Cry baby, cry.
Your an emotional mess
Cry baby, cry.
I couldn't care less
Cry baby, cry.
Till' you can't cry no more
Cry baby, cry.
It's all you were good for.
I have no rythm
everyone says it lies within
I think that's just a bunch of bullshit
No matter what the result
In never comes to an end
You never fooled me with
Your words in bold print
THE END and CONTINUED
never worked
You never got the hint
Your commas and quotes
Never ending metaphors
I never misunderstood a thing
But pretending was all I was good at
Lying came second best
But acting was just a close third
Appologizing never came easy
No matter what the reason
Maybe being better never was the best
My act of treason
Was really only a test.
Chain her to the floor
Don’t let her go
Stand up now
You can take the blow!
Bars on the ceilings
Or is it the walls?
Polka dotted sheets
Or is it white after all?
There’s faces all around
All covered in dirt
I can’t hear a sound
No, no doctor I don’t want it to hurt.
Confinement hits you straight in the face
Leaving behind bloody marks
The walls are filled with wolves
The bath tubs are full of sharks
There’s vents on the floors
Spitting blood all over your shoes
The nurses are whispering secrets
In your ears until your face turns blue
Your hair seems to be gone
As well as your face
Your arms are falling apart
Your sides are tied with lace.
Needles in your back, your arms
They’re all around
All you can hear is alarms
And the sounds of the blood rushing in and out.
The people are screaming
There seems to be something wrong
Their leader Is dying
Serenading like a song
The children are running
Running around
The women are singing
Singing aloud
All I can do is sit straight ahead
Make up what the terror would be like in my head
Keep the ribbon tight round my neck
And keep my eyes on the prize like you always said
The nurses are staring in utter delight
At our squeamish faces
What a treacherous sight
Them tying the patients legs in laces all but tight
Keeping the pain to an upmost slight.
It’s when I’m just standing there
It’s when I simply stare
It’s when I’m leaving you all alone
It’s when we are dead down to the marrow of the bone
The slight movement of your hand
I would shutter at the thought
Of our hands moving
Even farther apart
Falling down
Not at all far from the ground
Grabbing on to the air
For more than was ever there
The sky seemed to darken
Along with the birds
The people may wonder
But actions speak louder then words
I took a shot or two in the dark
But honey I never lost
The boys and the girls
The boys and the girls
From all over the no where world
All the poems we wrote are all edged up in furls
Taken in ships
Drained of all thought
Left all alone
Nothing but memories were brought.
Glass eyes
Floating through my mind
Extenuating
All the poems and rhymes
Moving mouths
no hands in sight
The things you would see
In the middle of the night
Chips and splinters
The wood runs out
Porcelain faces
Be careful don’t shout
The faces staring
The wandering eyes
They want you darling
But no your mine
The people
They don’t actually care
They can say it
But could never hold your stare
The hands they move
The mouths they scream
The children are taken
Your life is worth more then it may seem
The outfits are innocent
The faces creep me out
They’re no longer lying
They’re out and about
The children
Seem to be amazed
The men are confused
The women all but dazed
Your tongue is precious
Your blood is sweet
Your skin so gentle
What a treacherous treat
The stares they linger
The lies they stare
Your throat is bleeding
Lost from the air.
Everyday I find more reasons
And everyday it makes more sense
You may understand
But you’ll never really care if I do or not
You may stand and listen
But you’ll never enjoy
And you may sit and watch
But you’ve never once joined in on the applause
The people are falling
Falling down
They hit the ground
With not a single sound
We heard the cries
The bitter yells
We saw the pain
The dirty ground
(chorus)We knew the faces
We knew the sounds
We knew the people
All around.
Come
upon me
Come
Upon me
Come
Upon me
Come Upon me
And take me
Away-ay-ay
Away-ay-ay
Away.(chorus)
Do you see my mind?
Do you see your kind?
Do you know what I’ll go through
For you to be with me?
(Chorus)
Just make up your mind
You have all the time.(x3)
(I have no time)
(chorus)
Away.
A razor to my head
A bullet to my vest
A car to a bumper
We'll put your thoughts at rest
A stitch to your dress
A story to your tale
A cavity to your teeth
You were gone before you leaned over
that rail.
