darkness engulfs the heart that grows stale but you can't pretend to hide it
what you welcome will stay with you and we can all see it
don't claim to own what you broke and sell what you lost
don't hold it so close
where it can cut us all

you don't need other people.
i repeat, again and again to myself
so desperately i have to wonder who i'm trying to convince

it's not nice to be seen as a freak
but it really is nice to be seen

often i feel like a doll with mismatched parts
a vile heart and soft eyes
it's why i seek out the people
i wouldn't want to be like
i either remain desolate
or end up getting worse

for the first time i know what i want
for the first time i know what i need

i want strawberries and sunshine
i want to hold your hand and smile
and to hug you tight if that's alright
just to find out what you like
to see what you feel, what you want

need to know if we're really under the same sky
or if it's another lie

stop this car, i'm going to puke
and your lies hit my heart like a nuke
i swear everything's gone purple
yet whenever you're mentioned (even in my journal)
my heart still goes "boop"

this ringing in my ears
as the evening clears
your betrayal, worse than the spears
we will go our own ways

"don't believe anything is as it appears"
i repeat your words, ignore my tears
i roll down the street and everything disappears
i get in role, telling myself no one stays.

the moon feeds on my tears
every night as it appears
i fear it gets stronger
the moon feeds on my tears

the sun feeds on my fears
every day i can barely look
as it comes up and shines brighter
the sun feeds on my fears

the stars are my friends
they help me hide every sunrise
to hide from the merciless sun
the stars are my friends

every constellation chases me
they chase me as i hop between the planets
i cannot get away from mercury
mercury and how it hurts me

no one helps me
the stars laugh at my misery
the moon, the sun and the stars
i'm afraid i'll disappear tonight
