Eternal martyrs
How can you be so blind?
We both know that you never been good at reading signs
Does cheating ring you a bell?
cause you're diving head first into it again
You've been told several times
but you don't mind
You are so shallow
Lil' princess is never satisfied
After owning the moon, she simply claims the sky
Her expectations are way too high
You never see your friends
instead you're slipping away
Completely mesmerized by eyes that don't blink
You never see your friends
You're out on a leash
in captivity
She got a hold on your mind
Guilt-tripping and emasculation are her passtimes
Lost without landmarks, in denial
but still so shallow
Lil' princess is never satisfied
Her ego's running the show
She's known to believe her lies
Her expectations are way too high
You never see your friends
instead you're slipping away
The time has come for you
to bite the hand that feeds
You never see your friends
You're out on a leash
in captivity
You never see your friends
instead you're slipping away
The eternal martyrs are manipulative
You never see your friends
You're out on a leash
in captivity

Healed from me

Healed from me
Another day has started and I still wear this overused disguise
a safety net for everyone I love
I know how my life seems perfect from the other side
As long as you don't try to cross the flimsy walls made from my phony smiles
I wish that my speech, could reflect my state of mind
(only once…….)
Sharing my burdens only once in my lifetime
I’m exhausted by the weight of life and choked by my own lies
(I’m all alone….)
I'm on a rooftop waiting to have enough guts to fly
I look at the light around me, slowly disappear
dazed by serenity abandoned by fear
a letter written by my tears
a painful souvenir
I know I've healed you from me
I hope you heal from me
The last night of my trek has finally came to an end
no one believed that i couldn't retrieve this little something to live for…
(this little something to live for…)
I wish that my speech, could reflect my state of mind
(only once…….)
Sharing my burdens only once in my lifetime
Im exhausted by the weight of life and choked by my own lies
( I’m all alone….)
I'm on a rooftop waiting to have enough guts to fly

The end of a story that never began
I find it particularly hard to look into your eyes
Haunted by inconvenient thoughts that could deteriorate our lives
and the people we know
Despite the facts, despite the lies
It goes to show....
Time is not on my side
Waves of temptation are colliding in my mind
Friendship and love are hard to sacrifice
Since then their fate rests in my hands
....so is mine
So I'll lie and I'll be stabbing knives
Honesty will bleed tonight
Cause if I don't I might lose what took so long to attain so I won't
let this happen
Everytime I see you walking by
You and your angelic smile
I think of what I've done then sigh
But your lack of interest towards me indicates that even though it's tough sometimes
It may be worth the try
I fooled you, that's the sad thruth
but it's not the reason why I kiss and tell on you
A slough of despond and I'm trying to avoid boredom
No longer since you're the one I set my heart on
So I'll lie and I'll be stabbing knives
Honesty will bleed tonight
Cause if I don't I might lose what took so long to attain so I won't
let this happen
Waves of temptation collide in my mind
Friendship and love are hard to sacrifice
Like they say, out of sight out of mind
Without you knowing I still have a chance
The simplest faux pas will be the end
of a story that never began

Angel without wings
I never thought a simple smile could be as powerful than the stuff I used to get high
You popped into my life, a gift from paradise
You can't imagine how you made me feel inside
I want to show that world that I can be a man
I want to show that world that I can be your dad
Now I need you to help me please
Please trust me and don't worry I'll be your superhero 'till the end
The time has come for me to change my life once and for all
I have the strength to fight
Goodbye illusionary bliss and ephemeral friends lost and missed
I know it will be hard sometimes but hold on tight and keep your dreams in mind and listen to what's growing in your heart
Daddy trust me and don't worry you'll be my superhero 'till the end
The time has come for me to change my life once and for all
I have the strength to fight
Goodbye illusionary bliss and ephemeral friends lost and missed
You bring me back to life with the million sparks flying around you
Can you read into my mind?
You're an angel without wings
The time has come for you to live your life
Don't be scared, I'll be on your side
A sweet and peaceful lullaby
Share this legacy with your child
I know it will be hard sometimes
but hold on tight and keep your dreams in mind

Smoke and mirrors

Smoke & mirrors
Innumerable,
the hours misspent are
Mind-numbing boredom
already took hold
of numerous people
Entrancing them all
Confining themselves between four walls
They're minions
They're millions
but still feeling forsaken
Pretenders, impostors
Nothing but smoke and mirrors
Interaction's slowly losing its significance
Without their five senses
How can they possibly discern
emotions veracity?
Seems doubtful....
Intimacy doesn't make sense anymore
Mirrors and cameras, the new trend in town
Bikinis and asses but don't dare call them whores
Everybody's doing it so what's the harm?
That urgent need
of deplorable deeds
Daily abound in my newsfeed
more than I could believe
Creating highlights,
compensating lies
Thus fulfilling empty lives
Close your eyes enjoy the ride
Don't let go
the real you
Reject your alter ego
Pretender, impostor
Cause its just smoke and mirrors
Credibility has died a long time ago
cause 90% of the time you're surfing
while curling one off
How many likes is this worth?
