Ride 04:11
Ride Oh my god! How am I still standing I thought that this was it but how can I quit All these harlots around me I try to breathe it in lights are flashing But the air is so thick again Where does this story begin? Another bottle is this the end? I never thought I'd see the difference. I can't see again, I can't breathe it in. I'm falling down, I am falling down! Lights out this is a black bodies everywhere you can't feel it in the air? Baby I know cause we're not made for this Take my hand and just trust me Another night another bottle this is it bitch now cough up all the shame you swallowed! Fee fii foo fum You aren't ready for this mother fucking shit Got your mouth on backwards take another sip Passed out sideways watch your mother fucking slip You don't know me you don't know shit And deep down inside you know You aren't tall enough for this fucking RIDE

Bruises 03:25
Bruises It started out as taps and we were just a playing, I can clearly remember her saying. Well taps become slaps that then became punches, I guess now I know what real abuse is. Oh god I thought she’d never really loose it But I guess pretending to love someone can do this. How the hell did we both get into to this, and how the did it become abusive. It's bean years that I have had to hide the bruises And scars, if only I could loose them. Contusions, confusion, this thing you call love is just an illusion! And the best part about this moment was when she died, inside the moment that you realized I was gone. Cause I'm done and I can't breathe And the scratches have just begun to bleed. It's bean years that I have had to hide the Bruises Contusions, confusion, this thing you call love is Just let me leave and just let me go I'm Can't you see that we can both be happy?

No Legacy 04:21
No legacy If love doesn't have a picture. then why do we dismiss her, from loving who she wants when she falls close eyed for her kisser? when she opens up her eyes and finds out that it's not a mister? But she is floating on cloud nine all your hate turn into this Twister of emotion. These feelings that she had are now drowning in the ocean, forced to drink the potion, to fix her because she doesn't fit in your perfect little picture? how fair is that? You call that love, how fair is that? You demand that she loves someone else but that's not where her heart is at? You just care about yourself but maybe that's just what you should do because the choices she will make she will learn to make with out you. I know, there's a point to make and a point to prove But I hope, that you know that you have so much more to lose But just know, she won't be here forever cause afters she's gone You're going to wish that you never said never Hopeless helpless little girl, you think that you can fix her? You widen up her eyes to that perfect little picture. To diminish her view to make her think that she has to love a man that doesn't understand. He's a monster a monster in disguise You think that he's so perfect but your morals got you blind! theirs bruises down her arms and yet you fail to see the signs that she is a victim of abuse and you made her lose her mind. Because it wasn't right? You are just so blind and yet you claim that you have sight while she lies in bed dreaming of what she really wants at night but one day she will wake and she will say, I am beautiful so what if I am gay? so here is your chance to accept me this way or today or I'm walking away. Walking away. No legacy, shes now where she wants to be true love is blind that's what you don't see. No legacy. No legacy.

Misconceptions Picture perfect poison practice What can I say? They want a picture perfect image Of what they think All their lies and all their fingers pointed at you They pull your string just to see what kind of tricks you can do I don't know why we hide who we are Just to please the masses They try to lock out all the world Quarantine they hold us captive I never thought it would be you Who could make me hate me I don't fit in because I'm fucking different I never let my colors show You can sick my dick and know That I will never conform to the masses And if you don't you can kiss our asses You try to hide who you are but they still see your scars You try to be who they want But they will tear you apart It's not you, it's not me It's not who I want to be They try to put a face on this Fuck being famous I woke up staring at the ceiling Am I good enough What a world, what a world I must be dreaming Cause the world don't give a fuck About me or what I see Compassion is just make believe And that just don't make since to me I MUST BE DREAMING
