To punish me for my contempt to authority, fate made me an authority myself. ~Albert Einstein~

If you’ve come to take me Please go right ahead. My mind is playing tricks on me Feeling lost inside my head. I don’t know where I’m going
Meeting every fantasy. Share with me your desires. Wear my Love paint it red. Walk with me when you’re tired. Waves of calm to soothe instead.
If I knew who I was, I would hav… Drug myself through the darkness,… But all I found was more devastat… The wind blows and my house falls… Shallow pools– just as easy to dro…
When the world gets too loud She soothes me When my heart gets too proud She cools me When my mind gets too cloudy
Bottom barrel– guess that’s your n… All ‘cause you refuse to play in t… Revenge getting old– it’s quite la… Can’t hold your head high with tha… A demon– you came here to tame.
Seeing their pain The story’s the same I hurt you. You hurt me. What is to gain Besides closer to insane
As an Introvert I’m not really One For starting conversations first. And it’s the dirty looks I always… That seem to hurt the worst.
What if I can’t break free What if I never truly see What if there’s still more buried In the deepest parts of me.. Will you still be waiting?
It’s like.. The rushing of a busy highway. Like... The back alley of a dive bar And the band is on intermission
Time for a reset Who will push the button first Can’t know what’s next Just trust the Universe Close your eyes
When they dont hear you... Must be another Twist– in the sick game. Know it all cocks the parrot back Before– he takes his aim.
Seeing the top It’s really the bottom. Universal Laws Were clearly forgotten. Grasping for straws
The eyes are always watching every night every day They want to know who’s talking to know just what they’ll say
It’s almost as if by design. Obliviously walking the line. Am I the only One seeing the sign… Revelations to blow the mind. The Ocean is tired of our ways.
Blank slate Is that what you call fate? Diamond inside the square shape. Never late. Take your time we set a date.
