Life is something you do day by day
Whenever you cannot go on
Just remember what I say
It's not about how far you've gone
It's about finding the warmth on the way

You need to find what gives you strength
Something that will help you achieve great length
Something that will assist you in your endeavors
A permanent support forever and ever
For whenever you feel under the weather

After all what is a life worth if it is denied warmth
I can tell you from experience it is like the city of Corinth
You can feel like you have an unshakable base
But up from under the difficulty you cannot face
Will undoubtedly arise, and take you from that place

This is why I am telling you
To forget about what they say
You need to find that warmth
Hold on to it and let none take it away
It's the only way to keep nothingness at bay
I implore you to make your life not one to be mourn'th


With love,

The forlorn

The music flows through my veins
The only thing that numbs the pain
From living in a world so vain
A single string keeping me sane
Logic binds me like a chain
Something so useless and plain
I wished for the rhythmic rain
To dance down and brighten my day
It never came
Truly a shame

Depression

I was certain that I found my calling
It turned out to be a cruel prank
A trick so cold and appalling
My psyche was holed and sank
Forced to fold into an endless void
Reality on hold, a life toyed
Desperate and destroyed

I need somewhere to belong
Death won't take long
Heaven denied my application
My message was lost in translation
I am too evil even though I am God's creation
So I gave up on the false god and turned to Satan
Even Hell won't take me
Even the devil forsake me
I would rip him apart
Hang his entrails as a piece of art
For now I will roam
Home to home
Showing everyone
How my world is run

All through my life
Longing for a healing light
For someone to confide
For somewhere to reside
It seems those are hard to find
So I drift through the night
Not a kindred soul in sight
I turn to myself for an answer
Perhaps I caused my life's cancer
For now I stay in the shadow
The lonely man's manifesto
Who knows where I might go
I used to just follow the flow
But it led to an ocean of emptiness
So now I fight my way back upstream
Searching for a way out of this tempest
Wishing reality was just a fleeting dream
Wishing this world wasn't obscenely mean
Time to keep moving
I don't want to be seen

Love is something
I thought I was above
I felt I was tough
I suppose not enough
I feel I am missing
Part of my being
A feeling you can't explain
No joy and no pain
Is more painful
Than everything ever
If I can't feel love
Will I ever know life
Should I end it now
To know paradise
