Now tell me when did the butterflies leave your life
When did the rainbow leave your sky
Why did it feel like the ocean was edging up to close and wanted to swallow and drown you
When did the leafs leave no sound
So when did the dark swallow you moon
The only source of light you had
When did stars collide and messed up your sky
Tell me are you losing your mind
Let's keep it our little secret
Maybe it'll be alright

When was the last time you cracked a smile
Or made a joke?
Did you forget that laughter is the best medicine
Don't worry I've lost it too
Everything feels the same every memory fades
Over time people won't recognize you, the old you or maybe they didn't know you at all
Your scars fades, you mind fades even the piece of love you have suffocates and dies

Bones and smoke
Graves and stones
Your world were made of life
Now it will suffice

You say your problems don't matter cause some people have it worse
Its like saying you can't be happy cause some people have it better
It doesn't make sense
You'll destroy yourself in the end
Trying to cover them scars and them tears
I can see your eyes begging for a escape
You want someone to ask if you're okay but they don't want to, they're scared you'll spill the beans and they might not like what they're hearing
So talk to me baby
I wanna help
I wanna make you feel loved
That smile you're hiding it shines like stars
Those scars I have them too
Those self hate I had it too
The voices? I tried to silence them with a blade
It didn't work
Only the doctor promised me it will take work
And here I am
Trying to help you because I love you so much and I don't wanna see you go down the same road as me
So take my hand and let's walk to the light
YOU

YOU
Waking up without you each day is getting harder and harder
When I look in the mirror
I see your face
This empty feeling took your place,
And all the photos on the wall is just empty frames

You took a piece of me when you left this hallow world
You replaced me with a suicide note
You left without me
Now I feel numb to the bone
Those words don't mean a thing
I'm suffocating
You took my breath now I'm left her choking like a broken mess.

You're in my prayers but It feels like it goes unanswered, just a touch of your hand would be enough but I can't touch you unless I go to the graveyard and dig your coffin up.

Even when we don't speak and when I mean by 'we' I mean me
You don't see me but we're in the same group and I sit under the tree
The girl with band tee and the notebook
you sit opposite me like 10 feet
And I can't help but bite my pen extra hard when you laugh
And the way you look down when you blush
No one notices these little things
Well I hope they don't
And I don't want them to fall in love with you
Because I wouldn't stand a chance
The way you sit crossed leg on the grass even though you're so tall and the way you're obsessed with dinosaurs makes me wanna travel back in time and capture one for you even if it means I won't survive
The blue sweater you wear on a sunny day makes me wonder what you're trying to hide
Sometimes you look at me but I'm not sure what you see

— The End —
