I will never understand
Those who choose to walk away from love
And I will never understand
Why love can't always be enough

Every day is still a struggle
As I try to hold my head and walk with grace
Knowing there is only purpose
And nothing about us was a mistake

Even though I have yet to find the lesson under all this pain
There is one thing I know for certain

I am not unchanged

You didn't leave me
The same way that you found me
So if I had to find a silver lining
I suppose I'd say that I became
A better me for loving you
So I know that

I am not unchanged

..I will never understand
Those who choose to walk away from love
And I will never understand
Why love can't always be enough

I stepped off the bus to the sobering cold
And realized this ******* is getting old
I reach and you run, I leave then you come
We have mastered the push and pull

I don't believe in giving up
Without a good fight
Falling for potential
Ruins me every time
I'm packing up my tears
And all of my false goodbyes
I'm throwin' em over my shoulder
And closing the door behind me cuz

Trying to get love from you baby
Is like trying to get blood from a stone
And I been watching myself going crazy
While my broken hearts still holding on

I made you want me

I even made you leave

But the one thing I just can't seem to do
Is make you bleed for me

It's 5 o'clock in the morning
And we still seem to be going
Round in circles
What good am I to you
If I can't carry the weight around for two

I heard that whistle blow
I'm punching my card
They tell me that friendship
Shouldn't be this hard

Well a warrior lives inside of me
But he's weary of the fight
I am afraid that it's quittin' time
I'm the first on the job
I'm the last one to leave
You still don't seem to appreciate me
I never thought I would say but it's
Quittin' time

Where's the pay off for the blood
The sweat and tears
I've been punished for your fears?
It's all So hurtful
But no tool that I have used
Has ever been strong enough
To see us through

I heard that whistle blow
I'm punching my card
Cuz buddy Friendship
Shouldn't be this hard

it kills me to say this
but i've forgotten what your voice sounds like

it's been twenty-one days
and i am alive
(sometimes)

i want to drown myself in drugs
i want to drown myself in Jesus
i want to drown myself in self-loathing
i want to drown myself in you

the thought of kissing you
brought me solace on
sleepless nights
now it's the source of
my worst nightmares

i tried making dreams my reality
and reality my dreams
but you haunt every crack and crevice
of my being
i can't dust the places i can't reach

i am not well.

Silence

Silence is not keeping quiet
because you have nothing
to say...

Silence is having a lot
to say but no desire
to speak...
I won't flash you a scowl, I'll flash you a smile.
It stings a lot worse and burns for a while.
When is suicide romanic?
Tragic?
Appalling?
These questions bear their wait
In the back of my spinning mind
Here I squeeze the grip of a butcher’s knife,
Not in the moonlight, but the ever-graying sky

When no ears can hear the reverberating echo
From your cries in the lies where you lost yourself so deeply
When no one is willing to think of you
For fear of ruining their day,
Then is it perfectly unselfish to at upon unendurable pain

In the blush of the night
And the rolling, roaring peal of thunder
The dark clouds express the torment
Far better than my pathetic cries for condolence
Yes, I’m cherishing my thoughtful misery
As if it were unalike any other
But I know it will end so quickly
If I’d just jump the roof, ****** the dagger

With the unbelievable, deafening, so blinding silence
I know that nothing can lance the quiet
With my towel in hand
My last plunge in soon to come
In the endless depths
Of sorrow’s irrevocable ocean
