Cry for help

I want to give everything

Take all I have, make it sting

Open me up read me like a book

Analyze me, take a thorough look

Cut me deep to make the crimson flood

Stem the bleeding it’s too much

Dont like what you hear, what you see

I’m just so messed up, sorry I am me!

Smear it all over, smile ear to ear

Chuckle devilishly, taunt and cheer

Having second thoughts, too late now

Such a coward, you don’t know how

Cry like a mess, feel sorry for yourself

What’s the matter, you been left on the shelf?

Take deep breaths can’t be long now

Escape from your hell, take a bow

Sorry call for help cause you call for no one

Of course not, otherwise where would be the fun?

In your twisted little mind fragile as it is

You think about yourself trying to do the biz

Think about the others all around you

What the hell are they going do do?

Do they deserve to lose you, really, no one cares?

Think about it beforehand instead of giving scares

Talk to someone, you must share, don’t be alone

For God sakes pick up the god damn phone!

Suicidal rage

Pathetic excuse for a father

Pathetic excuse for a lover

Temper frayed from sleepless nights

Rage envelops with a fright

Snaps in a moment, fist through the door

Argument ensues, emotion so raw

Go on hit me, I deserve it, sorry excuse

Losing it like that, what a recluse

My boy there innocent, said nothing wrong

Aggressive dad, what are you doing, it’s wrong

Take him back to his mums, he falls asleep

I am so sorry, so pathetic, I start to weep

A six year’s olds comments, cuts like a knife

It’s shocking how they look at life

I drive off to work, one thing on my mind

End it, now, escape from this bind

Crash the car, crash it good

Wreck myself break it, if only I could

Selfish of me, to walk out on my family

My kids, my girlfriend what life to be

In the biggest mess I ever could be

I’m certainly the lowest ever I’ve been

Christmas makes you feel really down

Certainly this evening I did nothing but frown

I’ve calmed down now from a suicidal rage

All this because of a depressed snap rampage

Childhood · depression · happy · Life

Solitary confinement

Some of us like to be alone
Time to process on your own

Not wanting to be around others

Feeling trapped, feeling smothered

It started when you was young

You never really did like fun

Bullied at school, always picked on

Just wishing that they would be gone

In college, things should of been different

But most of them were just ignorant

Work passes by, not many friends

Nothing much changes, same old trends

Didnt really like clubbing or drinking a lot

Dancing around badly, looking like a twot

Prefer your own company, just better like that

Prefer your solitary confinement, that’s just a fact

My missus, the wife

I’m in my old caravan, 

And I ain’t got a plan

My wife has just left me

She’s really takin the pee

Cause she’s a selfish bitch

Some people call her a witch

But certainly not me

I’m just happy to be free

She left me for that guy

I can’t even think why

Twenty years my younger

Could of been the plumber

It’s better than staying together

And not knowing whatever

Could of happened to us

No need to make a fuss

She’s outta my life

My missus, the wife.

Life sucks!

.

When you’ve had a bad day

And you wonder which way

To go in your life

Because you’ve argued with the wife

Your kids hate you

It’s their point of view

That nothing is good enough

And that’s the way it is. Tough

Your job sucks like a wormhole

You don’t like your boss, the arsewhole

You can’t find another job

Cause your a lazy slob

Bills just don’t stop coming in 

Overdraft and credit cards sinned

Your car has broken down

Your face is starting to frown

Your phone is almost flat

Forgot to charge, what a twat.

That’s it, decided to quit?

Look at yourself and stop being a dick
