Put Those Thoughts To Bed General Tso

put those thoughts to bed,
you're thinking too much she said,
it's not about a prince and a princess,
it could be so much worse than this.

she grabbed me by the neck,
and put her lips to mine,
with sincerity she turned and said,
don't be thinking the worst again.

but I'm crying cause i feel like,
my life's been ripped in two,
the heart within me is bleeding,
and I don't know what to do,
I'm desperate for you baby,
and my soul is crying out,
I can't stop loving you.

now a day has gone by,
another one to follow,
a week becomes a month,
a day into a year,
I'm wondering if she'll come back,
but all I hear is this echoing...

I'm crying cause I feel like,
my life's been ripped in two,
the heart within me is bleeding,
and I don't know what to do,
I'm desperate for you baby,
and my soul is crying out,
I can't stop loving you.

I've surrendered my life,
without question or appeal,
and I'm done trying,
to convince me it wasn't real,
my heart has scabbed over,
but the pain has been reborn,
I'm dying to hold you,
I'm dying to hold you once again...

Spend A Roll of Quarters At The Dollar Store

I can hear Your voice echoing in my ears,
But I have nothing to say,
I'll quit sugarcoating everything,
I'll quit sugarcoating every bit of this.

You need to shoot straight,
And forget, forget it,
Why aren't you like the rest,
Prove me wrong,
Show me Your worth,
Show me that I should let go.

I'll let You in,
If You'll give me something in return.

What makes You think,
I'm who You think I am?
Do You even know me at all?
I'll justify my failures if I have to,
But letting You in,
Is the hardest thing I've ever had to do.

Jesus, Jesus,
Precious, Jesus...
I'll let You in,
I'll let You in,
Jesus, Jesus,
Precious, Jesus...
I'm broken, I'm hurt,
In Your eyes, I'm perfect.

Return Aftermarket Kaleidoscope Lenses to Destribution Center

Before you open your mouth,
Make sure you have your facts straight,
Your words carry more weight than you may realize,
And your disciples are following you straight to hell.

The scene is set,
Careful what you say,
Bite your tongue if you must,
What you have to say,
Might not be as important as you think.

You're not willing to hold it in,
You have to be the center of attention,
Inappropriate meets cynicism,
You've done all you can to fool them,
And now you're leading them into a chasm...
...their own destruction.

Your pride,
You're not willing to give up your rights,
But you never had any to begin with,
Your mind,
Has lead you to believe,
You can't be wrong, you're never wrong.

Every Attempt to Stop The Bleeding Has Failed Until Now

I guess I'm in the wrong,
Why would you make me choose?
You've put me in the place,
You don't understand,
You don't understand,
You've forced my hand.

Please give me the reasons why,
Oh God,
I can't say I feel worthy of life,
My thoughts turn to words,
My words to action,
I'm alone,
Completely alone in my decision.

Stop,
My heart is bleeding,
Slowly beating to a...
Stop,
You must know where this is coming from,
You practically put the pen in my hand.

In my darkest hour I've turned upward,
I feel so alone,
So far from the truth,
My heart has come to an abrupt halt,
But it's starting up again,
It's starting up again... (X2)

Je Crois en Amour Avec Tout Mon Coeur

Are You really there?
Listening to my thoughts within thoughts?
How confused I must be,
Consumed in every day living,
When the important things in life,
Are obsolete,
We are perceived to be,
Beyond saving.

It's not my job to save you,
I'm nothing more than a man,
I bleed,
I bleed,
I bleed,
When you cut me.

The trouble I have with you,
It seems far from tangible,
I can't seem to wrap my brain around it,
You are everywhere,
Yet so attentive,
Give me Your Heart,
So tender, passionate, and strong,
I yearn to hold You close.

There doesn't seem to be,
A single word to describe You,
Everything...
...falls short.

Barry Saxson Got What Was Coming To Him

Does it ever get old,
Playing the game you play?
How does it feel,
To be in your shoes,
They all deserve it,
According to you...

Give it your all,
Put up or shut up,
Don't point that finger in my face,
When you're no different,
There's no difference between you and me.

Sin rots you from the inside,
And you don't see how it's taken root,
You're so lost in your disillusion,
Take a step back and find the truth.

Selfishness is not your friend,
And all you have are your insecurities,
Covering your lies won't last long,
It won't last at all.

They'll catch up with you,
And strip you completely.

The Kitty Suffers From Epitaxes

You've had your last laugh at my expense,
I'm shutting you off, I'm shutting you out,
Your ignorance is merely arrogance,
A poisonous fragrance...

You have all the answers within your grasp,
So unwilling to reach out and grab hold of the truth.

When the your world is collapsing around you,
You will be lost and alone,
When you reach out no one will have you,
So let go of your ignorance,
Let go of your whole existence.

Your last chance is approaching,
It won't be long before you're alone,
I've done all I can,
It's coming sooner than you think.

Straying From The Right Course of Reality

You've really outdone yourself this time,
Putting up with no one,
And leaving them all in ruin.
Have you ever thought about anyone,
Other than yourself,
Will you ever get past the image in the mirror?

Your time has come, your time has come,
And you're not willing to get past,
Yourself...

Leave them all in ruin,
Leave them all to perish.
Nothing left in your wake,
Nothing left but shame.

You have done this so well,
Without skipping a beat,
You will make them suffer like before,
You know who you are,
You know who you are.

Only The Beginning To What Would Seem The Source of It All

Don't you even dare,
Don't even claim to know me,
You've never taken the time for anyone,
You're so stuck in your ways you can't even see,
The blinders are set, custom made to fit,
Your picture-perfect life,
And you don't ever care who you hurt.
I'm not done loving you,
But I'm tired of carrying you,
Don't point your judgmental finger at me,
I can only endure so much,
And now it's time for you to find out what it's like,
To lose everything you've ever known.

Your situation is so bad,
No one has ever loved you,
You can't help but leech off people,
You are the smell that drives them away,
You don't even deserve these words, see,
I want to scream them in your ears,
And burn them in your eyes,
But it's not worth the effort,
So figure everything out on your own,
Poor misguided...
Self-righteous,
Self-martyr.

A Word of Warning

I can destroy cities,
Though I can't hold a candle to some,
But I can do more damage than most,
And I'm ready for you to know the truth.

A word of warning,
You might never know,
The worth of your words,
The strength behind them,
to bring on destruction,
You're own is in the works.

My very essence has brought forth,
The reign of kings and queens,
It has also brought the destruction of worlds,
Kingdoms and nations,
Until the world comes to an end,
I will be on a path to exalt and destroy,
Anything, Everything,
All you hold dear.

You will use me,
Because you always have,
Cheaters and Preachers,
You're not exception,
And I will never grow tired of it,
I am eternal, I am immortal,
I am eternal, I am immortal.

Careful Who You Ignore (Poetry)

You can't hear the pain in my voice,
Because you've never given me the time of day,
Your apologies wouldn't fall short,
If they ever left your lips,
You don't even notice how much I've praised you,
Because you are too stuck on yourself.

Maybe I've got it all wrong,
You probably heard my story,
And made the same assumptions,
I'm just another fake,
That needs to learn a lesson.

I don't think you realize the gravity of your absence,
You haven't looked my way but maybe twice,
And you think you have it all figured out,
But you're wrong.
I wish you could hear my story from my mouth,
But you won't have any of it,
Because you already know it all.

If only one kind word would escape you,
I might just make it through this,
But you won't give me the time of day,
Because you're just too busy,
As I slip away, into nothing,
Maybe you'll realize,
But as you hear the news,
You just think I wanted just anyone's attentions...

...the thing is, all I wanted was yours.

One Finger Pointing At You, One Finger Pointing At Me

Comfort only goes so far,
If you're not willing to move,
Your situation will stay the same,
If you're not willing to change,
Your life will never be what it was intended.

Get up, get up,
You are only hurting yourself,
Comfort will not remain,
Comfort will only betray,
Get up, and make something of yourself.

Why aren't you willing to make a move,
You have nothing to lose,
Slowly slipping into appathy,
Your time is running out my dear.

It's time to do something with yourself,
If you aren't willing to take a risk,
You will lose everything,
You will be lost to it...

Comfort betrays
