We might be moving
Way too fast
And I think I'm
Okay with that
I know I'll regret my choice
When we come screeching
to a halt
I never wore a seatbelt
Around you
And flying through the windshield
Might be just what I need
To bring me back
To reality

{NR}

Please please I need you here
if not to hold me
then to remind me
that I'm not the only one left
when the sun goes down
that I can still survive
I can beat my own mind
I'm not alone
I've got my soul
and no one can rip that out of me
it's who I am and it is mine
all that matters is I stay true to who
I want to be
and not revert to the old me
I can't fade back into that sad
depressive state
I can't take the constant thoughts
nagging me they're always
too much or not enough
and I swore that I would stay here
and push on for this empty cause
we're all plagued with
and I know that I'm not perfect
sometimes I almost turn back
but if you grab me by the wrist
tell me "darling you're better than this"
I promise I will try

{NR}

That dark
Behind my eyes
Reminds me of the night
When my demons come
They don't need to hide
I cannot find rescue
They muffle my screams
Do you know who I am anymore
I fear they've changed me so
I can't remember my own name
Or what it signifies
Please
Please
I
I need you by my side

{NR}

I took her breath away
not anticipating the consequences,
now she's grasping for air
and we're both helpless.
Love is senseless.
We share the same breathlessness.
What a lovely sentiment.
But too much of a good thing anywhere
can be suffocating,
and your lungs are failing.
So don't fall for me darling,

I'll only let you drown.

[ARH]

I grew up knowing what my future held
My dreams crushed by aspirations
I didn't care.
But why
It seems
On the eleventh hour
Do I forget everything.
I don't know what I want anymore.
Please if it's one thing
Don't follow the crowd.
That's it.
Now I walk in a room full of forgotten friends
What happened in these past years?
Just
Don't let
Life slip through
My fingers.

I prefer you over sleep
Your dark brown eyes engulf me
Keep talking
Drowned out my enemy's
I prefer sad faces
Over bright smiles
I'm attracted to broken people
So why can't I love myself?
Drape your black hair over my pillow again
Make these thoughts go away
I prefer you over sleep
I prefer music over nicotine

These days I can't look at the sunset
because the beauty reminds me of you
and how you were so perfect
then you were gone
I've hoped for a while that I was wrong
that you were just stepping out for fresh air
but I guess you wanted to run
you couldn't do that with me
I suppose I was your prison,
keeping you locked up and away
from the flowers
that I tried to bring to you
but they always ended up dying
And you never were happy
You belong with life
And I'm barely alive
