about

Strange how you can write something during a point in your life, but then years later as the layers unfold, it finds deeper meanings and attachments. The song is called Donna, but over the years, it has grown and attached itself to many different people in my life. Since writing it, I have found peace in the relationship with the "Donna" this song was originally written about.

lyrics

Your guilt's embraced by a slow decay
Well that's just fine, go look the other way
I can walk tall and I'll stand so proud
Though I'm crushed inside, here behind this wall
It's hard to breath with the air so thick
Most thoughts of you just fuckin' make me sick
Don't have room in my heart to hold such hate
I pour it out here to help alleviate
And I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore

I needed you to stand along my side
Your precaution forced me down to further hide
What scratched the surface, now a gaping wound
And it bleeds me out whenever I think of you
You can't even give me an apology
That's not clouded by your desperate apathy
You beg me, plead me to live and let live
But when I do, it's the same bullshit
And I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore

How many times can you avert your face?
Now all I want is my goddamn space
You got your wish and had to have your way
Never once thought about the price I pay
Don't want your excuses, don't want your lies
I won't live your life of compromise
If all this is, is water under the bridge
Then how come I'm still drowning in it?
And I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore
I don't want to care about it anymore

Skulls & Butterflies

It is the breaking of my heart and the triumphs you obtain when you smash through walls. Life is pain, it's suffering, but it's also beautiful because of it. Lyrics just as raw and honest as I am, maybe even more so. An intense, emotional ride. My heart on my sleeve, the baring of my soul. ... more
