No matter how much I cried and poured myself out over these words, I can tell you one thing: I will still look back and wish I didn't
like condensation on my window You will make your way inside How you enter, I will never know Not like a ghost gliding through the door But a stray piece of spirit you didn't know existed Swaying on the inside of my mind Summer arrived and my home became the sun and leaves, sleeping in hammocks, and swinging trees The winds rocking me asleep And I, blissfully unaware I left The front door unlocked And I misplaced my key But I've spent too much time worrying about how and what if Too much time wondering if you only knew There's Too many songs I haven't heard and too much time wasted waiting for you And one day there will be someone who will ring the doorbell and ask to come in And we will sit and talk And be the only things on each others minds And like condensation on my window I will wipe you away Close the curtain And shut my eyes

Like condensation on my window,
I made melodies for you Think of all the tracks gone to waste The kind stuck in my head for days The kind on the radio That seem easy to love   but soon become overplayed

It's a taste of a sorrow you can't drink and it stays forever on your tounge It's the things that they said pushing you to the edge cause you know that you'll never be one It's the bones hidden inside your closet And the corpse open eyed in your hands It's the way that you walk What you think how you talk It's okay it's okay Wait 'till they see what you've planned So smile like they never cut you open like you're not bleeding out on the ground Well I've got a new type, a new type of poison and they'll wish they never shut me out They're gonna miss me they'll say that they're sorry Well they're gonna notice when I'm not around 'Cause I've got a new blood I've got a new blood And I'm golden from the inside out Think of the person you should be Now think of the person you are Think of the way when it hurts you will pray, But when you're good your pretend you're not far Think of how this is your body And no one else sees what you see You are right here and the one thing you fear is that they will remember all the things that you did So smile like they never cut you open like you're not bleeding out on the ground But I've got a new type a new type of poison and They're gonna miss me they'll say that they're sorry Well they're gonna notice when I'm not around 'Cause  I've got a new blood I've got a new blood And I'm golden from the inside out What are you crying about this time? They'll never catch you Just keep on running Running I just wanted to make this right This is your blood This is your pain Let the river come and wash it all away

Hello It's nice to see you Across the room with your chin on your hand Quietly listening, pensively waiting For the time to end On my end no thought is given Ok, Maybe a glance from time to time, I must admit "What do you know about him? He doesn't seem too bad." Hello Its nice to meet you This time in a different way I make jokes and laugh it off But I'm starting to notice more and more often That I'm asking questions and talking more than I'd like Just so you can look up and see me Just see me, that's all I want I haven't been like this in over four years I forgot how this felt and why I waited so long to feel like this again Hello It's nice to speak to you for the first time since I first saw you I pick up my spilled bag early so I can run out with the bell Through the hallway on the opposite of my next class like I do everyday And everyday I wonder if I should say something; "Did we have any homework?" And you would answer But I say nothing And I always wish I did Hello I'd like to tell you So many things that I know I never will I never thought I'd pray for small talk Yet here I am being put on hold One conversation, one laugh that I produced is all I want! I just don't know how to get it Hello If it's okay with you Let's go somewhere alone and pretend to be people we're not Hello hello If she's the one for you That's fine but let the verdict be close Second place is fine But I'd like to be in the running Hello hello hello The things I thought were true Don't hold up like they used to You don't have to play guitar Your job doesn't have to be a dream Everything new I learn is suddenly fine by me Hello hello hello hello I'd like to be to you A classmate A partner A colleague An old friend If that's what you need me to be Just please Don't let me be a stranger

I walked away And you didn't realize I was looking back because I loved you I walked away And you didn't realize That I walked away, But I didn't run

Gone.
I can’t hear anyone at all I think I went deaf but I still hear the door slamming and the harsh screams telling me to wake up I see lips moving, but no words come out I hear machines beeping, but everything stays the same late at night I wonder where you went and why you had to leave you must be so happy now, in your wondrous place without me but slowly, I’m losing sense of who you are I can’t move my arms or feel the tips of my fingers my throat is closing my thoughts become scattered and I can’t remember where I am --at least now the beeping is softer I can’t hear myself at all I guess that I must have left, too

Awake
I do not have a reason to be sad I do not hunger or freeze or burn so I will put your weight on my shoulders every day I will carry the pain the grief the mourning I will become the scapegoat of your transgressions before my own in my mind I will hunger I will freeze I will burn because the sorrows I already carried wasn't more than I deserved
