Is It The Thought That Really Counts
I feel like the landlord Who’s left paying the rent I could fill up some billboards With things I've left unsaid I cook, do the laundry

What’s Left
Aren't we all a little "crazy" don't we tilt left, on the level We've become numb to the amazing falling victim to the devil

892
Broken... I just finished viewing a film from 2021, based on the true life events of an honorably discharged marine, Brian Brown-Easley, called breaking. It's an all too familiar story of a neglected soldier who has been forgotten, overlooked and abandoned following their injuries, (mental and physical) after loyally serving their country.

Well, I Do
** My body fights so hard to live although my mind has called it quits Gradually shutting down organs declaring it's braindead

Tattoos and tan lines Cigarettes and moonshine Weekends made for killing time Sweet barefoot memories Egg rolls and sushi

Oh, How Time Flies
It’s been seven hours and fifteen days When we stole away, middle of May We took a drive and spent the day At the dunes sunning and splashing in waves

Tracking Time
** It’s been seven hours and fifteen days Still, I can’t find the words to say I watched the hours all melt away From this human vessel of blood and clay

Primal Screams
I imagine the pinhead That tears open the door Spilling the unsaid Flooding over the floor Releasing how I feel All at once, bursting free

Cries Of Silence
My heartbeat races against my thoughts There they are, on the tip of my tongue Measuring myself to all my flaws Knowing I could never be enough

Alice In Chains
my mind keeps hiding in rabbit holes completing the tasks shielding my soul exchanging real for masks like Alice in wonderland

I Didn't Say That
"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me" That rhyme is often used as a retort to insults or taunts, suggesting that the speaker is not affected by the hurtful words. However, the sentiment expressed in the rhyme is often debated, as many recognize that words can indeed cause significant emotional pain and distress.

Things Better Left Unsaid
What I mean when I say: "Yeah, thanks...I'm fine" (and then, silent, again) **** * It's an easy answer to a question I believe, you don't really want to know the answer to.
