Music, a double edge sword.
It aggravates gaping wounds;
It mends optimistic spirits.

A magic that can ascend one to
A higher plane of existence,
Or a boulder that can send one hurling
To the bottom of Dante's inferno.

A cupid that gives repose to distressed spirits,
Or a scythe that leaves a furrow in the heart of a cynical soul.

They say time heals, I say music aligns the stars,
Fuels the flare, unclouds the gloom of the skies;
Brings spirits closer to enlightenment.

I chose to embrace her, drop the deadweight,
And unlock the shackles of my heart.

My heart feels like it's exploding
And I'm not sure where I'm going
Will you grab my hand and lead the way?
I'm just not quite sure you're here to stay
Anywhere with you I'm sure to go
Through the rain and even the snow
A moment with you is better than none at all
Even if you leave you'll catch my fall
I'm not quite sure how to explain
This beautiful feeling of love and pain
All I know it is you I want
Any pain aside in a careless haunt
I feel so blind without you.
What is this?

I always thought pain was red
Like the blood in my veins
I never would have thought
My pain would have a face

my body is aching
my heart is heavy
my stomach is churning
i'm nervous and shaky
i haven't slept
i don't like my mindframe at this moment

Its kinda sad really
When you can feel
One of your favorite people
Slowly slipping away from you
It's not as exciting now when you talk to them
It doesn't make you that happy anymore
The little things they do
Its kinda sad really
When you can feel them
Slipping out of your reach
Off on their own journey
Without you

I don't want to go there
to that place where nothing
is also  everything
Off the grid
