Hollow things should seem wrong
You haven't minded them
Since you realized everything
Inside of you that mattered
Had long since disappeared
You revel in empty parking garages
You can scream and scream
And it echoes on without consequence
You always thought you were more like
An empty parking garage
No one cared much to stay and shout with you

You wake up in the morning
With dust on your pillow
From the nothing that goes through your head
Trying not to remember
The hurricane
That ravaged your mind
And the reason
We don't speak anymore

You're just another habit
That I need to break
I've gotten in too deep,
Oh what a mistake
I tell myself It's different
When know I'm the same
And I'm sick of your breathing
Like a drug to my mind
I'll get you out
One day at a time

Do you drown at the thought
Of finally being happy
Because its been so long
Since you've seen the world in color
Spring doesnt seem to come around anymore
Your sky is gray, gray, gray
And flat, like the curve of your mouth
And whenever you try
To play piano like you used to
The keys all sound out of tune
But you've gotten used to them
Wrong seems normal
And being happy scares you

are you afraid of parking garages
do you think of empty parking spaces
with empty cars beside them
like your own compartmentalized mind
do the empty spaces scare you
like my own scare me
are you afraid of the dust
are you afraid of the ghosts
sitting where people once were
are you afraid of parking garages
are you afraid of the lonely silence
are you afraid of the concrete walls
that are more solid than anything
that you have ever created
are you afraid
that you'll be just as cold
just as lifeless
are you afraid of parking garages
are you afraid of where they take you
are you afraid of the airports
that you always end up in
missing those that never come back
are you afraid of parking garages
are you afraid that you'll park
and that you'll never leave
are you afraid of parking garages
are you afraid of the flickering lights
and your own shadow
bouncing in front you
are you afraid of going somewhere
and never coming home
are you afraid of your home
and when they asked you where home is
did you stutter
because you almost said someone's name
instead of a place
or is your home that parking garage
blank and grey
empty and hollow
are you afraid of parking garages

And the thought of you
razor in hand
tears on your face
and blood down your arms
Breaks my heart
I don't want you to feel alone
because listen to me:
You never are
your demons lock you in
keeping everyone else out
but we're pounding at the door
screaming "I love you"
Wishing we could find a key
Wishing you could hear us
You are never alone
you only think you are
please don't let your mind
be your downfall

no one believes in me
no one thinks that i can see what i want to be
no one thinks i can do even one thing on my own
they say i have no ambition
that i left home with no ammunition
to fight in a war of attrition
with no foreseeable outcome
but i'm not cattle to be herded
i am a voice to be heard
and listened to
i will accomplish so many things
i will set out to be anything
i will be set on the highest pedestal
my life will not be some humorous spectacle
my dreams are so much more than skeletal
i'm more than the hollowed out bones that no one knows
where nothing but emptiness grows
because you don't know me
you don't see that i'll be free to scream
so take me from these demons
i am no longer the old shirt
left hanging in your closet
i am no longer a speck of dirt
floating aimlessly for you to witlessly grasp at me as i head to see the minds that i can change
my voice will be heard from the high heavens to the depths of hell
my words will mend the broken skin that we all live in
my ideas will free us from the suffering and the covering of our eyes
and i will not just be believed in
i will be known
and you'll wish i could see you

I destroy myself with every word
That falls from your lips
The blood spilling over your chin
Once dripping, now gushing
The handprint outlined on my cheek
(That matches perfectly with your hand)
Stings less than what you tell me
And i believe im not better off alone
Because at least you tell me the truth

I broke the window
I didn't want anything shielding me from reality
I'd rather face it head on
I felt the cold wind on my skin as I slept
The heat on my toes in the afternoon
I remembered how I used to watch the wind and rain
Beating upon the glass
And I would look at the way the sunlight streamed through
I still can't decide which I prefer:
Feeling life's beauties and pains
Or watching them while I hide away.

I set everything on fire that reminded me of you
All that's left is to burn myself
I never knew what Hell felt like
until your arms wrapped around me
And I felt your breath on my ear
As you whispered every word I heard you say to her
I got chills when you looked at me,
but the kind that felt like spiders crawling under my skin
My heart stopped in a way reminiscent of a car crash
I guess thats really what you were
You almost took me to where I wanted to go
before sending me headfirst through the windshield into the debris
You walked alway, unfazed and unharmed
you looked back at me
And took her in your arms
