Seizure // Tantrum
04:03

i wrote songs of pain,
but I’m trying to write songs of love and joy again,
for them to remain, my songs of pain,
so bittersweet, they remind me of who I am,
but can I still be the same?
should I lose grip again
if I’m not in control
watch me letting go
this ain’t a seizure, this is a goddamn tantrum
my tortured brain,
dusty and gray, resembling an old ashtray
but cigarettes won’t replace therapy
try to clean it out, so much more to be
there’s something in my head, that I’ll have to face
on my own, it frightens me, but I’ll try to be brave
thoughts ramified, brittle and weak
still, in my own head I’m alone and won’t be safe

have to stay focused
stay in control
need to hide it
need to fight it
dissociative
breathe breathe breathe
fight, flight, freeze
clouded mind destructive thoughts
lonely behind empty walls
noose gets tighter
I can't speak
body's restless
bones are week
being tired all the time
feels like I've lost my mind
I don't believe me
do you?

A Cure

when your mind got bent so far
it almost broke your body
you pulled strength out of your weak heart
got back onto your feet to tell your story
you play your songs of despair
but conjure up words of hope
though you don’t wish to repair
the black and dull mirror you broke
like a second skin, the smell it stuck to you
and distorted an image, you have overcome,
the smell is gone, but thoughts linger persistently
you layed your past for everyone to see
looked upon who you were expected to be
stepped aside and strayed from the path
returned with a vision made from what you’ve torn apart
you’re done running from yourself
outran yourself, the biting cold
from within gave way for will to help
let you’re story be retold

Kaleidoscope

i feel the need to lose my self-control
because I've always felt invited to wreck what I would call home
long nights in a sleepless plight, kaleidoscope of what's inside
will they ever let me sleep? I swear I beg to be asleep
i won't let go of the poison that I call my own
there is no walking away
there is no turning your back
sure as shit there is no quitting for good
i'm a downward spiraling act
the need to feed the demons at my feet
is overwhelming and exhausting yet my way for inner peace
so please feel free to watch me be
insecure and helpless
addicted to my madness
overjoyed and awkward
embraced by all that makes me hurt

Memorial Day

i never thought I’d feel
the way I felt that day
losing focus for a second
felt like forever losing way
i never felt that helpless,
so lost and so alone,
amidst a crowd of loving people
trying to mend my battered bones
and why did I walk away
with nothing but a scratch,
while you had to stay behind
with a broken back
all of this I learned to treasure
it’s safely locked away
to be taken out and looked at,
a memorial of that day
the day I had to face you
and those who suffered more
their forgiveness, my relief
the only judgement I cared for
i’ll be okay
i am okay

Mirrors

let us paint pictures of ourselves
of our faces, of our smiles and our eyes
put ‘em up upon the wall
let them be mirrors and overseers in disguise
let us write poems about each other
about our wit, about our tempers, turn them into rhymes
but when the ink has become dry
we’ll find ourselves bound to words, caught between lines
colours will fade to grey, an empty canvas
words will begin to fade, blank pages
and as all art loses meaning, we too
slowly fade away
there are strange faces on our walls
still so familiar, piercing gaze, as cold as ice
cryptic words found in a book
passionless and meaningless, completely wild
no paintings of true beauty
no poems about the truth
no songs about love
no art can ever soothe
