Hold your breath,
And maybe, just maybe,
Then you'll achieve weightlessness

But not without turning blue
And falling to your doom

Consequences are a *****
When all you want to do
Is sprout wings
And take flight
In that vast blue sky
And spiral down
As day, fades into black night

I say this because it rings true,
No stranger to me than to you,
Because you can try to fly,
But one thing remains the same,
You will always hit the ground,
A little less happy than when you spread,
Those broken wings.

Today, you told me,
That I'm just like my mother.
Well maybe I am,

One difference though,
I'm not her.

So quit telling me I'm just like my creator,
Because that's all she did,
She didn't raise me,
That was all your doing,
So if you don't like how I turned out,
Go figure out what you did wrong.

Sunshine, I feel the pain in your eyes as you look in to mine,
as if torn as to whether to gaze deeper, or look away,
I knew this day would come, I always knew I wasn't good enough,

Now let me ask you,
whats so good about picking up the pieces,
when your never gonna forget anyway?

What if I'd rather leave them to fade into distant memory,
and move on like its all okay,
but deep inside I'll know I never recovered,
because babydoll,
I couldnt forget you,
not even if I wanted to,
theres a scar on my heart in the shape of your name,
and incase you didn't know,
scars don't fade,

"hold my heart,
its beating for you anyway"

None of the colors can reach the darkness of my mind,
and none of this, will ever change with time,
because, babe, I can't forget you,
theres a hole in my heart in the shape of the love you provided,
and then let slip away,

"Whats so good about, pickin up the pieces?
What if we don't even want to?"
had the song 'Caraphernelia' on. Also by Pierce The Veil
for those of you who don't know, caraphernelia by definition, is a heartbroken disease in which someone leaves you but leaves all their things behind, making it impossible to forget.

Everything RED.

Red.
Like the blood flowing,
through my beaten,
yet still beating heart,

Yes, I'm alive,
half way to the bliss of death,
but alive,
you need a martyr, I'll be one,

Pray to the gods,
in seek of forgiveness,
for the sins, that in truth, will never be forgiven,
and the lies, that in truth, will never be forgotten,

Now,
I don't wanna feel a thing anymore,
I'm sick and tired of this game we all play,
thinking it'll get better,

Oh you better ******* guess again,

Terror begins,
in a wrist that won't bleed,
because matter of the fact is,
you've already died,
just on the inside,

Everything RED.

Oh god, seeing spots,
getting shakey are we?
maybe its time you're laid down to be set free,
because you haven't got a say anyway,

So dare me to jump off this Jersey Bridge,

Think it over,
and you'll realize,
oversleeping is no way to live,
and dying is a true gift,

So close your eyes, and rest in peace.
Based off King For A Day by Pierce The Veil. I was listening to it on repeat, and this is what it produced.

I, I just can't seem to understand,
why the sun sets, just to come up again,
or why people will lie,
and say they're a friend,
only to betray and hate you again,

Why can't we just lie in darkness,
never having to be seen again,
not worrying about who you see,
or what they think,
why not just lay lifes cold ways to rest,
not having to worry about whose best,
just living life, with nothing but bliss,

Because a world with no drama is what I seek,
a world where you can do what you want,
and not hear about it in a week,
or less..
depending on how fast people talk,
spreading word like wild fire,
because gossip is apparently human nature,

Which is why I've lost all faith in humanity,
because nothing gets better,
it only gets spread around and worsened
with useless lies and nonsense,
that don't make nothing better,
just worse,
because nothing gets better,
I hope this repitition is making the message clearer,
cause I swear to you, its true,
nothing gets better,

Don't believe me?
just look around,
*look in yourself.
noo idea. enjoy.

These scars,
hidden behind bracelets,
to keep me ashamed.

But I don't need the scars for that.

All I need to stay ashamed,
is my own two eyes,
and a mirror to look in,

For eyes don't lie like people can.

You ask me whats wrong,
well how the **** should I know?
maybe, just maybe,
its the overflowing abyss of emotion that I can never show,

You've taken all of my outlets,
you even walk me to the busstop,
like I'm four,
but hey, how would you know?
I'm talking about all the emotions I don't show,
because I don't want you to know,
because you'll think I'm screaming for attention,
no, thats the last thing I want,

No more love, no more affection,
because you give me too much,
only to rob me of what I've got left
when you scream at me until I cry,
for one little mistake,

I tell you I'm sorry,
but what difference does it make,
none,
because the cycle goes on,
and I don't know how much more I can take,
how many more times can you stab me in the heart,
before it finally breaks?
how many more times can you open my wounds,
with your words as the blade?
