Close the window on negativity you don't need to hear it

Shut the blinds to the outside world you don't need the distraction.

Lock the door from toxic people the closer they are, the more they hurt you.

Crawl into the isolated bed you have made
It's the only peace you have.

Dad is not doing okay
Mom hasn't awnserd the phone in a few days
Girlfriend throwing a fit not getting her way
Yet the outside world still turns
Putting ashes in fancy urns
And every day we still dont learn
To love eachother don't wait for the past
Live everyday like it's our last
Life's a play and your gone in a flash...

I fell in love with the idea of love.
That the girl will save the boy from himself
That the powerful play goes on
And I was lucky enough to play a verse
That love chose me to portray it's injustice
But
It's gone.
The jar is empty.
No love was given
The lights of the stage never turned on
The chairs were dusty and folded
Not a soul in sight.
No star role on the main stage
But
An outcast
A nobody.
The story where no love was found.

I gave you my heart
You kept it from the start
Wishing you would stay

Love is blind
Feelings combine
Now all i feel is hate

Gravity pulls my depression
Mentality going into recession
Everything we had went astray

Darkness creeps
Yet I weep
For loneliness seems to stay.

She looked at me and spoke with vicious words
"Back to the hole I found you in,
into that mask you hate
The life you couldnt bare
This will always be your fate
i want you to wear that mask
Till you love it!
Till you die in it.
You are unfit to look at me.
You are unfit to love me."
And just like that,  
the mask fit...
Like I had never...
Taken...
It...
Off.

In the west
There's a chapel
Where a god sings
Through the stained glass
And the colors dance
In front of your eyes.
You can hear the lies
Through the warm pews
And all the faint cries..
Ive been trying new ways
to summon the devil.
To bring me what I want
because god has silenced my cries
And turned a deaf ear....

I took a trip to the unknown
Now the darkness has a hold on me
I'm starting to feel it in my bones
No longer is it a mystery
Hold me closer darkness
For now I see
Love is blinded
All it causes is misery
