[Someday] I'll [Leave Out All The Rest]

[All Around Me] are the [Dead]
So [Blue], their [Skin]
I have [One Thousand Apologies]
But not enough, for all of you

So, my [Passive] little self
Just had to [Lie]
I had [Drilled A Wire Through My Cheek]
Because I just [Can't Take It]

So, everyone, please
I ask of you,
[Hate Me] for making you [Lose Yourself]
I only wanted you to [Join Me In Death]

Yes, Right now, I'm [Fully Alive]
And [Someday] I'll [Leave Out All The Rest]
But [Only God Knows Why] it's [Never Too Late]

I should [Sober] up
Find [Somewhere I Belong]
And go [Into the Night]
And I guess I will

[Ready, Set, Go!]

And sadly, but necessary

I am dead.

I'm there.

In Hell.

Such [A Beautiful Lie]...

    The structure and the tone reminded me of "The Beautiful Letdown," the part about the church of fools. Very calm, but shatteringly powerful. The line, "And I guess I will," for some reason, was what I identified with. It made the poem personal for me.
    Like a deep breath. Beautiful

    Nicely done. I like how you've gotten all those titles in this (around 22 I think) and still have it read well, make sense and hold the interest. I also like the underlying darkness - gives it a unique take.

    For me, I like how you have set your song titles in brackets - made it easier to pick them out. For others, they might find that annoying...lol..

    Thank you 'Darkwave Das Ich' for this entry. I enjoyed it.
