POEMS AND LYRICS:
Baseball, Dice Run My Life, Flying Away, My Friends, Sad Yet True, You Were Lying
(By THAD)
BASEBALL
When I was very young I used to play baseball
I hit a homerun and won the game for them all
But I did not feel good about my stupid self
Cause there's no damned trophies upon my fucking shelf!
And nothing's really changed it's basically the same
Everyone likes to cheer because you won a game
If you do something great you shouldn't take a bow
Because everyone will forget a week from now
So hey, the hell with it
Nobody gives a fucking shit
I hate sports, anyway
I'd rather sit home and watch TV all day
How wrong I was to think that I was some hero
About ten years have passed but I'm still a zero
There's nobody around who wants to be my friend
Because being a loser is an awful sin
I might as well just crawl to die in some dark pit
Never again will I hear someone say "nice hit"
So hey, the hell with it
I'll live in some fucking dark pit
Nobody gives a shit
They won't say, "hey, fucking nice hit"
I hate sports anyway
I'd rather sit home and watch TV all day
DICE RUN MY LIFE
On this quest for the hundred sided
I can't live without a roll
Watch a movie, or go out walking?
Cannot choose just where to go
Roll two and get snake eyes
So that means I'll go outside
When to go…in the day or night?
Roll again, and then decide
Now that I've found which way to go
I'd better take my dice along, you know
My life is determined this way
Whatever the dice have to say
It's just that dice run my life
It's just that dice run my life
It's just that dice run my life
Gotta roll!
3 or less and I'll keep walking
4 through 6 and I'll go home
Pass some people while they're talking
Cannot stop while on my roam
I'll walk for…how many minutes?
Roll again to see how long
Got a six…that's an hour
Can't stop now, it's never wrong
I don't want to walk anymore
But the roll is something I can't ignore
If these dice keep me out all night
I'm sure that it will be all right
It's just that dice run my life
It's just that dice run my life
It's just that dice run my life
Gotta roll!
Twelve sides are better than six
Thirty is harder to find
The more sides, the more decisions
Let the dice make up your mind
Choosing takes too much effort
Roll a die, much easier
A life with no hard choices
Roll to stop living in fear
FLYING AWAY
I wanted to do something that would make me well known
But everything I thought up, turned out wasn't my own
Then one night I had a plan, something that could be drawn
But I fell asleep right then, in the morning it's gone
I just lost it, I was so close
Such bad timing, had it, almost
So frustrating, wish it would stay
But it just keeps flying away
I wanted to have someone that I could get to love
And someone who'd love me too, that's what I would dream of
Finally I met a girl, she made me real happy
But she overdosed one night, and she died in her sleep
I just lost her, I was so close
Such bad timing, had her, almost
So depressing, wish she could stay
But her spirit's flying away
I can't take it, everything sucks
Why must I have all the bad luck?
Need a way out, don't want to stay
Soon I will be flying away
MY FRIENDS
My friends are with me
Never or just rarely
Never or rarely
My friends are not with me
Most of them have changed
Not for better, not for better
My friends have many fans
That's why they break my plans
My friends often leave me
All alone to watch my TV, watching TV
They're always fake
My friends are fake
Just there to use
Just there to use me
They only take
My friends just take
Just there to use
Just there to use me
My friends are with me
Just for my comedy
For my comedy
My friends hang out with me
When they are around
They expect me to be funny
But whenever they see
That I am unhappy
They will back off quickly
To make sure that they avoid negativity
They're always fake
My friends are fake
Just there to use
Just there to use me
Why can't I make?
I need to make
Friends who won't use
Friends who won't use me
My friends actually
Are not my friends, really
No, but actually
They're not real friends, you see
But I'm just too strange
Can't do better, can't do better
My friends never can
Lend a helping hand
My friends just use me
Then they leave when I'm not amusing
My friends just use
My friends just use me
My friends just use
My friends just use me
SAD YET TRUE
Have you ever felt that you were just
Good for nothing, worthless piece of slime?
That everyone else was worth so much
But you weren't even worth half a dime
Look around and see everyone
Laughing away and having fun
But you just get a real hard slap
Cause you're no better than a crap
All of it's sad yet true
Does it happen to you?
If so, what can you do?
When it happens to you
Have you ever wished that you could be
With someone you liked, but did not know
And every time you see them walking
You try hard not to let yourself show
You've never even said "hi" yet
You've always been afraid to let
Them see your stupid ugly face
You are just such a big disgrace
All of it's sad yet true
It's some depressing shit
Also, what can you do?
To stop depressing shit
Have you ever lied there on your bed
Way past midnight and you just can't sleep
And not a thing you try ever works
Not even counting all those damned sheep
When you finally pass right out
A horrible dream makes you shout
And then you wake up really sour
Find out it's only been an hour
All of it's sad yet true
And it happens to me
What the hell can I do?
It all happens to me
All of it's sad yet true
There's nothing I can do
Does it happen to you?
There's nothing you can do
All of it's sad yet true
Everything's sad yet true
It's always sad yet true
Oh, it's so sad yet true
YOU WERE LYING
I told you everything
Secrets embarrassing
What have you to tell me?
Only lies
After my
Honesty
Our friendship can't be found
If you jerk me around
You're staring at the ground
Not my eyes
Speaking lies
You look down
Now I'm finding facts were just fiction
After trusting your words with such conviction
Hanging on your every lie
Memorized
A fake past that you created
Tiny details all fabricated
Everything that I should know
You were lying, though
I fell for your false memories
So convincing
But now I'm wincing
I trusted too easily
You misled me
Next time I will try to see
Only lies
After my
Honesty
