skin loves fever

Mad World

"All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you 'cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you 'cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
Mad world
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you 'cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very, very
Mad world
Mad world
Halargian world
Mad world"

you beat the kindness and care out of me

you can’t treat me like i don’t exist
if i don’t

you can’t ignore someone
if they aren’t around to speak

you can’t use someone
who doesn’t exist.

or maybe you can
but at least i won’t be there to care if you do.

now i won’t be hurt by any of you.

gonna walk walk walk, four more blocks, plus the one in my brain…

suicide eyes

vicious cries

the many reasons why

I’m never heard

The lines you draw

in the slipping sand

slips right through your hands

the lines your draw

are always blurred

a bit uncomfortable

a bit disturbed

and once again

there’s that voice that’s never heard

I could fall away too

slip away from all of you

just like the sand

let me ask you then

will you then understand

how much you demand

of me

would you still demand the same

if I were still to be

here with you

if you only knew

how far away I am

yet how close I am

to the end

maybe then

you would treat me better than just a friend

but people never know what we have

until it’s gone

and I’m not the only one

I’m not the only one

I’ll never be the only one

singing the same old line

of the same old song

of how people

rarely ever change.

Pale exit

Suicide eyes

vicious cries

the many reasons why

I’m never heard

The lines you draw

in the slipping sand

slips right on through

your careless hands

the lines your draw

are always blurred

a bit uncomfortable

a bit disturbed

and once again

there’s that voice that’s never heard

I could fall away too

slip away from all of you

just like the sand

let me ask you something

will you then understand?

how much you demand?

of me

would you still demand the same

if I were still to be

here with you?

if you only knew

how far away I am

yet how close I am

to the end

maybe then

you would treat me better than just a friend

but people never know what we have

until it’s gone

and I’m not the only one

I’m not the only one

I’ll never be the only one

singing the same old line

of the same old song

of how people

rarely ever change.

Eye roll

Don’t talk to me

I’m nice

You use

So next time you are feeling down

I’m sure you can find some bitch

To dick around

You are a stranger to me now

Because you get what you give

Peace out bro

Goodbye wolfie

What you can’t seem to understand
and never have understood
–
is that since the first day i met you
i always wanted you
i loved you
from the moment i saw you

We were just friends for a long time
and were close but had a falling out
and i didn’t hear from you for 5 years
just like that
and it hurt like hell.
you had a girlfriend
and so i (even though it broke my heart)… moved on

then one day out of the blue
you came back
and i didn’t treat you like a stranger
i wasn’t angry or resentful

but now you’re out of my life again
ignoring me like i mean nothing
like i meant nothing
and this is after we actually were in love

i’m still in love
but
i can’t do anything about what you do
i’m not going to force you to talk to me
it’s obvious you have found someone new who you
call your wife.
i am not your friend because you don’t treat me like a friend
you haven’t been there
you haven’t even cared to see if I’m okay

so i let you go
and from now on
i will stay away
but forever this time.

we had something amazing
and you listened to a stupid bitch
who you and i barely knew
and now i don’t even know you
anymore

But it’s okay
i can’t feel bad or sad
that you don’t even care about me
the way i care about you
well… cared… before now
i can’t feel bad
about this anymore

i’ve tried
i’ve cried
i’ve reached out
with no reply
and now i see
that you don’t give a damn about me
AT ALL

and that’s okay
you want it this way
so
you got it
i release you from my heart and mind
forever.

i promise you that.

What gets lost

I can only care

As much as you care about me

But I’ll be gone

And I won’t ever come back

Wasted time

Your hurt

Isn’t more important

Than my own

But I’m not hurting others

Because of it.

I don’t like anyone more

Than I love myself.

That may sound selfish

And it’s true

But I’m not selfish

Like most of you

Take it as you will

In the end

All that really matters

Is how you make someone feel

When you aren’t at your worst

When you don’t need them

Don’t mistake my kindness

For something more

Only good

To hit up

When you’re down low

And you’re in need

Don’t expect More

From anyone

When you only feed them crumbs

I’m not waiting

Too many people like you

To waste my time

Hidden

I think you are beautiful
…
I will love you
from
the distance
you have put between us.

Giving only half of you
takes away all of me

but my love for you
will be somewhere in the space
between
you and me
just without a trace of my face

you can be as free as you want to be
just without me
