Nothing But Pain

build it up
just to watch it fall
the time you spent
just to lose it all

left on your knees
fists full of sand
sitting exhausted
cant even stand

reflection loses value
each and every day
looking in disgust
as it eats you away

just left with nothing
after all youve been through
left with this pain
and memories she gave you

Feel The Music

feel the music
relate to the sound
study the lyrics
until meaning is found

let it consume you
devour you whole
giving you wisdom
let it take control

music is feeling
captured, controlled
appreciate music
and the meaning it holds

An Eye For An Eye

we cry over a plane
those faces with no name
and we support our military
as our country does the same

different standards for our dead
while respecting the unknown
assuming of their innocents
because they are our own

an eye for an eye
and a tooth for a tooth
were already blind
and refusing the truth

Fragile Like Glass

fragile like glass
your words like a stone
these blinds i keep closed
leave me dark and alone

walls built to protect
the feelings within my core
locked inside myself
from pain iv felt before

so use to this shelter
wont let people in
wanting myself to trust
but unsure where to begin

To Love Is To Hate

loving this intensity
hating the confusion
love is mixed emotions
maybe love is an illusion

its like im in a trance
im hating this control
cant stop these feelings
engulfed within my soul

hating to love
but loving that hate
loving the person
you hate to relate
some call it love
and some call it fate
what have i learned?
to love is to hate

Ghost Wave

time remains frozen
as your hand glides through the air
your just ignored
as they pretend your not there
your left embarrassed
and you try not to stare
you just play it cool
and pretend not to care

like a ghost your unseen
out of sight, out of mind
as their back turns to you
ignored and left behind

like a rogue in the dark
you want to disappear
away from reality
and the emotions you fear.

Religion Is Obscene

belief in something unseen
faith in something unclean
desire for something obscene
morally insane
mentally restrained
emotionally drained
physically nothing gained
crutches are for the weak
for those afraid to speak
answers they refuse to seek
your god is like a creek in the floor
it may make a sound but nothing more
