time
i hope you that you could understand
this is not what i had planned
sometimes theres power in pain
and there’s the silence in the rain
i promised you the world again
everything was in my hands
all the love that you could see
it came from me
please don’t worry now
it will all turn around
we now reside on different land
but this much i understand
let’s keep this love alive
we can make it if we try
so say what’s on your mind
cause i don’t know what’s inside
...

get away
get away
i wish you could feel the way
i do right now because i know the truth
the faintness of melancholy creeping
unconscious to single every mistake
i think i am unable to save
all demons born holy until they
show they don’t know how to behave
living life on the edge of lucifers blade
you don’t comprehend what’s at stake
until hope ricochets all over the place
and then fear starts to spray
tainted into hate and drives everyone insane
all...

ghost
why don’t we shut the lights
i’m not good at hiding
and terrified of goodbyes
i’m not gonna lie i know i didn’t try
my eyes stream way too many tears
that now i can’t see you clear
everything i feared you have disappeared
this has been one hell of year
all that’s left are the pictures we took
i hope you still have that book
and sometimes you at least give it a look
you slipped through my hands like sand
you’ll never understand
this pain that i withstand
i just want to make amends
...

smile
my mind is a battlefield that i surrendered to
because time never healed the wounds
i suppressed and concealed not caused by you
life’s worth of hurt erupting inside of me
i feel my heart corrupting right upon my sleeve thoughts race faster than my own heartbeat
i’ve reached the end of my rope
so i tied it tightly around my throat
closing my eyes and letting go of all my hope
just as everything fades to black
i see you smiling back
the rope it snaps
and i collapse

memories
you cannot retrace
what has been erased
follow the sorrow down
to a sunken place
that you cannot escape
tolerate the heartache
you can’t walk away
you hate the way
you can’t feel the pain
like acid rain
life decays
yesterday tomorrow & today
start to overlay
subdue and void of hue
i wont admit i’m avoiding you
nothing left for you to do
just bid me adieu
the light in my eyes left with you
trying to reminisce
this was once so tangible
evaporate into mist,...

DISGUISED
i’ve disguised
my demise
so just please
close your eyes
no matter how
hard you try
distance divides
you can’t save
me this time
give up on me &
who i used to be
in the name
of our love’s
sweet melody
in the wake of
my mistakes
in my memory
there’s nothing left
to see or contemplate
let me be the casualty
let me demonstrate
you stitched
up my heart
but now it
all fell apart
im numb to the pain
unable to feel at all ...

paid my dues
i paid my dues
made time for you
i sold my soul
to die alone
and all i need
your company
i try so hard
my soul is scarred
maybe it’s me
who’s the enemy
everything isnt what it seems
i hide but
inside i explode
i know your view of me skewed
i don’t know how things got this bad
i wish i didn’t hurt you
i know i cannot change the past
searching for a meaning
reaching for the stars
underground is my ceiling
is that why this feels so hard ...

the gallows
this thing i keep tied
in the back of my mind
sometimes unwinds
and turns me blind
i say things
that are out of my control
i do things
to ease life’s mundane toll
but you’ll never know
intoxicated with negative feelings
void of emotion and any meaning
i may be silent but inside i’m screaming
yet you’re perplexed why i’m deaf
to every word you’ve ever said
you immediately got up and left
once my life became a mess
voices that i hear
this whisper in my ear
it’s all so...

where i stand
standing here for what feels like an eternity
too afraid to contemplate my own fate
for so long you played me like a plague
like acid rain washed your face away
once ingrained in my brain
your memory is a haze
that i can’t completely erase
today finally came the day
that i no longer throw my heart away
broke free from the chains
you forcefully tied to me
no longer restrained
with this strain of decay
even if my bones may break
cast your shadow of doubt
instead of wasting away
i’ll find my way out...

chrysanthemum
you’ve all left
gone one by one
i wept because i slept
trying to avoid coming undone
dying inside just for fun
never to fill the bottomless void
headed where i’ll never see the sun
this is my own choice
besides there’s nowhere left to run or hide
the last ride begins i rejoice before i’ve begun to die
here’s a one way ticket to my own demise
i reside on this throne of bones all alone
hiding from my sins i’ve never atoned
shining so bright, my crimson covers blown
cast your stone, with all...

momentarily
my heart grew cold throughout the years
i closed myself off in fear
& i had no clue
but the world is weird
it brought me here
and now its all so clear
theres nothing else i’d rather do
than be right here
next to you
you can’t read the writing on the wall
if nobody’s there to catch you fall
but there you are
no matter how far away
i know you’ll stay and make sure i’m ok
you shoulda seen the way
your eyes locked onto mine
blushing from the way you looked into my eyes
time stands still...
