It was a gloomy Saturday night
As I walked the staircase to hell
All rage and ready to fight
Too bad this angel fell

A book in the corner full of sins
A trail of people left drained
A closet full of different skins
So I could switch mine if it got stained

A path surronded by flames
A throne fit for a queen
Curtains woven by shame
I was in a mood to be mean

A smirk firmly in place
No regret left inside
Not a tear on my face
I didn't want to hide

I stood before hells jury
Fairness was not insight
No one could stand before his fury
But I was a bomb strapped by might

The gavel slams, Im guilty
Of course it's true
I was on the brink of insanity,
where I want to be

But no chains
No bars
No cage
Would hold me

This was my throne
I would make this my home
So with a grin on my face
I took my place
And I started a riot in hell
Katlyn Orthman Feb 2013
The music drips in my veins
As I carelessly drift away
Dance with me
The move of our hips
To the beat
Hands razed
Body grazed
The power in each word
The power to be heard
Overcoming every fear
A prayer for every tear
Colliding and flying
All around
The ground shaking
The earth so angrily quaking
Oh misery
Let go of me
Screaming just to feel
Screaming until my throat hurts
Because it reminds me
The rush is so real

This heart left unbeating
Soul slowly depleting
The skies blood red
I feel like I am dead
Just walking among these streets
As every night my tears stain my sheets
This hole in my heart
Strip by strip I fall apart
Alone I was always alone
With my mother is my home
A title makes you nothing to me
Just people living free
Swirling now inside my head
You were better off dead
Atleast then I wouldn't feel so hurt
So hello, now goodbye
There's the door
Katlyn Orthman Feb 2013
Burning up the streets
Watching the flames eat
Feeding them with my anger
With my pain
Never going back
Fueled by my shame
Tossing away the keys
I'm leaving behind the old me
She's no longer my home
I'm ready to be the riot
Never keeping quite
I'm ready to be insane
Never being tame
Releasing the crazy in me
She's been chained up
Never being able to feed
I have this bloodlust controlling me
And she won't rest, she's too hungry
She'll take your soul
Eat it whole
A smile on her face
But there's no room to care
The fireworks explode
The river runs free
Letting this crazy feeling run through me
Throw my hands up
Tilt my head back
Scream to the sky
Let the stars take me
Laughing tell I cry
Crashing through the flames
Never going back
Never chaining myself that place
I'm on fire
As I tear up the streets
In the dark

Cold
So numb
Almost dead
Breathe in my last
Running from my past
Spun out I would have crashed
So torn and broken I lied
This whole life, I was pretending
I cry to see it now ending
Troubled I run away from my heart
To find what had really pressed start
Glue that held my fake smile
Love that lasted awhile
Heart put on trial
Pain went viral
Love spiral
Smile
Gone

The graveyard
Follow me
To the dark
Where we can see
All the light
That has always
Avoided me
Close your eyes
And drift away
Let the souls
Take away your pain
Let your heart go
Another way
So we can lay here today
Follow me
To the dark
Where we can see
All the light
That has always
Avoided me
Find yourself
In the mirror that lies
Beneath the tree
It's right beside of me
Where I lay
Cold
The graveyard
So dark they say
All the tears
And all the pain
Cold
Cold as night
Don't forget to fight
For your life
Don't end like me
Please just see
At the end of the hall
At the end of it all
There a door
That will wait for you
If you allow it too
Katlyn Orthman Feb 2013
Will you be the one
To free my heart
Will you be the one
To put together the torn apart
Will you be the one
Who never let's me go

Can you be the one
Who can love when I'm not strong
Can you be the one
To show what's right and wrong
Can you be the one
Who cares when no one else does

I will be the one
Who lookis into your eyes
I will be the one
To give you a heart that never dies
I will be the one
That will give you the hand to help you up
