Broken InsidePain,
Frustration,
Fear,
Anger,
Distrust,
These things consume me,
Cause me to feel different than I am
They eat away at me on the inside,
Changing how I think and feel

It's hard to be uplifting,
When all you ever do is fall
It's impossible to be there for others,
When you need to be there for yourself

My mind wanders aimlessly,
Seeking answers that continue to elude
This world is slowly breaking me,
And I no longer know what to do
It's so very, very hard to fight,
When all you feel is broken inside

Cold, impersonating life
I see nothing in your dead eyes,
You are not really alive

Uncaring, unaffected by the world
I mean nothing more to you,
Than this mound of earth

Unfeeling, in thought and deed
It makes me sometimes wonder,
If you even bleed

Aloof, all alone in your mind,
I think that you belong,
In a very different time

Broken, something inside,
That you need,
Just doesn't fit right

You are nothing more than a statue,
A human fakery
And that gleam that is in your eyes,
Is just a painted sheen
You don't feel!
You're not real!
You don't know what it means!
To really live...
You wouldn'
Counting the TearsI know that you miss me,
I can see you standing there
You keep looking for me,
Even though you know I'm not here
I see you look into the night,
Oh, how I wish that I could guide,
All the steps that you take...
But the only time I can come to you,
Is when you're not awake...
Even though I'm gone,
My heart still breaks...

Don't...forget...
Don't give in to your fears,
I will always love you,
And I am counting the tears,
As they fall down your face,
Oh, how I wish I could erase,
All of your pain...
But I am no longer with you,
Only my memory remains...

You are far stronger,
Than I ever knew you to be
I wish I had seen this
Heart Dying in WinterWhen a heart dies in winter,
It feels like it has been splintered,
And the pieces just melt away
There is no room for conversation,
The excuses have already been made
Some might say...
That the heart deserved this,
That the love just wasn't worth it,
But that doesn't make the pain change!

You left me standing there!
With a stunned expression on my face
How could you not be aware,
Of the direction my life had to take?
I was so overcome right then,
That a smile I could not fake
I kept thinking that this must be...
Just a mistake...
And then I heard the ice crack, as my heart began to break!

This pain is like a landslide!
An a
The SoundHow...does one know if he is strong?
And how...do you know if fighting,
Is right, or if it's wrong?

I! Have been holding on so long!
This life is so real!
I never thought I would feel,
All this pain inside!
It is the story, the story of my life,
So many nightmares, so many sleepless nights...!
I! I cannot break now,
Because if I do, there is no way out...
And so I cry...and my heart breaks at the sound...

It is the,
Sound of my joy,
The sound of my pain,
And, this will never change
It is the,
Sound of my laughter,
The sound of my tears,
These things will remain...
The sound, you see!
It's the rhythm that surrounds me...
In My VeinsI am learning,
That with you there is no half-way
It's a small price to pay,
For this feeling in my veins
Searing deep inside me,
Such passionate pain
Tearing,
And scaring,
All I was away...

You ask me if it's forever,
And I tell you that I would never,
Let you go
My mind is reeling from the flame,
That you cause in me everyday
Let you go?
There's just no way...

I remember asking,
You what love was
And you said that it is something,
You can never get enough of
That feeling in your veins,
The burning never goes away
Tearing,
And scaring,
All you were away...

You ask me if it's forever,
And I tell you that I would neve
It Is TimeIt is time,
To break away,
From all the pain,
Of yesterday
Time to live,
Time to breathe,
Time to feel,
Time to see

It is time,
To scream out loud
I want to hear,
Everyone shout
Time for joy,
Time for tears,
Time for hope,
To erase your fears

It is time!
To believe!
That this life!
Is not so empty!
Time for laughter!
Time to share!
Time to hold on!
Time to care!

It is time,
To say hello
Time to let it all out,
Let love flow
Time for patience,
Time for dreams,
No matter what,
Tomorrow brings

It is time,
To see your face
A lingering image,
Time can't erase
Time for teaching,
Time to learn
A time for which I
AlwaysLet me tell you a secret,
About the way you make me feel
The things that you do to me,
Sometimes it's so unreal...

Things like:

Holding my hand in the dark,
And wiping away my tears
Standing beside me through my pain,
And you've stood with me all these years
Telling me sweet nothings,
That I will never forget
And telling you I love you,
Is the one thing I'll never regret

I will love you always,
Forever and ever it's true,
And if I can do it with these two hands,
Then I will do it for you!
I will move all the mountains,
If you ask it of me,
Because I know you love me,
And I know just what that means

Let me tell you a secre
F.E.A.R.A blood colored sunrise,
That you will never forget
Brings to your mind a person,
That you have not yet met
Visions cloud your mind,
You see them all the time...
The visions make you see things,
That you wish you did not know
But no matter how far you push them away,
They only seem to grow
Be careful where you step,
And watch out where you go!

And that's how you know!

It's fear...
That drives you!
It's fear...
That divides you!
Fear of the unexpected,
Fear of the unknown
Fear of everything you see,
Fear of what you have been shown...

It feels like an knife blade,
Has been rammed into your gut
But you ignore all the pain
Listen to the SilenceIn that moment...
Between love and hate,
When everything just fades away
In that moment...
Between passion and pain,
Between secrets and shame
In that moment...
Between tomorrow and today...
Lies silence...
       (silence)
        (silence)

Have you ever...
Looked deep into her eyes,
Fallen into the abyss,
Before you realized,
That you were lost in the silence?

(Just listen to...the silence...)

I have heard that silence means,
The absence of sound,
But if this is true,
Then tell me,
Why is it so loud,
And why does it drown...?

In that moment...
The Ashes of YesterdayLightning rages,
Thunder crashes,
Look at how I am shaking,
As I sift through the ashes,
Of all my yesterdays...

In the ashes,
I see,
A haunting panorama,
A smoldering tapestry

It is one of lies!
And deceit!
A burning reminder!
Of who I used to be!

Thank God,
This is no longer me...

Lightning rages,
Thunder crashes,
Look at how I am shaking,
As I sift through the ashes,
Of all my yesterdays...

In the ashes,
I see,
All the things I've been,
And a list of all my sins

That list is long!
And the memories strong!
A reminder of all the places...
That I never belonged!

Thank God,
I am no longer alone...

SupernovaYou always tell me I'm handsome,
And I always say you're wrong,
So I thought I'd settle this right now,
By writing you this song

You are so beautiful,
I can't take my eyes off you,
And it doesn't matter what you ask,
I'd do anything for you
Like a supernova,
I am blinded by your smile,
And all I can do is love you,
For the rest of my life...!

You are my supernova,
More brilliant everyday,
It's true
I am just a pale, pale candle,
When I am compared to you
You are my supernova,
The brightest thing in my sky
You are my supernova,
And without your light,
I'd die

You are so beautiful,
And I love to see you laugh,

WickedlyAll their wicked words,
Cut me to the core
I have heard them all too many times,
And I can't take them anymore
All their dark designs,
And all their evil deeds,
Sicken me all the more,
Because of their wicked greed

I'm glad I don't live my life...
So wickedly

Their wicked lies!
They deprive!
Me of my sanity
It's all I ever hear from them,
And now I refuse to believe!
I wonder how it feels,
To be depraved and diseased?
I wonder how it feels,
To live so wickedly?

Their days are so full,
Of such wicked thoughts
I wonder why I fight anymore,
Sometimes it seems I'm not
Their sinful reassurance,
Just sends me into a rage

Stop  Stop

I know you're just a little thing,
And you don't understand
You just lie there,
All the while holding onto my hand
I want to teach you,
Things you need to know,
Things you need to live,
Things you need to grow...

Stop and always listen,
Before you deign to speak
Make sure you've heard what's said,
Before violence you wreak
Stop and think it over,
Before it's all said and done
Be careful of the things you do,
Because you can't change a single one

Stop before you give in,
To all the pain you feel
I know that it will hurt so bad
That it won't even seem real
Stop and always notice,
That other people feel the
Let It Be MeFor everyone,
Who has ever cried,
Felt lost and alone,
On a quiet night
Who felt their prayers,
Would be unanswered,
Who didn't think that,
There were second chances
For everyone,
Who has felt afraid,
Unable to forgive themselves,
For choices made

Let it be me (let it be me),
Who helps you see (who helps you see)
Let me wash away your sorrow,
And your grief
I will stand (yes I will stand),
When you can't,
And all you have to do,
Is take my hand (take my hand)

For everyone,
Who has been used,
Tossed away, abandoned,
And confused
Who lives in shadows,
And can't see the sky,
Who feels so degraded,
That they want to die
For everyone,
Who loses

This Is Who I AmYou don't have to like me,
You don't have to understand
You don't have to agree with everything I say,
This is just, just who I am
You feel threatened,
And you feel abused
But lashing out and and attacking me,
Only gives my words their proof!

I...
Don't care what you think
And I...
Just want to make you blink!

This is who I am!
And every day that passes,
Is another one where I stand!
You think that you can change me,
But I know that you can't!
I keep my mind open,
Because this is who I am

Raising your voice and screaming,
It really does you no good,
Especially when you aim it at me,
Just like I knew you would

Do It Again   Do It Again

I swear I'm not lying,
I love you so
It hurts me to leave,
Every time I have to go
I watch you in the mirror,
As you fade away...

My mind is still thinking,
All about you now
I am so in to you,
That there is no way out
I just wanna raise my voice and shout!

That I am...!

I'm gonna do it!
Do it again!
So won't you open up the window,
Please let me in!
I'm gonna do it, do it!
Do it again!
Baby I won't break you,
But I might just make you bend...

Cause I'm gonna do it again...

Your body just sends a thrill,
Straight to my heart
I know if I didn't have you,
I would just fall apart!

EverBlaze: Symbiotic StasisHidden away,
Memories fade,
Lost, forgotten

Entwined, combined,
No true sense,
Of yours and mine

Each one, existing,
Separate,
But not apart

Who was I?
Who am I?
Who, will I be?

Drowning in static limbo,
Pain, my only symbol,
I have never known relief

Fear submerged for ages,
While deep inside,
Fire rages

And it,

Burns on...

But rather than consuming,
The fire is cleansing,
And I remember who I was

Each one, existing,
And both still living,
And both will live on

In symbiotic stasis,
Providing all the basis,
For why I have never been alone

I have always,
Without truly knowing,
Had me

Addicted   Addicted

What's wrong with me,
Isn't such a bad thing
I've got this addiction you see,
It invades all of my dreams

The face of an angel,
Is always on my mind
That face is yours,
And I see it all the time

Only you can give me,
Just what I need...
Cause I don't need needles,
To make me bleed...!

I'm so addicted to you,
And you know it's true,
Nobody else can make me,
Feel like you do
So addicted to you,
As I live and breathe,
You are the only thing,
That I will ever need

So won't you give me something,
For this pain inside?
Cause every minute without you,
Is a minute that I've died

To Be Alive  To Be Alive

It's a great day,
To live and breathe
It's a great day,
To open my eyes and see
It's a great day,
To hold someone so close,
It's a great day,
To be with the ones I love the most

Every day's a good day,
If you look at it right,
Every day's a good day,
So keep that in mind...

Today is a great day to be alive!

Alive in love!
Alive in pain!
Living through these things,
Is what makes us change!
Alive in hope!
Alive in faith!
Alive with passion,
And filled with grace!
It's not so hard to be satisfied...
Because today is a great day!
To be alive...

It's a great day,

SmileI once wrote "I believe in innocence, because it makes me smile, and I hope to see it so very soon, on the face of my child."

My hope, my wish, was granted, fulfilled in a way that makes me smile even more, everyday.

It astonishes me that no matter how bad I feel, Taylor's smile completely turns my day around, I simply cannot help but smile back at her when she smiles at me.

And that got me to thinking. Why is it so hard for us to smile? Smiling is an automatic reflex, it's built into us from the day we are born.

The answer is simple, we don't smile because we choose not to.

Sounds horrible, right? That's because it is. So many of us are

I Am

:iconthat-krimzon-stain:

I am, broken,
On the inside where you can't see
With every day, that I live,
I exist so painfully

I am, bitter,
At what this world has done to me
Sometimes I wonder, why it's so hard,
For me to just live happily

I am, frustrated,
At all the things I see
I don't understand, why people don't change,
Why people just don't believe

I am, angry,
At myself for the things I've done
And I know that I'll spend, the rest of my life
Trying to pay back everyone

I am, afraid,
There is so much I don't understand
No matter how hard, that I look,
Sometimes I fail to see the plan

I am, pain,
In mind, body, and soul
That pain has defined, who I am,
And I refuse to let it go

I am, confused,
It's hard to know what to choose
But I know I have to make a choice,
Because there is too much I stand to lose

I am, not the answers,
That inside I know you seek
And though I'm not the answer, at least I know,
That I'm not part of the disease

I am, compassion,
I really know just how you feel
I know that the, monsters in your mind,
Sometimes seem so real

I am, a love,
That encompasses everything
Who you are, and where you're from,
Makes no difference to me

I am...
All of this and more!(All of this and more!)
Even though sometimes I don't know!
What I'm here for
I am!(I am!)
The sum of all my years!
The sum of all my tears,
Upon reflection, everything is clear
I am!(I am!)
More than I deserve to be!
I am a walking revolution,
Changing everyone I meet!
I am!
All of this and more!
Even though I have moments,
In which I'm really not sure
I am...
All that you see!
When the dust settles, all that matters,
Is that I am me

Sometimes, it's a good idea to reflect on your life, and see what makes you who you are. It's not easy, to look deeply into yourself, to see what makes you tick.

Everyone is afraid of truth, especially truth about themselves.

Don't be, that truth is who you are. Embrace it.

I had stop and cry there because it is true about myself. I feel as if no matter how hard I try the things I've done will come back and I will spend my life trying to pay everyone back and I am afraid because while I might be mature and ahead of my friends I am below everyone older than me and there is so much I don't understand and that scares me to no end. :heart: Thank you for writing this

The problem is, later in life, you become the lies, and everyone but you can see it, and then all you have is you, and you won't even know who you are.

And then you have nothing.
