We’ll end up old broke and alone.
No honey to call our own,
nobody to guide us home.
When we forget all the memories,
when we forget all the could have be beens and have done’s
nothing to tie us down to this world anymore.
Nothing oh nothing
It’ll all be gone, there's no forever.
Theres only now and i can’t stand it
I want to leave
I want to be free
But looking back I see,
I was just running from the possibility of you and me, of us.
You’ll always be my happily ever after,
My mindless chatter endearing and sweet.
I was just too icy
and cold to see it then.
I see it now
//forgive me?\\

Talking to you also
makes me feel so small
Yet you're the only one I want to talk to
because you are the only one
that can keep me up at 3 AM
you're the only one
that gives my brain electric shocks
And just your voice
makes my heart palpitate.
That's why I get so frustrated
And why I fall apart when you're cold
Your icy words cut deeper than you know
That's why I'm crying in the bathroom
Pathetic and alone
With a bottle of GreyGoose and a cigarette
My reflection distorted and I can't tell
Is the powder on my nose Coke or Salt?
I'll admit that I'm lonely,
But I hate admitting it's because of you
//why do I do this to myself?\\

Shi Em
you stare at me,
as if i'm a scorching cup of coffee,
that you just can't stand to hold
but you still kept me anyways.

I want to see your face
One last time
Before I, say goodbye
Once I leave,
I'm gone forever
And once I'm gone,
You'll see me never
Ever again.

So enjoy this while it lasts
This is hard, but it'll pass.
You're lonely.
But you're better alone,
Than in bad company.
//trust me on this\\

Forgotten?
Is what I'll be tomorrow
A faded memory in the back of your mind
A distant echo in your dreams
Too far away
Never here to stay
We knew it from the start
Every second passed is a missed opportunity
The things we never did
An never dared to say
We missed our window
We missed our chance
The door was wide open
But I let you in
Gave you the world
Made you my world
And you let me go.
//you did\\

Sometimes
I just need a little space
to get clarity
Sometimes
I just need a little room to breathe
Cause haven't you noticed
I get a little
Claustrophobic
And the room caves in on me
Please, oh please
Don't be offended
That I need a little break
It's not you, it's me
I swear
//i take comfort in my solitude\\
