So for now
You'll try put me away
And I'll save you for a better day
When the clouds aren't so grey
And everything's okay
Finding our own way

Maybe I'll forget your name
Maybe things won't be the same
Maybe things won't be as insane
Maybe these clouds won't start to rain
Maybe our feelings won't get to feel pain
Maybe I'll get you out of my brain
Maybe my energy won't be drained

And I won't need to train myself
To look out for my health
To look out for ourselves
To look out for anyone else

Just remember you were the one that made this choice
Just remember that whatever is done I'll only ever keep to my own noise

But I never danced that way before
Doubt I'll ever find anything that could mean something more
But you opened up these different doors
Left me sore
Tore out my guts
Poured out my gore
Left me raw
Wondering what you are doing it for
Maybe you forgot what we were living for
You left me alone to fight this war
I'm left to what I own
There's still light
And there's still so much more to endure.
Its only getting brighter

And to revel in your mind
To think bout you all the time
I wonder if you could of been mine
I wonder what we could find
Let your thoughts unwind
And let our knots combine
Branches intertwine
Walking through these pines
These trees are talking wondering who
As we wander through to something new
Wonder what it was we thought we knew
These leaves are covered by this morning due
Gentle silence is dawning into
A pretty little day getting better
Lumber and wonder brought together
Drops of rain letting things get a little wetter
Ever since you met her
You had needed to get her  
You're sad you let her in
You're bad who could of known you'd sin
But you're glad you gave in
What you didn't mean
What you could have been
What you could of seen
What you would of deemed
Could of got so good and free
Struggling to breathe
Just lost in the breeze
Honesty
Trapped by sleeping restlessly
Guess it was meant to be
Guess I was meant to be me

Alone in my thoughts
Restless sleeping
At home I am caught
Best just leave things
My own mind I fought
Hopeless grieving
Sown my seeds I sought
Left to see what the night brings
Thrown my needs that I brought
This cresting light reveals wings
Just getting out of depression I guess
Just here to leave an impression from my chest
Just here to find out what's left
The parts of the heart that wouldn't give in
The strongest parts of living
The best parts of giving

I like sparks
They tend to light up the dark
They might not always get very far
But if its just who we are
Best to just be a part
Its best to just share your heart
And rest in the dark
Making marks in the bark
Letting it grow to be a part
Of who you are

You're branches may be getting tangled
Shedding weeds
Letting it get overgrown
Let it become more of what you own
Set a part to be a lone
Getting past who you've known
Yourself to be
And just who else you've grown to be
Where you've sown these seeds
What else you've learnt to see
You're health you've learnt to keep
This sore wealth you don't need to feed
And yourself you've burnt to in order breathe
Has turned to leaves
And twigs
Getting bigger
Setting a blaze
This blinding gaze
Lost in this haze
You've let yourself loose in this maze
And it's dark
But these sparks
Bring me further through
Brings me to something new
Something I didn't know
Colin Makgill Jul 2015
Time goes on for so long in the dark it overthrows me
My minds grows from the dark its the only one that knows me
I've gone so wrong in this song, I don't know how to show me
I need help
But, nah, I mean just help yourself
Keep acting careless of my mental health
I mean surely I have someone else
Surely there'd be someone else
Surely there'd be something else other than hell

I will stay with you
Until these feelings stop staying the same
Until these feelings grow more insane

Guess its just best if I back off now instead
Put these feelings to rest before they end up dead

I think too much about what I said
I sink too much into my own head
I'm overgrown
My weeds are getting tangled with my trees
I'm overthrown
It's brought me to my knees
It haunts me so I can't breathe
It taunts me so I can't see

Stop, don't make a sound
Drop down hit the ground
You can't imagine it
How much **** you're tangled up in
Mangled bits you're parts are stuck
I don't give a ****
But I've got to live through this muck
That I made
And it's all the same
Every god dam day
Found a way to stay so grey
Found a place to stay
Found a name who knows his way
Found a face who's built to play.

I see clear
Let's just have some fun
Shift my gear
Get something done
I can't steer
I'm so dumb
I'm not here
I'm numb.
