Growing fast just like the petal’s leaves  Last fall I swear I was young  And now it’s the end of spring.  My feet run before I think, “walk”  Just last fall when I swore I was young  I was doubled over drawing pictures with chalk.   
And when the leaves go from reds to brown  And your friends you swore looked younger  Are older and don’t have the time around.  The only freedom it seems these days is in the car  Driving faster, it doesn’t matter where you are.   
Most people these days are driving to their jobs  While I sit at home and still ha
What do I have to write  What do I have to sing  What is there for me to accomplish  For you to get well   
What do I say  What do I feel  What do I do  For you to get well   
How do I continue  How do I stand with confidence  How do I look you in the eyes  Waiting for you to get well   
How do I care for your needs  How do I listen to you day and night  How do I stay well , while waiting for you to get well
Sky blackened hastened dead.  Collect the bodies from your head.   
Schizophrenic lies inside.  Like a worm to desperate hide.   
I see you and you see me.  Together in dischord harmony.   
Close your eyes and open your mouth.  And let the worl know what you're about.   
Sky blackened hastened dead.  Collect the bodies from your head.
It feels like-  spinning, falling, drifting away  from life on earth  losing my mind as well as air,  it's getting harder to breathe.  floating around like a speck  on a dandelion puff  gasping for breath  wincing in pain,  as the anger blows out of me,  just a puff of steam.  jealosy settles in as well as nevousness  cause i know we could've had a chance  if you hadn't chosen her  so this is what it feels like?  -when i lose my feelings.
Life aint so sunny unless you abuse it  Fight and squirm, but your not gonna fit  Always one step too far behind  Two paces and one fall to the floor  Get up and grasp what you are  and what you always will be   
Just wanna crack the mold  Show them the new teachings  and cast off the ways of old  But the book hasnt been written  before you get your chance  they are already writing you off   
Numbered and labeled like a product  The gross domestication of society  Who solve their problems behind a bottle  Claiming one day they will face sobriety  Yet the
Dark and stormy  With thunderous clouds  The Lung-Shan temple  Is all around  People sit  
And people stand  People walking  And some are rocking  The beautiful design  And wonderful inside  The ruler that lives  His name is Sid
Even though I don’t always show it  And even though I don’t always say it  I really appreciate everything you do  You care about me  
And watch out for me  Even if I don’t always agree  I love you lots  
And care about you too  I always hate it when I see you blue  You’re the best mother I know  
And I’m glad your mine  So happy birthday, I LOVE YOU
Millions of words  Flowing through time  To save us from drowning  
In our deep ocean of sorrow  So damp and so blue  
So hollow and cold  
The vast darkness inside  
Could swallow us whole  As the sea starts to turn  
From ocean blue to smoke grey  The bitter sweet tears  Starts to flow to the graves  Again the ocean will turn  
From smoke grey to blood red  
As some of us drown  
The graves are then beds  The waters turn calm  The skies turn clear  As our bodies spiral down  
On the soft ocean ground  We who are still hanging on  
Will w
This pain  This anger  Why won’t it go away  The tears keep coming  Keep streaming down my face  I feel so sad, so lost  So empty inside  Make it go away  Just make it not stay  Further and further I slip away  I just with it’d go away  The sadder I get  The further I slip  The tighter I grip  The longer the trip
My heart grows heavy with each passing day  
We are starting to grow apart in everyway  I miss you dearly, for all that it’s worth  And it will stay that way till the end of the earth  I love you for everything that you have to offer  In everyway a friend could long for  As far as best friends go there are no other like you  When I’m sad or when I’m mad, you are always there being true  I miss the times we hung out together  I miss the ways we talked about whatever  I miss the fun and joy that we had  And even all the times we were mad  I with we could go back to the w
And as I sat under the stars  The craft flew silently thru' the night  Evading battles of the wars  And traveling with the aid of starlight.  She took a dive and steadied off  Flying parallel to the sea  And the capn' proclaimed as they cleared aloft,  "Fore we succumb, your foes shall flee."   
And later that night another ship glared  An ecliptical shadow in the sky  And laughed along at the poorly-fared  Avenger that could barely fly.  Fuel and food were offered then  But under cover of riddled shield  The newcomer offered again  But our ship would not yet yiel
