all this prettiness
wasted on me

all this happiness
i pay a lethal fee

all this laughter
i haven’t heard a peep

i only feel it’s real
when i am asleep

no longer do i dream
no longer am i queen

and so i scream to seem
as if i feel i’m real

as if i know i know
as if the deal is sealed

but the silence sings its tune
as i beg, cry at the moon

please, please
what do i do?

is there more to discover?
has it all ran away?
gone towards another?

we can build again

a town of stone and brick
a home of truth and love

a city where they smile
a place where you belong

in a land far, far, away
where the trees laugh
with you

the wind holds us up
the sun gives warm hugs
the moon sings from her lungs

the ocean a second home
you have never been alone

a pixie born from nothing
but still laughing

a call from nowhere
is it doubt or faith?
can we be free?

the love is everywhere
you crazy ******
what else is there?
but everything

a friend if you can see
it hides
if you stay blind

there is only ever just that
you crazy ******

you love it
ah the goosebumps
drink your poison

not much longer now
just around the corner

don’t spoil it
it’s waiting patiently
soon you’ll see

life
as it was meant to be
a spirit who is free

you’ll see
Let me know what you think!

I have misplaced myself
changing every ******* second
losing everything
marbles are everywhere
I have lost my marbles
I have misplaced myself

hiding away on the top shelf
dust is collecting
where do i go?
nobody knows
i have misplaced myself

things i wanna say
hiding away
things i wanna do
deep deep down
a girl
stuck inside a girl

i have misplaced myself
i have misplaced myself

dude
you showed the world your scars
and made my pain feel understood
with your words gracefully
better than I ever could

run
i run
look around
what happened
to this town

dead smiles
deadly frowns
human spirit
broken down

not for me
i’d like
to be free

running
running
to what
i don’t know

to where i stand now
to family that’s found

today i am a square
predictable, straight, and fair
my edges wind and curve
to spite the minds unnerve

i feel the greatest depths
i walk along the fence
but couldn’t see a sign
the dark was far too bright

today i’ve lost my curls
no longer is there a girl
sworn to see what’s true
that was before i met you

sit here in this cold dark room
too easy to get lost in you
suddenly there comes a light
will i be free this time?
Let me know what you think!

she’s freer than a butterfly
sweeter than a girls behind
stronger than the oceans waves
a lucky winner in this game
a game that’s long been played
a secret which she holds so close
a secret which she stays exposed

singing in the sunshine
dancing in the rain
in this world
she fears no pain
her cup it overflows with life
others collect and count their strife
fell down that hole once before
but she has learned to stay no more

a mother full of endless fun
a goddess from another sun
from those demons she won’t run
face them, shoot them, with her gun
she smiles when the darkness comes
she knows that she’s already won
no time for cowards, avail their powers
she knows the secret
no rain, no flowers
This is for all the gorgeous women out there KEEP FIGHTING
