Featherlight suffocation Leaden words weigh tongues down Free range cage Weary heart o mine Sagging against restraints Drowning Burning edges I wish to tell you these words Things you've already heard Pressed into my vinly tongue Scream the same three songs 1. I'm fine 2. We're fine 3. Our relationship is fine Scalded skin Boiling showers To soak the worries away To thaw out this anxiety The insecurities Its just me Not everything seems As polished as it was Love still graces this heart Love is a fear Fear of fading Falling out Washing away A castle crumbled by surf Grains slipped Mottled rib cages Curled under a blanket A sembalance of warmth creeping in Mock comfort Shells rattled by your breath Inhale Exhale Turned over in these fragile hands Committed to memory As if it would be the last Another sunrise Surprise Another relief A sight to hold dear Throughout this day Just inside the preferial Of this skull Just in my head My head My head This fear that you'll disappear Vibrancy leeched out of this shell Skin crisping Withered What if You were Never here Just in my head? The Last letter typed Given form To nightmares at the prow How is it So easy to breathe now

Bittersweet disillusionment
Featherlight suffocation Leaden words weigh tongues down Free range cage Weary heart o mine Sagging against restraints Drowning Burning edges I wish to tell you these words Things you've already heard Pressed into my vinly tongue Scream the same three songs 1. I'm fine 2. We're fine 3. Our relationship is fine Scalded skin Boiling showers To soak the worries away To thaw out this anxiety The insecurities Its just me Not everything seems As polished as it was Love still graces this heart Love is a fear Fear of fading Falling out Washing away A castle crumbled by surf Grains slipped Mottled rib cages Curled under a blanket A sembalance of warmth creeping in Mock comfort Shells rattled by your breath Inhale Exhale Turned over in these fragile hands Committed to memory As if it would be the last Another sunrise Surprise Another relief A sight to hold dear Throughout this day Just inside the preferial Of this skull Just in my head My head My head This fear that you'll disappear Vibrancy leeched out of this shell Skin crisping Withered What if You were Never here Just in my head? The Last letter typed Given form To nightmares at the prow How is it So easy to breathe now
