alzheimer
Nothing fills me with rage more than seeing my father sometimes, the fact his mental state has allowed him to completely forget all the times he hit me, or all the times he screamed until I cried so hard my eyes bled. I envy him, being able to forget; I'm not so lucky, all the scars and permanent injuries you've inflicted, they'll be there even after you're long gone.
Don't come into this house again, thinking I'm still the little boy you can hit because he can't stand up to you. I'm much bigger than you now, I can hit much harder than you ever could... and I promise, I'll make...

neon lights
look at the brightside
the neon lights
it's not that bad
scream louder
not so bad
look at the brightside
the LED lights
it's not that sad
write it out
not so bad
look at the brightside
the streetlights
it's not that hard
paint a picture
don't cry
not now
don't cry
the neon lights
it's not that bad

not so bad
look at the brightside

it's not that hard
paint a picture
don't cry
not now
don't cry

Im strong and i know it
But
Sometimes i just want to crawl away
From everything...
I have good days
And i have bad days
Everyone does
But i’m not like everyone
If a normal person might feel
Really great,
One day
And the next just
Feel lazy
Then with me...
One day i am able
To wear a mask
And show
That i am great
On other days
I think how can i escape
Im and extrovert
I love people
But then theres this
This feeling
That makes me hate
E V E R Y T H I N G
How is it...
But

Take a gun, take knife, take a rope
Will it ever help
No
But it feels good
Doesn’t it
You feel like you can escape
From
All of this
You think im writing to you
Not really
Im writing to ME
It’s a story
They guy sitting here next to
Looking
It’s not a story really
He judges me
And im fine with it because everyone does it to me
I can never be just me, i have to act
That everything is okay
When really nothing ever really is fine
I have to act like i am tough,
But i am not
Why do i have...

What if...
VERSE 1
What if I told you
I wanted to die?
That I'm tired of living,
of being alive.
VERSE 2
What if I said
it gets worse at night?
The thoughts get louder
and nothing is right.
CHORUS
The truth is,
you could slit my throat
and with one last gasping breath
I would apologize
for bleeding on your shirt
VERSE 3
What if I lied
and said everything was fine?
No, I'm not crying,
I swear I'm alright.
VERSE 4
What if I died?
I doubt you'd even cry. ...

Dying Inside
I’m sick of crying,
Tired of trying,
Yeah, I’m smiling,
But inside I’m dying.
I’ve built my walls up high
so no one can see the real me
So you won’t see how broken I really am
I don’t want to hurt you anymore, anymore
Because you are the only one I have left in this world
I’m sick of crying,
Tired of trying,
Yeah, I’m smiling,
But inside I’m dying. (2 times)
I’ve come to realize
that I’d rather suffer myself
than let others suffer around me
Humans are like glass, we brake and...
