Falling Star

before you were big
you were small & nothing
before you had a voice
you were ignored
you're just a falling star
that is all you are
you never said anything
so how did you get this far?
before you could be seen
you were invisible
before you kept in touch
you were so far gone
you're just a falling star
that is all you are
you never did anything
so how did you get that far?

Clown

I follow you around
like I'm your shadow
until you decide
that you want me away
I play the clown
when you're around
I wear the crown
when you want me
I call you mine
now that I think of you
you will be mine
I'm still not done with you
you see me frown
then you turn around
you let me down
when you taunt me

You Said

you said that you loved me
you said that you cared for me
you said that you would come around
you said that you would never fuck around
you said that I was the chosen one
you said that I was the only one
you said that you would never lie to me
you said that you would never leave me
you said that you would come back
you said that this wouldn't last long
you said that you would never abuse me
you said that you would never betray me
but you did

The Depths

so far deep in this place that I’ve tried so hard to avoid
so far deep in space, way beyond the void
I travel faster in this downward path, I cannot escape
there is nothing that I can hold onto, nothing here to save me
as I keep going down
further down this hole
darkness surrounds me
down, leaving this helpless soul
I cannot tell if i’m still alive or if it is night or day
from right here it looks as though nothing shines this way
I cannot see if the sky is blue or if it is just dark gray
from inside it looks just like nothing at all has changed
as I keep going down
further down this hole
darkness surrounds me
down, leaving this hopeless world

Pain

pretty picture
pretty face
petty lecture
pity fate
I don’t feel no pain
I wont heal your pain
I don’t feel no pain
I won’t do it again
pretty picture
precious face
infectious laughter
special place
you don’t feel no pain
you won’t heal my pain
you don’t feel no pain
you won’t see me again

My Soul
08:12
|
|

my soul is here to stay
I know because I can feel
your eyes just stare blind
my soul is yours to take
I can feel it in my heart
my will is yours
my soul is open
it reaches out to the sky
and falls like a flower
why do birds sing
when the sun is shining bright?
why does the pain sting
so sharp as a knife?
my soul is broken
it fell and hit the ground
never made a sound
my soul has spoken
I hear your heart beat so loud
all the way from this cloud
my soul has wandered
still looking for a place
my heart has decayed

Confusion
03:28
|
|
||
|
why am I here
with nothing to hold?
it’s all too unclear
puzzles to unfold
delusion
confusion
nothing’s sincere
there’s truth to be told
can anybody hear
my thoughts to be sold?
illusion
conclusion

Voices

I am all alone
in this place inside my mind
I am all alone
in this world trying to find
some kind of answer
to that question from inside
lies and secrets can reveal exactly
what i’ve tried to hide
oh no, I want to
but no, I don’t need to
oh yeah, I crave it
but now I know I can live without it
every chance I had
to free myself & break away
more came along
and it just got in my way
there I was
still completely out of place
I lost control
the moment I saw the look on your face
oh no, I want you
but no, I don’t need you
oh yes, I must have you and you know
I never want to lose you

Empty

I need somewhere to go
somewhere I won't be found
I need some peace of mind
with nobody else around
I need to find some way
a way to spend my time
I need to leave this place
in quest to ease my mind
I'd like to climb a tree
all the way to outer space
I'd be so very happy
to leave this dreadful mess
I'd like to look straight down
from way up in the blue sky
I'd make gentle rain come down
it's my special wave goodbye

Realization
04:45

everyone lies
everyone hides
no one decides
everyone dies
I realize
we’re not alive
my real eyes
show no surprise
I realize
I’m not your prize
my real eyes
show nothing inside
everyone cries
everyone dies

A Perfect End
06:27
|
|
||
|
not so pure, nor crystal clear
pretty sure the end is near
there is no cure, can’t stop the tears
no other way than to face my fears
not so bright, nor crystal clear
pretty sure the end is here
shed some light, I cannot see
if I must leave, be there for me
when our time comes to fade away
will we rise or descend?
when our time comes to break away
will there really be a perfect end?
