Learn to Think

Painting a picture of smiling faces
Of people who put on a show.
Fucking liars with truths to hide,
Please pretend a little more.

Come on, put on an act.
You fucking dirty prick.
You're an asshole and you're the shit.
At least that is what's portrayed.

I hope you realize what you have done
To make me say the things I've said.
And if you do, please take a listen
To the things that I still need to say.

Serene

Childish memories for all to see
I hide my eyes when I bleed
I look in my pockets and reach down deep
For all I find are things of greed

Dirty images of things obscene
Fill my thoughts at age eighteen
If we look at memories I keep
We'd find my mind is not so clean

So I heal the wounds of the unseen
Now we can't tell the others our dreams
They will learn me again and again
But I will sleep, my mind serene
And they will learn me again and again
But I will sleep,
My mind serene.

Don't Forget...

Burn a whole in my back
your wealth does my healing.
A picture perfect life, I lack
but yours shows no feeling.

Run around, yell again
I know you hate me more.
Please realize you have no friends
and you are what I abhor.

But that's past and forgotten.
We'll see what the future may bring.
You see that your life's rotten
and my words seem to still sting.

So don't forget, the days you're upset.
Because I remember it all.
Don't forget, the things you regret.
Even the things that seemed small...

New Beginning

The wind blows and I am cold.
The sky falls and I will fold.
The grass grows and the sun shines,
the truth's told as the words mold.

The earth breathes and I exhale.
The clouds part and stars prevail.
The glass breaks and the floor moves,
the boats sail but my life fails.

The snow melts and I am warm.
The hail drops from the storm.
The mouth dries and the moon glows,
the people swarm as new life forms.

Goodnight:

Read the lines of my life
You'll see I see distortion.
Understand the reason I cry
For, I only cause destruction.
Push me towards the jagged edge
And stab me in my back.
I'm slipping off the daring ledge
Because dignity's what I lack.
You feed me the fuel for my fire
The fire that burns a fiery red.
You strip me of my beloved attire,
And leave me alone, cold, and dead.

They stare at the coffin and can't believe
I'm the one laying there, sleeping in peace.
