[bodytext] => Go up the stairs I can drop my head Watch it crash each step And my body falls after it, dead Wish that I could change things Walking faster without you Falling more than ever Finding more things to do Words that never win And I wake the ones I love Losing my breath Push comes to shove My batteries running dry These empty words I speak Too sad to smile And the happiness I always seem to seek No one has to be so far away Not at times like these Wish I could be held again And get up off my knees Cut me deep You break the skin Losing sense of reality With a simple taste of gin Swallow my illusions I'll travel with my doubt Kick me even further But don't help me find a way out So long without being young Growing up so fast Losing so much after me And forgetting my past Lurking feelings everywhere Lying in wait You bring out the best in me And you say the things I love to hate This is what I must do Be myself and wonder of tomorrow Escape losing everything Time that I must try and borrow My batteries are running dry again Come and find me to run Losing all my passion for desire And escaping the ever-rising sun Bless myself and I'll bless my sadness Sit alone and wait in the dark Burn your name in my memory Erase the stupid mark Recharge me faithfully Find me a new way home Get me out of this place Forget I always roam Rip the cord off the wall Take the phone and throw it away Take away the pain you gave me I'll take away my batteries and forget what you might say [comments] => 1 [counter] => 192 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Exodus-On-Life [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
