Strangers
do you wish we were strangers
never lovers nor friends?
would trading all the memories
be worth being happy again?
would not knowing your touch
keep us out of this rut?
or were we destined to be
and destroy the peace?
if we were strangers
would you wish to start anew?
without the scars we have now
would it we be a dream come true?
or was our destiny always laid out
no way out but through pain?
do you wish we were strangers?
because sometimes I do
Darkness
I pick the blade up
Slide it through my skin
I watch the ruby rise
A grin forms as the misery fades
The demons are screaming
My soul is aflame
My mind is a madhouse
In me the darkness reigns
I swish the water in my mouth
My stomach groans for more
I take my hand and count my ribs
No, it's not enough
The demons are screaming
My soul is aflame
My mind is a madhouse
In me the darkness reigns
Promises
You promised it was over
That you would stay sober
Yet there you are
Stumbling back to the bar
You promised you would quit
Measuring your thighs when you sit
But you still skip those meals
Saying you like how the hunger feels
You promised you were better
No longer having to wear only sweaters
But those cuts are new
Like on paper you drew
You promised you were done
As you put down the gun
Yet you knew you couldn't be free
From the darkness that is me
Hey Little Girl
Hey little girl
How'd you end up here?
With your chubby, fat face
You're such a disgrace
You were doing so good
Fasting just like you should
Hey little girl
How'd you end up here?
With you wrists a mess
Acting like it's stress
Saying the blades "taunted"
Knowing it's what you wanted
Hey little girl
How'd you end up here?
Being a waste of space
Not even wanting to see your own face
Thinking crying will help
When no one will hear you yelp
Hey little girl
How'd you end up here?
Wishing to just disappear
With no one wanting you near
Wanting to go ahead
And making sure you're dead
