do you know what it's like
do you feel it inside
can you feel it burning
can you feel it reside
it's deep in your heart
it's deep in your soul
you see it when you close your eyes
i know it's what you despise
but like it or not
it has found a home
a permanent place in your thoughts
where it will stay
until you rot and decay
it's all your fault
so don't try to blame me
i want to see you cry
i want to see you plea
but no matter how much you cry
or plea to me
i will never forgive you
because i know the person
that you can really be.
everything
on the inside
buried beneath all of the lies
the lies that are told
and the thoughts within
hidden deception
is found once again
but the truth will all be revealed
it will come out for all to hear
for some of them
will begin to fear
afraid of the truth
not wanting to know
what really goes on
behind the show
the play they put on
for all to see
will fall apart
will no longer be
then, you will find
all the deception
and all of the lies.

On The Other Side Of Sanity
tell me how it feels
to be you
to be left out in the rain
to be a victim in your
so-called innocent game
it doesn't feel so good
not being so sane
just along for the ride
in your own little game
you've lost your love, you mind
and your stupid pride
it doesn't feel so good
on the other side.
you constantly tear at my skin
i slowly erode from within
you rip at my heart
and you never seem to care
so i bleed once again
then i fall down
and on this floor in which i lay,
im a million broken pieces
i look around
all i see is red
in the mirror, on the floor
everything is dead
my left side goes numb
with the pain you've given me
you can't know what it's like
so don't say you understand
you can't feel the power in my hand
with every drop of blood that drips from my skin
a fire is lit deep within
as these pieces of me turn to ash,
it all becomes clear to me
after the fact, and all this not-so-much fun
i realize, it's
i care about him more than you know
the promises i made aren't so true
im so sorry for lying to you
i care about him so much
i know i said i wouldn't touch
but i may just be saying some things
to make you stay
and promise not to go away
i want him so bad
that i'd do something so wrong
i'd do everything with him
that i do with you
just to see what it's like
just to feel something new
im sorry that i haven't been so true
but i've fallen for him
just like i've fallen for you
now im stuck in between
and i don't know what to do
no matter how hard i try
i just can't deny
these feelings i have
i try to ignore
but then i see hi
just close your eyes
then you'll never have to see
the tears i cry
you won't have to see
all the blood that surrounds me
you'll never see
the terror in my face
as i lay here alone
in this unknown place
just cover your ears
and you won't have to hear
my screams of pain
you'll never hear me bitch in vain
now just shut your mouth
and don't scream for me
i'll be okay
just let me be
no one else can know this brutality
so just close your eyes
cover your ears
shut your mouth
and you won't feel my fears.
on this red ground, i lie again
how quickly it becomes my favorite color
but this shade of red is brighter than before
drop by drop, it falls to the floor
maybe this time there will be no more
maybe this time i'll drown in it
but we can do it together
and then tomorrow can never be
not for you, and not for me
this silver is sharp
but it takes away the pain
as it fades to red
again and again
don't be scared
i've done this before
i promise there is nothing to fear
it's not like that silver that you use twice a year
you can do this everyday and never OD
if you think i'll stop,
then you're a silly boy for trusting me.
just close your eyes
then you'll never have to see
the tears i cry
you won't have to see
all the blood that surrounds me
you'll never see
the terror in my face
as i lay here alone
in this unknown place
just cover your ears
and you won't have to hear
my screams of pain
you'll never hear me bitch in vain
now just shut your mouth
and don't scream for me
i'll be okay
just let me be
no one else can know this brutality
so just close your eyes
cover your ears
shut your mouth
and you won't feel my fears.
