PERHAPS....
Perhaps i should disappear
before i cause more pain
Perhaps I'll make a little cut
bleeding out the same
Perhaps will not stay in this place
but go where i belong
For I cannot take this anguish
everything I do is wrong
Perhaps I might have just said too much
and for this I may be doomed
Perhaps I should end this wrenching nightmare
by slicing a bigger wound
TAKING THEM BACK FROM YOU
Shadows overtake the light
and I am the one to blame
I'm taking back my demons
to shower me in shame
you couldn't have known
it was more than one man could hold
you couldn't have known
my demons would be so bold
and yet, you are very brave
you really did your best
but I'm taking back my shadows now
so you may heal and rest
A HEAVY HEART
I have no right
to cause you pain
but the blood that pours
will forever stain
my heart,my mind,
my body,my soul
my heart cannot pay
its fated toll
heavy will it be
when its time
to be weighed
the scales will tip
my trip unpaid
Why must they weigh your heart against a feather?
Couldn't they find something heavier?
