Trapped in this room
with a task at hand compelled to longing
and loathing, wash me away let the current
have its way with me, misdirected. A burden!
Your wear and tear it seeps
like the anguish bearing in your eyes
a threshold all your life, "I see thru you"
and I've been there before
a state of pessimism
and still you yearn for more.
Take me as I am.
And if I crumble, my balance deteriorates
I've become restless, short of breathe
The damage inflicted is present. If I collapse
under this pressure [damaged beyond repair].
Leave me be!
Your wear and tear it seeps
like the anguish bearing in your eyes
a threshold all your life, "I see thru you"
and I've been there before
a state of pessimism
and still you yearn for more.
Take me as I am.
Hallow out my chest so my lungs may
fill and never drain again descending to
the bottom. Cut me deep so you can see
the same blood "courses through your veins"
this is our unison!
Dissemble me
no longer poise
is this the eulogy?
Was this by choice.
"Fill this void"!

Aimlessly

Reoccurring withdrawals
and sleepless nights, that will forever haunt me,
thru all of this, I've chosen "to walk alone". Place your blame on me, it's time to! Reignite the flame, no fire burns in your eyes
the position, has been set.
A life fueled by despair and left to waste
no longer treading aware of my surroundings
"with nowhere to go." I've struggled to make ends
meet. In response, you walk away ease yourself,
rekindle the embers, "that once bled!"
Bask in the comfort
aim your pain directly at me!
I'd love to know "your symptoms"
I feel myself slipping.
My conscience overwhelmed,
this is my curse, so unbearable.
Captive to my past
and coming to terms with this I've allowed myself to lose.
This isolation, isn't bringing me closer to closure, You built
me up so could slowly tear me down, is this my breaking point
the unbearing, still lingers!
Bask in the comfort
aim your pain directly at me!
I want to know "your symptoms"!
I feel myself slipping.
My conscience overwhelmed
this is my curse, so unbearable.
To accept this is to accept defeat
"this can't be real"
to accept this is to accept defeat
"it's hard to believe"
its time reignite the flames
no fire burns in your, eyes the
position has been set!

Scatter
02:51
|
|||
A slave to my emotions
its embedded and imprinted.
Alleviate these impurities.
If you walk away then you appease
to those who cast away their own stability.
"Leave a mark''.
Inner bits my existence fade
seeing red, wishing my vision would
shatter for far too long, I've been masking
my suffering!I won't give up, my ground.
Scatter my ashes
till they dissolve into debris.
"The distance between you and I"
the noose around my neck is piercing
Losing my voice, is this? What it's come to!
At the end, I'm left with nothing,
else to give, a continuation, a struggle that,
most will never comprehend, uncertainty will bind us!
I'd go thru hell for you
worlds apart, convictions drag me down
I won't cope so easily.
Am I fit for this or will I crumble
under pressure will I find comfort
in my skin! Enduring every step.
With so little to lose, abandon me.
Discarded and reduced to numbing
confine me. In the same soil of this hell
we call our home!

Damaged

Useless I have felt
tethered down and left to face the current
no longer willing to take steps backwards
here I am again, at the point of, no return
and I refuse, I refuse to let you in!
Wrap yourself around me,
constricting me of being able to move.
The unsettling wakes feelings like I've never known.
These memories will elude us of our helplessness
and may they rid you of your hurt!
My exhaustions displayed
here I am again.
"Got nowhere to go
with you it felt like home
this time I'm moving slow
so you can take control"
Wrap yourself around me,
constricting me of being able to move.
The unsettling wakes feelings like I've never known.
These memories will elude us of our helplessness and
may they rid you of your hurt!
Here I am again
forced to face the current illusions I can't convey.
Trapped in a world that wasn't meant for me. Bare bones exposed, this isn't guilt, it's a mere reflection, of a life I'm not suppose to live!
Got nowhere to go
with you it felt like home
this time I'm moving slow
so you can take control"
A war," that only coexist within my mind"
exist within my mind! Here I am again,
my exhaustion on display. Coexist within my mind!

You & I
02:20
|

My bones are aching!
From chasing images and others that
want nothing to do with me. I cling to the past,
and it puts me in such immense pain, "I know"
it's only temporary.
I watched you cave, replace the empty that
resides within, I watched you cave over and over again.
Cement yourself in my thoughts have you
ever felt jaded? Autumn leafs descending to signify.
Is this it? , detach yourself from the scars. I hope you
find peace so the healing may start!
And when you took your leave
I lost a piece of me! Misplaced blame.
I watched you fall apart, unable to do a thing.
somethings will never change!
Imprisoned to my own conscious
old habits running thru my head.
Without you I feel nothing, just a soul
I'm longing to find a purpose. I am a void
and I am losing grip, my worlds turned a whole.

Tread Lightly
02:58
|
|||
Lay your words on me
your incentive is clear as always
and in someway it resembles, complacency.
Blinded by frustration, effortless attempts
to perpetuate your essence, fade away.
You struggle to find a balance
while rooted to misfortune and uncertainty.
I watched your world cave in and every step
you paved, only made things difficult, pace yourself.
Spiritually refrained
my head was playing games.
The need to make a change
tread lightly.
Don't wanna be refined
it feels I'm losing time
nows the time to try
tread lightly.
Lay your words on me
your incentive is clear as always
and in someway it resembles, complacency.
Blinded by frustration, effortless attempts
to perpetuate your essence, drift away.
you vanished without trace!
your spirit dissipates, you've driven yourself
into stasis, "dig deep!" is this what it's come
to pace yourself, mountains of turmoil
Spiritually refrained
my head was playing games.
The need to make a change
tread lightly.
Don't wanna be refined
it feels I'm losing time
nows the time to try tread lightly.
"If I lose you, then I lose myself"
"will I slip into, unconsciousness"
"or collapse before, it sets in''
"forgive me and forget me"
I couldn't save you!
And I'm left to deal with it.
May I slip into unconsciousness
before it sets.
Here we are once more
forgive me, forget me
my life is yours to destroy!
