  • When You Are Gone

    What will become of me
    When you are gone?
    Will it be different to the last time?

    How long do we have left?
    Are our days numbered?
    I wonder about this all the time

    No-one can say
    You tell me “live for each day”
    Your wisdom divine

    So when you do go
    I’ll try not to follow
    My memory of you enshrined

  • Estranged

    How do two people who connect so well
    Become so estranged and break the spell
    Back and forth, to and fro
    “I love you, wait, I don’t know”
    Body fuck then mind fuck, that’s how it would go

    They needed each other in a time that was bleak
    But now he says nothing, refuses to speak
    Though she tries and tries, to no avail
    I guess she’ll retreat back into her shell

    Lucky him.

  • All Logic Is Damned

    Green light spinning round and round
    Rain sounds playing, what a sound, what a sound
    In my head the knife is calling
    Will I make it to the morning?
    We’ll have to see, as you see all logic is damned.

  • I Guess I Could Do Worse

    Hey
    How’s it going?

    Sorry to be annoying
    Just trying to fill a void

    It runs deep within me
    Don’t be annoyed

    If you felt this way
    I’d help you too
    But you don’t, it’s me
    I’m a big piece of poo

  • Unforgiving

    If moods are like the weather
    And my favourite weather is rain
    I hope it rains forever
    To keep away the pain

    The pain of living life
    Beats me down, hottest sun
    It’s truly unforgiving
    Please hand me a gun

  • Fear of Living

    So fragile and thin
    It’s buried within
    I’ll try to explain it
    But where to begin

    I first lost my mind
    When I was only a child
    It scared me, prepared me
    For a life of denial

    Denial of what?
    Stomach tied up in knots
    As I live full of fear
    Of eventual brain rot

    See I was never quite there
    And maybe life is unfair
    Still I’ll try, though I cry
    At my mind I still tear

  • Where Have You Gone?

    Where have you gone?
    Your light shone
    So bright
    Is it no longer on?


    I know you’ve been feeling strange of late
    In the pit of your stomach, an ache
    Crawling under you skin at night
    Do you really just want a break?


    From us, just tell me
    I’ll understand
    Just help me
    To know what you’ve planned


    As the last time we spoke
    You said you’d be fine
    “Unless I die”
    What’s going on in your mind?


    Your stomach would ache
    And I’d hold you near
    You’d been using a lot
    That was quite clear


    Then you never came back
    Just a void, full of black
    Where you used to be
    Just you and me


    Where have you gone?
    Are you okay?
    Will I see you again?
    I love you, my friend



  • Needles

    Fear can turn to anger
    I’ve seen this many times
    I know you only long to be free
    For your former life, you pine

    I’m so sorry that I did this to you
    I know it caused you pain
    Emotionally and physically
    And the trauma will remain

    It hurt me too, to go against your will
    The first time it shocked me, it haunts me still
    “I promise you it’s for the best”, in time we might see
    You are steadfast like a tree

    So after the storm, does the experience feel the same?
    When the calm has returned and you can smile again?
    I hope you can see it through a different lens
    As you begin to heal and mend

    Capacity was lost when you struggled the most
    I know it’s unfair, it was hell
    But remember this, precious neighbour
    You’ll have a story full of hope and better days, to tell

    You are amazing.

  • Confronting Feelings

    I eat to stop my feelings

    I eat to make them soar

    I eat too much and drink too much

    And end up on the floor

    I used to be so different 

    I used to have control

    I’m working on this, but substances

    Have truly taken their toll

    So see me in the future 

    What does the future hold?

    I can beat it if I can feel it

    Or so that’s what I’m told

  • I Shine

    Mind ensnared by you all this time
    Heart I shared with you, you crushed, though it’s mine
    Fuck off over there in the corner you swine
    Everything you said to me a lie, still I shine

    I shine because I’m rid of you
    I shine because you’re gone
    I shine because I’ve stamped you out
    Though it made me feel so wrong

    I shine because we never speak
    I shine because that’s it!
    I shine because we’ll never meet
    Stay gone, you piece of shit
