Can you tell how alone I feel?
Can you tell I'm fighting emotions with which I cannot deal?
Can you see the pain in my eyes?
Can you see me waiting for life to pass me by?
Can you see the hurt, the trauma?
Say "No."
Say "You won't."
say "You are nothing."
Say "It's impossible."
Say all these things.
Say these words!
Say them!
They are but fuel for my fire!
I say "yes."
I’ve been
Awake full nights,
For the past three months,
Because I’ve got nothing to do.
So instead of doing nothing,
I instead do nothing and
I will never understand something
How can you smile all day long and cry yourself to sleep
Pictures never change but people in them do
How your bestfriend can become someone to hate
What Can I

[Verse 1:]
So, they ask me what’s poetry.
What can I do but tell you what this poet thinks?
Looking past the landscapes
there stands one dream.
One final goal that you know
deeper than the cliff you're standing on
you want one dream you know.
The trees are greener
the grass is taller
How much can you bear?
Why are you always on the clutches of wishes?
However you are hurt you don’t seem to learn
Whenever the mind wants to stop, you continue
Whenever the mind wants to continue, you stop
It's a wonder that I have survived so long without your help.
How it is possible, I have no idea.
Maybe it's my willpower or my lifestyle.
Watever the cause, I am having fun with no you in my life.
Hands
Of him to invade me to intrude to be ill mannered and uncouth to me
Hands
Dating the clock so faithful so diligent so painless so fast so slow
Hands
Life of a bully oh how it must be
to have people cower all over your feet
Storming and raging, even the skies are afraid
of who ever would come across you and your rage
Can you see from my clothes,
all the things I know.
Adorned from head to toe in mediocrity.
I use to feel the need to exceed normality.
That back seat far into the corner,
I become unseen.
Though I do the work that you ask,
Why can I not just be me?
You tell us to be our selves,
But when we do, you shut us down,
If rays of light refract, rend rainbows,
then surely I can make a change
If salmon somehow stagger homeward,
surely I can stay the course
If men have trekked the might of mountains,
surely I can rise above
I don't need your pessimism.
I don't need your false hope.
I don't need your tears.
I don't need your pain.
I don't need your broken heart.
I can do bad all by myself.
