42. Standing Still by =MistressWinter:iconMistressWinter:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Open




Killing lights flashing over my glossy eyes
Pull my arm, take me away
Standing still in the road
You scold and tell me it's not the way to go

Am I your anything? Please tell me it's so
Fading, melting into the background of your life
Truly belonging in a fantasy world
Where my dreams become our reality

Sweet, sweet shuddering is what they offer me
All I wanted to do was please others
Not really hurt myself
But as I try to please, they force pain upon me

Paid to inflict self mutilation
It's not so easy as it seems
Standing still in this road
Was the way of getting my debts paid

Instead of goin' under
I've risen above it all
Thanks to you, I see things in a new light
So when I stand still, pray it's on the sidewalk, sugar

I see what I want to be... I want to be the enemy
The one you hate, but keep close
'Cause you keep your friends close, and your enemies closer
As long as we're close, we can be one
One person, one heart, one love
Just you and I

You're better than all of those people who paid you do that :hug: I'm proud of you. You've come a long way since then.

Yes, yes I have. I've gotten better in the cutting department but worse in a few other areas. Everyone has their flaws. And their good points. That means you too, silly, so don't think there isn't something good about yourself. We live and learn xD Yay! I'm preaching like a priest...priestess... molesting priest and priestess!

I don't care if Monday's blue :cries:

It's Friday I'm in love:heart:

xD molesting priest and priestess! that's a good one! :XD:
I'll learn what's good about myself...eventually...and by that, I mean I probably won't really notice it until someone points it out... >.>

People have to point stuff out for us, don't they? I told you I was dense. Blonde at heart, man, blonde at heart xD

They don't know nothing about redemption.
They don't know nothing about recovery.

Ha, and I even forget what I was listening to when I wrote this ;p Prolly The Black Parade

As long as I am getting better, I am perfectly happy with most of the things I write :D :hug:

I think it's subconscious. The lyrics ring somewhere throughout your psyche and find their way into the writing. Kind of like Davey with "What David calls servant and master".. you know? :nod:

Yay! I'm so proud *beams* :boogie:
