Across The Ocean

Across the ocean i did travel
and want to travel back
to who knows where
and to who knows what
but to someone whos heart is warm
and can restore the flame that died
to open arms and a loving life
i have to believe that this is right
to give up my heart for you
for someone else to cherish for life.

Sunshine Faded

you brought sunshine into my heart
for a few months of my life
the sunshine faded quickly
when you said i don't want you for my wife
i cried into my pillow
the tears they did flow
i wanted to know what i had done
to make you feel this way
the only answer you gave
was its not you its me
i feel there is a weakness
only you know you can fix
and if that day and time comes
and we have not grown apart
maybe then one day you will
fully give me your heart

Despair/Suicide

When you feel so lost and lonely
and the world feels like despair
and there is no one to talk to
your hell is out there
the darkness of that tunnel
goes on for miles and miles
no golden flickers of light
only more and more despair
that feeling just creeps over you
it gains more power and strength
as you reach out for the tablets
taking one with each dark step
before you know it there all gone
how many did you take?
what the hell i dont care! !
theres no one to listen to you anyways
my life has been a misery
for oh so many years
it never seems to get better
just more and more despair
