I want to tell you
everything.

Everything there is
to know about me.

About how I ran from
the highest hill down
to feel the air push
me behind.

Once I bent down
before God
and asked Him to give me
death over happiness.

I used to believe that
dust was nothing but
dead memories
fallen away from us.

I will tell you everything.
If only you asked.

Because I want to.

I want to give you
a piece of my mind.
I want you to get
inside the mind that controls
this melancholy body.

I want you to get
inside the chambers of my heart
and wrest dark secrets
from its broken symphonies.

Fix it.

You?
I will tell you anything.

Life is meant to
go on

because

nothing lasts forever.

Life is meant to have
ups and downs

because

flatlines mean death.

I hope you
never find
someone
like me

Because then
you will find
another person you
can call
Perfect.

Sometimes listening to the ceiling fan
Will get me calm enough to see
That the sun didn't set any faster today.
But there are bruises I get quite frequently
From words strangers whisper to each other
Halfway across the country.
Their names are engraved in my lungs,
Their names will never be mine to see.

This grey jacket, so old and shabby
Ventures in my dreams to keep me delighted
This grey jacket, with its endless melody
Till the end of time will stay undefeated

No matter how ragged it has become
Time will not let it fade away
It may be looked upon as a shred by some
But that will not let me stop wearing it night and day
No, it will never fade away

There is no other place where I feel safe
No other place seems to give me salvation
There is no other place for which i crave
None that lets me avoid resignation

All I need is a key to unlock the door
It's a door like none has seen before
It's the door through which in your heart I can be
Just let me in, it's the only place I wish to be

The slightest thought of being in your heart
Is enough to put a smile back on my face
As if this was all I wanted from the start
As if there is nothing better than this place

All I need is a key to unlock the door
It's a door like none has seen before
It's the door through which in your heart I can be
I am ready to pay the price, you just have to trust me
