Black sparrow , black sparrow
You have fallen prey to death
Little sparrow, sleek and narrow
The moons at its crest
Black sparrow, black sparrow
Fly into the afterlife
Cold sparrow, you've paid your toll
Now end your strife
Black sparrow, black sparrow
Close your eyes
Little sparrow, your path is narrow
But walk it you must, you have died
Black sparrow, black sparrow
Find your tomorrow

Stary skies
On painted nights
Hearty ties
With scripted fights
Fake, it's just a scene
This actor's world
Can become mean
When you wish to lean your head
On one's shoulder
But you stay at home instead
And the stress makes you look a bit older
And you rather go to bed

Why does it have to be hard?
Why do we cry?
Why do we dream so far?
When are dreams just crash from up high

Director yells cut
And you shrink inside
And you wonder what,
You didn't hide
There no room for your stress
Keep your eyes to the script
It's what director thinks best
Your opinion is skipped

Why does it have to be hard?
Why do we cry?
Why do we dream so far?
When dreams just crash from up high

Wake up with the sunlight on my face
Fell asleep without a hope, without a grace
Cold nights, thoughtless and bare
No love in the alley ways
When your only company
Is a street rat
That simpers his way by
Last lunch , was from the trash
I'm not looking for pity
Not looking for another's tears
Just looking for a place to rest my head
From these troubled days
Never begged a day in my life
Wouldn't start today
Won't look for a place to die
Searching for a place to lay
I'm a survivor
I won't give up
I'm a soldier
I'll fight on

I don't know what I have done
To be punished today
My joints ache
My skins deformed
I cannot feel warmth
I want to cry
But I simply can't
Believe I've tried
I feel as though
I've been taken over
And my body will not move at will
How could I
Ever feel like this
It's sickening to feel
I just want to be warm
I just want the things go away
I'm tired of it , but it's
Determine to stay

I can't help but feel
That this'll end it all
I'm scared as I walk down these halls
My whole body shakes
My insides quake
And a storms rebelling in me
I choke back tears
I don't want to know what
He'll say
I don't want my mother to cry
For Jesus sake I don't want to die!
But even now my arms my legs
Everything burns
I
Can feel it crawl it's way
Through my body
I
Can feel it eat me away
I only know that
When I raised my head from that pillow
And glanced down on my body
I was horrifyed
Red swirling patches
Ate up my body
Down my stomach
Down my legs
Along my Back ...
On my face
Cruel reality
Setting in
Was this punishment
For all my sins
Please I'm sorry
But to my mother
I'm last of kin

A choir sings behind me
Collapsed on the floor
My heart beat once more
My hand outstretched
For a prince that never came
For a hero that never saved the day
Crashing at a million miles per hour
Towards a bottomless pit
****** away, chewed up then spit,
Nothing more than a residue
Left over
A mere mark
Of what might've existed
A wasted prayer
Among the mass
One teacher
Of an uncaring class
Fog on glass
Wiped away
Night to the sun
A passed day
Nothing more
Everything less
Left as an empty shell
I'm alone again
Without your touch
I'm not much
My heart ....
There is no beat
My finger tips to the stars....
They do not meet
My time is up
I'll say goodbye
With tears in my eyes
And pain wedging my throat
I leave tonight ..... On the lowest note

Worthless...
Never perfect....
Shattered tears on floors made of mirrors
Reflecting my every imperfection
Shard by shard
I chip away
A worthless sculpture...
Never good enough...
Never beautiful...
Cracked
Scarred
Mangled
A mess
Scraps thrown together
Eyes look at their reflection
Hatred
Questioning
Infected
Neglected
Self loathing
All in a moment
Close those forest green eyes
One tear slips past
Hopefully the last
We all want
What we can't have....
