Voices..The voice murmurs sweet insanitiesVoices..
Within the safety of my mind
No one cares it declares I listen obediently and wait for more
They wouldnt miss you it simply states I understand and nod my head
Hurt yourself it says getting louder I dutifully go grab a blade
No BURN! it screams inside my head I stay put, refusing to move
Listen to me, please it coaxes me I give into my weakness
Not heat, ice it lures me in I grab the ice and the salt


What if....What if I told you I gave in? Turned back to the blade Impulse taking over Until I couldnt stop myselfWhat if....
What if I told you I liked it? Couldnt believe I stopped before Wanted to cut deeper and deeper Didnt want to ever stop
What if I only stopped for you? Knew you would be disappointed Or even worse, not care at all You probably wouldnt anyways
What if you found out I didnt stop? Cut until I hit the bone Slit my throat and my wrists All because of you

PrisonerIts a state of constant fear. I dont imagine you foreigners would understand it. I dont imagine youve ever felt real fear in your lives before. A shocking electricity bill or getting fired is nothing compared to having the threat of a bombing or getting caught in a crossfire constantly hung above your head. And the worst part? You cant do anything about it. Thats whats scary. You can always watch your electricity consumption and being bad at your job is your own fault, but we could never run from the impending threat. Nowhere was safe.Prisoner
Of course, a man can get used to anything


i'll let you in on a secret: You suffer.i'll let you in on a secret:
I know you do; you know you do. I've always been here for you. I've seen you cry and I've seen you yell and mostly, I've seen you dream. I am the one pinching your lids closed, I am the one wrenching your lips open, and I am the one squeezing the tears from your drainpipe eyes.
You don't need to tell me, because I know. I have you all figured out. You're sick, you know that, and you're nearly dead, always nearly deadbut you persevere, and you hold out, and you're so beautifu
