an ode to burning matches
My legs feel heavy My muscles stiff My eyes looking bleak My heart barely beating God I feel so tired Every day has been a cycle Walking in the same pace As everybody else in this world I need a break An adrenaline rush That makes me feel Life is worth living I need a change in pacing I have to get over this phase Gotta wake up and slap my face And get out of this stressful daze God I feel so burned out The embers in my youth Slowly dying out I may cease to function soon

Burned Out
don't you know i'm in love with you? your smile, your hair, your scent, your laugh, the way you squeal, but somehow you crush me in all the way possible, you say you don't like anyone, you talk about this guy, i'm always livin a lie, that somehow you may like me back, so i'll hitch my feelings at the dock, until you say it.
