it's just a band like you / are just a person.

you told me you were dead inside, / but when i lie next to you i can / still feel your pulse beating.

a beautiful irony
today I learned / that you are named after a poetry / (one of my favorite poets to be honest)

a deadly addiction
you are poison, / but i can't get away from you, / so I am slowly dying,

a note to the highschool girl with blonde hair:
I. you don't even know who you are yet, but you still have to stand on top of buildings and scream what you stand for. people won't hear your values unless you write it on their skin and tattoo it into their minds, so that’s what you’ll do. / II. you aren't vain or stupid for idolizing singers with blonde hair and blue eyes, because they look like you, and yet they’re strong and beautiful. it’s okay when you connect to their music then you connect to your favorite boy band. they’ll teach you how your resident fuckboy means nothing compared to you. they’ll teach you how to winged eyeliner, and how to put your hair in a messy bun. they’ll teach you a new love for songwriting and you’ll probably want to start playing guitar, but the biggest thing is that you relate to them and they give you confidence. / III. wear your goddamn choker and straighten your hair (or leave it wavy if you’d rather). wear your dark eyeliner and cover your eyelashes with mascara. if you want to wear blue knee high socks, please do. keep your hipster shoes untied if you want. ignore the fuckboy who thinks you look nice but not in the right way, and go buy that dark lipstick you've been wanting for weeks.

a reminder for the idiot that keeps crawling back

broken love
they told me I couldn't love you / not in the way one would expect / but from snide comments and laughter

crumbling
one time i told you not to let go, / and you swore on your life that you wouldn't. / you pinky promised that you'd
