Alcohol thins my blood
Dark and thick, from torment
As the sweet steel
Finally eases the pain
And frees the heartache that has been flowing
Through my veins
For years
I asked for help
Because I knew I needed it
And was passed off, as another Emo Fag
I made excuses, and found reasons
Even when they clearly werent there
I had taped, and stapled, and sewn my hear back together
So many times
But it never worked the same, it never felt the same
And the scars were always visible
I never wanted it to come to this
But I exhausted every other outlet
I was fucked from the beginning
And now I am just one less burden,
You told me
It would be better
It would work out
It was going to be ok
I lied to myself, when i believed you
You promised me
the hurt would stop
I would see the sun again
I would be among friends
Among love
I lied to myself, when i believed you
You convinced me
The stage of hurt in my life was over
I could begin a new , better, life
I could finally break free from everything
that was holding me back
I lied to myself, when i believed it
You said you didnt want to become
another thing i had to survive
You didnt want to be
Just another thing in my past, i had to forget
Another person, that i had to move on from
You lied to
I'm sorry
I'm sorry that i couldn't be what you wanted me to be
Who you wanted me to be
When you wanted me to be him
I'm sorry
That i couldn't care
in the right way
Understand
In the , Right way
Feel my emotions
In the Right way
I guess i was just too inconsiderate...
to realize i was wrong
a little too ungreatfull
by not taking your views
and using them as my own
After all, you are the one who has been through it all before...
I'm sorry
I ever let my heart
Convince me, that you were the right reason
Or let it convince me
That we... had made a bad decision
I'm sorry
That i ever let my mind
Leave a space for, "we"
N
Forget the hatred
and the lost trust
the Promises you made
and dreams you crushed
the shattered lives
you have left behind
you cant rewind
youll never find
a happy thought
or a smiling face
when ur name comes up
within this place
But never forget
the times we had
the feelings we shared
the good, not the bad
Did i love you too much?
Did i care , too much?
Did i give too much attention,
to much effort, motivation?
Did i sacrifice enough?
Time, Money, gratificaton?
Did i make you laugh enough?
Hold you hand enough?
Dry your tears, cope with your fears,
Stand by you through the years, enough?
Never forget how happy you
You never gave me the luxury by F2cklife, literature
Literature
You never gave me the luxury
You have said goodbye
a thousand times now
and hello, a thousand times more
when is goodbye
really goodbye
You moved on
but i never had the luxury
Youve had others
i never had the time
busy stitching the wounds
that you cut open
rebuilding the walls
you never thought twice about knocking down
redoing the knots
to which you undid so carelessly
youve said you were sorry
and repeated your mistakes
ive tried to make amends
and all you try to do is make the bed
you go back to your life
and i go back to what is left of mine
you go back to them
and i come back to half of what i used to be
I step out to where the bright lights
i wake up next to him
every morning
look him in the eye and smile
i brush my fingers through his hair
and stray from his morning breath
and i wonder why its him
and not you
We go for walks
hand in hand
laugh and tell stories
hang with our friends
drink together on the weekends
and on cold nights,
we even stay in
and all the while i wonder
why it is him
i feel for him
half of what i felt for you
and he gives me
twice of what i got from you
yet my happiness
is no wher near
where it shwas with you
and i cant help but wonder
why is it him
when it should have been you
Ive made you laugh
and seen you cry
you came to me
before i died
i barely know you
so tell me please
why do i feel this way
A perfect stranger
that stands before me
an enigma wrapped
in a familar face
that brightens my nights
and shadows my days
warms my thoughts
with glistening rays
of ecstatic confusion
blissfull delusion
extraordinary reason
with no meaning
i barely know you
so tell me please
why do i feel this way
You promised me the world
then you took it away
you dangled a life
far better than mine
in front of my face...
Then shot it down like it was never there to begin with
You promised me love
like no other
that lasts forever
Then you ended it
And with it, you ended me
You promised me happiness
and that i would never worry again
or question anything
you promised me
you would never leave
... you lied
Who needs redemption
when you have all of these feelings
emotions
thoughts... bottled in your head
Driving you to do that
in which you know you shouldnt
but you feel is the only way out
who needs belief
in a lie
passed on from generation
to generation
that everything works out
for the best
in the end
who needs to believe
in something else
when everything....
you have ever known, and ever will know
is already right there
in that void
that is left when your life is taken from you
The only thing you need
is faith
in the fact that it doesnt get better
it doesnt work itself out
he wont come back
he never planned on it
my thoughts
tangled in a web of heartache
and suicide
my soul
mangled into an unrecognizable
tragedy
slowly decaying
under the pressure that
I
have put on myself
my heart
a distant memory
never to beat again
never to feel again
my life
slipping further and further
into a bottomless pit
filled with lies, broken promises
overbearing...
Memories
the light
at the end of the tunnel
the one that shines so bright
to guide me out...
well you...
have just turned it off.....

i cried tears
but never the well of my heart gone less
when you were gone
my sun was gone
with the light of the past
and life became a memory
your smile changed into fading pictures
on the walls
and days became papers
that fall from a calendar hanging on the wall....
and when i remember the past
i'll never forget you
our days together
how much i hurt you
but now its too late to apologize
after the angel of death stabbed me
and left his dagger in my heart
along with eternal pain
i'll never forget you....
