Last Chance

The past becomes the present
and the future is torn apart
I have no one left to resent
to blame for my broken heart

Dead birds on the sidewalk
are pretty much like sorrow
I can't sleep, I can't talk
I know I have no tomorrow...

The drink that took my soul
on that fateful blurry night
has finally pierced a hole
where once there was light.

And thoughts are scattered
as we smile and slow dance
you let go, my heart shattered
This was my one last chance...

Not All There

I don't want to sit and write
I want to feel this pain
void of any kind of light
as I let myself fall again

there aren't any right words
to keep me from breaking apart
nor enough lies in the world
to help mend my weak heart.

Soft hands running down my back
are hardly enough to fix me
and make me forget what I lack
or keep me from what I see.

I know I am weird and off
always drowning in strife
but tepid kisses aren't enough
to bring me back to life...

He knows I'm not all there
that's what makes me perfect
because he doesn't really care
I am just another reject...
