• Say, You’re Like Me


    Damaged beyond societies perception of the norm
    Deceived and lied to, once we’re born
    Heart unfolded, twisted for pleasure
    A new pain to flirt with, distant but measured..

    Carries us through in songs so strong
    Dusting our shoulders and weathering our storms,
    With that friend by our side who just can’t realize
    The things we go through, even though they try.

    And my heart goes out to them, beaten but pure
    Believing in dreams and a greater good
    A silent moniker changes the way we love
    Used to express our gratitude, beyond and above!

    Damn this hopelessness that epitomizes our faults
    It throws us up, into endless somersaults.
    Creating a void that refuses to fill
    Downing our humor – our hearts, our will.

    Yet through this all, we steadily stand strong
    ‘Indifferent’ to it all with thoughts deadly and wrong
    But we can’t bare to leave this comfort we’ve come to know
    It makes us feel safe and prevents our growth

    To be someone sound, happy and carefree
    The kind of people we deeply want to be,
    So we hide inside, away from the truth
    Lying away to disperse the proof.

    That we’re not who we really say we are
    A drone existing in a shell
    Our thoughts – debris,
    Our lives – hell.
