Foreward

                   For all the things I've left unspoken

I know they would be better off left unsaid.

I'm left in a dream again.

Please allow me to show you my life.

I want to show you my pain

And how it’s like to hurt

With nothing more to gain

When all you’ve done is work.

Let me hold your hand and guide you thru my mind.  

Welcome to the 7 Nation Army

Where as long as you’re friends with me

You’re not my enemy.

Watching as my flag is burning

I think about all of my traitors.

May God take pity on all of my haters!

I don’t have to be Republican to know how to shoot a gun that’s loaded

But everytime I shoot, the bullets are all words and roses.

My life is too short

I need 8 more.

You promised me the world

But now you’re shaking and the stars are all falling down

And your voice was all I heard

Your voice was the only sound

But now the weight of your promise is all on your shoulders.

I’m standing on the sidelines watching Hell freezing over.

Heavy is my heart with all my truths untold

And heavier it grows as my guiltiness unfolds.

Don’t leave me in the night sky

I want to be where the sun shines

Don’t leave me behind

I’m on my knees and I’m praying

That someone out there will hold me in their caring arms

In their loving arms.

Watching you turn your back on me again

I blow you another kiss.

I feel myself die a little inside

All over again

And I’m lost in this mess.

But that’s fine.

Moving forward back into nowhere.

Back into the wilderness.

But that’s alright.

The Queen of Spades is after me.

Wants to bury in a heart shaped coffin.

Go on, bury me inside.

Bury me alive.

So lovers never let each other go,

Never let her go, Never let him go,

Never let your love grow cold,

And may your heart grow heavy with all your truths untold,

And heavier may it be as your guiltiness unfolds.

Don’t leave me in the night sky

I want to be where the sun shines

Don’t leave me behind

I’m on my knees and I’m praying

That someone out there will hold me in their caring arms

In their loving arms.

Who left my heart open?

Who left it broken?

All my trust has been stolen

All my hate seemed foreign

All this time I tried to hide

But its time that I leave

All my pain and suffering

And turn it to pride

Don’t leave me in the night sky

I want to be where the sun shines

Don’t leave me behind

I’m on my knees and I’m praying

That someone out there will hold me in their caring arms

In their loving arms.

Who left my heart open?

Who left it broken?

All my trust has been stolen

All my hate seemed foreign

All this time I tried to hide

But its time that I leave

All my pain and suffering

And turn it to pride

My ink is my blood and soul

And my paper is their hearts

I’m writing this hoping

that someone out there will understand my story
And here it goes...

For all the things I've left unspoken

I know they would be better off left unsaid.

I'm left in a dream again.

Please allow me to show you my life.

I want to show you my pain

And how it’s like to hurt

With nothing more to gain

When all you’ve done is work.
