you just might want to get to know me





This is the only thing were fighting for
We're gonna make it through the night

The only way to remain strong

Miasmatic Sanctuary

Miasmatic Sanctuary

a little boy walks the rows of a cemetary,
taking advantage of his last moments with the ones whom he has lost,
seeking escape, he flees the sea of black umbrellas,
only stopping when his body screams for relief.
gasping for breath, cooled by the rain the endlessly pours,
down from the grey skies.
he walks, one foot in front of the other. he keeps going and going.
it's one headstone after another; its like they never end.
the air is so cold outside.
he can do nothing to silence the deafening sound of his teeth chattering as he shivers.
the boy cant take it any longer.
he falls, seemingly in slow motion, scraping his knee.
he screams at the top of his lungs, his empty lungs, but nobody can hear him.
like he's not even there. maybe he isnt...
then all the sudden the pain in his legs fade away.
like it never consumed the boy in the first place.
even though the evidence is clear, looking down at his wound, he cannot feel it.
but along with the pain goes all feeling with it.
he looks up to see a crowd of unknown people.
they seem to be like any other person, except he cannot see them,
but he can feel them.
he hears them whisper, they speak in tongues unknown to the boy.
they seem to be reaching out to him.
welcoming him into their home.
he attempts another valiant escpae, but his body fails his, and he falls once more.
and then all of the sudden its a suit and tie event.
he know walks among the passed.
they whispers are now as loud as the screams of a dying boy.
the spirtis are visible now, and he is suprised when he looks them in the eyes.
these eyes arent ordinary windows to the soul.
he looks to see they have no souls at all.
blank stare.
the spirits are beautiful, they are content.
they were loved, but now are forgotten.
the play the most beautiful music. the most soothing of tunes.
every note played is another moment closer to inner peace.
its hard to resist them when he sees what they have to offer.
he has no feeling, except for the feeling in his heart, he can feel it beating.
and it is racing.
he tries to escape once more but his world is spinning.
the world around him is tumbling down.
the sky is falling, but it will fall forever.
the dead dance in a wild frenzy.
chaos.
surely these vile creatures have gone mad.
the boy is afriad out of his mind.
pools of sweat and tears form around his lifeless body.
his soul is shaking, down to the bones which he no longer has.
and then, everything stops.
the music is gentle once more, and the dead now dance the waltz.
they are beautiful once more.
the boy is a changed man.
he dances alongside the spirits, who have welcomed him into their home.
he is at peace, for he has left the cemetary days behind.

The Showdown at Sunsdown

a showdown at sunset

i dont care how blue your eyes are, you aint what you used to be.
theres nothing left to fix between you and me, and even if you tried it wouldnt help anyways.
theres gonna be a showdown.
after the sun goes down, and the city is asleep.
i killed the angel, what makes you think ill think twice about setting a traitor in her place?
dont worry, we'll keep it quiet. we wouldnt want to wake the neighbors over this.
theres gonna be a showdown. and anybody whos anybody is gonna be there.
youd fit right in, while i laugh and spit in your face.
you made a mistake the other day, when you thought about ending your life and not taking action.
i would pay to go to your funeral and weep with you mother,
i would laugh at the fact that she actually misses you.
there was a showdown, and i was victorious.

I See Your Burning Bridges

past habits haunt you in your sleep.
i take pity you, who seems to search for salvation by burning bridges.
it matters not your good intentions.
whats done is done, live and let live.
i will fight this war forever, until the day you right your wrongs.
leave this place, and forget our existence.
just burn another bridge, that will fix everything.

"emo" Is a lie.

People call myself, and other people that I know "emo". And quite frankly, I'm getting sick of it. None of us really know what emo is. How can you call someone something if you don't know what it means? Would you call someone a bitch if you thought it meant "beautiful"? No. You wouldn't.

My opinion on emo is that, infact, it is a genre. Emo is not sitting on your bathroom floor and cutting your wrists; it has nothing to do with suicide. Nor is it kids with long hair that cover their face or boys who kiss other boys. It has nothing to do with wearing tight clothes, or wearing makeup that stands out; girls and boys both. It is not having a hairstyle that is somewhat.. abnormal. Well, to everyone else. I believe that emo in reality is emotion, which all music is. So, if you're going to talk shit about people who listen to "emo music" because you listen to metal, rap, punk, or pop.. just know you're completely oblivious to what you're saying. All in all, just know that if you disrespect me because of my musical tastes I won't want anything to do with you. I will think you are ignorant and hopefully one day you'll realize it. If you would like to argue with me about what I just said, be my guest.

The following text in italics was written by a man named Andy Greenwald. Take the time to read it. Then, maybe you'll stop being a critic, and you'll think about what you're actually saying to people.

"The word has survived and flourished in three decades, two millenniums, and two Bush administrations. It's older than four baseball teams, six basketball teams, four football teams, and two soccer leagues. It's older than five former Yugoslav republics, the last seven national spelling champions, and Avril Lavigne. It's older than most of its fans.

It's been a source of pride, a target of derision, a mark of confusion, and a sign of the times.

It's been the next big thing twice, the current big thing once, and so totally over millions of times.

And yet, not only can no one agree on what it means, there is not now, nor has there ever been, a single major band that admits to being emo. Not one.

That's pretty impressive. And contentious. And ridiculous. Good thing too--because so is emo.

Emo is short for emotional. But isn't all music emotional? Well, yes, or at least it should be. Originally, emo was short for "emocore," a strain of hardcore punk that was notable for its obsession with feelings (as opposed to politics, anger, and smashing stuff up). Then it started to be applied to bands that weren't punk, to fashion trends, to sad-eyed kids in the back of class. It's always been mildly derisive, a term used by haters and critics to dismiss something that's overly weepy, self-indulgent, or unironic. Every generation that loves emo bands simultaneously rejects the term while claiming owership of it--meaning even if they won't admit they love emo, they certainly will say how much they hate everything that's been called emo since them. But still, no one knows what it is."
