You’ve always been there for me
Each step I take in life
Your strength must have been divine
You’re weak and pale tonight
I’ll leave you just long enough to
Get me some rest
Your strength will come back in time
I’m wishing you the best
How could I know what I’d have to show
For the moment I believed it best
My life entwined with your heart and mind
Can’t you feel my loneliness
Empty room
Everything’s the same as yesterday
All except now you’ve gone away
And left me here with naught to show except this
Empty room
Only memories left on the shelf
You’ve taken all the best ones for yourself
And left behind your broken dreams and this
Empty room
Remember when we were so young
So full of hope and life
We loved to see the sun come up
Stay up and talk all night
But little did I realize the man I would become
So selfish and so immature
So hard for you to love
How could I know what I’d have to show
For the moment I believed it best
My life entwined with your heart and mind
Can’t you feel my loneliness
Empty room
Everything’s the same as yesterday
All except now you’ve gone away
And left me here with naught to show except this
Empty room
Only memories left on the shelf
You’ve taken all the best ones for yourself
And left behind your broken dreams and this
Empty room
Empty room
Holding on the very best I can
To all that I can be and what I am
I’m not sure what to put inside of this
Empty room
All my lonely days are done and gone
The emptiness will stay for just as long
As the pain is left to grow inside this
Empty room

The houses stacked so perfectly
But there’s no room to breathe
A neighborhood filled to the brim
But no one to call friend
A working mother races home to
To spend her night alone
A father too preoccupied to
Give up precious time
Alone in my world of fantasy
I see this world so differently
Don’t know how much more I can take of
This pointless misery
There’s a point when you’ll see the purpose in your life
Buried so deep within that you can’t see the light
Exterminate all the pain that weighs you down in life
You might think I’m insane, someday you’ll see I’m right
I see you all through different eyes
A higher state of mind
The zombies of this barren land
Could never understand
We’re better off without your kind
The deaf who seek the blind
There are no words left to describe
The pain I feel inside

Touch the Sky

A miracle created out of nothingness
Out of the womb this brand new life took its first breath
Hoping for the promise to bring meaning to this life
Once so lost the chaos welling up inside
I feel so desensetized
Smiling out loud living dead inside
The secret within getting harder to hide
I’m just trying to understand
I know the secrets of
The God-damned who pray for love
To heal all their wounds and bring peace
To chaotic lives
My disconnected mind
Deaf ears and eyes gone blind
Can’t see what a gift is this blessed child
Are you out there waiting?
Satisfied that all that’s lost is found
As I just stand here praying
That she can touch the sky while I’m still on the ground
This broken bond and open wound not healed with time
Gets harder every day pretending things are fine
She’s done nothing wrong but suffers all the same
A mother’s fallacies how could she be to blame
This fallen world has an evil mind
The only way she could ever survive
Wrapped in innocence for the rest of time
Somewhere only that God can find
God’s golden paradise
Awaits your precious life
The only gift left that I know how to give to you
There’s nothing left inside
But faith in the afterlife
I’ll never be able to fail you again
Are you out there waiting?
Satisfied that all that’s lost is found
As I just stand here praying
That she can touch the sky while I’m still on the ground

Nearer to the End

Youth was a failure to satisfy your needs
Growing up it’s harder to satisfy your greed
Now that I’m nearer to the end than the beginning of it all
Is this a life that’s worthy of the sacrifice?
Burning down my shelter to rebuild it twice as strong
Learning it’s much harder admitting that I’m wrong
Now that I’m nearer to the end will I be stronger than before
Will I look back and wish I’d only realized?

You taught me how to hate myself
Showed me how to wish I was never born
You made me believe that no one else
Cared enough to give me more
There is no blanket to bring warmth to this cold
No rain can fall that will wash away the pain
No light can shine bright enough to fill my soul
No price enough to make me love again
You steal my life with each breath you take
You fill my heart with the heaviest weight
You steal my words, my thoughts, and my faith
You take my love and just throw it away
You swore that this was everything
It’s not worth the time it takes to make things right
You proved this is what I deserved for
Holding onto my grudges for venom and spite
So now we’re at the end of things
You tell me I’m nothing without you still running my life
Now there’s no one listening
I’ll take my chances one bullet at a time

Superheroes

They wait in their temples
To fight for all the power and control
The weak and the simple
Disintegrate as waiting takes its toll
Are we living a little more each passing day
or getting closer to our death
Do I wait for a savior the come and rescue me
Or just stop holding my breath
I don’t believe in superheroes
No one can hear my cries for help
Screaming out loud but there’s nobody listening
I’ll just take care of it myself
They feed on our anger
They’re maximizing profits with our fears
Decay while they linger
Surviving just from drinking our own tears
They wait for a miracle
To come and help them exercise control
The weak and the simple
Want someone else to lift the weight off of their souls
I don’t believe in superheroes
No one is waiting to save my day
Screaming for life but there’s nobody listening
I’ll just have to do it my own way
