Undertow
I told him well live happily ever after, with no one but ourselves
And all well ever be
is dust on empty shelves
Nothing to show
But Memories that could've been
A love made up of lies
Full of selfish need and sin
Youre Unpredictable
Like an undertow
You'd hold me tight
And then let go
I just wanted to know what we were doing
Though afraid of what id hear
Ignorance never felt so safe
To know- my biggest fear.
And all well ever be

Full of selfish need and sin

You'd hold me tight
And then let go
I just wanted to know what we were doing
Though afraid of what id hear
Ignorance never felt so safe
To know- my biggest fear.

Beautiful liar
She looked at herself and thought,
"One day, I'll be beautiful. "
And she knew she would be
Cause she always liked
what she wld see
And everything was fine
Until they told her it wasn't
She couldn't understand why
They told her she shld lose some weight
She said that she would try
Then She stopped looking at herself
No longer liked what she would see
Drew dark black lines underneath her eyes
Shut off her heart,
Opened her mind.
No one ever asked,
But she was doing just fine.
She...

The words you'll never hear
I can't remember when tomorrow became today
Or when I missed the opportunity to say what I had to say
But the sun rose and it fell
It's too much now; I won't break your heart
I guess I didn't accept your answers
Difficult, i know, but tell me I'm not alone.
Take me back, I want to go home
Sorry I fucked it all up
I'll never forgive myself, if that's enough
It's too late
There's too much to say now
I couldn't break your heart
Why can't you read me?
It's those things you just don't know
The thoughts
Toss one back, put...

Selfish desire
How could I ask you to love in me the one thing I could never love in you?
How could I ask you to love all that I am, when I can't apply that to you too?
I want to come as I please, and leave when I'm done.
I want to be held in the morning as if I'm your only one.
I don't want to love you, not tomorrow, not today.
Though every time I watch you leave, I wish that you would stay.
Cause your touch is lightning no one else can make me feel
But you and i could never share emotions that are real
I watch the door for your footsteps when I crawl into my bed...
