It's sad to watch your chance expire
I've waited so long and now I'm too late
It hurts when I think about it
I've lost what I've been dreaming of
...

If I could rule the world I would love to see the people drown.
If they all burned in hell they would only scream for sound.
It would be quite a sight to watch them burn to death.
All the ones who hurt me just to waste another breath.
...

I continue to hurt and I don't want to
But now I even dream of her with you
I'm a failure at life with no consolation
I'm worthless and foolish with little to do
...

It's weird how things can happen so suddenly.
One minute your looking at the clouds,
The next your trying to get off the ground.
I see myself in the clouds,
...

I didn't tell you and didn't need to
You already had an idea
I know how you see me yet it doesn't hurt
I'll be anything for you
...

Me? What have I done?
All I ever do is try.
Why must you yell at me?
Are you mad that I won't die?
...

Tell me right now what I have done wrong
Since that is what seems you believe in so strong.
Have I beat you and hurt you upon the floor?
Slapped you and smacked you to speak no more?
...

When I am mad I'm just sad with anger
I feel as if my life has been left on a hanger
I stay at home with no where to go
And I feel lost wandering to and fro
...

I hate being singled out
And some one put my friends in doubt
And my anger disperses at wrong times
But all I can do is rhyme
...

The Lord knows who didn't do it and knows who did
But for the one that did it may God forbid
That when they would confess
That there would be no stress
...

I'm gonna tell the truth no matter what
I'll stick to my word for it is not corrupt
Whether they believe me or not
I'll tell the truth while it's hot
...

Lost in the shadows are my dreams.
I search frequently but it always seems
That no matter how hard I try
My flower of hope will wither and die.
...

Sitting down while the world is turning, watching pictures pass me by.

Can't get up, my mind is burning, water streaming from my eyes.
...

Don't talk to me. No, I said don't talk to me.
I've already wasted too much time with you.
Don't talk to me. Just leave me alone.
I don't need to give you an explanation.
...

As the clouds darken the sky starts to cry
The ground moistens for once it was dry
The sky is sad for it has something to say
But everyone near just turns away
...

It's seven twenty-five, I don't feel alive and nor do I feel departed
I'm sitting at home all alone as if I'm empty hearted
I am unable to sense anyone else's being
For I am dull and have no feeling
...

I used to think I was normal and everything was the same
Until I came to realize that cold blood runs through my veins
Although my heart's been pumping I've always felt rather cold
Then the thought that i was normal became a story never told
...

It's raining right now and I feel sad
But at the same time I feel better not bad
It's dark and wet but this period is brief
And although no one's around I feel some relief
...

It sometimes feels like I'm in heaven's arms
But then it feels like I've been thrust to earth
But in recent times I've been under charms
I was so gloomy but now in rebirth
...

Even though I have had a rough childhood
I can still take the time to live my life
I might not do some of the things I should
But that's just from being stuck in the strife
...
