SO SMART—SO STUPID
Took the bull by the horns and he dragged you around
Matched your arrogance, raised you one and kicked you to the ground
You feel the crowd laughing and you want revenge
You should have dust yourself off and got back up again
Hey, Rock n’ Roll!!!
Rattle your core
Rattle your bones
Feeling like a “loser” won’t leave you alone
Misdirected anger at the ones who really love you
You’ve gotten so far gone, You don’t recognize your face
You’ve gotten so smart—you're stupid
Never a good idea to take your life away
Self respect you learn along your journey of life
WHY
Out of nowhere
You shattered my life
Blank face—No emotion—Didn’t care if I lived or died
And I’m left here with the pieces
As I struggle to survive!
Why?
Why
Why
Why
The truth is told
There are no mysteries
Justice is served
Coping with reality
You gave in too soon
—It’s not as hard as it seems
And now your history is a coward’s
As many heroes come to save the day
God bless the children
God bless the angels
God save the heart that hurts so bad
God save my sanity
God save humanity
Bring us closer to a love
Bring us closer to a peace
Closer to an understand

My abnormalities
Are seen as abominations among humanity
I'm a another stereotype labeled by society
Even though I'm trying my best to just be me
-
I may not walk the same
But I still have my own path
I have my own footsteps to make
And my own happiness to grasp
You see me how you want to
I am who I am
You have your own narrow point of view
But I am just another human
So many words to be said / So much hate to be meant
Lash out towards the difference / Guilt trip my already-clouded conscience
I am not the one who is typical
I choose to look a different way
You need to look in the mirror
And ask what does a dictator always say?
Religion? by Mag889
He put the beer back to the bar counter. It was wooden and a bit sticky but unusually bright. Yeah, he was more interested in percieving the structure of wood than even try to listen to this guys preaching. Yes! He WAS preaching him!
He thought it must had been about 15 minutes by now...
"...God is watching you! Especially you, young man!" Continued the man on ne breath. "He wants to save you... I know you've been through a lot..." He gave Joey a piercing look that was supposed to be empathetic but instead it seemed so annoying, that young man felt like puking in a minute!
So he moved away.
After a second he decided i

The year was 1955, and the house had been old for a very long time. On windy nights houses all the way across the street could hear the dark green shutters clattering against their frames, and on rainy days the curtains were thrown wide open and occasionally figures could be seen moving about. On sunny days, half of the curtains were drawn completely, but o

Uncommonly Beautiful
The stars are coming out tonight. A million, billion sources of light, stretching into infinity. A million, billion suns, each shining down on their own worlds. The moon is full and uncommonly beautiful. It will wax and it will wane, going from a bold, brilliant source of light nearly as powerful as the sun to the barest wink of silver in the sky, and then disappearing. But it will always return.
Tomorrow morning, the sun will rise and paint the sky with color. It will give light and life to the world all day, as it has done for every day past and will do for every day still to come. Even if there are clouds and rain and storming, the sun wi
Don't fit me in your form
For i'm far from the norm
Don't try to contain
All that's in my brain
This normality,
makes us insane

only the mad are sane"
You come to me yet again
with red eyes full of fear
and tear stained sleeves.
You stand at my open door,
waiting for unnecessary permission,
and try to hold them in but one
escapes and you fall.
Your foundation collapses
beneath your feet and I desperately
reach out before Hell claims you.
I don’t know why you always
return to me because you are
blind and cannot see the that
I want to help you.
But I will never send you away.
I let you stay until the tears are
gone and you thank me then
continue down your path.
I watch and cry for you because as
long as your path is dark, you will not
be able to see that you’ve fallen.
But I
