If you let me borrow your heart
I can stop the bleeding
And spray paint it with gold
Plant it in a hidden forest
And check impatiently as it grows
Watered with moonlight
Harvested in buckets of oblivion
Ladybugs will burrow in your ventricles
As wildflowers bloom from your withered arteries and veins
The tell tale heart of nothing in particular
Whos beating was gone long ago
And replaced by a song
You’ve been dying to sing

He said write like you’re real
and i laughed in his face
we are all a product of our environment
cant you see all the ******* you create is fake?
‘you are an easy girl to love’
i’m easier if you just forget about me too
serial disappointer for hire
woke up with monsters
painted on the ceiling
my sistine chapel
always shining darker than whats-his-name’s
red light digital analog
seen faintly through a blanket cocoon
sleep is for dreamers
mine replay memories
my head rests in the hollow of your collarbone
just as well as
your hand on the nape of my neck
i’m sorry we couldn’t be us
carry the moon in buckets
and wash my soul for tomorrow
perception is always lost between syllables

Take this photo of our most wanted dream
plot it out, let our greatest fear be seen
black and blue diary, empty your emotions
pain is too pretty, make yourself cause you're far from done
cheer up, oh beautiful eyes
you ask such questions of why and how
you're far too young to give up now
you are tied and tangled in your mind
the harder you try, the faster you rise
so separated, your mind over this matter
but you're mine, and only that matters
and you hold out
to miss the misery
crisscross your mouth; stitch it shut
your eyes watch it goodbye
your lips kiss it hello
cheer up bright eyes
you say that your extinct
cheer up bright eyes
you're worth more than you think
cheer up, don't cry
don't you know i need you here?
smile for me one more time
you can write out your feelings
but wipe away those tears
