Hopelessly Hopeful• Show poetry

No one will ever get me. I can except that. I just hate when they try to change me. They can't see that I am tired of changing. I wasn't always what I am today. I used to be happy. I used to value myself. But I changed over the years. So I don't want to change anymore.

Never reflect on your life, it will just depress you

The Hush Sound

Don't Wake Me Up

You came to me
In seamless sleep
Slipped right in
Behind my eye
On the back of my mind
We swam a sea
Of pretty sights and chandelier skies
I swore I could feel you breathe
It was all so real to me

The light had slipped through the window
The morning ripped you away oh

Don't wake me up
I am still dreaming
The story's undone
Unravel at the seams
Don't wake me up
Death is misleading
And when I fall sleep
Sleep with your ghost

I looked in the dark
The room calm and cold
And quiet hollow
I am such a haunted soul
Your ghost has gone to bed
Its all cold

The light had slipped through the window
The morning ripped you away oh

Don't wake me up
I am still dreaming
The story's undone
Unravel at the seams
Don't wake me up
Death is misleading
And when I fall sleep
Sleep with a ghost

Oh you were a fire caught in a storm
Memories like embers keep us warm
You will leave me in the morning me

The light had slipped through the window
The morning ripped you away oh [X3]

Magnolia
Your heartbeat is pulsing at night in your chest
It's gold and it's glowing with all the life you have left
I received your words from hospitals where you felt alone
Your words like smoke, they made me sick but they kept me warm

Run where you'll be safe
Through the garden gates
To the shelter of magnolias

Your eyes are like sea glass, so weathered and worn
From all they've seen of adolescence torn
The lovers who have tainted you, they pulled you into the night
They touched your skin with velvet gloves and made you feel alive

Run where you'll be safe
Through the garden gates
To the shelter of magnolias
There's not much time
The blush in the sky begins to fade

You are weathered and worn
Your petals soft and torn
The fading color
You have bent your shoulders
To hold the weight of the world
You will surely shatter

Run where you'll be safe
Through the garden gates
To the shelter of magnolias
There's not much time
The blush in the sky begins to fade

Chiodos

"Expired In Goreville"

it's dropping to the terrain at my feet
palm trees are my only company
on this beach
star crossed lovers obsess
alluring dreams of touching starry skies
i'll love you until my last breath
each speck of sand fills in each footstep along the shore
as every tide rolls in; every one takes its toll
the salt in this water is nauseating
keeping me trapped and running in circles
on this beach star crossed lovers obsess
alluring dreams of touching starry skies
a quick glance over my shoulder reveals a number only seen in the movies
chardes of glass, and a decayed piece of parchment half buried that reads:
'you cured me of my foolish obsession with love'
i'll love you until my last breath takes you from me


"The Words "Best Friend" Become Redefined"

I've been hiding in this bed for weeks from this
Throats raw from screaming and I haven't said a word
The sky is calling, and the stars, they point to this

To a chair we see your breath in the air (breath in the air)
but only for a little while
Your cold pale skin and tainted purple lips
Let me embrace you with this kiss
And together we'll float like angels
Together... together we will float like angels

Higher than the heavens the clouds part ways
"Promise me to never look down!", and we'll stay like this forever

If your stomach feels weak, then my work here is done
To hide from our twisted ways,
I've been hiding in this bed
Been hiding in this bed for weeks

Reggie And The Full Effect

What The Hell Is A Stipulation?

She said she doesn't want a boyfriend, she's better off with friends
She doesn't like getting hurt when serious relations end
He only wants to see her whenever she will permit
He only wants to be with her and quit feeling like shit
All that he can give, he gives her
more then he really should now
whenever they meet he'll see her
and he'll tell her that he's happy
She feels good
This simple situation is easier unsaid
He knows just by him asking her it goes straight up to her head
All that he can give, he gives her
More then he really should now
Whenever they meet he'll see her
And he'll tell her that he's happy
If she could give the time she see that everything's fine
Its not up to me
She wishes that he would see its nothing to be that she will for he
She says she'll never need a boyfriend, she's happy with
her friends
She's keeping all her secrets with her up until the end
All that he can give, he gives her
More then he really should now
Whenever they meet he'll see her
And he'll tell her that he's happy
She feels good
She...she...feels...good
She feels good

Get Well Soon

You got a lot to learn before I let you go
There's things you need to see and things you need to know
They say we won't make it
What do they know?
They say we can't do it
But I got to know
[Chorus:]
Is it getting better?
Is it getting worse?
Was it ever worth it?
was it just a curse?
Is it getting better now? [x2]
You've got a lot to do before I let you stay
There's things you need to see and things you need to say
They say we won't make it
What do they know?
They say we can't do it
But I got to know
[Chorus]
you always talk too much, too little, too late,
too much, too little, too late
for me to figure out [x2]
I still can't figure out
[Chorus]

Broken Hearts, Torn Up Letters And The Story Of a Lonely Girl:

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better...

Her hands are in her pockets
And she's scared to look
The picture's frozen
And she's closed the book
Jealousy has only got one friend
And Joey's heart was never meant to mend
Walking faster now she holds him close
The timing matters just to take the dose
Empty pockets tell the stories..

And there's no destiny when everyone's your enemy
Take your jealous heart and cast it into stone
You'll regret it all
Living behind your wall
And you'll never fall in love
If you don't fall in love

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better...

The nights are getting darker
And the wind is cold
The summer sun
Has now become so old
Her closest friends
Were never meant to fade
With all these dreams
That didn't make the grade
Close the doors but never look inside
Time will tell if all your love has died
Empty pockets tell the stories...


And there's no destiny when everyone's your enemy
Take your jealous heart and cast it into stone
You'll regret it all
Living behind your wall
And you'll never fall in love
If you don't risk it all

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better
Times like these won't last forever...

Close the doors but never look inside
Time will tell if all your love has died
Empty pockets tell the stories...

And there's no destiny when everyone's your enemy
Take your jealous heart and cast it into stone
You'll regret it all
Living behind your wall
And you'll never fall in love
If you don't fall in love

You'll regret it all
(Broken hearts and torn up letters)
Living behind your wall
(Girl you just can't dance forever)
And you'll never fall in love if you don't risk it all
(If you want to make it better...)

Broken hearts and torn up letters
Girl you just can't dance forever
If you want to make it better
Times like these won't last forever...

MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE

"The End"

Now come one come all to this tragic affair
Wipe off that makeup, what's in is despair
So throw on the black dress, mix in with the lot
You might wake up and notice you're someone you're not

If you look in the mirror and don't like what you see
You can find out firsthand what it's like to be me
So gather 'round piggies and kiss this goodbye
I'd encourage your smiles I'll expect you won't cry

Another contusion, my funeral jag
Here's my resignation, I'll serve it in drag
You've got front row seats to the penitence ball
When I grow up I want to be nothing at all!

I said yeah, yeah!
I said yeah, yeah!

C'mon C'mon C'mon I said
(Save me!) Get me the hell out of here
(Save me!) Too young to die and my dear
(You can't!) If you can hear me just walk away and
(Take me!)

I Don't Love You"

Well, when you go
Don't ever think I'll make you try to stay
And maybe when you get back
I'll be off to find another way

And after all this time that you still owe
You're still the good-for-nothing I don't know
So take your gloves and get out
Better get out
While you can

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

Sometimes I cry so hard from pleading
So sick and tired of all the needless beating
But baby when they knock you
Down and out
It's where you oughta stay

And after all the blood that you still owe
Another dollar's just another blow
So fix your eyes and get up
Better get up
While you can
Whoa, whooa

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

Well come on, come on

When you go
Would you have the guts to say
"I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday"

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday

The Classic Crime
"Who Needs Air"

I long to taste adventure like the nature of the sea,
Always moving, always hiding all the creatures from beneath.
Singing silent songs of sadness my heart waits for its chance,
To dance upon the ashes of my burned up little plans.

And I stand alone before the night.
My nakedness is so clear in the glow of the moonlight.
Life is old but so short.
We are young, we want more.

I'm drowning, but I don't care,
'Cause when you got what I got, what I got
Who needs air?
I don't need air.

My addiction to danger like the rush of the sea,
Like a wave on the rocks the lessons crash down on me.
I don't need to prove the world to you only to myself.
So step back and look away as I dive into the swell.

I'm drowning, but I don't care,
'Cause when you got what I got, what I got
Who needs air?

So take me down to the river like a little child,
And take my hand and tell me it's okay to be wild.
I never knew the world until I saw through your eyes,
I never knew myself until I ripped off my disguise
(I ripped off my disguise).

I'm drowning, but I don't care,
'Cause when you got what I got, what I got
Who needs air?

I'm drowning, but I don't care,
'Cause when you got what I got, what I got
Who needs air?
(I have come to the realization that life is more than what I have accomplished.
And life is more then the realization that we have accomplished nothing at all.)

I'm drowning, but I don't care,
'Cause when you got what I got, what I got
I don't need air
(True success is so selfless so drown in the lyrics
of your life and give up the air that you breathe.
You don't need anything. You don't need anything.)

I don't need air

"The Coldest Heart"

A couple of years and I'm a silhouette
My halo is broken now and I'm all that's left
I hate to disappoint but it's the way things went
I was blind to the things I did
And deaf to what was said
Tie up these loose ends
These voices are calling me out
I've got the solution
You can feed me to something
That is leaving this town

[Chorus:]
Whoa, I'm losing hope
There's a hole in my heart
That's been cut out of stone
Whoa, cold comes cold goes
Could you fill this hole?
Cause I can't do it alone

A couple of tears and I'm a broken mess
The sadness has taken me far too deep in regret
So sing me a song about something good
My heart's on the thrashing floor
And I've done every single thing I could
I use to believe in
Some kind of feeling
That could change everything I thought I knew
But that door is closed and
My heart feels like it's frozen
If you hear me I can feel you
[Chorus]

[Bridge 4x]
The coldest heart can be brought to life
When it's thrown into the fire of goodbyes

[Chorus 2x]

I've got the coldest heart [4x]
(Cause I can't do it alone)

The Velvet Underground

Venus In Furs
Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
Downy sins of streetlight fancies
Chase the costumes she shall wear
Ermine furs adorn the imperious
Severin, Severin awaits you there
I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears
Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
Shiny leather in the dark
Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
Severin, Severin, speak so slightly
Severin, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now plead for me
I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears
Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Severin, your servant comes in bells, please don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Femme Fatale
Here she comes, you better watch your step
She's going to break your heart in two, it's true It's not hard to realize
Just look into her false colored eyes
She builds you up to just put you down, what a clown
'Cause everybody knows (She's a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (She's a femme fatale)
She's just a little tease (She's a femme fatale)
See the way she walks
Hear the way she talks
You're put down in her book
You're number 37, have a look
She's going to smile to make you frown, what a clown
Little boy, she's from the street
Before you start, you're already beat
She's gonna play you for a fool, yes it's true
'Cause everybody knows (She's a femme fatale)
The things she does to please (She's a femme fatale)
She's just a little tease (She's a femme fatale)
See the way she walks Hear the way she talks
