From me: "The Point of writing isn't so others can understand what's going on in your mind. It's so you can understand what's going on inside yourself."

By me: "Who needs you when I have these yellow lines on this road?"


You’re lying there, crying
Crying your silent tears,
You’re lying there, crying,
Hoping no one hears…

You’re kneeling there,
That gun in your hand,
And I scream for you,
I scream for you to stop,
But you won’t understand,

You’re kneeling there,
That gun in your hand,
And I’m begging,
Please, please stop….
I can’t take it anymore…
But you won’t stop…

Please stop!
But you don’t see me,
Don’t hear me,
Or don’t want to…
Why won’t you listen?

You’re sinking, you’re drowning,
And there is nothing I can do…
Nothing but fall to my knees,
Crying those silent tears,
Those silent tears,
That you’ve cried,
So many times…

And I cry out to you,
To anyone,
Hoping they’ll hear,
But they don’t see me,
Don’t hear me,
Or don’t want to…
Why won’t you listen?
Why won’t the world listen?
