im back again

with another story on my mind

not much different from the others

still full of pain, still full of cries



but you'll keep reading

though warnings written in blood

they tell you to turn and go home

but no one ever does what they should



so step into my mind

theres no turning back

when my eyes turn to red

and my heart fades to black



ill begin this story

with stories of my pain

once you know the whole truth

you'll never come back again



so many times

through these thin walls

have i heard the screams

have i heard her heart's call



so many times

have i laid trembling in bed

with tear stained pillows

and thoughts of suicide in my head



those times when he screams

and i cry and shake

i wonder how long it will be

before i finally break



ive got someone i love

with every piece of my heart

i try to hide from him the signs

that im falling apart



but i think sometimes he sees

the pain written on my face

when the light fades from his eyes

and his smile becomes displaced



everytime im with him

i dont think about the pain

but everytime i leave him

then begins the rain



now on to a different person

the reason for all my fears

the source of all this screaming

the reason for all these tears



im terrified of what he'll do

when he sees red again

cowering in the corner

i cover my head again



my cell phone sits beside my bed

just in case i need to call

the knife is in the kitchen

just in case i fall



so now these thoughts of running

are running through my head

i play the scenerio in my mind

the car crashes, and im dead



another scene

for you to behold

its me in a closet

its dark and its cold



locked in here

just to get away

to shut out the world

and waste away



or how bout a taste

of a more violent side

with his hands around my neck

and his eyes open wide



he screams uncontrollably

in a red fit of rage

just giving me inspiration

to write another page



now picture his eyes

small, dark and cold

they lie, they decieve,

this game's getting old



like the grinch, his heart

is 2 sizes too small

he seems incapable of loving,

like he doesnt care at all



his mind, now thats twisted

maybe more so than mine

hate, rage and malice

with some darkness interwined



how bout one more nightmare

before i end this rhyme

imagine tensions mounting

pressure building over time



one day the pressure

it all becomes too much

you find me swinging from a tree

my skin ice cold to the touch



now these things are just a fantasy

a lucid dream, you could say

you could make them a reality

that's if you break me someday



but ill try to be stronger

when you scream and break me down

im peeling these layers you've put on me

i will not be your clown



i refuse to let you hurt me,

i refuse to let tears fall

i refuse to let you break me

i refuse to care at all



so here i go, im gone again

never to come back

hope your happy, im leaving you

you and your heart of black
