Up and down I go
From high to low low low.

Happy in the day
but sad in every way.

Hurting from the inside out
masking what im all about.

I can't control my love
it goes wherever it wants
Whether I myself am wanted there or not
It gets me caught in tight situations
like when I run into you in town
I can't keep seeing you around
Because whenever I do, I get the urge to reach out and capture you
I try to keep my eyes away, but in those moments my heart has all the say
I really hope I don't see you today
Because when I do you'll look the other way
I wish I could get a leash, tie up my heart and never release it
I wish I could break myself, and then rebuild with all the pieces
I'd build a wall nearly twenty feet tall, just to keep me away from them all
All the ones i want to love, the ones that will leave me undone
I'll lock my heart inside a cage, and there it'll stay until I come of age
When im mature enough to love without obsessing
When im smart enough to love without *******

This heart is beating and it stops all the time
Any time I think of you I hit the flatline
But maybe someone else can restart the rhythm
Because I can't keep beating for you if you won't even listen

Fake it, fake it, fake it
Pretend it doesn't hurt
Just let her think you're dead
Let her cover you with dirt
Fake it, fake it, fake it
Don't let that pain get through
Lay your head upon her feet
Lie to yourself like you always do
Fake it, fake it, fake it
Don't get yourself too close
And know my friend that if you do
You'll be left with just her ghost

The truth that I refuse to reveal
I'd rather feel pain so at least I know I'm real
I'll take my place at the tips of your feet
Kick me while I'm down, don't let me fall asleep
Should I slip into a slumber, my hopes and dreams will take me under
I'll awake in rage and confusion
Convinced to believe in this delusion
Mad enough to attempt this solution
We both know this is not a resolution

The solitary sink where my soul can swim
The single state I can survive in
The remote reason for me to roam
The ringing reality I reap from home
The fleeting feeling of forgotten feasts
The frantic results of frivolous feats
AK93 Jan 2016
I either drink to much or think to much, no space in between
I neither control myself nor anybody else, can't do anything I mean
I'll kick you or kiss you, it all depends how you act
I'll love you or loathe you, those are the facts
If you tell me Monday that I won't see you tomorrow, I'll feel forgotten again
I'll sit til Sunday waiting for you, but you won't be there in the end
