Love and Disappointment

You are my cry for help

had you once when I was manic

So long I've been in pieces

Frenzied

Alone I'm in a panic

The truth is I'm not pretty

I never mask my pride

I'm tired and I'm foolish

Pretend I'm tough,

I've always lied

They say you're like your friends

my friends are few and dead

Some stories meet their ends,

I'm left sick in the head

Looking for some meaning

A reason just to wake

This life is an excuse

to take, and take and take

You'd be there if you cared

The dudes they like the Chase

I stood there and I dared

I've felt your fist against my face

I'm filled up to the brim

Emotions I try to discard

I stomp them to the ground

I shatter every fucking shard!

You hurt me with your lies

You wound me with your words unsaid

But still I stay with you

because alone I think I'm dead

It's trouble but I try

I never stop, I never can

Every time I think I'm through

I find something to start again...
