MY GIFT OF PAIN TO THE WORLD When I look into the ocean There is nothing else I need But to look away When I stare at the sun My eyes bleed as I scream in pain And I can't look away Staring at the ceiling No holes appear for me But when my time shall come I will run into the open state of mind My ears lost track of where I was My life took hold of something else And it bled me dry Took me high Floated on the leaves, and the breeze Drifted into the cold night air Fell around outside, no care Dropping to my knees The dead wind beats at me Trying to find a way to finish me To beg to me, and steal from me When she makes the holes in me I don't feel anything I know it's just another way For my soul to get away from me Does nobody care? Nobody stares I'm a freak but no one is aware They can't see me, or what I must be I don't even have familiarity In me 9/11/98
