Too Late to Care

Hated me living, ignored my cries, Held me close as I closed my eyes,
Loved me most when I died.

Liar’s lullaby

Closed my eyes, ignored the screams, life seems kinder in my dreams.

They loved me bright, they loved me wild, until my light was not their style.

Running From Death

I locked the doors, I shut them tight, I hid away, I killed the light.
But through the cracks, so thin, so wide, I heard him laugh, "You cannot hide."

The Hole in the Sky

A crack above, so thin, so wide, It calls, it pulls, it yawns inside.
The sky is wrong, the stars aren’t true—And now it’s reaching down for you.

I move, it moves, it follows tight, It shifts, it sways, just out of sight.
But when I left, it stayed behind, And in its place, I’m trapped inside

Not Alone

I hear the steps, the distant sound, Yet when I turn, there’s nothing found.
But something’s breathing, soft and slow—It knows my name. It lets me know.
