Aspirations
I want to work a job that has high pay for that reason. When I tell people that, they think me greedy. They tell me I should work for my passion, do something I love, money doesn’t buy happiness. I wish they would understand:
My passions disappeared with my ability to love.
I want to use my money to make other people happy because that is the closest thing to happiness I’ll ever get.
Maybe next time you think someone selfish because they work for money. Maybe they nothing else in life, nothing, to work for.
So maybe you shouldn’t judge a song by its opening line.

Insomnia
I've been working overtime with no pay
I'm the only place that she seems to stay
We're supposed to be the ones in control
Yet it seems that someone has reversed the roles
And even if she falls, sleep and sound
I'll still be playing in the background
I've been running, moving, active all night
Just replaying all the wrong things she did that should've been right
Whenever someone tries to engage
She stays trapped, me her unwilling cage
She can't leave and neither can I
We're supposed to be in harmony but that is a lie
The only thing we have that is the same
Is that we only have each other to blame
And the only thing in which we cannot fight
Is that we hope this is a story, one that someone can rewrite
It's been hour or three or five, for all I can count
And all we can consider is the easy way out
But thank goodness for the heart because the only reason her soul remains here
Is because the feeling of fear
When it comes to the unknown
Not knowing what will happen when we're six feet below
I've been running, running all night
No semblance of peace, no peace inside
And when she finally drifts away
To her 'quiet' place
I'm left here running, active, moving
Stuck in this place, I've always been
And the sorrow deep in her soul has started to embed
And the only time I'll be seen
Is when both of us are dead
