I should be touching the stars still
Because I have you, holding me in your arms
But I'm slowly falling again
About to hit the ocean's roaring surface
About to shatter, then sink
So hold me close, and never let go,
promise me
If I break, you'll piece me back together
Promise me
If I wander away, you'll follow me
You'll find me and bring me home
Promise me,
promise me,
promise me
You'll only ever tighten your grip
but don't smother me, no
Help me breathe
Just promise you won't give up on me
When I am falling, you'll catch me
promise me,
promise me,
oh, please, promise me
you won't leave me to fade away
alone.
i slept with scissors on my bed
just to see.
to wake up in a new cut.
just to see
if danger is a true concept
if a surprise is something real.

i did sleep with scissors on my bed
because i have a tendency to move around a lot;
just to see
if the blade would try to kiss my rib
to quiet me down;

just to see
if fire really burns;
just to see
if what runs inside my veins
hasn't disappeared yet.
what i saw
was that it is better to sleep with scissors
than to wake up by my own.
Something's gone horribly wrong
I'm not really sure what it is but Something's gone horribly wrong
I was okay just a few minutes ago but now
Something's gone horribly wrong
I feel empty and alone I don't know what happened but
Something's gone horribly wrong
I felt like jumping and running and laughing but
Something's gone horribly wrong
I don't understand what happened it's just that
Something's gone horribly wrong
Something's
Gone
Horribly
Wrong
A whirlwind of thoughts and all I can say is

**...
I'm sorry I couldn't help you,
I was trying to help myself.

I'm sorry I didn't see the cuts,
I was busy trying to stop the blood,

I'm sorry I didn't love you sooner,
I was trying to love myself.

I'm sorry I can't be there all the time,
I have to try hard to be there to eat dinner.

I'm sorry I didn't push you to eat more,
I was trying to choke down my lunch.

I'm sorry
So so sorry
He wants her
naked upon an altar
wreathed in roses
so he can worship
her in every way
a human man
can imagine.

I try to be happy
but you are nothing
I hate my brain
and everyone hates you
I just want it to shut up
you are stupid and worthless
I beg please stop
no I'm just telling you the truth
I just want to be okay
*no
The steam from my tea rises up into the sky,
Like an angel, small and white
I wish I could rise with it
Up into the grey sky
Never looking back to the cold dark ground
I'm sorry I couldn't help you
I'm sorry I feel like I failed you
I'm sorry I feel helpless
I'm sorry but you didn't tell me
I could have tried
I could have been there for you
I'm sorry
You can tell me anything
I will listen
You don't have to be afraid
I love you
Yeah
