Sweet enticement
tastes so great
so luxurious, so grand
but this is all a dream...

life has no grand meaning
no special purpose
if you were to walk through my life
you would stumble more than me...

they say it'll get better
the pain will go away
happiness could be so close
that's what they tell me

lies are what ring in my ears
nobody seems to know what they are saying
making stories bout me
when they don't know me

as you sit there and judge me
can you not look at yourself
can you not see the torment
you put yourself though everyday

if you happen to glance upon
someone who catches your eye
will you love them as though they could die?
Might you treat them like the outsider you are?

predisposed thoughts help me drift
into what is my nether land disguised as a fairytale
with fragrant flowers and purple skies
not a cloud in my beautiful skies...

running, jumping, skipping..
in my playful meadow
only to come upon the forest
whispering my name

curiosity runs ramped
fear springs from my heart
my hesitant feet gather the courage
for i know what is to come...

devastation, unwanted despair
darkness closes in on me, choking me
my meadow is no where to be found
lost... hopeless.... screaming from the pain...

This isn't where i intended to be
never would i have hoped for this torment upon me
where my terror comes to haunt me
making my immortal horror come true

this forest is my netherworld
some place i joke about going to
but never really longing to belong to it's
ignorance which laughs in my face

i neglect my terror for nothing can happen, right?
you see what i go through
you see how hard and painful it can be
i can only hope that i help you learn

life is a gift, so easily taken away
this nether land is no place you want to be
but beware- if you ever do come visit me
don't be unaware that you'll never return the same...
