10/16/09 (ghostly prediction)
every night i dream of a ghost
but like your love for me it comes and it goes
i'm hopeless romantic
my heart is quite frantic
and it beats like a clock
every tick and every tock
and like a thinning cloud
i disappear without a sound
into the caverns of my mind
i will forever hide
and the gears in my heart
turned slowly from the start
i guess i should have known
that my heart would never be whole
that true love would not be found
not before i'm underground
and my soul will remain
like a dirty blood stain
no more of what i am but what i am not
i'm the one you said you'd love,
but just as easily forgot
10/13/09 (superficial blues)
the chemicals inside my brain
are finally acting up again
i knew it had been too long for me
to continue feeling so damn happy
but this hole really isn't that deep
and i feel that there's still hope for me
well maybe not, i mean who really knows
because i know i don't, or at least suppose
and you can trust me as far as a stones throw
so i think it's best that i just go away
but i'm slipping back into my old ways
where i never really feel quite ok
where the fluids swirling round my head
tell me that i'd be much better off dead
because i hate this place and everyone too
and i'm pretty fucking sure that you all hate me too
because this world is too concerned with what's cool
no cares for another, they just want to look good
you're no longer judged for what's inside your heart
now we're all characterized by the cost of our cars
are you beautiful? are you young?
are you skinny? are you hung?
are you tall? what size cup?
are you dead? is there love?
is there love?
10/10/09
i am defective
i am a broken toy
i'm a sad, sorry, sappy
misplaced little boy
twenty years i've grown
twenty more i'll die
i'll spend my time forgetting things
i will lose my mind
i'm a robot
i'm a hate machine
i've been taught to distrust and to dislike
damn near every thing
i'm a holy ghost
i'm a miracle
i'm the reason you smile when you awake
and before you die
i'm a hopeless fool
a self-destructive lie
it seems kind of funny now
to know that i tried (to be the nice guy)
i'm a fruitless tree
i'm a harmless flea
i'm the itch you can't scratch
i'm everything you'll never be
i'm every poem and fable
i'm every story and tale
i'm everything your parents told you you'd be
i'm every time you fail
i am forever
but my time ends now
because you heard all of this already
but never quite how
i am a child
i am the dead
i'm every terrible thought that's swirling
around your troubled head
i am me
i am a dying breed
i am the piece inside of you
you'll forget eventually
i am the dull silence
i'm the endless noise
i'm the thoughts and dreams, the hopes and schemes
of every girl and boy
i am an endless battle
that will never be won
because we can't kill ourselves
we'll just be reborn
i am love
i will never end
you can try to dismiss me
but i'll never bend
i am you
i am me
i am he, i am she
i am everything
APRIL 07 (cannibal girl)
when i awoke
my arms were tied
my head hurt from the blow
i thought i had died
but then there she came
right into the room
and right then i knew
that i'd be dead soon
bloodlust in her eye
it captivated me
and as she opened a wound
i started to bleed
she sucked at my blood
just to get a slight taste
she stared into my eyes
with a devilish gaze
she slowly fed on
my savory skin
ripped through my flesh
in a crazed human binge
oh cannibal girl!
i've fallen for thee
but your hunger for flesh
stops you from loving me
though i love you so
i know it can't be
cause you feed on humans
and now you're eating me
although i am dead
my heart does still beat
but not for long
cause soon you will eat
with one final breath
i managed some words:
"enjoy your meal,
my sweet cannibal girl"
she'd severed my arms
soon after my legs
and what came next!?
oh! she sawed off my head!
9/29/09 (long distance love)
this twelve point text across my screen
is getting pretty bad for me
my fluxuations in bravery
have made it hard for me to breathe
you brought me to this point, before i was angry
promises of love not seen before, are haunting me
the magnetism of my hearts confusing me
the feeling i've been left with like my chest's sinking in
i don't know where i'm supposed to go
or who i'm supposed to talk to
cause you change the way you feel so much i'm losing track
and at this point all i want is to get my life back
we playfully misspell words just to lighten the mood
but it's darkening to the point where i can't see
just which future it is that you have chosen for me
it's really frightening that now you control me
you mold and fold my insides to a small city (that never sleeps)
you've got me on my toes, so scared i cannot eat
"you're losing me"
tonight
i don't know where i'm supposed to go
i have no one i can talk to
you change the way you feel so much that i've lost track
and now i know that i will never get my life back
9/25/09 ((the flood) phil elverum faker)
flooded and muddied
clouded and buried
washed up to the shore
carried up from the floor
this weight that's on my shoulders
heavier than one thousand boulders
it's bringing me back down
sinking like an anchor
it's getting colder and colder
i'm growing more and more hollow
i'm sinking back down
it's killing me inside
it's eating me alive
the tide is pulling me under
my body is frozen
my mind is rotten
and all that's left is my heart
it's being slowly ripped apart
by the flood
3/17-3/22/09 (stranger than stranger than fiction(love song to a stranger))
when i wake up in the morning
and i see that it is pouring
i decide that is best
if i get a bit more rest
and so i rest my tired head
on my pillow in my bed
and when i look over at you
there's no way i could be blue
because i'm melting when i've got you stuck inside my head
and i'm happy when i'm lying with you in my bed
you tangle and you twist up all of my insides
and i never ever want you to leave my side
i'd die
and so i get up to start my day
when from your lips i hear you say
"my dear please don't be long,
i'm so very lonesome when you're gone"
and so i promise not to stay
when i go out along my way
but the second that i leave
you come right back to me
because i'm melting when i've got you stuck inside my head
and i can't wait till i'm back next to you inside our bed
you've tangled and you've twisted all of my insides
and dear you make feel so very very quite alright
and i see that it is pouring
i decide that is best
if i get a bit more rest
and so i rest my tired head
on my pillow in my bed
and when i look over at you
there's no way i could be blue
because i'm melting when i've got you stuck inside my head
and i'm happy when i'm lying with you in my bed
you tangle and you twist up all of my insides
and i never ever want you to leave my side
i'd die
and so i get up to start my day
when from your lips i hear you say
"my dear please don't be long,
i'm so very lonesome when you're gone"
and so i promise not to stay
when i go out along my way
but the second that i leave
you come right back to me
because i'm melting when i've got you stuck inside my head
and i can't wait till i'm back next to you inside our bed
you've tangled and you've twisted all of my insides
and dear you make feel so very very quite alright
3/2/09 (poor and unhappy, arizona, spring 2009)
on and on and on and on and
on and on and on and on and
these days go slow, just withering by
the doldrums have come, and taken my life
day after day, the quiet is long
and night after night, the madness stretches on
the weight of it all, it crushes me whole
the tortures of life, and those good and ol'
the thrill of it all, being on my own
does not nearly make up for the growing hole
the decline of my mind, the sinking of my soul
is destroying my being, freezing my heart cold
i'm on the run, from what i do not know
but here i am, in this sorry hell for a home
my roots are not deep, and soon i will leave
so my heart doesn't rot, and finds some peace
to the road i'll head, i'll feel all i can feel
and so maybe some day, i'll finally be free
i guess we'll see
9/21/08 (pt. I)
i left your world to join another
but now i'm clouded, and torn asunder
i feel i'm drifting on an endless sea
and all i want is for you to like me
but i don't think that you feel the same
and it's worse cause i know i'm the one to blame
so now my stomach's slowly sinking
cause i never know just what you're thinking
and i know i never really did
but i want you to know i feel like shit
and while you're miles away still having fun
i'm laying here, just feeling stunned
i buried myself in a grave
full of loneliness, despair and hate
because i blew it then, and i'm blowing it now
oh! if there's a chance, please tell me how
i know i'm stupid and kinda lame
but i feel i've always been the same
so please take it easy on my brain
will you tell me you're tired of playing games
because believe me girl, i'm tired too
and all i want is to lie in bed with you
or am i just another night inside your head
just another body nestled in your bed
i really hope that i am not
cause if that's so, then i'll surely rot
but i don't think you're that kind of girl
but i don't really know, i think i'm gonna hurl...
blech!
11/19/08 (pt. II)
sick, sick, i'm so sick
i'm so sick of doing this
this game we play is so one-sided
you led me on, and up and died with it
i won't call you, nor you for i
cause you don't nearly care enough to try
but who's to blame, i know it's all my fault
i failed us once, and now we've come to a stall
but now i've let you get inside of me
and now it's all died out, rotten rotted tree
so i'm stuck here, cursing my awful luck
all the while you're out there, not giving a fuck
but hey what do i care, it was all teen lust...
