The Pain Before LifeIf there was no strife,More Like This
to counter - balance.
Then there'd be no life,
to reward your valiance.
It has to rain,
to get a rainbow.
There has to be pain,
before you can glow.
But being a pessimist,
can lead to disaster.
You have to be an optimist,
to live happily ever after.
So live happily before you die,
but remember: the cake is a lie...

LiarI don't know,More Like This
I can't just forgive and forget,
Not like last time.
Every time you walk out
Another dagger is thrown
Straight into my heart.
So many unhealable holes lay there
Some old,
Some fresh,
Some from you.
You're not the one who has to watch,
Watch the family fall apart.
Dad becomes so angry,
He doesn't know what to do.
Mum just falls apart inside.
She doesn't want to lose you,
But she just can't stand what you've become.
And Jake,
Poor innocent little jake.
I bet you never thought of him.
He's so young,
I don't know what it does to him.
How could you lie to us again?
One simple lie causes so much pain.
How can

With a pretty smile,
and story in her heart.
But who will listen.
Who's going to take the time?
She just wishes for a rhyme.
Just can't keep walking to one beat.
The beat of his name,
the beat he tells her to walk.
You've left me once; you'll just do it again.
But just let me live, because I'm not living life.
He's just an old pair of jeans, you just can't get go of.
For all the memories stories and laughs.
So burn me, burn my skin.
And let the new shin in.
because I want out with the old, and in with the new.
Because this girl just wants it to end.

New WingsA mournful look at the ground,More Like This
an anxious gaze towards the sky
We anticipate what it would be to fly
We don't know what's waiting for us
Who or what lies in wait to attack
What kind of friend's we will meet
or even when we will get back.
But with certainty of unknown origin
With a will of steel and a heart of fire
We shake our feathers for what is to come
We dream of diving deeper and soaring higher
And we know that some may fall
Some may crash and and some must stay landlocked
But the rewards are big and we are almost there
Our wings are getting old, and soon they'll be done
The goal is always closer than it may seem
So I'll

17. BloodI craved it, craved it like a drug that would never be satisfying enough unless I had more. More. That was all I wanted. I'd never wanted anything so badly in my life, so I went after what I wanted. I always got it.More Like This
Running my tongue over my lips, I studied the patrons of the night club, my eyes hunting for it. I wanted it so badly I ached. I ached everywhere with the need, just as my teacher had said. He said I'd crave it forever, that I would need it everyday and I found that I did. I found that it was the only way I could sustain myself for a day or more.
He was tall, with dark, milk chocolate skin and wide knowing brown eyes. His hair w

We all know its stupid
Ridiculous
Frivolous
Nothing makes you better than someone else
Only different
So why be so wrapped up in acting like it?
In staying in our own little worlds
Consumed with our own space
Why don't we venture out?
To see what else there is
We're all human-with nothing major out of place
Let's crack the system

False Savior My family is digging, in the underground ditches.More Like This
The big lovely lord, has refused to heal.
Our lives have simply been washed away.
We mean nothing, what went wrong?
I think it's crazy...
to go on believing.
God IS phony, fake, not a real SAVIOR.
He has hurt me, for the very last time.
Tonight, I join the dark side.
Rebelling, and joining in the evil.
I have layed down my single last flower.
I pick up, a big strong weapon.
I replace love, with thick gun powder.
From here, my life is over.

BNE- Where the Lines OverlapThe girl, tired from typing well into the night, shut off her computer, sighing as she did. After pouring her heart and soul into the electronic world, she felt a little better. She shut the laptop with a soft click and slid the metal computer off of her lap and onto the carpet beside her bed. Popping her joints and stretching, she breathed in deeply, smiling to herself. She had won.More Like This
After the months of uneasiness and stress, she had finally managed to figure out what she really wanted. She wasn't completely sure of the outcome and not totally over the friendship but she was finding life simpler, yet more convoluted. She stood up slowly, loo

You're RuledKneel down before your masterMore Like This
Pray to the one that owns you
Give your soul to the sacred for safekeeping
Your false god will only betray you
What if I said that god doesn't exist?
Would you call me the devil
Or pray for me to find ignorance?
Death is the end, not the beginning
Don't hold your breath to be saved
Look in your heart, I'll tell you what's inside
It's full of sin, repent and lies

5 minutes in the life of B-manI'm outside in the parking lot, my back to the wall and the collar of my coat turned to the wind. It's frackin' freezing. Not like southern freezing where you wear a coat n' you're good, like your arm snaps off and breaks into chunks of armcicle freezing. I like having arms. Gotta deal with it. I have an addiction to feed. I want to breathe smoke and ash and fire. They won't let me inside. Stupid frackin' laws. Just another way the man's tryin' to bring me down.More Like This

right behind the cover page
in a text book
like a tribute band
it's not the same
if you take another look
you just might see
well, maybe not me
but maybe what I should be
I'm something I'm not
it's not much but
it's all I've got
like hail falling down
amongst the rain
what a pain you know
pleading sanity
but it's not sane
once again it's so
soon you will know
like fresh fallen snow
it's easy to see where the tracks go
I'm something I'm not
it's not much but
it's all I've got
I'm something I'm not
it's not much but
do you want it or what?

Life Behind My MaskMore Like This
You think I'm some heartless monster who doesn't care what anyone thinks
Yet I'm far from heartless and I care about every little thing said about me
You think I don't care
Yet I do
You think I'm a bitch
Yet I act that way so you don't see behind my mask
"What's behind my mask?" you ask
The Real me
The one everyone forgot about
The one who's given up
Because you gave up on her

My Werewolf GirlMy Werewolf GirlMore Like This
Some people meet women at work, some at bars, some at school. I met my girlfriend when she was being virtually killed by her ex-boyfriend.
It happened during in the middle of the second year of my bacheor.
I was walking back home from seeing a late movie, when I heard deep animal snarl and a woman screaming. The good-natured guy I was, I ran towards the noise, but I wasn't really prepared for what I saw. A young woman was being torn into by a big dog. She was tiny in comparison to the beast, and had not hope of escaping.
During her pointless fight against the monster, she spotted me. Even today I still recall looking into

MusicMusic is my only friend.More Like This
It whispers in my ear,
assuring me that it will be okay.
A message sent out to masses on the airwaves
and yet it feels like it speaks directly to me.
Like the song was written for me and me alone.
Like I'm someone special.
It blocks out all the bad in the world.
All the pain, sorrow,
and the sound of my own lonliness.
Music will never leave me,
never betray me
or find something better.
It blocks out the angry cries
of a dying marriage in the next room,
and still somehow convinces me there is love left in the world.
Music is my one, my only,
music is my life.

Death of Language Can I tell you a joke?More Like This
Of course you can.
NO
Tell me the joke, I want to hear.
NO
There is no joke.
The joke is a bunch of letters, pulled from a hat
Put in a book.
The book is left alone, it closes.
The book is burning
Little hands reach, to save the book.
The hands burn and blister
There is no book anymore.
It's only a joke,
And they all laugh

I doubt my heart can wait till then
It beats in perfect harmony with the passing time
Counting the seconds you arent with me
If parting is such sweet sorrow
Why can I not see tomorrow
My world blackened and bittered
Since the second you werent with me
All flowers wither and die
And their remains do so lie
Tattered and forgotten
Quite useless now, just like me.

2012 teaser In the year 2012, the United States government declared that from then on the right to privacy would no longer be enforced. Microphones in cell phones would be turned on at all times, as well as cameras, even when the cell phone itself was not powered on. The same concept would be applied to televisions as well, which would be pre-installed in every new home after the declaration. The government would now control all electricity from outlets, turning Electronic Entertainment Devices on and off whenever they saw fit. Following suit of Europe, security cameras would now be placed in bathrooms (as well as every other room), public and privaMore Like This
