Still I sit here
Why am I hating
All that’s been brought down
Patiently anticipating
Waiting moments
Killing time
Never thought
It would take this long
Flipping over hour glass
Seems the same as watching the paint drying
Boredom settles
It makes a home
Hatred stirred
But doesn’t grow
Lack of feeling
No care
No worries
Even with fate drawing upon me
Fireworks
Subdued by missiles
Explosions suppressed
Never shown
Blasting blocked
There’ll be no explosion
No astonished faces
Confused in a commotion
What will
It take to be over
When will
There be conclusion
Don’t want
Another act
Please call
Need the final curtain
Nothing much
Is known for certain
How do you pertain
What is your purpose
Show your will
I beg from near
End the torment
I give in
There’s no more fear
Give me something
Don’t want to pass the time
Clock is unwound
It’s settling time
Don’t deny
I do admit it
Did not try
I just can’t live it
Stop the hurting
Relieve their pain
Bring a final moment
Must I beg again
The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!
And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes
(And function)
Function is the key
Felt it come
It’s coming on so strong
Light up bright
So that we
So we can guide from harm
Reaching hand
Oh steering clear
Drag me from
All those things we fear
Empty eyes
Skin so pale
A lifeless soul
Who am I to criticize
Time bomb ticking
To the world’s clock
A social beat
You can not stop
Time bomb ticking
When will I blow
When will I pop
Shadow creeping in
Upon me
Are you here to save the day
Shadows come to overcome me
Helping hand
Show me now
End these ways
Shadow creeping down
Consume me
Take everything that you have to
I understand you don’t want me to quench my desire
I understand you do only what you have to
Copious distain
It does provide me
Hatred the fuel that I need
Hold me back
Just end it all
Stop my clock
Make me the one who bleeds
The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!
And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes
(And function)
Function is the key
I lit the match
I returned the fee
Am I to blame
For setting myself free
Penance paid
You paid the price
So have I
But not just this night
My soul has fled
Not by the flicker of my flames
I never had a hope
When you stomped on me time and time again
I’m help tight
From arms stretched from a mighty thrown
I never thought twice
Couldn’t you tell
In the lack of emotion I’ve shown
I never asked for much
Just the acceptance of me
I guess that’s to much
But now I’ll be free
From battered and torn
To being your thorn
Heaven or hell
I accept the product
From the revenge that I’ve thrown
The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!
And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes
(And function)
Function is the key
Can’t seem to quench the flame
With the tears from your eyes
Spawning the river
In which you now drown
But as you wade deeper
Seems the less that you’ve learned
And come sweet dry shores
Your dripping and wet
Anguished in pain
Misery you can not forget
The dearest of friends
Who lit your paths way
Are sopping in palms
Retribution for the ashes you’ve made
What once caused the glimmer
Sole light in your life
Leaves you forsaken
Left in the cold
In search of establishing your mind
And what in this world
Had brought you unto
The devil’s hand lashed
Stole it all away from you
Still for time to unwind
Would not alter the past
For the misdeeds that you dealt
They forever altered mind
Everlasting mutation of sense
Forever masking your soul
Standing at glimmers
Seeing a new way to drown
His river a refuge
New reflection to him
Not in the shadows
But still giving light
Gentle breeze and shimmers
Glimpses of a new life
And there in reflection
Emotions battered and torn
Sees this new image
A beast within grasp
Something new to create torment
Or induce a few happy returns
Is this an aftermath
Or the same path to relive
The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!
And I won't make the same mistakes
(Because I know)
Because I know how much time that wastes

Compassion so far behind
Standing at glimmers
Seeing a new way to drown
His river a refuge
New reflection to within
Not in the shadows
But still giving a light
Gentle breeze and shimmers
Glimpses of a new life
And there in reflection
Emotions battered and torn

A beast within grasp
Something new to create torment
Toast to other
Let them all feel the same
