Nothing is Free
As I feel the pull
my eyes give in
and drag me into
what was once
a peacefull sleep
not now, how can it be?
what was once a peacefull sleep
nothing is free
Drifting slowly
I watch myself
things seen here should not be believed
a tortured unrest sets itself upon me
it takes what I had before
what I need now
taken for granted
what was once a peacefull sleep
nothing is free.


Nowhere
I thought about leaving
so many times before this day came
I never thought why
it shouldn't feel the same way
Things don't change
it all just stays the same old fucking way
We don't change
We all just stayed the same
We all wanted the same
I tried to hold onto things
I left before
The past seems so far behind us
I can't take this anymore
Today is gone now
the future is all we have left
Try to save this
but there's no where to go
No way from here
We all just stayed the same
I think I'm going insane
We all wanted the same
Can't you feel the change?
All wanted the same
way from here


Innocence (Civillization)
Not to be taken lightly, So don't
Look into the eyes of the man whom you blame
and tell me again,
He's guilty
It's all right when it's on your side
It's fine when it doesn't touch you
Put that needle in your arm
and tell me,
It's Perfect.
Slaughter the few
who (didn't) kill the many
Leave the rest unscathed
Burn the ashes
It's ok.


FWMT
Fathom everything
taken from you
taken for granted
taking three lives for one
It's a long day
breathe slow
think deep
Be thankfull it's there


Unknown
I lied to myself
said this was over
I couldn't have been more wrong
said, "that's the humor"
To not see the things we need
Just hope for the best
and Embrace the worst
That's where we went wrong
To forgive ourselves
the part we forgot
said, "Fuck the future!"
remember the past
It screwed us all before
So why not now? To try again
and see how far we go.


Thanks for actually reading... if you got through it without sleeping,.
any comments/criticisim is openly accepted and encouraged,.,.

    ok... so they arent indented... but

    the first line of each paragraph is the title

  • I certainly wasn't bored! And I think you saved the best for last-I really liked Unknown! Keep it up, ya hoser! ;)
