Secrets seeping through my lips
Ill try to sew them shut.
Your hands are running down my legs
Ill try to keep them shut.

I'd give you my tortured heart
Place it in your hands to hold.
You always thought I was beautiful
You always held me,
Always yours to hold.

You just know,
you just feel it.
There is a click,
everything falls into place.
Everything makes sense.
Your future changes so abruptly.
You can't prepare for it.
You can't predict it.
You can't prevent it.
But suddenly,
everything has changed.
And you will never be the same.
A piece of you is gone,
you've given it to them.
To hold, to protect,
to remember.
But you are refilled with a piece of them.
To cherish, to love,
to remember.
Some day that part of you may break,
it may reject itself.
It may rip away from your body.
It will be painful, brutal,
ever so sudden.
But a little piece lingers on,
unable to escape,
trapped beneath your rib cage.
You may even forget it's there,
with time.
But one day,
you will feel a little nudge
and remember,
one who gave you a piece of their heart, once.
Time does not heal.
It's an anesthetic.
You will never forget.
Love never forgets.

My soul is split in two
between what I desire
and what I should do.
There's two demons on my shoulders
yelling in my ears,
playing tricks on my mind,
covering over my eyes,
and so I follow my heart.
It is the only thing I have,
not tainted.
And it may not always be right,
but I am never truly wrong.
I'm so tired
of fighting these demons.
I'm so tired
from fighting these demons.
O',
I'm so tired.
O', me.
Rest now,
O', my.
Heavy heart.

I dreamt of you last night
like so many hopeless nights before
your eyes pierce my soul
you read me
you know me
even though we're strangers now
we haven't embraced
outside of my mind
we're lovers, we're friends
the four years we spent intertwined
leaves a permanent indent
a tan line that will never fade
I still wear your ring
I still believe,
somehow,
we will find each other again.
But maybe...
only in a dream
can we ever be,
ever again.
Too much.
Too little.
Too far.
Too late.
We're only strangers now.

Your mind deceives you
You think you have won this battle
Yet you know not where my intentions lay
I know exactly what you want
Your longing deceives you
You think I want your love?
All you are,
Is the prettiest star.
You are not the brightest in my sky,
The sun.
Your eyes decieve you
Use me, use me
Because I'm using you too.
You are simply the quickest route
On my way to finding jealousy
Somewhere
On the road called hope
That the brightest star,
All source of heat and life,
For my eyes only.
My heart deceives me
But I will never stop searching
No matter how treacherous the path
No matter who I encounter in my travels
My sun will guide me
I believe he still shines for me.
You are just the prettiest star,
Of many.

The inate beauty of human nature
Lies within our unique differences
And our ability to love passionately
So
Never fit in
And
Never settle
Your beauty is too wonderful to waste.

your screams are running through the airwaves
and nothing has ever sounded more beautiful
i could never forget the way you looked that night
when our eyes locked, yet the moment fades

i was searching for an escape babe
yet sobriety’s never been more coveted  
your bittersweet melodies freed me on that night  
you overtook me, and i was saved.
