It's hard to see the colour
In a world which is fading
The sky is becoming gloomier
The ocean has lost its way
The bright city lights no longer stand out to me
They seem as dim as they are fake
The smell makes it hard to see the colour too
It gets stronger by the day

It's hard to see the colour
When people ignore others in pain
Our dreams have been forgotten
Maybe our world has gone insane
Just prescribe another pill
And see if things really change

I find it hard to see the colour
In a world that is so negative
Our world is falling apart
Yet we all seem to stay the same

Scarlet like the veins that bled
I sought out the demons in my head
What I want will not come
Only slumber will let me succumb

It's funny how fast you think life goes
Until you realise how slow it really is
So much time of ours is wasted
Life expectancies should be changed
Not for how many years we were alive
But for how many we spent actually living them
I spend so many days feeling that I am not alive
Maybe that would make my life expectancy low
I don't fear death
I fear living
Because in time everything will go

Patch me together
With staples on skin
I'll be your puzzle
If you fix me
You win
Start with my heart
It's much easier to fix
My mind is a problem
It should not exist
Please don't let me leave
The hollow darkness awaits
I think if I fall one more time
I may never escape
Hold me together
With your arms around me
I'll love you forever
For as long as time can be

If I could lay upon a flowerbed
Until my mind expired
Maybe we could become connected
The soil would consume me
My body could bloom
With vibrant colours
Of blood reds
And shallow blues
Maybe these flowers could speak
Of what my life had become
It seems that people only want to know you once you are truly gone
