twelve

Jalso

Left in the cold never getting up again,

Pushing me down, down, down,

Over in the cycle of life living the same over and over.

 

(Chores)

 

Fifteen taken,

Fifteen gained.

Thirteen taken,

Thirteen gained.

 

Eighty nine in the pot and still no relief,

Fill the now and see the later.

Guilt is eating the inside from a lie

A lie in which truth cannot resolve

 

Fifteen taken,

Fifteen gained.

Thirteen taken,

Thirteen gained.

 

Nothing makes sense let alone sense.

Nothing can take down the F.I.M.H.!

The F.I.M.H will stand!

With me!

I am the F.I.M.H!

My name will live inside the heart.

 

Push away the fog covering your vision

Come see me in your mind in your dream.

I’m you.

You’re not schizophrenic.

I’m one mind inside you.

We turn to the site of blue in the hope to find a way out.

In turn.

 

Fifteen taken,

Fifteen gained.

Thirteen taken,

Thirteen gained.

 

A never ending truth of a lie,

The guilt is almost done.

You are almost gone.

 

You’re back at twelve.

    Wow.....as usual, it is very serious and rather deep....disturbing. It is like an inescapable acknowledgment of being trapped within oneself....being destroyed. Call me stupid/ignorant, but what do the numerical amounts signify? I'm only vaguely acquainted with the "99 Bottles of Beer On the Wall" song.....is it related to that concept?

    • Jalso

      its about the twelve steps or an addiction or trying to get rid of a problem so pretty much the twelve steps. I’m not familiar to the song 99 bottles of beer on the wall I haven’t had time to do research on the song with school work.

        i get most of my inspration from a band called KoRn i can relate to some of there song.
        i make my own lyrics and music but i started out write music like theres im not sure what im trying to say right now but what ever haha

          Oh, thank you very much for explaining! And you may laugh at me, for I only know a few of the lyrics to the "99 Bottles of Beer on the Wall"...nothing more. I very much appreciate your explanation of what you were saying...thank you very much again! I've never heard of KoRn...maybe I will look them up sometime. You write your own lyrics....and can you compose melodies as well? I can never figure out how musicians manage to compose new melodies, and as I do LOVE to sing, I also love to take existing favourite melodies/songs and put my own, very different lyrics to familiar songs....and that is the best I can do so far for writing songs...hahaha!
