Cutting Love Down "He's different," she mumbles through a smile. "She's different," he states proudly to his friends. "He's flawed; he eats with his mouth open and he always laughs at his own jokes," her eyes crinkle like she can physically see him. "She's flawed; she gets really fustrated at times and bottles her feelings up," he says with a gentle tone that his friends have never heard before. "He's totally cheating on you." "No one can be that perfect," they say. Slowly the love ebbs away and doubt takes its place.

The Healing River I'll tell you about a place A river A healing river That mends all scars And tends to all wounds A magic river That relieves all pain Thousands came To see the healing river And thousands after thousands it's healed All but one Whose pain was too deep Too raw to heal Day after day The person came And drowned his head in the healing river Minutes after minutes Holding his breath Nothing would change The pain in his head His thoughts His feelings Were still there The healing river heals all wounds But some are too great to heal.

. You ask if I'm okay I lie and say I'm fine Putting a smile on my face Because who really has the time You ask if I'm okay I lie and say I'm fine Wiping my tears away Because who really has the time You ask if I'm okay I lie and say I'm fine Dragging the knife along my wrist Because who really has the time?

Insomniac Gotta stay awake Coffee, tea Let's just say they do nothing for me Jumping up and down? Makes me more sleepy Sleepy. Sleep. Why can't I sleep? If I sleep the demons come The demons come for me You see, when I try to sleep They crawl out of my mind And they torment me, They torture me With their weapons of my memories, They suffocate me with my failed hopes and dreams, They make me mad with nightmares and fears, Till I'm running up the walls to keep myself awake Because every time I try to sleep They are there They are always there.

~ #Household I'm watching the clock And I see all the time spent Where it was just you and me And we were so young and free I'm watching the clock And I see those times when I used to catch your eye I'd just like to say I used to feel the same way I'm watching the clock And I see those times Late in the night When I'd keep you awake with my babbling But you wouldn't mind I'm watching the clock And I see that moment When I thought you were mine All the memories we shared Yet you gave them away without a care I'm watching the clock Begging it to go back Begging to have another chance. To have all that time back again.
