I'm just a lost voice in an infinite space
Sometimes I give up and the silence returns
And then it comes back seeping out in calloused and unpretty syllables
And sometimes I'm just screaming
But I'm scared to death that someone will hear me.

I didn't forget. I don't want to.

I like to think of the best times of my life in snow globes
Preserved in the perfection that they were
When we loved each other
So even though we don't anymore
we still have the proof that it was real
You weren't a mistake.
I need you to know that.
I need you to know it's okay that we moved on
We were supposed to
and all the hurt and anger and the jealousy and the pain and the darkness
We needed that to.
I think we just got stuck staring at the snowglobes trying to find a way in
Instead of appreciating them for what they are.
You don't talk to me anymore
So I have no way of knowing
But I hope someday when you think about us, you can smile.

Here's your happy ending




Once upon a time there was a little girl
She grew up in her own little fairytale
With ribbons and ponies and fairies at hand
And all of the world was her playland
She could have anything she ever dreamed
With only one restriction to learn:
"Don't go into the woods,
For if you do you will never return"
The little girl did not understand
Why she must stay in her playland
and avoid the evil woods
that intrigued her where the shadows stood
She made up her mind despite consequence
she must explore this labyrinth
She left in the middle of a moonlit night
and noone knew of her secret plight
The sun found it's way back in the morning, but she did not
And that's the last anyone knew of this plot.
And the girl?
Well, shes around.
But, you have to go in, she can't come out
So call it darkness or something else.
But you know what this is really about.
We all go into the woods and never come out.

top 5 album art

That metal show on vh1 classics inspired me to do this. This is my top 5 album art of recent-ish years:

#5 Fall Out Boy- Infinity On High
I don't know there is just something about a sheep with wings.....












#4 Chiodos- Bone Palace Ballet
I had a picture of this taped to my mirror in highschool. This is the album that got me into Chiodos













#3 Brand New- Deja Entendu
This is just epic artwork and an epic album













#2 The Used- Lies for the Liars
It was hard for me to choose just one cover of the used albums. Honestly they are all amazing












#1 Underoath- They're Only Chasing Safety
This image will be burned in my mind forever.
