To The Liquid Cemetery

~I rather not be~These feelings swell inside~ And eat me alive~Decomposing~My will to live~ This heart is heavy~This soul is tired~ My days are gone about~With painted lips~ And plastic smiles~I am not really happy~ Just faking it for a while~ I feel alone~Deep down in my bones~ In a room full of people~A warm embrace~ But I am chilled~By my despair~ Everyday~ My grave seems~ So far away~ The only reason~I am here at all~ Is because you all~Want me to stay~ Alive~For what?~At the end of the day~When you lay~Your weary heads~After stealing~What it is~You want from me~ My eternal sleep~Your dreams~Are soft and safe~ While I am still awake~Casting shadows on the bricks~ I walk down the cobblestone streets~Towards the ocean~ Lamenting to the moonlit sky~Tender is the pain~Of my heart beating~Pumping poison~Through my icy veins~ This aching agony~That steals my sleep~Chokes my tears~ And suffocates my relief~Torturous tragedy~ That explains away~My insanity~Overwhelming madness~ My mind can not escape~Saddest of emotions~Are thrown~ Into the ocean~It is there~They lay~At rest~ My Liquid Cemetery~Where the markers~Of the dead~ Are just reflections~Of a starry night 08
