you were the world to me
you were my light in the dark
i'm not so sure anymore
for i don't see much of a spark

others break others
with words to break their hearts
but you didn't use any
you just simply ignored me from the start

so here i am right now
lying in my bed awake
not sure how to sleep
don't know if i should wait

so i guess I'll just go
and you wouldn't even care
you wouldn't even know
well i think that's pretty fair

i'll just descend into the dark
where i belonged from the start
so now i'm letting
taking back my crooked heart

you still don't know
the words i wanted you to hear
so i'll just wait in the dark
just come and i'll whisper them to you very clear

i am still a shadow
but no longer yours
it's hard to let go
for you were my first

I am a sea of emotions
An angry set of waves
A whirlpool of sadness
A storm untamed for days

Under this peaceful still current
A riot happ'ning inside
Creating a hurricane of feelings
I was meant to hide

I tried to take in the emotions
I tried to swallow in the fear
The pain that surrounds me
Been burning all these years

So i set my hurricane free
And it destroys everything we had
Nothing left but despair
It was cruel, gruesome, bad

I tried to write my story
On a blank piece of paper
And so i began with
Once upon a time
Like in fairytales
But then i remember
That i'm no princess
And you're not my knight
And there'll never be
A happy ending for me
So i left it just like that
An unfinished sentence
On a blank piece of paper
Just like all the poems i wrote for you
Worthless

*ns

I am a shadow
You will never know
Haunting behind you
Never letting go

I am a shadow
Never letting go
Whispering you words
You will never know

I am a shadow
A prisoner in the dark
You helped me escape
You fixed my crooked heart

I am a shadow
I will never let you know
Who you are to me
Why i will never let go

*ns

A black hole eats me up
Swallowing me whole
Memories of me fading
Like i never existed at all

Every thin strip of me
Erased in this world
I am nothing now but a wanderer
With no heart and no soul

*ns

Color me in black and white
Hide me away from the night
Keep me in your arms, your arms like towers
Bury me in a bed of a million flowers.

Help me run away to someplace safe
To escape all these tears and fears away
Bury me in a bed of a million flowers
Take me to a place where we can call ours.

It's hard comparing you to art
But if you were a painting
You would be an abstract
A splash of colours
A spiral of emotions
A series of imagination
A whole new perspective
A picture no one could fathom
That's you
You are art

*ns
