    -Shattered Screams.- {Featured.}

    I can't sleep tonight, tossing and turning in my bed;
    The pain and anguish pounding through my head,
    The sheets are messed, the blankets are tossed;
    And inside this hollow universe, I am lost.

    I prayed to God tonight, to come and take me away;
    Take me to a better time, a better place,
    My thoughts are clouded, hurt pushing through;
    My onyx heart from deep within, still crushed in two.

    I thought I saw you standing there tonight, from the corner of my eye;
    Looking upon me all wrapped up in your lies,
    But when I turned my head to look, there was nothing but a lamp post there;
    At my soul, it began to tear.

    I counted the stars tonight, anything to take my mind off of you;
    The stars twinkling in my misty eyes, lying upon the midnight dew,
    Tears rolling down my rosy red cheeks;
    I haven't seen or heard from you in weeks.

    I ran away to hide today, down on highway thirty-nine;
    Lost in memories of you, losing track of all time,
    Shattered screams echoed in the hollow night;
    Feeling deep within my soul, so much spite.

    I almost died tonight, underneath the moon so blue;
    And for what I am doing to myself, you never knew,
    You left me standing there that day, got into your truck;
    Waved good-bye as my lost heart was struck.

    I remembered who you were tonight, the man I once knew and loved so much;
    Gone, with but one last touch,
    Always remembering, as time stands still;
    That I love you Dad, and I always will.

    -My Final Good-byes.- {First one i could find, i have one from when i was ten, but i can't find it lol}

    Im sorry but life just is not worth this pain,
    its time for me to say my good-byes,
    lets take one more stroll down memory lane,
    please didn't cry;wipe the tears from your eyes.

    Its better this way,
    but please didn't you forget,
    i Love u all more than words can say,
    but this is one thing i know ill never regret.

    Each cut is a step up to heaven's door,
    one more and i'll be there,
    I just can't stay here anymore,
    this life i cannot bare.

    So i pick up the knife and cut,
    one more step and i'm at the door,
    i have a sinking feeling in my gut,
    but the door opens and i take my first step onto heavens floor.

    -Irrational Angel.- {Italian Sonnet.} {Newest.}

    Irrational angel, humming so sweet!
    Tickling ears with the words that make you weak;
    Shaking as her cold hand graces your cheek
    With soft riddles as the lovers lips meet.
    Quivering with ecstasy, hearts beat
    Hiding your smile, with feelings so meek
    mixed emotions, bound in a bloody sheaf
    Your life cloned to a pawn, and she knows the cheats.

    A face so beauteous - - a dress so white - -
    Breath coated in nicotine, she lightly breathes,
    Sweat dripping off of your temple it seems
    that reality hit you hard tonight.
    With your last breath, you lost all dignity.
    So goodnight my darling, may you rest in peace.

    Truth (first not on the list but first one i ever wrote)

    This world is dead, there is no hope
    not one survived not even the pope
    the world has been destroyed, the light has faded. what happened to everything God had created?

    all this around me can't be true
    what happened to everything i ever knew? all these things must be real
    it caused wounds that will never heal. we were all paralyzed by our fears, and now we are all drowning in our own tears.

    our friends are all rotten, our family dead. we pray to our God, to heaven their led. our life comes down and crashes, all that remains are ashes. every thing's burnt, destroyed, blown up. in the remains of the church lies the bishop.

    no love remains, there's only hate.
    perhaps in fact, this was our fate.
    and after this you'd think they'd stop. the water that's left are just tear drops.

    enough blood has shed, please stop this now. go on shake hands, in fact just bow. throw guns away, destroy them all. keep on fighting and you'll all fall.

    But go ahead and lay more to rest, at least you'll say you did your best. perhaps there still might be a chance, to rebuild this planet, destroy the trance. but the minute another gun is fired, our hope is gone, our chance backfired.

    Bloodless (Featured)

    I stay in the darkness, where i belong.
    away from the human's where everything's wrong.
    i used to be human, or so i thought.
    but despite all my disguises, it all was for naught.

    one cannot run from oneself, i am my own enemy.
    i can't change who i am, i am what you see.
    a creature made only of flesh and bone.
    there is nothing more, than this which is shone.

    if i deny the truth, only pain will i find.
    if i lie to myself, i only kill my mind.
    i cut you, you bleed, cut me, there's nothing.
    i am but a vessel, a non circled ring.

    i do not exist, nor should i be with breath.
    i live with no purpose. a life without death.
    no heart to be broken, no mind to expand.
    but still i can feel it, like a wandering sand.

    will i fade away, turn into a memory.
    what else am i good for, at least a story.
    shall i be remembered, shall i finally walk free?
    shall i finally laugh happily? shall i finally be?

    My Guardian Angel (Latest)

    I stand here protected, as one guarded child.
    I sit alone safely, where nothing is wild.
    Never been in danger, never in harm's way.
    and all of life's challenges, waited at bay.

    i have always been happy, for I've never felt pain.
    my angel stands by me through sun snow and rain.
    she is always smiling. and a smile she receives.
    she tricks enemies away, or is it me she deceives?

    I have always been guarded, and so never in fear.
    and I stay locked up always, year after year.
    have not seen a human, for she said they are bad
    and even though i am healthy, i remain sad.

    have i been missing out, is there much more to life,
    could i someday have children and maybe a wife?
    I must see it for myself, no longer can i wait.
    i must be fragile, for fear is a human trait.

    i wanted the experience, yet she locked me in.
    i tried to run away, but she will always win.
    I'm stuck here forever, i cry through the night.
    and for the first time ever, i am feeling fright.

    so long's gone by now, i still am stuck here.
    i now cry every night, for real life is so near.
    but here i shall stay, until my final breath.
    so is she My Guardian Angel, or my Angel of Death.

    This is the first one that I ever featured:

    Nighttime Seagull

    Ocean breeze keeps me awake at night,
    salty air calms insomnia,
    nighttime seagull calls my name
    screeching it into the false dawn.

    I am drawn by the pull
    of a memory of hard sand crunching under my feet,
    the finding of a lone seashell,
    the discovery of a beached seahorse
    the feeling of undying freedom,
    of water so vast and ghastly
    it could pull you under in a single wave,
    and smash your suddenly frail body against the rocks,
    just when you were thinking that you were strong,
    just when the thought entered your head that you could resist...

    I cannot now,
    and find myself getting out of my bed
    and silently climbing out of my window,
    and down the cobbled path that leads to the beach.

    to a place were waves crash against a precipice,
    inviting, begging, becoming, pleading with me,
    that all it takes is another step
    Oh, such a brief fall,
    the feel of icy water,
    and then indifference. bliss. ending.

    But the nighttime seagull screams at me
    in a clear, beautiful voice,
    that I still have a choice,
    and a chance,
    that I can take a step back,
    and build my life again,
    brick by lonely brick, with sand to hold it together.
    Sand and water, like the substance underneath my suddenly cold feet.
    and I turn around,
    hang my head,
    and admit defeat.
    There is no death for me, not today,
    I will suffer on,
    like a ship in a storm that can never reach the bay.

    But as I give that strange seagull
    one last, searching look,
    I see all I want to see...

    In the dawning of a new day,
    Enough hope to last me through the storm.

    This is the first poem I ever wrote (on this site) before that I had just scribbled unintelligibly.

    Thank You

    Thank you for being there,
    Every time I look up,
    And thanks for reminding me,
    Of the small, important stuff.
    You\'re living proof that a single smile can brighten a day,
    And one kind word,
    Can drive the blues away.

    Thank you for caring,
    When I was left alone,
    For being the first to greet me,
    For treating me like a friend,
    and a person.

    Thanks for brushing away my faults, like you really didn\'t care.
    For being the last one to stare,
    No matter what I had decided to wear.

    Thank you for trying,
    And thanks so much for succeeding,
    To drive the blues away with a smile,
    And persuade me to give happiness a trial.

    And this is my latest. Have fun.

    Dream

    I'm sorry that I failed you
    I did not try hard enough
    My mind told me
    That I wasn't good enough
    And I believed it
    Simply because
    I have never known any different
    You were the first to tell me
    That I could do anything
    Absolutely anything that I wanted
    And I wanted so much to do this
    But then my mind failed
    For you are the only one
    Who believes in me
    And when you're not there
    Neither is my dream
    So I forget
    I become weak
    Then when I wake up again
    To the truth that you told me
    It is forgotten
    I am alone
    And the dream slips away.

    My Life Sucks (1st Featured)

    Fires burn my soul until it is gone,
    It's night to me, whether day or dawn.
    Tears fall down my cheeks onto the cold ground,
    Darkness takes over when no one's around.
    Look in the mirror, and miss the old me,
    Before cheerful, now depressed and edgy.
    My cheeks are red, my eyes puffy from tears,
    What has happened to me over the years?
    I feel as if no one cares anymore,
    People laugh and call me a s**t or wh**e,
    But they do not even know me at all,
    They want to see the mighty Erika fall.
    They love watching me cry, and walk alone,
    My sadness has become so dang well known,
    Someday you'll see that you pushed me too far,
    But the things that you said will leave a scar.
    Someday you'll hear that I'm finally dead,
    Cause I let what you said go to my head.
    Bet you won't cry when I lay underground,
    Bet you will just think, "Oh well, she's He*l bound".

    They Never Love Me Too

    I admit I've fallen in love,
    and thought that my man, fell from up above.
    But no matter how hard I ever try,
    All he'd say is I don't like you, goodbye!
    I cant ever figure out what’s wrong with me,
    Every night god hears a plea, coming from me,
    To send out a miracle, let me be loved too,
    Instead of being tossed aside like an old shoe

    The End is Here (Newest)

    Fires burning, bombs blasting away,
    The final night, no sight of day.
    Don't be sad, please don't cry,
    The end is here, say goodbye.

    Lightning flashing, thunder booms.
    Tonight all will face their dooms.
    The war going on will take control,
    Years of fighting will take its toll.

    R.I.P. soldiers who've lost their lives,
    Send my regards to their wives.
    I go off tonight to become a hero,
    I will lose my life on ground zero.

    Goodbye darling I'll miss you so,
    If I don't return, what to do you know.
    One final kiss and off we fly,
    The end is here, say goodbye

    On the war ground beside my friends,
    As bombs and bullets the enemies send.
    Shot in the heart, one final breath,
    This is the end, I've faced my death.

    Masks of the World {First One}

    Hope was all she carried
    the day she knew she was married
    to a man filled with rich and fame
    But behind the mask layed the shame

    Another woman layed hidden in dispair
    Her body cold and bare
    Outside she smiled evermore
    But that hid her hidden sores

    A little boy arrives at school
    Actions all well and cool
    You'll never realized his secret pain
    his broken family filled with vain

    Tears of a baby cradled and all
    No one replying to it's call
    Left out in the abandoned plain
    Wet and chilled from early rains

    Masks that hides what really is
    There are many yet so easy to miss
    Sadness portrayed as glee
    A pain no one can ever see

    Thunderstorm {Featured}

    Knives surrounding my every thought
    As the rain pounds against my solemn dreams
    There's a thunderstorm inside my heart
    Where blood flows freely down my streams
    Shredding my dwindling soul apart
    Ripping, tearing at the endless seams
    Bringing shock to my system of motions
    Paralyzing inner defiant emotions

    Rivals between thunder and lightning
    Echoing within a hollow, shallow mind
    Lashing at each other till their ending
    When one defeats the other side
    Bringing another string of decaying
    An uncivil rising and descending tide
    A graveyard underneath the power
    Where the shadows wait to devour

    Darkness and light begins to gamble
    For the right of death and forever pain
    Testing to see who is the most able
    Without being consumed till insane
    Drenched in sweat, seen as pitiable
    Neither side has lost or gain
    All this lies within my very soul
    This era inside of lost control

    Vampire Seduction {latest, though Not my best}

    His kisses down my naked chin
    His eyes gentle with darkening sin
    His hands cupping my delicate face
    Caressing slowly with elegant grace

    Enchanting me with his soft whispers
    Stroking my neck as my red lips purr
    Embracing me in a dark sinful desire
    Licking gently with all that lust require

    My hands entwined in his drooping hair
    Playfully luring him to a smothering affair
    His heat succumbing all my self-restraint
    As my tender mind slips into a silent faint

    Feeling his lips graze upon my skin
    His teeth pricking the secrets within
    Drink your fill in my sweet body
    Drink my sugar blood inside me

    Afterwards the party has only begun
    Then it's time for me to have the fun
    So sip in pure joy and caution as well

    Featured: The Dreamer

    It seems to the dreamer, the dreamer shall never wake up. Always lost in the darkness of depths and nothingness. If the dream where to shout, no one would here him, and if he were to cry, no one would be there to comfort. What should the dreamer do in his world of make believe? Make up a new ending? But can one dreamer really do that?

    And if you tell this dreamer to dance would he dance or stick his tongue out at you? If you told him to believe would he believe? If you told him to love, could our dear dreamer love? The dreamer is out subconscious. Can we tell our subconscious to dance? To believe? Or more importantly, to love? Can the dreamer be independent without the person?

    If you tell the dreamer to scream, he just may scream. But what if he no longer can? No longer wants to or thinks (perhaps knows) no one can hear. What then, will our screaming dreamer do?
    We are the dreamers of reality. No matter how much one screams, they will never be heard. I now dare this dreamer to be heard. Scream loud, I dare you. Cry your heart out dreamer. Just see how many really care as much as they say. I dare you dreamer.
    I. F**king. Dare. You.

    First One Ever: Suicidal Love

    With a delicate soul,
    And broken wings,
    She is left alone,
    Without her dreams.
    This little girl,
    She weeps and cries,
    She's mad at the world,
    And doesn't know why.
    No one can help her,
    Yet no one will try,
    So her thoughts are horrors,
    Of suicide.
    With everything to hide,
    She lingers in bed,
    As the thoughts of suicide,
    Run through her head.
    She began to dream,
    With a fitful sleep,
    In her head it would be,
    Much too deep.
    She drowns in her thoughts,
    Everyday,
    It's not her fault,
    But she will have it her way.
    She will rid of this place,
    And be gone forever,
    So she begins with haste,
    And devises a plan so clever,
    That she never sees,
    Her one mistake.
    This will cost no fee,
    And she will never wake.
    But the one thing she didn't know
    Was that there was someone,
    Who truly loved her so.
    So now that she's done,
    The lover lowered his head.
    He whispered in her deaf ear,
    'You were my one,
    You were my dear,
    And I can not live,
    Without you near.'
    So he took her knife,
    Placing it to his heart,
    To take his life,
    And from this world part.

    Latest: Children Abuse {CinqTroisDecaLa Rhyme}

    Silent songs of horror display through freezing children's veins,
    Many darkened pitied nights among the saddened days remain,
    Telling the stories of a child's lost, broken, battered soul,
    Whispering as the child fails because of the darkened cold.
    Listen closely to this child's scared cries out among the earth,
    They struggle to be heard through other cries in the universe,
    Realizing their lost hopes and single chance at life was a curse,
    Beckoning as the tragedy creeps closer, creating pain,
    Settling with the thoughts that won't stop - they are sunk in too low,
    The battered children never found, on that night, what they were worth.

    The CinqTroisDecaLa Rhyme, a form created by Laura Lamarca, consists of one 10-lined stanza.
    The rhyme scheme for this form is AABBCCCABC and a syllable count of each line is 15.

    never got in fights.
    But his friends never saw him
    after school at night.

    Every problem thrown his way
    he fought it to the end.
    His family and friends
    nicknamed him superman.

    Saving damsels in distress
    standing up for the weak.
    He had the intelligence of a genius
    the room always quite when he'd speak.

    But nobody knew what happened
    late every single night.
    When Johnny was caught in the middle
    of his mother and father's fight.

    Every day after school
    Johnny would walk home alone.
    Come home to his parents,
    to a family with a heart of stone.

    Objects were thrown
    as they fly across his face.
    He tried so hard to please
    but he was seen as a disgrace.

    His grades would start to slip
    and he would fight even more.
    But the more that he fought
    the harder he was thrown to the floor.

    Friends began to leave him
    people ignored him as he spoke
    as hard as he tried to fix it all
    his life was only seen as a joke.

    Bottles and knives still flying
    from one room to the next.
    Giving up on everything else
    he took advantage of one object.

    He slowly cried as the pain took hold
    remembering the life once adored.
    Brought down to this hopeless sham
    a life now only ignored.

    With his last remaining minute
    he reached for a paper and pen.
    Leaving a note for whoever cared
    or cared for a life that had been.

    Days had past since then
    before he was found
    his parents killed each other
    the house no longer made a sound.

    Old friends came again
    to see the horrible site
    No soon after did they find the note
    that the young boy did write.

    Everyone held their breath
    as the note was slowly read.
    Written with four crimson words
    "Your Superman is Dead."

    A Final Prayer [First Poem Ever]
    by †!♪~*`Bryce Dressler`*~♪!†
    ((it has been edited since I wrote it...))

    A slow rolling tear
    Fell down his cheek
    As he stood over her bed
    he began to feel weak

    He couldn't believe it
    No way this was true
    He couldn't live without her
    He wouldn't know what to do

    He dropped to his knees
    At the head of her bed
    Looked up to the ceiling
    While crying he said,

    "Why'd you do this god
    Why'd you take her from me
    I need her so much
    Why can't you see

    It can't end this way
    No, she can't die
    God please don't do this
    I can't say goodbye

    She can't go away
    Not here, not now
    I'll do anything to bring her back
    Please just tell me how

    Take the life from me
    Take my heart and soul
    God please bring her back
    I don't care what the toll

    Take the blood from my veins
    The breath from my chest
    I don't care if I die
    Just put me to rest

    He stopped speaking for a minute
    As she layed there slowly dying.
    The only sound to be heard
    Was of the teenage boy's crying

    His tears crashed to the floor
    As he barely made a stand
    He reached across her body
    And gently held her hand

    As he wiped his eyes
    He couldnt understand
    Why'd this have to happen
    Why'd it have to end?

    He had one last thing to do
    As he watched her lay
    He had one last minute
    One last thing to say

    "I have one more thing to ask
    a favor, God, from you
    If you are going to take her
    Can you please take me too?"

    Again he fell to his knees
    Not knowing what else to say
    He held her hand tight
    Not ready to give her away

    But then he heard the monitor
    Beep for the final time
    And after that, all to be heard
    Was the single flat line.

    He let her hand go
    And kissed her on the cheek
    As more tears came to his eyes
    He prayed they'd soon meet

    Although she is in heaven
    Past the clouds and above
    They could deny him her body
    But could not deny their love

    And when he gets to heaven
    He will soon see
    She will be waiting
    To be together...Eternally

    Watching Life Blow Away [Newest Poem]
    by †!♪~*`Bryce Dressler`*~♪!†

    Life is like dust
    it blows in the wind
    erasing all memories
    of pain and friends.

    With one fatal sweep
    it all can end
    It all disappears
    and all lives mend.

    Everyone forgets
    when the dust clears
    erasing all paths,
    the blood and tears.

    Nobody remembers
    the pain endured,
    the cries of suffering
    from a life uncured.

    Ignoring the shouts
    from every day
    as they watched his life
    slowly blow away.

    I'm in!!! lol Thanks! This seems like an awesome contest! =)

    My first one that's featured...

    ~*~"Depression"~*~

    Clenched fists
    Tear-stained eyes
    Scarred wrists
    Muffled cries

    Hurt and afraid
    All alone
    The mistakes made
    Were unknown

    Innocence sold
    Lost anew
    Heart of gold
    Turned black and blue

    Promises broken
    Memories fade
    Shattered token
    Shining blade

    Piercing skin
    Let it bleed
    Pain within
    Torn indeed

    Whispered sorrows
    Endless cries
    No tomorrow
    Say goodbye

    One last time
    Lift the knife
    Such a crime
    Taking a life

    Okay, my first poems were when I was like 7 years old (lol), but my first one on this website is on my old account, which is prettyinpink20, and here it is:

    ~*~"Letting Go"~*~

    Dark secrets, deep thoughts, dreams, and memories
    Are what I hold on to
    You say, “Let them go.”
    But I can’t; it’s too hard
    I have to hold on.
    “You can be free,” you say.
    I know, but I just don’t understand.
    “I know you desire to let it all go.”
    I do, but I need help
    “I’ll help you,” you say.
    How? It just doesn’t make sense to me.
    Doesn’t sink in.

    But I’ll try to let go
    I’ll try to be free
    To understand you better
    And to understand me.
    I won’t hold on now
    Only to you
    Because only you matter, God
    I can see it
    And I’ll try to live it out now.
    For you, I’m letting go.

    And my latest poem...written for a contest...

    ~*~"My Only Chance"~*~

    Sitting in the front row
    I tremble and I grieve
    The fact that you're not with me
    I just cannot believe

    The piano keys are playing
    I try hard not to cry
    The worst day of my life
    Was the day that you did die

    I remember all the good times
    I remember all the bad
    The times that we were happy
    The times that we were sad

    With the memories replaying
    I wonder and I question
    Why you had to go
    For you were my obsession

    I walk up to your coffin
    I reach to hold your hand
    I smile through my tears
    This surely wasn't planned

    I look at your pale face
    I take my one last peek
    I walk away from you
    The tears trickling down my cheek

    "I'm sorry," I whispered softly
    "But now it's time for me to go."
    As I lift the gun to my head
    I pull the trigger and it blows

    For I only wanted to be with you
    You were my focus, my trance
    Killing myself was the only way
    To be with you, my only chance

    Punch the Wall

    Hating
    Frustrating
    Denying
    And lying
    Pathetic
    Rejected
    Destroying
    The expected

    (Chorus)
    Punch the wall, punch the wall
    C'mon
    Punch the wall, punch the wall
    C'mon
    Express your rage in ways
    In ways you can't explain
    Punch the wall, punch the wall

    Sanity
    Escaping me
    Collapsing
    And trapping
    Destroying
    The mourning
    Replying
    The dieing
    And killing
    The crying

    (Chorus)
    Punch the wall, punch the wall
    C'mon
    Punch the wall, punch the wall
    C'mon
    Express your rage in ways
    In ways you can't explain
    Punch the wall, punch the wall

    Finding
    The hiding
    Forgiving
    The living
    Never

    (Chorus)
    Punch the wall, punch the wall
    C'mon
    Punch the wall, punch the wall
    C'mon
    Express your rage in ways
    In ways you can't explain
    Punch the wall, punch the wall

    Punk Rock Girlfriend

    She died her hair black with red streaks
    Her kinda life is the one that I seek
    Shes the girl that makes my knees week
    She's my punk rock girlfriend
    She punched that guy right in the face
    Her parents think she is a fucking disgrace
    I just love the way that she tastes
    She's my punk rock girlfriend

    (Chorus)
    I got a punk rock girlfriend
    I hear her voice inside my head
    She pierced her tongue just for me
    My rocker chick shes gonna be
    I got a punk rock girlfriend

    She spit right at the cop
    When he pulled her over for a routine stop
    Didn't care for what he thought
    Ya she's my punk rock girlfriend
    She spent two nights in jail
    Before I went and payed her bail
    But really she didn't care
    Cause she's my punk rock girlfriend

    (Chorus)
    I got a punk rock girlfriend
    I hear her voice inside my head
    She pierced her tongue just for me
    My rocker chick shes gonna be
    I got a punk rock girlfriend

    We broke into the punk concert
    When I had a security shirt
    Didn't believe it was gonna work
    Ya my punk rock girlfriend
    Rocking out in the mosh pit
    Never ever ever gonna quit
    Got to meet the band no bullshit
    With my punk rock girlfriend

    (Chorus)
    I got a punk rock girlfriend
    I hear her voice inside my head
    She pierced her tongue just for me
    My rocker chick shes gonna be
    I got a punk rock girlfriend
    I hear her voice inside my head
    She pierced her tongue just for me
    My rocker chick shes gonna be
    I got a punk rock girlfriend

    Streets of Jagged Wood

    I walk along these streets
    Of jagged wood
    My blood it drains
    Out through my foot
    The pain can't be
    Felt no more
    My heart is that
    Of an open door

    (Chorus)
    I can't stop along these streets
    Wails of their agony following me
    Body infected with disease
    Continue walking as it bleeds
    Because I'm walking on jagged wood

    My skin dries up
    Under the sun
    My shadows my friend
    My only one
    My sight is gone
    My ears are weak
    No strength to move
    My muscles to speak

    (Chorus)
    I can't stop along these streets
    Wails of their agony following me
    Body infected with disease
    Continue walking as it bleeds
    Because I'm walking on jagged wood
    That small sound is that of heart beat
    Their pain is weight on top of me
    My obligation to live is done
    Let the rest of me burn under the sun
    Because I'm walking on jagged wood

    My heart has stopped beating
    No strength to revive it!
    My blood has stopped bleeding
    The sun has dried it!
    No voice to scream!
    No mind to dream!
    I'm dead now
    Or that's how it seems!

    (Chorus)
    I can't stop along these streets
    Wails of their agony following me
    Body infected with disease
    Continue walking as it bleeds
    Because I'm walking on jagged wood
    That small sound is that of heart beat
    Their pain is weight on top of me
    My obligation to live is done
    Let the rest of me burn under the sun
    Because I'm walking on jagged wood
