We've been a great story A dramatic romantic comedy I'd say There's been stolen kisses and long hugs And some abysmal turbulence along the way The only thing that kept us going Was us trying to keep our sinking ship ashore But don't you think it's been too long Maybe it's time to not try anymore? Maybe it's time we let go And accept that this time we can't survive We had a beautiful friendship But it's always an explosion when two intensities collide It's too much of a push and pull game It's too much of myself I give away It's too little of consistency And too much time spent in dismay You talk to me when it's convenient I'm too much for you, you said So I reduced myself to fit your dimensions But I can't lose myself instead So maybe we should just let it be this time I'm too tired to try for us, and for you So maybe it's time we don't try at all Maybe it's time we actually see this through.

Maybe its time
talk to him when he’s down he hates to admit that he is make him laugh when he doesn’t want to you wouldn’t want to give that smile a miss remind him he’s being silly when his “space” gets to his head but in a way he thinks its his own idea or he’ll ignore you instead On most days, if i’m not wrong he’ll want to leave everything on a whim thats when you’ll give him a hug and tell him you believe in him but everyday, i assure you he’ll be able to make you smile sometimes even one small conversation makes your day worth the while and he wont know how to say how he feels he probably doesn’t even know it himself but what he’s thinking reeks out in every word he says i cant be there for him i cant love him the way he deserves to be i’d hate anyone who hurt him i just wish that person wasn’t me. love him everyday, he deserves it and make him laugh a lot he deserves the world really, so love him in the ways i could not.

In the ways I could not
When I can't recognise who I am When I can no longer keep up the show and I break down in my pretence, Don't let me go. When I push you away And tell you I don't need you anymore Show me your anger But don't let me go. I'll scream out my silence And peak when I'm low But when I'm in my ditch Don't let me go I'll say I love the height But I'm afraid to look below Don't let me take the fall Don't let me go. When I don't know my own mind And make my lies come true I know the one thing I'll do Is hold on to you Maybe it's a lot to ask for Maybe I'm overstepping here But just believe in me When things aren't that clear I'm sorry for the words I said Your hurt is their echo But I hope and hope that through everything You won't let me go.

Don't let me go
You know that little voice? That tells you that you can't make it It never goes away I'm afraid It's like a disease, it's chronic But then it meets ambition Acute, stinging ambition And for a while it seems that voice Found a nice prevention But it's just muffled that's all, The voice never goes away Haven't you heard from the doctors? Chronic things stay The voice you can deal with It's in your head, so you pretend Ignore it, walk ahead And smile at its familiarity in the end But the problem comes when a person Becomes chronic for you You'll never be without him But never enough with to make do So maybe it will be a long while Maybe you'll almost give it away But haven't you heard no matter what? Chronic things stay

Chronic
Bottle up bottle up You think you're being strong Keeping all that in your head You're just doing yourself wrong Yes it makes you feel strong at first To be alone without interrupt But you're not alone with your thoughts When you bottle up, bottle up You're young and only human Maybe that's why you go about with your strut To collect your little bottles With endless bottoms to fill up But don't you see they aren't endless If they were why else would you need so many That you collect and drag with your shoulders The bottles which are way too heavy Sooner or later you'll drop them One by one with a frown There'll be shattered glass by your feet As your bottles fall down Even if some days are worse than ever And the days you just can't turn around I'll be there as a lid Bottle up, or bottle down

Bottle up
You’ve tried your best To tame the demons I host So that I fit the version of me That you love the most And I understand why. The reason is not worth shame You want to love me But only if I fit the frame I’m not the girl who Would let you control her I’m not the girl who Would forget everyone else in a spur Now you say I never cared That I’m throwing away what we’ve got But why don’t you understand that I cant be someone I’m not But the past is the past And there no point opening closed doors I was never yours to own But I was always yours.

Yours, Truly
Inside each one of us, under the buried lies, are a million hidden truths And an unsung sacrifice. The sacrifice to keep it all within, the sacrifice much mocked. But I fail to see the issue With keeping it all locked. It's safe and sound inside with no one else to see and no one else to judge, My million hidden sanctities. Why tell the world your secret when it's only going to spread and ****** away that little truth that last bit of thread. So, yes it's a façade, and I have a million layers of complexities. But in the end I'll find comfort in my million hidden sanctities.

A Million Hidden Sanctities
It's raining And somehow the rain always brings me to you The chaotic way it falls on the roof And the calm way it falls on me I don't think of you because you're the same as it I think of you because you're not You don't wash away a part of me Neither do you envelop me into who you are Instead you pull all pieces of me together You turn my scars to tattoos You let me be my own puzzle piece That fits with yours You're not the rain, you aren't You don't hide the sun and conquer Instead you lay down with me And let our skins get sunburnt You aren't the rain. You're everything, instead.

Rain
A lot changed the past year And a lot has remained the same It's a new circumstance But the same blame You're you, and I'm me But we're strangers, don't you see? Our reflections have changed But we're still walking down that street With a song on our lips And a smile on our cheeks Yes realities changed And pretences built And we don't share the same smiles They're masked by guilt So yes maybe I won't talk to you as often And maybe you'll leave a thousand things unsaid And maybe you won't be there tomorrow But you'll always be in the life I lead.

Cheers Look where we are now Heads bowed down And eyes away From glances that meant everything And smiles that stayed Look where you've brought us To strangeness within and with each other And I know you well enough To know you won't bother But  I know you too well To not know that you hate the feel Of The sound of this silence That's come in between There's nothing else that can be done Your words won't fix what's no longer there But for something that's nothing There's a lot hanging in the air They're not words of anger Or apology or hate or of choice They're just words, however hollow Because it's not the words, it's your voice Just your voice to say How you've been and how you've missed me And wonder how we let go of something Of such indisputable beauty But this doesn't mean that it's going to be okay This doesn't mean that our ending was just a Break This means that you and I, Are just as hard to forget as we were to make But funnily enough, something I thought so pure Ended corrupt, and ***** messy You put me on a high pedestal And brought me down in a jiffy You know, you did pull me down But to a ground I needed to see And look up and see that high horse Was barely even reality. So Cheers to the moments I felt were true Cheers to the lost times that were yet to come Cheers to the weak friends we were Cheers to the strangers we've become
