I'm me
You're you
We're all different
It doesn't matter
We love
We hate
We're human

Wishes don’t come true
And I thought you knew that
Reality is harsh
And I want you to know that
Your journey will be harsh
And you will know that
Keep traveling on that path
Because you’re too far
To turn back

Surprise, Surprise
I might just die
It seems some of my friends
Have crossed the line

Our creation was our benefit
Now it will be our downfall
Because we didn't end it

The trees are very nice to me
They block the sun and give me leaves
They let me climb on their limbs
So I can be free

The trees are pretty shy like me
They don’t like others among other things
They shy away from others like them
Sometimes they get along in the end

The trees have nice crowns like me
Mine is a mess but theirs is so pretty
I tell them all the time
They don’t like to share designs

They shy away from each other
And keep their own crowns
Crown shyness, I say
As I feel the same

I laugh
Because it's funny
No, it isn't
Because I'm bleeding

So crisp are your lies
For they are easily broken
You try to avoid the demise
For what you have stolen

Mirror Mirror
Tell me why
This reflection
Isn’t mine

I have a pain in my legs, and my right foot
I can't tell if it's from running,
being tense all the time,
or if it's growing pains

I have a sore throat
It hurts to swallow
You know, it's summer
But I think I'm catching a cold

I have a bruise on my head
A patch of hair missing the size of the nickle
I think it's from when I (accidentally)
Ran headfirst into a wall

I have an ache in my heart
A hole in my brain
I can't tell if it's from thinking too much
Or feeling too much
It's all the same

To be a tree
I would be tall and mighty
I would provide food for the beings of nature:
The insects, the birds, the rodents, the fungi
I would provide them shelter:
A home for families of squirrels, birds, and owls
And when my leaves would fall in the cold
I would give the insects and the rodents shelter,
A place to rest in the leaf litter
And I will give the soil nutrients

Kids would try to climb my branches
High enough to reach the sky
Though I wouldn't let them
Maybe one day
I will be met with someone who's soul is with nature
Her heart would be full of
Forests, plains and meadows, and mountains
She would treat me like a being,
Embrace me and climb to the sky
And when the wind blows through my leaves
I would whisper to her
The tales of the past,
Of the beginnings of Earth

I feel so heavy on this road
The way you hold me so
Just put me on my feet
So you shall be free

The moon is full tonight
It shines brighter than the street lamps
Brighter than the stars
However, the light in you
Was brighter

Flowers have eyes
And they blink up at me
The trees have eyes
So many it's scary
The animals have eyes
More than just two
We have eyes
More than just a few

I want to tell a story
But I don't know what to say
I'm feeling inspired
But not every day

Life is like a coloring book
You may color outside the lines
You may make mistakes;
You may use colors
You may feel happy;
You may use black and gray
You may feel sad;
You may not feel like coloring
You may not feel like anything;
You may hurt your wrists
You may experience troubles and pains;
You would finish the page
And life will feel complete

Wishing on dandelions
Watch their seeds fly up to heaven

Until the day breaks
The moon will rise and
End with the crickets

I pick a flower
And it screams
It pierces my ears
And makes them bleed

I’m wondering in the dark
Trying to find the light
Stuck in the lost
Where there’s no sky
Not a glimmer of hope
On where to find myself

I look to the future
And there I see a picture
It might be all in my head
But there's only death

Your face
Your eyes
I think about all the time

The moment
The picture
I keep replaying it in the future

I'm awake
I can't sleep
It feels like a dream

But I know it's not
I can't remember
They're blurring memories

Even if we choose one path
Of a few, it will still end the same
I would wake up, and you wouldn’t be there
And you wouldn’t wake up at all
Because it will all end the same
No matter what path we take

Open your mouth, open your mouth
Say something out loud
Speak for others to hear you
But don’t be too quiet

Open your mouth, open your mouth
Speak, speak, speak
My mouth will not move
You’ll have to do it for me

Open your mouth, open your mouth
Stop, stop, stop
I’m too quiet
And I fear
The people in the crowd

I Found Myself
Deep In the woods behind the house
I found me
Lost in space because of all the gravity
I found I
Bleeding on the floor about to die

I soar through the sky
Through the clouds and the trees
I lay on the ground
And get stung by the bees
I smell the flowers
And can't help but sneeze
I use charcoal to read the graves
But I can't find your name

People are driving me crazy
The human race is insane
Everything’s looking hazy
I will never be the same

Over the end
Flicking a switch
Forgetting all emotions

Who can I be
Everyone hates me
They try to be friends
But I don’t trust them

Instruments
They lay in cases
People get them out
And start to play

They're used to make such a beautiful melody

Instruments
I don't like them
The only sound they make
Is white noise

Left, right
Up, down
We're on a mission
To save the crown

Through the woods
Down the path
Creatures in the dark
We pass

Rain, it comes on down
it washes the ground
it leaves behind an earthy smell
and soothing sounds

Nothing will come from this
You say on our bed
Nothing will come from this
I repeat to your head

Dreams mean nothing to me
You say at the table
Dreams mean nothing to me
I repeat as I am able

We’ll all be nothing
You say as we stargaze
We’ll all be nothing
I repeat in a daze

You cover my face
You cover my eyes
You filter my mouth
Now all I tell are lies

Your hypocrisy is no surprise
you choose to close your mind
than open your eyes

Tick tock
Goes the clock
Time is running out
...
Tick tock
The clock has stopped
Your time has run out

When you walk or move
Everyone and everything moves along
Everything but the sky
Is it even real?

You didn't think it through,
Did you?
Now you're lost,
Because you don't know what to do

Like knives cutting skin
Bullets digging in
Happiness flowing out
Grief flowing in
Lost in their own world
Hurdling down lower
Past the positive
To the negative
They forgot how to live

Blood is red
And red stains
Like the red slits
On my wrists
That leak red
in the drain
And that leak
pain

Practice makes perfect
Is what they say
But what if I'm not perfect
And mess up everyday

I look up at the ceiling
Pondering what I'm feeling
I want to take a picture
I want to play a song
I want to paint a picture
I want to dance along
But I look back to the ground
And I'm always somewhere else

Drowning
No Breath
Push Away
Depressed

Broken
Shattered
Torn
Tattered

I love you so much
It hurts
Knowing that it'll never be true
'Cause I never knew how to love

I've had months
But the tears are still there
You've been gone for a while
But I still expect you to be here

I cry and cry
But it's behind my eyes

The moon is outside my window
Telling me to go to sleep
I look for you among the stars
But I can't find you

Can I be alive again
She asked her reflection
Can I go to heaven
She asked the one considered golden
Can I move on
She asked again
And she kept asking questions

I’m not happy
I’m not sad
I’m still alive
But I feel dead

My stomach feels sick
I feel like I’m ill
In my throat I feel ******
Where are my pills
Getting jabbed by sticks
I’m not out for the ****

She was chosen
"save the world,"
they told her
but she couldn't

There is no land
beneath my feet
I'm sinking
in the ocean deep
