THE UNTITLED SERIES

Death's at the door knocking
"Let me in, let me in."
I don't want to
I want to stay
Right here
Where I belong.
"I'm sorry," Death says,
"But your time is up."
I can't go
What about my family?
"You've lived your life and
they have theirs to live.
There's nothing more here for you to do,
it's time for you to go."
My family says goodbye
and I walk away
Into the night.
"I'm sorry," Death says,
"But your time was up and
you had to go."

I'm flying
I can imagine I'm flying.
The alcohol is buzzing through my brain
The sky flies by
I turn once
I turn twice
and the sky flies by.
Here I sit behind the wheel
as the outside rushes past.
I speed up
I slow down
and the sky flies by as I go fast.
I don't feel a thing
I'm as high as a kite
I turn once
I turn twice
I crash and burn as the sky flies by.
One flip, two flip
This whole thing is a fucking trip.
The alcohol is no longer buzzing through my brain
and I am flying again.

How many times can I tell you that I love you?
How many times before it gets old?
But will it get old if our love is pure?
How many times will take for me to say
I love you before you say it back?
You will say it back won't you?
My love cannot be a one way street.
How many times can I tell you I love you...
Before it's too late?

Creeping quietly through the woods
Darkness surrounds me on all sides
I hurry along as shadows move in around me.
Up ahead I spot a clearing
Moving swiftly, I make my way towards it.
Suddenly from the side I see movement
Or was it the shadows of the trees?
Then, laughter from behind me
I turn around, but there's nothing there
Is it just the wind playing tricks or something else?
I walk closer to the clearing, dismissing the noise
When I hear laughter again, a childs laugh
I turn around in a circle, but nothings there.
I walk some more, when I feel a tap on my shoulder
Turning quickly, but I only come up with empty air
Now I'm scared and breathing fast.
I break into a run, not caring where I go
As I disappear deeper into the woods I hear noises.
It's footsteps and they are approaching fast
Turn corners, skim tree roots until the footsteps are no more.
I stop to catch my breath when I notice the eerie silence.
Death closes in as all goes dark and I am no more.

Can you feel the fire, as it envelopes all around
Can you see the fire, as it swings towards you?
The fire burns, swallowing everything insight
Watch it as it blackens the earth, the sky
Feel its heat warm your body and soul.
Stand outside the fire as it destroys
Stand inside the fire as it creates.
Your heart is just like the fire
Watch them both go out.
When the fire is gone the earth is left alone and helpless.

I choke on the grinds leftover from my last meal
I stab at the remains of my emaciated body
I scream out loud, but no one notices me.
I could die right now, would anyone care?
I'm whittled down so there's nothing left of me to see
I'm staring right at you and you just ignore me
I'm stalking you every night, but you don't know.
I could die right now, would anyone care?
My brain is filled with all your insults
My body bruises from your hard hands
My heart is split in two all because of you.
I could die right now, would anyone care?

I wish I was a fool
A fool for love
Romantic inhibitions abound
Cupid would be aiming for me.
Flowers, hearts, gifts, kisses
Those would be a part of my daily routine.
I wish I was a fool
A fool who was in love
My love would have no boundaries.

I bump, I break, I trip, I fall
It's too dark for me to see it all
I'm blind to everything around me
My eyes are shut to the world, so I can't see.
I can feel the sun shining down
I can hear the birds and I love the sound
But I can't see a thing
And it's making me want to scream.
I remember the light from before
Too bad I can't see it anymore.
