I feel so (Torn) inside,
Especially, (When I see U.)

Vile bodies of broken camaraderie
In cold blood I buried my past in the mud
vile bodies trapped thinking about their last dying wish
Bodies of soldiers who are going to be dearly missed
Beloved vile bodies that started to peel,...

I went to a place in my dream
I'm sure that I was dead
A place filled with dewdrops of lavender from a bed of rosehips
A broken stone wall I climbed upon, the sun shining so gently through the vines
To barely touch my cheek but ...

It barely hurts, I promise
She brushes my hair from my face
Just a quick pinch, then it’s over
A pinch how hard?
Do you want me to show you?

Why are...

Until the last time someone thinks of you
As I lie awake at night
And a single tear rolls down my cheek
I smile to think that you’ll be alive

Lemonade & blood stained floors
Sour reunion
Girl full of honey

Gone, lifted away
A life gone astray

Some days it hurts my heart
Sometimes I want to become road art

To go on fighting or give it a rest
Around the corner is just anothe...
