Drifter
Bitter Senses May 2018
Poison rain and yet I stayed
Dreamed of days and times that were fantasy made,
All the signals
But that was me,
He loves me
But he loves them more you see

Drifter,
let's talk about the drifter
just a temporary fix
and you can always predict,
Drifter,
let's talk about the drifter
I can smell his next stop
I'm a quitter
I can hear the guns drop

Diamond promise that I made
Walking on glass,
what's the fuss?
I know that I had to pay
He was a drifter
But that I know
Maybe he loves me but he loves them more

Drifter,
Now I'm a drifter
just a temporary fix
Can you try to predict?
Drifter,
now I'm the drifter
I can see my next stop
I'm a winner
It's the past that I drop
um basically that was a song that I wrote one night but I still can't find the perfect melody for it...
It's pretty obvious but it's about that person who stays in your life as long as to make you need them and then they drift away
they jump into the next relationship the next adventure but you're just kinda there obsessing over the loss of something you actually never had
however in the end you drop the pass and you're the one in the strong position
you move on

Look in the Mirror
Bitter Senses Jul 2017
Look in the mirror
There's something alluring about imperfections
You find that little face of yours amusing
Madly looking at attributes that don't matter
While your disturbed mind suffers
restlessness, illusions and incoherence;

Look in the mirror
Every wrinkle, every little crease is an untold story
that could astonish
anyone who's willing to get close enough,
slide deep enough
Dedicate a millisecond to observe
the beauty behind the screen
Beauty non-volatile

Contradictions
Bitter Senses May 2017
Day in, day out...
I'm surrounded
But I'm all alone

Day in, day out...
I'm not blind
But the darkness is consuming me

Day in, day out...
I'm not deaf
But the melody's not playing

Day in, day out...
I used to dream,
Candy-coated dreams under a pink sky
But now I'm just a breathing nightmare

Day in, day out...
Why was the world's touch like a silk on my skin
But now its sharpness is cutting way too deep?

Day in, day out...
nah it's not depression but it's one of these nights when you feel like something's changed and that change is not particularly good.

Illumination
Bitter Senses May 2017
You don’t have to take a stand
Life can be so abstract,
You only have to give a hand
And have on people’s lives some impact,
Make your presence a source of illumination
Blossoming like flower
Even under the wrong impression,
You’re so close to reaching the line
Abandon anything that holds you back
This is your time to shine.
don't be afraid to love people, to help people.

The Bible of life
Bitter Senses May 2017
When you write the bible of your life
Remember that the ink is indelible,
Hundreds of threads stretching and crossing each other
The shape is locked and secure
In whose hands
Maybe I'll call it God and you'll call it nature,
But isn't that just a trite?
Just remember, oh please! remember,
Be careful when you cut that pillow open
And blow the feathers into every corner.
You can't collect them back
And life is just like that.
just me trying to remind myself that while mistakes are not unforgivable, they remain in the book of life and every little decision we make here, although  it doesn't have to define us, is capable of causing the butterfly effect. every little movement of ours changes everything

Soul Song
Bitter Senses Sep 2017
You spend days in your room to look perfect on the surface,
but your soul is dancing with the devil

rushing throught the dark night
darkness is your calmness
danger is your food

You've been so careless of who you love
steadily trusting the wrong people
exeggerating every unpleasant moment
and diving into artificial pleasures

Not a Tale of Woe
Bitter Senses Jul 2018
Can't tell you where my mind is
but I know where your heart lies

This is not a tale of woe
But on that day my soul grew lonely

Ghosts of the past are so **** real
Projections of the future make me wanna kneel

I abused my heart to make you feel wanted
Now I have to keep busy to forget how daunted
every inch of my soul is

I will play my role of an underdog
I'm trained to bring illusion
but when the smoke clears, I am right back where I was

Did you think it was just a game
If you were not here to stay
Why even show affection
when I'd had to deal with your rejection
everybody has dealt with rejection or unrequited love at some point
while it's not the worst in the world sometimes the pain feels like physical
while it's not the hardest in the world, sometimes your mind is stuck and it's so hard to move on

Burning Questions
Bitter Senses Sep 2018
Wake up in the middle of the night
wishing I could stay forever in the calmness of the stars

Those eyes, those eyes stare back
and they beg me to pretend
that I can survive another...

Day in, day out I can feel
Sanity is sleeping through my fingertips

Those eyes, those eyes stare back
searching for the girl who promised
everything is gonna be alright...

And I tried to show, I tried to show you
That no one will hold you, no one will hold you
Now winter's coming and the questions are burning

What do I know?
Where do I go?
Don't know this path
But I'm moving so fast
Do I regret?
Can I forget?
the promises I made myself
before I got that far a head....
just an internal conversation between who you are now and that person you used to be

Decisive Melody
Bitter Senses May 2017
I want to write you a song
Take a seat and listen to my own words.
This melody might be decisive,
And I could finally pay the price of
Not being brave enough
To turn around my ill-fated life.
The tenuous link between life and death
Every moment leading to that final breath.
Breath of relief or breath of surrender?
It doesn't matter cause I have to remember
It's time to work on my own wonder

Who decides
Bitter Senses Jan 2019
Sunday morning
the world is so silent
but I hear the struggle inside,

Sky is glowing
just get in the car
I don't care if they're looking for us,

Scared of running
but when was the last time
you felt like it's worth a try,

God is laughing
as we keep on planning the future
but who decides?

Who decides?
It's a twisted fantasy life but
who decides?

Who decides?
Is it only a day or infinity waiting for us?
who decides?
sometimes you feel trapped in your own life. There's always the question of "what would've happened if I chose to do that thing differently?"
you would probably be in a different situation, asking the same question but still,

can't help but wonder

Crafter
Bitter Senses Aug 2018
Why I have to walk this road again and again
Oh boy it's hard to put an end to this pretense,

I tripped so many times on my way to your heart
Before I realized that I couldn't get that far,

Oh, how can you be so naive my friends always scream
Just erase every image of this boy in your dream,

Don't worry, don't wrestle, just the thought of his name
It's enough to put you through a new wave of pain,

If he ain't gonna do it I will craft a kinder world
I'll get my hands ***** in the name of that love
um...I guess it's about when you had so much love to give  but that person just was emotionally unavailable and you ended up not knowing what to do with all that excess of feelings. so you just decided to build this new world of love where everybody who wanted a piece of that affection could just come and grab some.

Under The Snow
Bitter Senses Jan 2017
Six feet under the snow

I decided to bury my feelings,
“Are you really that cold?”
Oh, you’re so surprised with my revealings,
Heart in the pocket, a retired soul
Never been able to reach its goal,

Rising or failing, the angle’s so steep,
Six feet under the snow

They’re buried too deep.

A question
Bitter Senses Aug 2018
If all I've accomplished in my life
was to make a person smile once or twice
was it a life worth living?

— The End —
