One you run into someone famous that you look up to, you...

The song without a ringing melody,
Creating sounds within the night of day,
Because of this I step outside of me,
The music that compels the words I say.
My mind draws blank as I can't think of life,
Though I can't find a meaning to convey,
Then sharpen thee to split in two with knife,
These papers strewn with stories of dismay.
To syncopate the words I can't explain,
My memories of life I do not see,
Through thick and thin my practice may cause pain,
My blistered fingers learn the notes off key.
If music can't be seen with human eyes,
The tears I hear are all just full of lies.


Alright, I wrote this sonnet for my English class and a lot of people I know that aren't in my class we're interested in reading it so if anyone is willing to tell me, I'd like to hear what you all think of this. Thanks!

I Don't Have To Be Afraid of This Sinking Ship?(That's Good to Know)

If life were as simple as saying "yes" or "no"
I think we would have died a long time ago.

The fact is, life can be as simple as that.
Do you want to live?
Yes or no?

Seeing that as I write it
Shows me how simple
Unimportant
Or stupid
Life can be to someone who has everything
Thinking they have nothing.

I've never physically experience something so simple,
Mentally I have.

We can dream
We can hope
We can believe
We can live
But we're all going to die sooner or later

Some of us are dying
On the inside

Keep your attention
On the world
All it's imperfections
All it's hate
All it's lies

See just how much life can mean to someone
Especially to someone who as nothing.

As far as I'm concered
There should be no reason
To continue
Though many people have proven me wrong
Time and time again

It's those people
Showing me what life actually can mean for me
They are the ones who survive the longest.

...everyone has their own catastrophy. Mine involves an ass load of chemicals and a box full of toys.
--yup that's right, I'm organizationally challenged. I don't clean very often!

What's your catastrophy?

A little birdie told me that Panic! At the Disco's new video for Build God, Then We'll Talk would be out today in Australia and I was wondering if anyone had a link to it so I could watch it!

If you do,Thanks!

One day you wake up in a bed that isn't yours. That same day, you realize you haven o idea who you are. You look in the mirror every second and you can't believe what your looking at. The one thing you had, that no one in the entire fucking world could change, is gone. The only place you have left to hide is in your head. Then, someone decided you were going insane and took you to the "happy home". Everything here was blinding and you couldn't see at all. You were passing out, that you knew. You figured you fell over because you felt yourself being caught just before your head cracked against the linoleun floor. You looked up to see a blurred mage of your savior. Unfortunately, you couldn't see clear or think straight so you just stared trying to figure out who it was that caught you. You heard muffled speaking and then you were being lifted up onto a gurney and everything else after that was a blur of flying colors.

"This was no accident,
It was a theripudic chain of events."

All of humanity never looked so glum
Sad, alone, confused
You say, "I don't need your help,
Nor do I want it."
Like hell you don't!

Push us away,
We notice
Tell us something that scares us
Scares us shit-less
We notice that too

So I guess we're back
I'm crying my eyes out now
Ever wondered
What leaving would do
To anyone else besides you?
Yeah?

A whole hell of a lot
At this rate anyways
Stop!
Please, just stop!

It might sound selfish
It might sound stupid
Maybe even pointless,
But it's for your own good

All I ask is for comfort
Then I can't be there to help
When you need it more then I

Push us away,
We notice.
Tell us something that scares us,
Scares us shit-less,
We notice that too.

So I guess we're back
I'm crying my eyes out, again.
Ever wondered what one little "scratch" could do
To anyone other than you?

I'm close to joining
Oh so close it hurts to think
Join the self-destruction crew?
Body set on self-destruct
No control, nothing
Never knew
Just what to do
The invite,
I think I'll pass


Why?
Answer me this
I promise
It gets better
Less cloudy
Less rain
Never any lightning cracks

The pain gets easier
The grass is always greener
Just don't jump
Don't jump
Not to conclusions
Don't jump
Not 'til you have a reason

Did you think you could hide it?
"I'm not sure."
Did you think it wouldn't show?
"I don't know."

I know you better than you think I do
Every tiny thing you mention
It sticks in my head
Your word are like glue
Mine,
Are just sugar coated lies and nothing more.

Let yourself become less distant
Join the crowd
Just this once
Please!
I hate to beg,
But, Please??

Some one has come and ripped my insides out
Torn them to shreds
And fed them to the dogs.
Now all that's left
Is my skin
And teeny, tiny pieces of my shattered heart
Once again
Been ripped to shreds
Never knew
Until I saw you
Only fright
Put up a fight
Jaw dropped slack
Not sure how to react
I've heard of shock
But all you did was mock
Now I see you
Not all you were meant to
Can't wait for freedom
Never knew I'd be so wrong
Rip out your heart
Once again
It's torn to shreds
This time though
It's me who sees your pain
Not like you inside your game
Stay away
Never look back
Always know
Never fight back.

Have you ever felt like you were on top of the world?
Maybe the exact opposite?
Either way
Here you are
Right in the middle of it all
You'll die when they want you to
And so will everyone else
If I wrote a story on how to give up life
I'd only show you because you can't tell wrong from right
Not only that
But you never seem to know which way is up
I don't know why I was my time following you
You're definitely not a leader
Don't just assume I'm always following
I'm not a follower
Unlike some people I know
I set my own goals
Walk my own path
And never once look back
Why?
You sure as hell don't know
Neither do I
So you know what?
DON'T ASK!
