mia
it feels like only yesterday
that day two years ago
that you almost died
was that real
or a show
tell me please
you cross my mind
i wounder were you are
are you ok
or still broken
i need to know
but you are no were to be found
All our love is different now.
All our dreams are different now,
But all the stars are still the same.
We grow different flowers.
We listen to different songs,
But the sun still shines just as bright.
It's so wild, how we all went and changed overnight.
I woke up at midnight
and remembered the nights we would fall asleep beside each other.
Now I'm alone and in a different city.
Now I am accompanied by the moon.  

I knew change was bound to come,
but I didn't know how hard it would hit me.
I understand that this wasn't easy for you,
and I sympathize.
I was selfish to wish for you to stay,
and I apologize.
But now I know that just because you're miles away
doesn't mean we won't meet again sometime in spring.

Our summer smiles once glowed so bright,
I swore that the stars didn't stand a chance.
We were young and spinning, spinning
I swore that our souls couldn't sit still.

I recognize that roses and daisies
blossom differently.
I just wish someone would have told me that
before winter set in.

We're all on different paths now
We all have gone and moved away.
Who knows where we will be in a year from now.
It's just that these passed summers haven't felt the same.

despite my tear-filled trouble
i try to flash a smile
and hope that when i get there
i'll stay there for a while

regret and sorrow fill my veins
my hands begin to shake
i look inside my blood shot eyes
my heart begins to ache

i don't know who is in the mirror
it surely can't be me
soon the image starts the blur
i can no longer see

now the tears keep falling
and they won't ever quit
so i stare into a strangers eyes
before i give the hit

now my mirror is shattered
but it matches my heart
i look down at the broken glass
and see some kind of art

i crawled up into my bed
and held my ****** fist
and thought of everything i hate
i made a whole long list

now here i lay
alone and sad
not really knowing why i'm here

and before i sleep
i feel it fall
one last
single
tear

i lied awake
in bed all night
and scratched my skin
until daylight

if i could just
pry open my chest
til my soul was free
and i could rest

then i would finally be able to sleep
with my spirit afoot
with it's own two feet

leave my limp being
for the morning to find
and let my soul
run free with it's kind

Closing your eyes
While feeling your skin burn
You've come to despise
The lessons you can't learn

Silently sinking
Through an infinite space
Closing your eyes
As you come face to face

With the water that drowns you
Seeps through your hair
Open your eyes
And you breathe it like air

oh, but look at what grew

all because of the dirt
that they once threw
(our souls were meant
to bruise in galaxies too)
and the earth split open
ravenous and unforgiving
it swallowed us all whole
not one of us was left living
i was taken last
made to witness the fall
to say goodbye to the past
to say goodbye to them all
they all stared blankly
as they were taken
i heard no asking
there was not a scream
or a begging sentiment
and as they swam
to the second hell
before i could speak
cry or yell
i was swallowed as well
to the pit of reckoning
where everyone fell
