The Simple Things

Our hearts are pounding,
Face to face we stare,
The future before us is astounding,
All of the problems we will bear.

There is nothing to run away from,
As the pages of our lives turn,
No need to be deaf blind and dumb,
Just know that my love is stern.

We trudge on like soldiers,
Marching for the war has begun,
We are unmovable boulders,
Together we can face what we've done.

Just stand our ground,
Never turn away,
We can not be drowned,
As long as we have the will to stay.

So what are we waiting for,
We have to fight for what we feel,
There is a world for us to explore,
But we need to claim our own zeal.

We trudge on like soldiers,
Marching for the war has begun,
We are unmovable boulders,
Together we can face what we've done.

So when we are broken down,
Remember that the deepest valleys are not too low,
A smile is stronger than a frown,
And our strength is all I am sure I know.

It is the simple things,
The words that you say,
All the hope your word brings,
That get me through the day.

We trudge on like soldiers,
Marching for the war has begun,
We are unmovable boulders,
Together we can face what we've done.

Nothing ever has been so hard,
Than to think of where you are,
He might take your heart,
Yet I still feel that you aren't too far.

Maybe you are thinking of the same simple things,
The words that I say,
All the hope my word brings,
That get you through the day.

You'll Never See

With the sorrow in my eyes,
My hope is wearing dim,
Every thought I have brings out cries,
If you want to be held go to him.

Don't come to me,
Hoping for me to give in,
No glasses will ever make you see,
That I may never hold again.

I feel too cold,
The ice is freezing inside,
My love you sold,
So his lips could be tried.

This is a resignation,
I won't back down,
Three cheers for celebration,
When I won't be around.

I hope you are happy now,
You never wanted me anyways,
Take a bow,
You'll have better days.

Forget the time we spent together,
May the choice haunt you,
Even if my love is forever,
Didn't mean I'd step aside for everything you do.

Hold Me Together

The way you move,
Haunts me every day,
The things that used to sooth,
Now are the sirens of decay.

I fight and let it near,
Saying I'll never love another,
But to you that goes in one ear,
Right out the other.

Sometimes I think,
That the lack of her severely sickens me,
Like a ship without buoyancy I sink,
In the depths of the sea.

Will I ever press on,
Will this pain ever fade away?
Have the best parts come and gone,
Will love ever find a way?

Buried beneath sheets of ice,
My heart is shattered forever,
I don't know if I'll let go of my vice,
But can you hold my heart together?

Part of the Cast

I hide behind this face,
Tears heavier than can be weighed,
My heart is a disgrace,
With all the blood its paid.

My depression is hard to approach,
Deceit and emptiness holding a grudge,
It crawls in like a cockroach,
No one can ever seem to make it budge.

I never pull myself out,
When my head is below the wave,
My will is too shallow and stout,
And my heart is short of brave.

I'd rather deal with pain,
Just let it control me,
With scars my skin it stains,
So easy to see.

I'm sorry for the scars,
And how I take forever to heal,
Laying under the stars,
You must know how it is all so real.

The universe is vast,
Most of it is empty space,
I'm a part of that cast,
And for now, that is what you need embrace.

Not a Beat

Hands are shaking,
And I can't breath,
Heart is breaking,
And I can't leave.

A withered face,
In a crowd of liars and cheats,
A desolate place,
Where the heart never beats.

I have a deadly wish,
But it needs to be realized,
There is nothing to miss,
Death isn't surprised.

I've called his name,
Several times before,
Every cry the same,
His grace I implore.

I have a path to follow,
Demonize the love I've know,
The fucked up situation is hollow,
Born without a back bone.

Marching the scars,
To remind me to quit,
The feeling that was ours,
Seems so full of shit.

The Prison of Sorrow

The pain I feel inside,
Making me feel like nothings left,
Of course I lied,
I tore my flesh.

My corpse is at a funeral,
I'll never attend,
My hopes, I burned them all,
Why do I even pretend.

Can't save me,
From what has become,
Too plain to see,
That I'll die young.

Come take me from this,
Dig my grave,
A withered heart in an empty abyss,
In blood it bathes.

Never trust me when I say I'm okay,
I collapse when under pressure,
To myself I am prey,
Loneliness makes me nothing or lesser.

This burning beneath the skin,
Make it go away,
Decimate the hope again,
Like every other Valentine's day.

Crawling for salvation,
But the misery persists,
Not cut out for a relation,
Only for a slit of the wrist.

I Hope It Will Keep You Warm

Don't look back,
Keep headstrong towards your bout,
Into my arms just relax,
I won't let the fire burn out.

The oppression in which you live your life,
Where you've been stripped of what is yours,
Don't let him steal your blithe,
Keep him from making tears pour.

He doesn't know of your worth,
It is stronger than he could ever comprehend,
I'll keep you warm through this frigid dearth,
And for that on me you can depend.

But you must hold your head,
Hold it high,
This cold is only temporary upon your bed,
The fervent will return so don't cry.

And if you can't feel the heat,
Look in you heart,
Even though we have yet to meet,
I've kept you warm since the start.
