Burning emotions

If only I could control my life,

maybe it wouldn't be so hard to survive,

I'd burn my memories into ashes that fall to the sea,

and delete my feelings like a flash drive or on a CD,

I stay to myself afraid to get sick with love,

and shoot the flying dove,

no one would even recognize,

for i have Mechanicalized, 

the screams in my head would drown in the rains,

I'd light the safety flames,

S.O.S Emotions starting up I could use some help, 

I try to scream it always comes out as a yelp, 

Control is something i don't have, 

they say control your emotions even when you want them bad,

ignore the voices in your head,

others say i'm insane since they have tounges of lead,

listen to close have to much and you'll end up dead,

laughing at the pain im crazy as i fill my enemies with dread,

I'm awaiting the day I become numb,

others say that it's just dumb, 

but when i'm free of emotions they'll all see,

because i won't care if they hurt or laugh at me,

emotions something i won't miss,

good bye devine pain i'm heading toward my numbness.
