A Long Walk And A Short Drop

as i walk alone in the night

searching for the light

i try with all my might

try to make things right



in my fucking mind



i begin to let go

of all the things i used to know

but the madness seems to grow

i get afraid its gonna show

because it fills me so



its always too unkind



because im wound up so tight

like im ready for a fight

but in the middle of the night

my soul takes flight

it reaches new height



until finally i find



a new place inside

where the nothingness hides

the bad thoughts died

and god though i tried

my soul cried for a guide:



"save me from the pain"



now i can no longer pretend

as im searching for the end

all i need is a friend

to help my worries mend

to believe me and defend



im not really insane



to try and remain near

to stay through the fears

to wipe away the tears

to hear what i cant hear

and though the fire it sears



my skin and leaves stains



they will all wash away

as long as you stay

i will always find a way

so i constantly pray

as im making my way



through the pouring rain



i sigh.....

as i ask my self: "why do i

always seem to cry

and think of ways to die?"

because i just cant lie

when my soul starts to fly high



and i leave this place



i hope to find a better one

a little place in the sun

where i can maybe have some fun

but when its all said and done

i find there's no where left to run



and im left in disgrace



and so i accept the blame

and all the dirty shame

that comes from playing the game

though all the shit stays the same

i watch my life go up in flames



and i quicken my pace



like im always trying to get away

from a world thats turning grey

from the violence of the fray

i try to keep them at bay

but it seems that people wont stay



OUT OF MY FUCKING FACE!!
