A thousand thoughts slip past me.
A thousand more to come.
My life resides inside me
Not willing to come out.

A thousand days go by me.
A thousand more to come.
I’ll wait here, so lonely
For you to figure out

I’m not alright.

If I told you to cry for me
Would you do it?
If I told you to kill for me
Would you do it?
If I told you to love me for me
Would you do it?
Would you do it?
To save this wretched life that’s slipping, slipping from my grasp?


I think I love you.
No, maybe it’s just hate.
My heart is cold and empty
Its brilliant colors washed out.

I can’t feel you there inside my heart
But the effect is somewhat amazing.
Like a parasite
You coax your way in
Then rip yourself right out.

Shattered to pieces.
Fall to the floor.
Sigh and watch the world around you.
Is this what you want?
For me?

I love you.

Bleak computer light.
Dazed, exhausted eyes.
I’ll type until you find out.
My keyboard sings my hurt.

A smile.
A laugh.
Fake feelings caked around me.
Protecting the wounded inside.

If I try and let myself heal
Would you let me?
If I try and tear you out of my life
Would you let me?
If I tried to kiss you
Would you let me?

My God, I think I’m in love with you.

A thousand tears fall from me.
A thousand more to come.
I lie hear all alone
And try to figure my someone out.

A thousand wars rip past me.
A thousand more to come.
I think I’ve lost the biggest one
But that’s okay ‘cause I still won.

A thousand feelings pass me.
A thousand more to come.
As sick as I know it is
Somehow, they’re all of you.

A thousand loves come by me.
A thousand more to come.
Even though I thought I gave in to hate
I think I’ll keep this one.
