Sad (Remove filter)
i miss being your daughter
we were close when i was little
you called me your sugar plum fairy
sat by my bed when my dreams were too scary
I didn't know then that our relationship was so brittle
you have mixed feelings about your own mother
maybe that's why you act the way you do
you rip me apart and then try to patch me up with glue
we both know you wouldn't ever do that to my brother
you ...

unachievable dreams
didn't wake up with the intention of being bad
I don't know why there's a pit in my stomach when no one is dead

the screams sound bloodshed
he says, "there's so much you wanna do"
and i obvert my eyes
wait around for a mental break-through
and make unachievable plans doing the highs
i wanna be a savior
and get th...

the moon and the sun
told me i’d only fail
laugh and my hopes and dreams
act as if i’m frail

you probably think you’re the moon, but i think you’re wrong
yo...

I get a little tired of it - folks who seem to think
they must be happy all the time or else they’re on the brink
of some traumatic end, oh yes, like everything is bad
if once in a blue moon they have to deal with being sad.
It makes no sense to me at all. Just what do they expect?
They should be happy day and night and never get set back.

Dislocated
Location unknown
No flesh or meat on the bone
Bereft of all comforting thought
This isn't what I was taught
I once knew a place
Where I knew every face
Now cold and dark
No warmth and no spark
I travel around in the void
Wondering round like a lost boy
And although I am able
Fully trained yet maimed and unstable
A ghostly belonging
Of betrayal ...
