the girl sitting next to the door
frequently
tapping her feet on the floor
when you look her in the eyes
she'll hide her face and look away
what would you say if you'd recognize
her body's just made of anxiety

my eyes are dancing
over the glittering sea
the wind is glancing
the sparkling beach
sand in my eyes
salt in my hair
mountains so high
a whistling in the air
for perfection it strives
and i think
that must be life
Alaska Aug 2016
I tremble as I open my eyes,
Is this reality or is it just a dream,
Am I even alive?

My head hurts,
I wanna scream,
But I can't put my thoughts into words
When I open my mouth,
There's nothing but silence.

No words to come out,
I have nothing to say.
Oh I have so much to say.

But all those thoughts,
Will never become words.
They belong to me,
They'll stay in mind,
For all eternity.

Oh and all those tears she cried were hers to keep,
The pain she felt was hers to keep,
The thoughts in her mind were hers to keep.

But two people can't keep a secret,
Unless one of them is dead.
She wasn't the weakest,
But the voices in her head
Weren't ever satisfied.

She didn't trust anyone,
She lost all her pride.
Everybody must hate her,
That's what the voices convinced her to think.

Another pill, another drink,
Girl, if you go on like this,
You won't live that much longer.

And even though you won't believe this,
You will be missed.

Come on, you're so much stronger.

All those open windows but no fresh air,
all those open doors but nowhere to go,
all those open books but no stories to read,
all those songs but nothing to listen to,
all those people but nobody to talk to,
all those things but nothing to do.

What would you do,
if you got the message today,
that your life's gonna be over in May?

Would you spend your time waiting for the end,
or rather try to fulfill all those dreams,
you thought you had enough time to do in the future?

If you had the chance to go anywhere,
would you go somewhere or to somebody?
If you could choose,
would you stay alone or in company?

Don't ever take all those things for granted,
did you ever think about what happens after all this ends?

If the dreamer dies,
what happens to the dream?

live your dreams
they say
i can't
i say
they're asking why
i only live my fears
i reply
living my dreams
is only one thing
i almost gave up on
after years

I still remember
the look in your eyes
when I was standing
in front of the building
crying and shaking
you came down the stairs
asking what happened
you opened the door
not letting me out of your view
together we climbed the stairs
and when we were inside
i saw that you cried
in your room
when you were alone
and suddenly i knew
nobody's perfect
