First Kiss/Am I Dreaming

(Part 2)

existential angst... **I do not condone this sort of thing... but just because we can't see it, doesn't mean it's not there.**

Am I Dreaming

Sometimes I wonder if there's a difference between life and dream

How what I see and what I think I see, can be the same.

What if I couldn't tell anymore?

Would they lock me up?

Hold me down?

Because they think I'm insane??

And as I contemplated all the endless possibilities

I begin to ask myself if I really want to know

If knowing that what I see is all in my head,

Would make all these tormenting voices go...

And as I lay there in bed with a gun in hand

I wondered if these people would understand

That what I did was enevitable. Unstoppable...

For all these voices rendered me incapable

of telling the difference between imaginary and real

For these pains I have, caused me a great ordeal

And as I pulled the trigger,

I wondered if this was the answer...

And said,

"Fuck it. Better this than cancer"... ... .. .. . . .

Hello : ,

I'm just hoping to find a place to share my thoughts and feelings... Even the darker ones...

Maybe even get some feedback/constructive criticism.

It'd also be pretty awesome if I was able to reach a few people.

I'd like that : ,
