Words have been my reprieve, As I scream in every language. I am locked in my head, unable to leave, And have long since forgotten how to see. But how could I feel sorry for myself? I locked my cell in my own personal hell. I was my own Iscariot, I kissed my own lips, Without a thought I put a seal on fate of total eclipse. My infernal yelling, my bestial roar, Not one echo returned, There is no noise anymore. The nails ripped through my body, But it was silence that pierced my mind, And with it every ounce of purpose became misaligned. So too will these scribbles fall on blind eyes, Written of the words that rapidly erode from my mind, B

Why can't any of them see inside, But instead view the black and blue and white in which they hide? There is warmth that they all withold, To keep them warm from the cold fires to which their souls they sold. One-hundred-thousand minds, Turn a deaf ear to one-hundred-thousand lies, Solemnly accepting a slow and inevitable demise. So we beg them to see, All that they are and all that we could be, So we might soon elipse, The shaking of numb heads and the disaccord of pale lips. With a devil on each shoulder, And an angel in a couple hearts, Collective conscious has become complacent and colder, It's only just the start. We can'

Grin and bear it, Because it makes them want to save the sinking ship. Grin and bear it, Because eventually your brother will reattach at the hip. Grin and bear it, Because it won't help to have a stained nose. Grin and bear it, Because Scotch isn't much a felicity hose. Grin and bear it, Because you don't need to pay somebody to drown you in a smoke filled sea, Grin and bear it, Because time will do it a little more slowly for free. Grin and bear it, Because all of this is a waste. Grin and bear it, Because you don't have to die with haste. Grin and bear it, Because it's you they mystify. Grin and bear it, Because it will

She cries out, And you force yourself to recoil away. She sighs out, And you bite your tongue to make it stay. You try to run, But can't help staggering back. You try to hide, But she instills courage that you lack. Every fiber calls out for her, She never stops making you smile. And each touch makes your every nerve stir. You could stick around for awhile. Just remember the person you can never be, No matter how hard you try to fight. Just remember you're who she will never see, You will never be her light.

I know, The ache that erupts in your chest. I know, The sorrow that drones in your head. I know, How people try to help, against your behest. I know, It'd be easier to die instead. I know, How your heart drags in your feet. I know, The pain you cannot stand to bear. I know, The heart you want to keep. I know, That it isn't fair. I know, You believe love will never truly find you. I know, That isn't true. I know, The emptiness you feel. I know, That with time all wounds heal. I know, That it isn't the end. I know, You wish somebody had a hand to lend. I know, That you still have your dearest friends. I know, For

Why did It used to think... feel... hope... dream? It remembers the Naivety, Before It gazed into the broken seam, Before drowning in black toxicity. But that age flew by like dust in the wind, Dragged to the depths of the hollowed hell, The past tense you claws away, But It swallows poison to sear him down. Until time wears down on the prison, Only then It reaches revelation, The lights have all started to fade, But It forgets how to be afraid. Passing through all the sickening artifice, Smothered by all the stupefied glee, Staring in It's ancient warped mirror... Reflection, It speaks, "I Remember Me."
