Longing

Justin

1 min read

The frustration of longing It’s like you’re never listening No matter what I say But your eyes are glistening

I’m sorry I couldn’t be all you expected of me It’s so hard to accept I’ll never be the perfect man Long drive home But your arms don’t feel the same Here it goes Out the window It’s all for show

It’s like pulling out the rug From under my own feet No matter how hard I stand I’ll alwa...

World Made Of Coal

Justin

I block out all the noise

Wait for Everything here in you To be free Clear the Battlefield of noise To meet you out in the field Of wonder

Kill the noise Before it kills you Block it out And sift through What makes us whole again

It’s you I care for It’s you I long for It’s you It’s you

Laid down to waste Everything down here is but a bitter taste I long For The world to catch up instea...

Christmas

Justin

It’s Christmas Day The anxiety is killing me I’m Christmas Day Eating me alive How could I live up to what they wanted me to be How could I live up to what was expected of me Breathe in breathe out Don’t let them know what happens now As the oxytocin enters my bloodstream It’s fine I can’t be What they expected of me Inhibited by self loathing The blood from my wrist seeps through this clothing ...

Get A Grip

Justin

1 min read

Tell me the truth It’s not that hard I’ll turn away my face Let the mind begin to race

Tell me the truth It’s here I know so we’ll But here you escape to hell As well

I Am In hell As far as I can tell I left my mind I’m the wishing well You can’t wait to hear It call it’s here to tell You I’m sorry I’m sorry

But when I turn my face to black Your body interacts To sorrow To sorrow Get a grip ...

Wounded

Justin

I have no words to say You wont be here to stay I have a living breathing Heart split in two You’ve got my body With nothing to prove The red spills to blue It seems you have to Keep your mind inside Why can’t I say You’re not in the grey In the black and not turning back The stream of blood Bleeds into the mind But your curves are so divine

Here into now I can’t wear a frown I came to say I’...

Dying Body

Justin

1 min read

My body dying The world whispering Whispering I plant the seed to go I can’t see anything anyways I can’t escape this hell

When will you see the way I bleed? My body covering covering The way I see the light

Can we slow down? For just a little while I can’t go now These four walls hold me in this chair

What does it mean? The way my body breathes What does it mean? The way I can’t hear

Please ...

The Edge

Justin

1 min read

On the edge Staring down At the cliff Am I all that’s left

Down the barrel of a loaded gun Says the man to his son Leave me here It’s not worth it I’m not here to fear you I’m here to let you go

As we fall from the edge together It seems like tomorrow isn’t here It won’t come My life It’s come undone This game is done My song is sung

The prize I keep For myself Is not for you But for myself

I’...

Unwind

Listening to my heart instead of my head Makes me feel like I’m better off dead All the spinning The trials

I’m the afternoon My eyes and my ears Swell like balloons Heart is raked At a pressing pace My head it aches My heart it breaks

Can we forget everything we said yesterday? We can call it a mistake for where we lay Can we forget all the lies and fights We can forget it all to save ourselv...

Monster

Justin

1 min read

Lost, feeding on the heartless hero Here to take the monstrous heathen

Long drives Long nights Late fights Foresight

Prejudicial partnerships

I was your anti hero The monster was indispensable I fought I borrowed Sold and stole For what I could never afford On the floor It becomes so cold The hero beats it out for more The monster was here and now God can you find out how

I was never the offe...

Date

In another place in time She’s lost inside The wheels retract And let out a deafening sigh

She was never meant for this world I can’t say she’s getting old Clearly a dime a dozen Her heart is buzzing

When will she see That she’s not where she’s mean to be It’s here in time Where it all unwinds

Some times she’s in trouble The world had made her out to be a terrible thing But cuz fx doin s she b...
