Be Nimble

You know those days, when you just can't breathe?
Those times when you don't see the point in being alive.
Those moments when you really just want to leave?
Welcome to every moment of my life.

Have you had those times when you just can't sleep?
Those phobias and fears you just can't put to bed?
When you're far to tired to count count those sheep,
And those demons that just won't get out of you head..

This is that time where I just can't breathe.
Just can't sleep.
Just can't leave.

This is that time I don't want to be alive.

Tell me I'm pretty, tell me I'm sweet.
Baby come knock me off of my feet.
The morning's coming and it's coming quick.
Jack jumped over the candlestick.

But he wasn't nimble, he wanted to quit.
He wanted to quit and he threw a fit.
"Suck it up," his father said, "don't you whine.
If you whine, I cry, if I cry we all die."

Jack stopped whining and no one's dead
But Jack wants to quit inside if his head.

We all want to quit at some point at time.
And if you don't you're telling a lie.
So Jack you be nimble,
Jack you be quick.
Jump over that silly little candlestick.

Down But Not Out

Words locked inside my mind. Not sure what I did this time. Pausing memories intense. Feeling emotions I'm up against. Well I just don't know anymore. Drinking and sleeping on the floor.

Clinging

Clinging to the edge, I know I promised and made a pledge. But what have I got left here. Hope, love. No, just fear. It'd be just so much easier to fall. Heart dead, put a stop to it all.

Alive

The blood pumping through our veins. Our hearts beating all the same. I look at it as if it's beautiful red rain. Trickling its way down, it seems to stop and say forget about the pain.

The Moon And Scars

The moon brings the memories. The memories bring the pain. The sun brings me salvation. And reminds me that I'm sane. The nights bring on the terror. Which resides within the dark.

Tides Turning

Every move we make Moves us from the place were trying to get to,. Trapped by the Current of life,. Every breath we take to stay above water trying to survive,.

Cling To Hope

I feel so tired through and through. All I see, a dreamy hue. Outside the darkness starts to creep. Inside my heart I start to weep. A heavy weight that drags me drown.

Rescue

I'm scared of looking the fool, But I fear I already am. What the hell should I do, When life throws you in the deep end of another pool.
