Everything’s shaking
My mind can’t decide what to believe
My starry skies disappear behind your darkness
Time has passed and you remain
The memories, the pain
Consume me entirely
I see the smiles and the laughter and my face moves accordingly
I’m trying but they see right through me
They know
Where have I gone
I was right here and now
I’m right there with you
That’s all you wanted
My stars in your sky
My system blank
My lights all out

i’ve lost our footprints in the sand
lost to your tide

him
all the pain that i've felt
i can feel washing away
every word of his, it's like
a brand new day

my mind feels black
swallowed up in darkness
nothing can save me
i dont need saving
this is where i want to be
lost and isolated
alone
finally
away
from him
from them
left only with the words inside my head
and the blade inside my hand
and the blood on the ground
and the dried tears on my face
he cant hurt me here
he wont hurt me
these arents his words anymore
they're mine

while i was there, you never noticed
but now that i've left
you're hoping
that i'll be back running
into your arms crying
but that reality is left broken
after the choices that you made
mum, dad, it's all too late
i wanted things to change
in the end, you're all the same
i'm sorry that you're upset
but it was you who let it get
to the point where i finally left
you alone in that house
that i was forced to call home
i'm making things change
i'm finding my own way
no longer could i stay
and that's something you need to understand

an icy wind
choking the breath from my lungs
i remember the storm
and all it took
it stayed inside
locked away
a burning shadow
no time to waste
