Going Through Changes (My version)

Going Through Changes (My version)

A Poem by Chris Lotus
"

original song by Eminem

"

It was all giggles, laughs, and smiles at first
The usual story, lovey-dovey not expecting the worse
Said I was your soulmate, I felt the same about you
Despite that, it seems you still had your doubts too
When I speak, I know you expect me to be sincere
So much for all that, now its gotten us here
Sorrow in our eyes, hearts under demise
I'd rather hurt you with the truth, than kill you with lies
But it seems you couldnt bear it, so you cut me loose
For us, this is what you choose, with no attempt for a truce
So much for being true from within, through thick and thin
Now we're no longer lovers and not even friends
There's no way I could deny you and close my heart
But the truth didnt set make us free, it set us apart
Now I walk around feeling alive rotting dead
With Ozzy on repeat, stuck inside my head


Im going through changes (2x)


Laying wide awake in bed at night, unable to rest
Eyes wide open, sweat soaked, heart thumping in my chest
Couldnt take it anymore, I started pacing the floor
Didnt wanna be bothered so I locked my door
Feeling like im losing power, just look at me cower
Like im the damned soul the darkness wants to devour
Laid down quickly feeling tortured, having phases and turning
Shrouded in the shadows, heart racing and burning
Demons eating my soul until im hollow, laughing at my sorrow
Such a painful nightmare, I wonder if i'll wake tomorrow
Then I hear you call my name, echoing in my brain
That once sweet voice sours my head to a deadly migraine
I try to shout the demons away, but nothing comes out
Am I really dying or am I just really bummed out?
This isnt a normal nightmare, it feels like fast death
Now I black out, did I find rest or take my last breath?




Wake up in the morning, golden beams piercing my sight
Sore from the internal fight that I had last night
I try to make this day better, but look what comes through
Some news that you've moved on to someone new
We're you really broken or was this a setup?
Now its harder to keep my head up, the pain wont let up
Love must hate me, thats truly what it seems
Right now nightmares look more realistic than dreams
If things happen for a reason, tell me whats the purpose
of all things that I feared rising to the surface
I already lost my closest uncle unexpectedly
Dad's gone, apparently got finished wrecking me
I'd rather be full of scars than totally gory
Because im still here in one piece to tell the story
These makers arent plain scars, these are a branding
A sign that I took jabs and blows and im still standing
