Beastly spiral
Why am I in my feelings?!,
I'm the one to blame!,
You're not the problem,
I'm the one that's insane,
I'm the beast that you tried to tame,
With no luck you slipped away,
Now you're the beast she tries to tame,
And I'm sorry for making you that way...
I'm the one to blame!,
You're not the problem,
I'm the one that's insane,
I'm the beast that you tried to tame,
With no luck you slipped away,
Now you're the beast she tries to tame,
And I'm sorry for making you that way...

Bye...
Hide your heart,
Lock it away and throw away the keys,
I've become exactly who I didn't wanna be.
A danger to your heart, confusion to the mind,
A soulless demon to those who are blind.
I love you but I don't want you to be mine,
I don't wanna drown you,
Suffocate your light...
My heart is one that never healed over time,
I had to let you go,
I had to say goodbye...

I don't wanna drown you,
Suffocate your light...
My heart is one that never healed over time,
I had to let you go,
I had to say goodbye...

We talked, everything was going splendid,
Said to myself “I got me a new friend here”,
You seemed so cool even though we didn't talk very long,
Who knew the second I let my guard down everything would go wrong.
You said your birthday was coming soon,
“inviting you to my pool party, you won't be alone , you'll have fun too”,
I couldn't make it that day, so we planned a friendly get together for two.
Suspicions rose, I didn't pay attention to it,
Everyone I talk to is usually real with me,
“what makes this time so different ”. ...

Friend or Foe?
Not everyone is your friend,
Not everyone is your girl or bro,
Ride or die on the go...
They'll smile in your face and talk trash as soon as you leave,
When you're down they're never around,
But when u rise they all want a peace of the prize,
But that's when you realise that they're all snakes in disguise,
All they do is lie, lie and fuxking lie!...
Not everyone is your friend,
Not everyone is your girl or bro,
Ride or die on the go...
“show me your friends and I'll tell you who you be”,

Death is Calling
I dove in...,
At first how peaceful it seemed,
Calmness of the water, blue, cloudy, sun kissed skys reflecting back at me,
I can't breathe...,
Struggling to get back up,
Pulling, pushing, shit! I can't get out,
My head feels like it's about to explode, my heart feeling ever so still, the darkness closing in,
Water intake is too much, my heart's about to stop...
A light..., go closer to the light,
Fight!, I'm trying but I don't have the strength, the might,
A shadow, the image of a face,
A face?, yes! A face,

Fears
The more numb I am, the less pain I feel
It seems like time isn't willing to help me heal,
Heal from the pain and hurt stirring inside,
The scars that I try to hide,
I'm so tired, I just don't have that fight!
I saw myself collapse while watching my sister,
She woke up, found me, blood everywhere, this time no blisters,
I felt her screams and tears burning through me,
Even though she's so little, it feels like she's the only one who knows me.
I can't leave her,
Fuck!, what the hell is wrong with me?!
I'm tryna suppress these...

False Truth
I can't look u in the eyes cause you'll know of these feelings i try to hide,
I deny when u talk about it cause I know it's the truth, all because I didn't wanna admit I love u so soon.
Well guess what?.....fuck! It!- I love u lol
I just hope your words and feelings are true.
I wonder when u leave what it'll be like without u,
U probably won't miss me cause you'll be out with someone new.
Fuck these thoughts, we're in the present
For now I'm fucking and loving u 👅

I wish u were here to advise me through this hell hole called life.
I've been so numb lately...,
I just wanna be with u, feel your hugs
Hear your laugh.
Lol, it's so hard, I miss u so much
I dont know how much longer I can hold on,
I'm trying to be strong
Fear and pain consuming every thought,
Makes me wanna give up.
So many times he tempts me,
That devil of a man named “DEATH”
Calling to me, his sweet seductive voice,
Promising peace,...so much peace
Mentally screaming for help,
Emotionally done for,
I just need him...

Regrets
I regret not telling u “I love u” as often as I should have,
I regret not holding and hugging u longer, reassuring u that things get better in time,
I regret not reminding u of how precious u are,
I regret not reminding u of how blessed u are
All I've got are regrets and time.
Time to think,
Time to hurt ,
Time to heal,
These regrets,....burnt into my heart and mind,
Bad dreams, nightmares that won't go away,
Reminders of the mistakes I once made.
Only if u were here to listen, to advise, to tell me these bad dreams will go...

In Time
Pillows filled with tears
Only they know how I feel
I cry and pray some nights
For god to keep u safe sunshine
If only words could flow
All my secrets you'd know
It pains, it hurts to keep inside
Words wanting to be free but retreat and hide
Feelings bubbling, wanting to explode
If only these words could flow,
Heavy on my heart, heavy on my mind
Seems that these words will flow in their own time...
Or will forever be kept inside.
Only they know how I feel
I cry and pray some nights
For god to keep u safe sunshine
If only words could flow

Words wanting to be free but retreat and hide
Feelings bubbling, wanting to explode
If only these words could flow,
Heavy on my heart, heavy on my mind
Seems that these words will flow in their own time...
Or will forever be kept inside.

Damaged
Is it weird that when we met I felt like it was faith,
I feel weird cause we smashed on the first date,
I'm not with u cause you remind me of her,
I'm with u cause when im with u my heart hurts,
It hurts not cause it's broken,
It hurts cause of these feelings, things i can't explain, words unspoken.
Your smile, your eyes, the way u look at me,
The more I think of u, the clearer shit seems.
Hearing u say I love u,
I melted,
If u ever leave then,
It'll be a felony,
Don't break the laws of my heart,
Cause eventually You'll be...
