Gone

I done waiting for your lies
and soaking in falsehoods.
I've learned the art of Good-bye.
Trust me, It's not misunderstood.

I forgive you for the truth,
The one you'll never say.
Just keep blaming youth,
That'll get you far you one day.

You won't even show up for this Good-Bye,
And I need someone to lash out on!
Coward, come face up to your Lies!
So that tomorrow I can be gone.

Time

It's always so unexpected
It can't happen to us,
Though its inevitable,
We still try to deny it.

 Time is fading
And we don't even notice
Till it's run out
And were left broken.

The ground below
Is in a frozen state,
But not for us.
Or so we think.

Then his time comes.
Reality hits.
This is inevitable.
This is real.

He's gone.
Time has ended.
But it rolls on for us
How unfair!

Stranger

Hello Stranger.
I see we choose the same place,
to cause the same danger.
The change is never in the face,
It's always in the break.
See its just a vicious cycle,
that keeps our smiles so fake.
This game is so primal,
but yet again we face off.
I brace for the next betrayal,
But as usual, you just scoff.
I believe if I stay Loyal,
That all this will change.
But oh what a fool's heart
To think something so deranged.
For our minds are clear set apart.
Goodbye Stranger,
I'm done with the uphill race.

The One

I've learned people come and people go
And not too many stick around.
I've learned this can turn a person cold
And cause too much misery.

But I've also learned. . .
Not to let the negative define you.
That it's easy to give up. .
But more fulfilling to move forward.

So many people just walk away,
And I use to just shut down
Every single fucking time,
But not this time. . .

This time, I realize some people
are just that way.
Some people just aren't worth the time,
But they'll be others.

Life is full of twist and turns,
Doubts and plenty of confusion.
Don't get me wrong,
Having walls are fine.

But eventually you'll find,
the one one willing to stay.
The one that is patient,
and see's past those carefully built walls.

Do not lose hope,
but stay selective.
So many will leave,
But its worth the one that stays

Stranger

When we meet. . .
Sparks flew through the air,
The intensity began to flare.
In this hopeless attraction,
You where quite the distraction!

As time went by. . .
We faced quite the attack,
but you keep me on track.
A friend in the darkest of times,
But a devil in disguise.

The affair did indeed occur. . .
I suppose to assume love over lust,
was a such a foolish waste of trust!
All the lies just to get inside,
and then forget to say good-bye

The "I told you so"s . . .
I can no longer defend you,
As you say I'm untrue.
To turn you back after all this,
Shows me what I have so blindly missed
How they were so painfully correct,
You nothing but an egotistical mess

Hello Stranger. . .
I really don't know you,
Nor do i really want to.
You see this "amazing" guy,
Made me cry (One too many times)

Waiting

I'm waiting for someone to save me,
But what if he doesn't come?
What if he doesn't believe,
this mess can be undone?

Tonight I continue to dance with strangers.
Make believing that he's superman
Foolish ignoring the dangers
Trapped without a plan

Cant he hear my cries?
I need him,
before it all dies!
The light is starting to dim. . .

Cruel Game

Could you not see me breaking down;
Or did you just not care at all?
Were you gonna watch me as I drown;
Or was your stuff already in a u-haul?

Lies piled upon lies became devastating!
How could Love, be just another Line?
This game of yours became suffocating!
Only faded memories, After all this time?

How could I be such an ignorant fool?
And How could you just be, so Cruel?

Manic Depressive

That manic state is reoccurring,
While numb feelings close the gaps.
The heartbreak is indeed incurring,
As I wait for the collapse . . .
Indecisive on the chance to leave,
While time is caving in upon me.
Do I simply choose to deceive;
Or stop trying to flee?
The answer isn’t so black and white!
Even after all this time,
It’s still quite a fright!

Holding On

Don't ya ever just get tired,
Of the dial done ringing in your ear?
Does being alone,
Ever become overwhelming?
The scars so carefully hidden,
Do they really help the mental pain?

The tone is numbing now.
Being alone has become the norm.
Pain is only weakness.

Short answers rely,
on what's left unsaid
Not so much a cry for help,
As a Song of Strength,
Of Holding On

Those Nights (Alternate Ending to Faded Memories)

Shooting stars and brown guitars
Autumn leaves floating softly
Gray eyes, Purple shoes
Happy melodies, pink pick
Driving through the night
With no real destination
The cool beach air,
On a midnight stroll
Just dreaming and believing
Such crazy butterflies.
Memories,
That shall not fade
