American Some people's lives are so boring. I look at them and question whether they're satisfied. I'm never satisfied. So who's losing? Them or me? I don't know. Check out my music. soundcloud.com/SunBLVD
There is a lot of truth hiding in between the lies And the goodbyes Give your reasons why See me end them before you start them So on and so on Sounds like BLAH BLAH BLAH You're glued to your iPhone Guess I'll send a text Get you back on the same level I'm on Whoever said breaking up was hard to do Never met miserable you Are you in there Can your eyes see me suffering Drowning in the silence Swimming in the sea of your indistinct melody You said you're in love with me Excuse me if I don't take that lightly You see all I have are words That I dress in flowery language Yes they disguise the hurt But there is truth behind these sunken ships Sailing in the eye of the storm I could lyrically paint you a million vivid pictures But every stroke of genius would fall to your ignorance I write you stories You're oblivious As if I wrote them for someone else But you play for me your sweetest melody And it proves to be the only thing that's soothing me When chaos is ensuing me Dancing in circles with the serpents With the lights off Toes curled towards the clouds I kiss the heavens and brush the ground off I've been low Hidden behind shades and cowering in my mind's cave My heart gave From love lost Love hurts most days Running from my demons again Heavy on my heels Lucky me You'd catch up too

Love and Other Demons
Don't make me out to be so Overemotional Irrational thoughts seldom come to mind I've got it all together Well... I mean to say my screws ain't loose But you know it all falls down sometimes So forgive me if I just want to feel everything I've known sadness Because I've known you It's maddening how numb you are Empathy Simple But you've dressed it in complexity So don't make me out to be so Overemotional When all I have are feelings

Overemotional
Half of the time it slipped my mind I'm not ignoring the thoughts Pouring out of your membrane I noticed the game change when you decided to stay I must say I never thought we'd still be here I'm still feeling the same fears I remember you left before We've been here before A million times before So of course walking towards the door seems logical If I didn't know You'd probably go and chase me down Before I even stop to catch my breath So what's left of the path you choose to take Avoiding the wrath of your previous mistakes And if for heaven's sake I choose to find the meaning in what the hell I've been doing with my time Half the time it probably slipped my mind What we were fighting for Because I ignore the voice telling me to hide from the boogie man He only wants to hold your hand He'd rather keep you in complacency because he is content Creeping on me Sleeping on me I guess because my pillow top is comfy Pillow talk is humming Something tells me these words sound untrue But he knew **** he knows how to unlock my secrets slipping in and unveiling my soul How long will it last Lust ain't the meaning of love Taking your word for it ain't the meaning of trust And if I'm honest I'd say you don't know me at all We having only existed in the space between these bedroom walls If these four walls could talk all they'd have to tell Is a story of a romance that grew aflame And the lovers who turned to looking for an easy escape Because neither of them knew how to say... I love you

Second time's the charm Oh, shame on you We speak only hypothetically The break couldn't be more concrete It's hard Hard as a rock Placed between me And this vacant space They call ... you Third time's the dawn Oh shame on you all Lover's hearts long to get home safely But lately, it's chaos in these streets Homie have a heart I start to tell you You're mine... But you're not But you are... Til you're not Broken poetry Spilling from a lonely heart No I don't want to hold your hand That seems complacent With a void in your chest Shouldn't there be room for me ?

Absent Longing
If I wear to choose to hide these lip stains From the fabric of your collar I'd choose **** Put on some chapstick maybe But instead I paint my mouth with the darkest of lipstick To match with your crude taste I want you to remember me Every ounce of my black and burgundy Never forget the longing you feared And I willingly embraced Leave my mark So you can trace your steps back to your emptiness I'm the girl with the dark lipstick They'll match my lips with the imprint That dirties your collar Yes I was there Make them know how unaware eyes were The secrets you held trapped behind your bedroom door Words say too much But these blacks and burgundies say just enough.

Dark Lipstick
Was I supposed to dream for you lover? I've forgotten the things I once thought I knew. Those moments we shared under covers, When the skies were clear and our heart's were true. Perhaps I sung you too many love songs. Perhaps you didn't prefer my tune. Perhaps I lost my memory in February, Unprepared for your arrival in June. My soul cried out to you then, Now my soul weeps for me. My eyes have dried and left tear stains, Saline's plastered on my cheeks. Excuse my wince dear lover. Winter came and went. When spring sprang I sprung from your covers, And my heart hasn't looked back since. I may have forgotten the things I thought I once knew, Like how you held me til I was ensconced in your scent. But the pain you've caused dear lover, I can't help but not forget.
