Somewhere between sure, and I don't know, maybe...

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

I've been here before, then again I'm guessing...

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Oh, you capture my attention!

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Maybe it’s bricks and mortar now, whether or not they run it down
I don’t want anything to shake that shape away
No one told us which way to come, nobody mapped oblivion
So I go growing roses in the disarray
Just like most, falling head in
‘Til my ghost fills the bed in

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

I don’t need fate to give it time, it doesn’t take pain to change your mind
No weapon can sever the soul from me
Not the sorceress, not the money
All my cleverness, all my cunning

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

In the chaos there is a standard.

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

I'm carrying it like a banner.

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

It’s not a solid, not a soft thing, to pull the wool up like a smoke screen
Nobody does it like a prophet, it’s gone before you know you lost it
There are reasons you keep your hands tied, there’s certain things you shouldn’t have tried
So if you gotta tell me something, you better go from the beginning
We all forget to sleep, and crash at someone’s feet
Everybody skips a beat
We let the chances pass, the few we held so fast
Everybody breaks a glass
And here I’m standing in the middle, not just a little but a hill full
Wondering how I got a head cold, wishing I didn’t know what I know
It’s never been about the money, we’re worthy or we are not worthy
However much you got on your plate, you’re as good as you reciprocate
We all pretend to keep our tongue out of our cheek
Everyone’s the fool they seek
We all go off the track, and feel for our way back
Everybody breaks a glass

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Shook
Scared to look
At peers when they peer back
It’s weird how we fear that
It’s weird how we wear masks
It appears that we fear our own tears
More than tear gas
My team’s struggling in years past
Looking to draft beers
To bring cheers back
But when the drinking game’s finished
No Guinness- just a clear glass
Seeing our real image mirrored back
The places that we go to cope
It’s so strange
When we’re older folks
It don’t change
Trying to hang, we don’t know the ropes
When we fall, we got more than our shoulders broke
It’s no game
It’s why we overdose on cocaine
Get our brains comatose, there’s no blame
If you’ve ever known shame
Known pain
Known days when it really don’t feel ok

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Somewhere perfection lies, but not for you and I
Everybody trips some time
When cities fall like shacks, walls eventually crack
Everybody breaks a glass

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

I'm a little bit on the edge.

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Turned up in this old place again
Can't seem to get away
Take me back to my element
I'm afraid

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Don't let me tumble away
Into the throws of the shadowy bay
I cling to the rock, and it's crumbling off
Toss me a heavy rope, it's a slippery slope

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Come bail me out of this God forsaken precipice
Come bail me out of this God forsaken precipice

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Timing is everything.

 

[Disney-Obsessed]

Oh my gosh.... My mom's cat just threw up on my laptop........... I'm officially grossed out!!!!

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

My LIGHTS box won't stay shut. Only a few other people have this problem :(

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

Ew D:

 

[Monorail Fan:)]

bored

 

[Raven_the_Bird]

And when it's all a blur, you are the hard line
In the disorder, you are the peace sign
And when the riots stir, you are the sound mind
And in the disorder, you are the peace sign

I can't tell if they're laughing at me or with me
All these hints and subtleties they got me on my knees
Begging for serenity
