Fine

Nightmares turn to dreams
awakening me with screams
nothing is as it seems
but I'll be fine

I've been bruised and broken
with many words left unspoken
oceanic regrets I've been soaked in
but I'll be fine

Imprisoned in webs of misfortune
dividing my soul up into portions
threatened by levels of extortion
but I'll be fine

Hellos become goodbyes
laughs turn into cries
and I've come to realize
that I'm far from fine

Not Right

Never there when you’re in need
Always watching as you bleed
Suffocating as I breathe
Its just not right

I’ve left you all alone
Without a path to guide you home
Turning my heart to stone
Its just not right

Tears in your eyes sing
Rivers of pain that sting
Shields I’ve failed to bring
Its just not right

Teach me how to heal
Tell me it’s not real
Understand how I feel
How can I make it right?

Infinity Vs. Fate

Fate is but a mystery
Perceived by most as a chosen path
Others believe it to be outrageous
So they just point fingers and laugh
They don’t believe in a higher power
No sort of authority figures do they trust
They're simply living their own lives
Leaving those before them to collect dust
Infinity what is infinity?
Is it what we’re seeking for?
Is it the biggest waste of our lives?
Is it worth competing for?
forever is a long time
a risky commitment to make
be sure it’s what you want
before confirming your fate
Infinity and fate
The meanings aren’t easily construed
Yes they may sound similar
But there are differences between the two
Fate is the outcome predetermined by your actions
Infinity is the sentence you’ll be serving no subtractions
Infinity and fate
Such a dangerous combination
If not careful it can lead
To a life of abomination

Loser

No friends by his side
no money to survive
no meaning to his life
another waste of space

He possesses little compassion
he doesn't bother taking action
he holds no value or attraction
another waste of space

He lives beneath a hole
he has no morals or goals
he plays no important role
just another waste of space

He serves a pointless existence
the feeling is just so persistent
and it's annoyingly consistent
this space can be replaced

Painkiller

Whenever there's an aching pain
whenever there is too much rain
when things don't feel the same
you make it fade away

When I've become obsolete
when I have fallen in defeat
whenever I'm feeling weak
you make it fade away

whenever life leaves me in bruises
when I have no source to prove it
when I am mad and I just lose it
you make it fade away

When misery starts taking over
and there's no more four leaf clovers
as this world keeps getting colder
don't you ever fade away

Target Practice

What am I to you?
a wall at which you can throw weapons
well I won't take any more bullets
so you can get to steppin'
whenever you would screw up
I would always take the fall
I laid my life on the line
for you I busted my balls
I've done a lot of shit for you
and what do I get in return?
my skin is covered in flesh wounds
I've fallen victim to a nasty burn
you try to teach people
but they never fucking learn
talking sense into people
it never seems to work
my patience runs very thin putting me
on the verge of going berserk
so tell me what am I good for?
shooting bullets or throwing knives
pushing arrows through my chest
or pouring acid in my eyes
I guess I'm just a pile of shit
sitting around collecting flies
your cocky attitude and negligence
I so passionately despise
but apparently you're unconcerned
you don't even give a damn all you do
is feed off of decomposing objects like worms
when in the midst of your presence
no one can ever see the light
'cause you don't have electricity
you drown people in darkness every night
so I guess to you I'm just target practice

Paranormal

I'm not a mannequin I can feel
the emotional messages that you send
piercing me with great intensity
this should be counted as sin
you can't see me I'm invisible to the human eye
feel my paranormal presence within the fear you can't deny
you keep building this tower thinking you're invincible
I've lost all power which is incredibly mystical
therefore I've set out to destroy your perfect world
spinning you around in circles intentionally to make you hurl
unlike most pearls you'll never see the light of day
like a thief in the night you stole my heart now I have to make you pay
no it's not a jealousy thing I'd never stoop that low
feel me floating over your shoulder as I run chills up your spine ho
don't test the abilities of the supernatural
we'll leave you crying bloody murder
chopping you up like pieces of meat
adding new flavor to burgers
we'll climb inside your body
and take over your soul
then we'll leave you to die
allowing your corpse to rot and collect mold
