American I'm just more of the same
We discarded each other like used tissues And you never looked back But I did I ripped through the trash Trying the find the broken shambles Left over from who you used to be Because you fractured yourself Again But this time you didn't give me enough time To put you back together You let me try When you knew it was useless You let me love When you knew it was fervorless You let me hope When you knew I was hopeless Though time has taught me That you are the hopeless one I cannot forget about you But I can move past the idea That you are the only one Who could possibly love A person like me But you You will always manipulate And toy with And loose the people who care about you And until you can move past that You will always be alone

It's Hard To Move On When Everything Reminds Me Of You
It makes me think of when You loved me If you did But at least then I felt wanted But I can't feel like that Cause you were no good for me And now I know That when the sun sets It leaves me alone with my thoughts And that's not a safe place to be Because your mindset is unhealthy And I get wrapped up in it And then there's no going back If there ever was

I'm At My Worst When I'm With You
It seems like my life is a train set on a track I'm tied to that track waiting for my own fate to destroy me And it will Or you will Whichever comes first And that kind face looking at me Over the brownies rapped in napkins That we say we will save for later But end up throwing away Is the only thing I can take solace in In knowing that there is something to look forward to When I'm walking down windowless hallways That remind me of prisons Everywhere but that table Everything but that ponytail Everyone but you Has proven that they can do better But we shared secrets over the Pacific And across the skies we made ourselves We made each other a fort to hide our cries in To escape the world in But that had to go too And I watch them all walk away From my bed Where they left me to be alone But they forgot about the most important thing You love me most.

At Least I Know You Love Me Most.
I was foolish to think that things ever Change It is always the same The only thing that changes is seasons I thought the north would help A change of scenery A change of pace A change of color A change of seasons Maybe a change in the way I see my life Or in the way life sees me But I was wrong Nothing changes

Waiting For The Spring To Come Again
I think It's about time to show my face I've been hiding behind personas Sung by my angels For far too long And it's starting to occur to me that I don't need to be ashamed of how I feel Or felt There are a stack of unfinished verses I tried to string together But the feelings aren't there anymore And this time I'm not lying I think I'm done I think I'm finally over with tear soaked pillow cases And giving the universe all my words But being too ashamed to admit their mine So they're mine They're mine I'm ready to come clean

I Am Not Ashamed Of My Words Anymore
I'm getting to that place where this feels necessary again Where my need for validation Runs higher than my self worth And I need someone to tell me I'm right To tell me I'm good To tell me I'm acceptable And not in a passive way I'm done being passive You tell me what's good for me And you go off and betray the only one who ever loved you And that not me And he's too far away to notice But the six hour drive is nothing to him Cause then he gets to see you And you're giving him up for someone a thirty second walk away Selfish You have the world on a string But that's not enough You need to cosmos too And I thought I was done with all this But it's becoming more and more evident that It never ends The stupidity never ends The selfishness never ends The greed It never ends And for me Second place is all I get I am perpetually wearing that blue ribbon I try to hide it from new faces Because it forces me to take off my mask Which is probably see-threw anyway Cause I've never been able to trick people for very long They all seem to come to the same conclusion eventually And when they do I'm left Sitting alone Wondering what I could have done better Id like to say the answer is nothing That I did all I could That they're all ****** And some day you'll find people who actually like you But those words are more tired than the socks left on the handles That will never be clean again

Welcome Back, Though I Doubt You've Missed Me
Bang My life flashed before my eyes And your face was nowhere to be seen

In A Moment
Can I be done yet? Can I be done with the lies And the fear that someday Your back will turn on me As it has to so many others Can I be done with the being let down Because the expectations I have of you Aren't even that high I just wanted you to be there for me But you left. Can I be done yet? Done with the broken promises Of love and otherwise Because you had no intention Of ever putting meaning into those empty words Can I be done with the back and forth I need a constant I need you to stay Or I need you to go But I don't need you popping in and out as you please And I would rather it is you just disappeared Can I be done yet? Can I be done with feeling like I'm not good enough for you Or your family Even though I have never tried harder To be worthy of someone Can I be done with the judgment And the subtle ways you prove to me That you will always be More important to me Than I am to you Can I be done yet? Can I be done with feeling like I owe you something When you have done Absolutely nothing for me Except make me feel as if I am unloved By the people I love most Can I be done with always worrying about you When you don't bat an eyelash at me Why do I know your problem But you don't know mine And more importantly Why don't you tell me yourself Can I be done yet? Can I be done with doing everything for you With nothing in return With promises of payback But those words always being empty And void of any true intention Can I be done with the disrespect And having to get along With everyone you tell me to But you never want to be around my friends Because they aren't good enough for you Can I finally be done yet?

The moons never talked to you The way you wanted them to Because they saw the truth They saw your lies In a way I could never The northern lights dimmed when they caught sight of you And the milky way shied away Because if stars are good at one thing It's fear You've painted my heart black And at first you told me it was so I could travel the night with you Unnoticed But I've recently realized how many things Are wrong with that statement You never cared about me You cared about the wind And how it disappeared when you got far enough away You liked the seclusion You feed off the feelings of lose People feel when you travel When the sky turns pink Thats when you'll return to me From you illustrious travels My dear Foreigner That is when I will trust you with my heart again When the sky tells me it is right Because the sky is the only person left who hasn't lied to me And all I want is to rest in her stars And all I want is for the lies to be done And all I want is for the loneliness to subside And it's not to much to ask for Because I know just how to do it

I Just Want To Sleep
People slip through my fingers like sand I can't hold onto anyone Because there is always someone better Why can't I ever be the someone who is better Why am I not worthy of the same love that the world gets Why do the children who I used to run with Now make me feel as if everything has been stolen from me Why am I never picked first in gym? Not just in gym Why am I never picked first at 2:00 am Why am I always available But the people around me would rather be elsewhere There are no exceptions to this state of being This loneliness The company is only temporary Because everyone who is important in my life Has someone more And it's no secret People see People laugh when I tell them who my best friends are Because they know I am not their's Why am I never their's Why am I always alone Sitting at my house Writing these words That you will never know were for you I guess this is just a one way road And I'm the idiot driving the wrong way You'll never truly grasp how important you are to me But I guess thats good It's saves me a lot of embarrassment
