Genetic Glow I
Leave Me
The teardrop

GentleGentle hands peel back my face I know you saw my fall from grace I lost my my mind and found my head Filled with anger, filled with dreadGentle
Gentle eyes seek my heart It's not an end, but it's a start I draw back and hide my face I do not want to leave this place
A gentle voice asks me why I lost the sun and shunned the sky I did not know what to say I simply didn't remember day
Gentle heart tries to find my own It never beats, it has never grown I trembled at her care I never knew what was there
Gentle hands and gentle eye


I Tried...I tried to stop the madness, Kill the pain, and the hate I tried to beat the sickness, Tried to challenge my fate I tried to forget, Tried to be myself I tried to be normal, Like everyone else I tried to be strong, And wished for a happy endingI Tried...
I tried to belong, Tried to live my life pretending I tried to stop the voices Inside of my head I tried to force myself Into the places I dred I tried to listen To the things you said But when I looked inside myself, All I could find was already dead...

One ThousandI know you thought that I was dead A thousand memories in your head I lost my heart along the way I left it here, so here I'll stayOne Thousand
I gave my mind up long ago To give my tapeworm room to grow I lost the path and found my way You stole my heart and ran away
I lost my key to your front door Laid my coat upon the floor Got my gun and fired twice Anger is my only vice
I burned your picture on the porch I'm sick of carrying your torch I healed my wounds and wrapped my scars I left your memory in the stars


I WantI want to say What is not true That I love myself And so do you I want to hear My name on your lips On long summer trips With my hand on your hip I want to see You smile at me At the edge of the sea With your hand in mine I want feel That you feel the same So we can stop the games And be true But most of all I want youI Want
