A hundred sleepless nights
Lying on my bed in the dark all alone,
Frightened of what is yet to come,
Curled up tight under the sheets,
Protect me lord from this pain.
Cold soft prickles to my skin creeping up my leg,
Shivers down my spine,
Tears flow down my cheeks as whispers in my ear say my name.
I pray to you my lord to protect me from the evil spirits,
Make them go away,
They torment me at night,
Whispering my name,
See my tears,
Feel my pain,
Set me free,
Let me sleep,
Let me live my life.
FLYING LIKE AN EAGLE
Flying through the sky like an eagle,
Must be hard to see all the things that pass so fast.
It must be hard to see above those misty clouds,
When all has turned dark.
Strong as a bear,
As loyal as a lion,
Free as a bird,
You will soar through the sky,
To live a new life in heaven above.
I know you have gone from my sight,
But I know deep inside that you are safe,
That my heavenly father has saved you,
And that you are still here in my life.
You were always a hero to me,
Who always looked upon life without a care in the world,
I will keep your motto close to my heart,
And smile for every new day.
Save yourself
Close your eyes,
Dont turn back,
Leave all your fears behind.
Spread your wings out wide,
And live a life of hope.
His spirit will embrace in you,
Lifting you up high,
High above the sky,
You will learn to fly.
Running from the world
Running
some sort of force
Energy empowering me
Energizing my body
Animating my limbs.
The darkness of the ally
Shadows crouching over me
As I continue to run.
Running with the handle of the blade
Clutched tightly in my hand
The sharp tip glistening
In the slight light of the moon.
I can see him running now
Just ahead of me
Running fearfully
Wanting to scream
No one else to turn to
Except me.
Panting and gasping for his last breathe of life
He is trapped at the end of the ally
The towering wall
Too high to climb
Time to turn around
To face the fears of the world
As I continue to run
Towards him.
Running with the blade in my hand
My body filling with excitement
As I run my body begins to blur
My legs disappear
Until I stop.
The blade buried deep in his chest
Again and again
The blade plunges in and out
Red blood
Pouring all over the innocent ground
A big grin spreads across my face
Hes dead but the energy inside me
Wont let me pull the blade away
Again and again
Stabbing his dead body
Until its time to find a new victim,
The next passing vulnerable human.
(untitled)
I dont know what I need,
I dont know what I want,
Im trapped in a confusion,
Far from a dream.
Heat waves and passion,
Rage and frustration.
Hard to define whats right,
Or whats wrong.
Cloudy mixed thoughts,
Words need replacing,
Heart set on perfection,
Something far from my reach.
Cant disguise the fears I have,
Pressure to choose between one or another.
No time to think,
Time disappearing into the long elapsed past,
Nothing left to do,
But to take a step into the storm,
That casts a shadow,
Over my thoughtful soul.
Destroying whats real
You shut your mind off to the world,
And all thats left is a body dead to whats real.
You try to pretend that nothing matters,
And that no one truly cares.
You try to forget everything in the past,
Only making things worse and others frightened.
You sit in your room playing with fire,
Listening to your heavy metal turned up loud.
Sometimes you fall asleep at night forgetting that youre alive,
Hoping not to awake,
Only to find yourself in another day,
In a world youre trying to destroy with your mind.
Depressed girl
I feel hopelessness taking over,
I thought I was alive,
But now I feel dead inside.
All the passion and heat is fading away,
When Im alone I feel cold and bitter.
How can anyone care for this dead piece of life?
How can anyone love someone so cold and so bitter?
Am I a monster without a soul?
Or am I just a blade of grass,
Lost and forgotten in the crowd?
Innocent love
Falling in love with everyone,
Falling in love too easily,
Wanting to have more,
Always wanting more,
One boy is not enough.
Innocent girl leading them on,
Making them believe her love is true.
Young girl always wanting more,
No, one boy is not enough.
Innocent girl doesnt understand,
True meaning of love.
Believing that every boy she meets,
She falls head over heels.
But no, one boy is not enough.
This young girl wants more love.
Playing with young boys hearts,
All she has to do is look with puppy dog eyes,
Making them faint at the knees.
No, one boy is not enough love,
This girl always looking for more.
One boys not enough.
