Sometimes Sometimes I still hear your voice. It's like you never left me here, With all this meaningless house, In a land based on fear. Sometimes I feel your breath On the back of my neck again. But you couldn't escape death. You're as gone as you've ever been.

Invisible Sometimes when I can't sleep I let my feet carry me Through the house. My family sleeps soundly And I can hear them breathing. I want to be like them, Able to sleep, Able to dream and laugh. But I am awake, Prowling the night Like a ghost. Sometimes I think I could be invisible For all they care. I think I would like that, To be invisible, Always prowling, Alone and never having To watch my back. I could love invisibility, Learn to love the dark, Maybe even that Little piece of me That's trapped in a living nightmare.

eyes of wine her eyes swim with secrets her voice tells a lie her mind is filled with misery but she won't say why her clock is a-ticking it won't be long now the water keeps on rising it wants to see her drown just let go, now the tide is pulling you out to sea and it's a crazy ride your lungs burned by lighters when you were lighting cigarettes just let go, now there's only one way, you know I can see it in your face drowning in eyes of wine

waking dreams Filled with dreams of a greater world, A tiny girl lies down to sleep. In her mind she promises to keep Her innocence in this cruel world. Haunted by nightmares of a waking kind And a past he can't outrun, A boy lives in a web of the lies he spun And retreats within his broken mind. A teenage mother lies down at night, But her tired eyes won't close. She remembers her precious baby's toes And how his father left after their last fight.
