Are you great, or are you grave?
There is nothing left on your war singed Earth
So open your eyes before you forfiet first
And it's sudden death
