Sleep my dear child
And try not to grow
I’ll find you a safe place
Where the wind softly blowsSleep my dear child
Your heart is pure gold
I will keep you safe
Until you grow oldSleep my dear child
Before the fire is burned
Remember life is precious
Every day is a page to be turnedSleep my dear child
I love you so
I’ll find you a safe place
Where the wind softly blows
Senseless
She thinks I’m funny when I’m serious
Thinks I’m sane when I’m delirious
To her, it really makes no sense

With words like knives
Each syllable, a razor blade
And eyes like black holes
Still I won’t be afraid
Pretty Little You
it must be nice
to be perfect, to
widen the eyes
of the loveliest men
and rarely feel a thing, to
never see ripples
or veins
or stubble
upon sun-kissed legs
that you’ve barely
touched, to
hardly wear makeup
and walk out the door
all composed
all aglow
smiling perfect
porcelain white, to
never get taunted
or teased as a kid
or ever feel hurt
for something you
can’t help,
oh
it must be peachy
to live in your shoes
knowing what
you were born with
will protect you,for now

You want to see me die
In your head, I call your name
And I see you turn away
And you won’t ever be the same
You want to see me die
In your head, you play a game
And I see you burn away
Slowly you will fade away
"Not everyone in your life has a right to know how you’re suffering. My pain and struggle is my burden and mine alone to carry. Just leave me alone."

"If people cannot love you for all the things that you aren’t, then they don’t deserve to hate you for all the things that you are."

Running in Circles
I say that I hate you
That I’m so over that
Running in circles and
Then I come right back
You say it’s my fault
Could you be more exact
We’re running in circles
They say opposites attract
But I can’t stay here
Another hour or day
And I can’t wait here
For you to find a way
Cause I can’t stay here
When I see you running
And I can’t wait here
For what’s never coming
We’re running in circles
I say that I’m sorry
But I am not to blame
Running in circles till
I’m drowning in shame
You say it’s my fault
For all that we became
You’re running in circles
You’ll always be the same
But I can’t stay here
Another hour or day
And I can’t wait here
For you to find a way
Cause I can’t stay here
When I see you running
And I can’t wait here
For what’s never coming
But I can’t stay here
Another hour or day
And I can’t wait here
For you to find a way
Cause I can’t stay here
When I see you running
And I can’t wait here
For what’s never coming
We’re running in circles…
more, most, mostest
I never understood how
My world could come apart
But losing sight of you then was
All it took to break my heart
And I took for granted
All the words you’d never say
And I can’t believe that
You’re not here with me today
But I’ll tell you this
I’m alright, and I’ll say it loud
And I’ll tell you this
That I think you’d be proud
So I’ll tell you this
Just this once, and like before
And I’ll tell you this
I loved you then
Now I love you more

You can hold the reigns
But there’s no tug left in this war
No resistance in the remains
Of the woman you loved before
You can hold your head up
But there’s no truth in your eyes
No humanity in the remains
Of the angel I loved, it’s all died
You can keep the memories
But there’s no sweet refrain in view
No resemblance in the remains
Of the devil I came to regard as you
