i put the poison stick to my lips,
feeling the wind as it whips,
i took a breath,
every inhale a  brush with death,
i know its bad,
i've read the books,
i can't help it,
now i'm hooked.

i took a sip of the devil's nectar,
it's sweet,
it's sour,
fogs my blood for hours,
i know it's bad,
my momma's told me,
i can't help it,
it makes me feel free.

everybody says, "that stuff is bad",
then how come when i have it,
i don't feel sad.

He plays with girls,
uses them for their bodies.

He's never been in love,
just likes to party.

She's shy and quiet,
not one for crowds.

She's good in school,
and not easily fooled.

He's good inside,
there must be light,
he's just not putting up much of a fight.

There's bad in her,
she gives in to quickly,
light 'em up, gulp it down until she looks sickly.

Who said opposites couldn't attract?

I wish to get lost in you,
the way you smell like smoke and mint,
the way your laugh resonates off every wall,
the way your eyes change from blue to green,
the way your smile only curves a little,
even the way you look when your sad.

I hope to get lost in you,
so make sure nobody gives me a map.

It tastes good on my tongue,
and heavenly down my throat,
it fogs up my brain with one big swarm of smoke.

Strange visions, and rash decisions control my fate,
fruity flavored liquids, and staying up late.

I did this for you,
don't you see?

You and your bubblegum lips ruined me.

I etched your name into my skin with a cigarette.
I filled your empty space with liquid poison.
I deluded your image with vivid dreams.
I forgot your scent with unwavering time.
Despite all this though, I never actually forgot you.

Sometimes all the anger I have reaches it's peak and it explodes.

What I would scream to her,
You act so fake around everyone, but no matter how hard you try you'll never be true

What I would scream to him,
I love you! I love you so much it hurts!

What I would scream to them,
Nobody likes it here, so stop pretending we do!

What I would scream to the world,
Stop acting! Stop fake smiling! Stop pretending! Just please stop!

It just can't be kept in.

I'm angry at the world, and it's angry right back at me.
