Where are we?
I can't see
Can you hear me?
I can't breathe
In this world of make believe
You're in me
You're what I need
Think you know, baby?
You've scratched the surface
Time to dig deep
Take down my screen
See my world for real
Quick, before it's sealed
Take the bait and leave
You've got what you need
Now give me what I crave

I miss you
I miss the gleaming smile
And the way you shine
I miss our old life
Take me back
To all my old ways
Let me get lost
In my own gaze
You were always there
Caressed me when I hurt
How do I repay you?
I throw you in the dirt.
I'm sorry
I miss you
Please come back

As the noose of pain
begins to strangle her neck
the strings of her guitar
vibrate as they come to help

She's not sure what's happening.
It's all so **** confusing.
Her life flashed before her eyes
but this instrument helps her realize

She never understood
how to get herself out.
This music is good
it's the water in the drought

They'll never know
how much it means to her
to run plastic across steel
the rhythm of her earth

she can never explain
at least not fully
how it calms her soul
though they always wonder

to her it's that feeling
of eyes closing after long days
that beautiful feeling
of beings able to look past that gaze

it's like trying to say
the exact feeling of the way
you live and love and stay
alive and safe

don't you know
she can't tell you everything
it's not a to and fro
she's incapable of some things

this separation is difficult
don't you feel
how she just wants to scream and yell?
but instead, she, herself, steels

she shuts herself off
and begins to strum through
every note on the scale
just so she won't cry and wail

leave her be
please, just go
listen between the words you hear
look between the cracks you broke

Not everything is what it seems
but sometimes as you can see
everything that happens
is exactly what it seems to be

They are fading.
They were so beautiful.
I'm sadder than I should be.
They were so beautiful.
I should be so happy.
They were so beautiful.
They're almost gone completely.
They were so beautiful.
I'm really going to miss them.
They were so beautiful.
Their color is leaving.
They were so beautiful.
Although they're no longer bleeding.
They were so beautiful.
Feels like they are burning.
They were so beautiful.
Goodbye my old friends.
You were so beautiful.
I'll never forget
You were so beautiful
No matter how I try because
They were so beautiful.

I ran away
In spite of myself
I pushed back
From your selflessness

You were so good for me
I couldn't bring myself to believe
I guess I just didn't see
The good in you or the love in me

I'm left to wonder
What could have been
I'll continue reading over
I'll continue to listen

I'll remember you
Forever and always
I gave you me
Now I've gone out in a blaze

I'll fizzle out
Like a firecracker
I'll drizzle down
And burn the earth

You're there watching
Waiting for me to come back
I'll promise you this
I'm well on my way

Be patient, please
I'm trying, I swear
Soon I'll be
Nowhere but right there

Please let my words ring true
please let me say I’m fighting through
please understand my words to you
please let my message be used

I don’t know where I am
I’m not sure where I stand
I’m living on the edge
but I want your safety pledge

I need to know
what you’ll do.
How do I get it through to you?
Why won’t you try, too?

You’re the only reason I’m alive.
You’re the only star in my sky
but I’m afraid it’s all just lies.
What have I lost from my eyes?

You said to write so now I’m writing.
You said it’ll help but now I’m dying.
I’m so confused by this world
I’ve built for myself

I’ve strayed so far away
from the path I intended to stay.
I know you said you wouldn’t forget
but please don’t let me, my decision, regret.

Oh, my love
you just need a hug
you wouldn't hurt a bug
I'm sorry, so sorry, love

it's time to live life
you deserve a happy light
a sun that makes your day bright
don't worry, I'll be alright

I'm so proud of you
you know that, right?
I love your smile
it's always so bright

Your laugh makes me laugh
your tears make me cry
I want-no, need you to go
I won't be left behind

We'll keep in touch
you need this rush
Your happiness is at risk
You gotta make the jump

You won't blow this
Please, stand your ground
I know you want this
don't lose your nerve now

You want this so bad
I know you need it
I don't want you to be sad
Don't you dare leave it

Your beauty will shine
Your face will glow
your smile will radiate
your talent, you'll know

I love you so much
I believe in you
You're gonna make this
You're gonna make you.
