I've been searching for years, tears stain my cheeks.

For a feeling I could finally keep, they all come crashing like waves.

And than they leave me shaken, sinking into my grave.

I wish I could find love, but I'm terrified.

Not of love itself, but being loved in return.

Please don't leave me behind to burn, break me if you need to.

Wake me when the sunrises, daybreak shining beautiful yellow hues.

Much prettier than I'll ever be.

I wish I had your supermodel look, I guess genetics ****** me.

The ashes still hurt, the sobs that trickled out of your mouth.

Put the pistol between your eyes, and shot you dead.

But it was only in my head.

Only in my head, the place where I'll never rest.

I watched him confess, throwing glass at her spine.

This is why I'm not normal, a generation soaked with the blood of madness.

And I feel it consuming me, I feel it consuming me.

It's too late, I ate your bait, slipping right into your demons trap.

I sometimes wish you could've fried inside that house,
while I watched the flames eat you alive.

I'm hearing voices, god maybe I am really going insane.

Just like my father, my mother, the slaughter you left behind.

In my mind, running like rabid dogs.

What are the odds that I found you here, broken and bare, just like
someone I know.

The grass ****** my toes, time is frozen.

Your body laying beside me, finger pressed against the trigger.

I promise officer, it was all just a dream.
