I hope you can see me
it happened just as you wished it to
but you weren't the one to free me
even if you thought you saw it through
you never let the breeze graze my skin
my savior? a thief making away with the mirror
maybe if I knew sooner how little it hurt to sin
but alas you couldn't too overcome with terror
and you soaked in your pond of dyes while he had a grin
and as you faded into the colors I held you
your treachery was not without meaning
I knew you saw me too
I couldn't let you feel me
wasn't that all you wanted to tell shoo?
we'll draw again one day on the same canvas
none of our lights in surplus
You weren't another animal in the shed
you loved even before your sight bled
not one to pretend you knew
your eyes only saw pictures that were true
and I wish I could've been so
yet bounded by my mind I never grew
but you tell me its not the end of the show
maybe still in a torn down cabin my world would brew
all my wear and tear in your silent chest I could stow
you wish nothing of me
and that's all it takes to make one want to be
and maybe one day we'll come together and be three

Well look at all the things I showed you
Look at your world, I made it blue
You could never do it without me
You never had my dexterity.
You can't hope to be as good as I've been
You can only try,but don't try too hard
You'll fracture your shin.
Just accept I was born better maybe then
You can be happy in your 2nd place
Or you know look at my footsteps and keep on the trace
Who am I to give you advice anyways?
I enjoy that pitiful look on your face
No,no,no go on keep on the chase.
I'm sure you'll catch up someday
Be very eager to  pray.
You'll need it
It's not like I keep you around for my amusement
Though you do feed it
Aw are you hurt? is that a cut?
Don't worry I'll treat it.

She showed me so much
The dreams of us
Lies that's all they were,nothing I could ever touch
My own little bubble
To hide me away from all the trouble
But you can't hide too long
Or you'll get buried under the rubble
Wait enough and you'll be left just a stubble
Stripped of whatever made you special
Left in a void trying to figure out what it is
But your wits were never spatial
Maybe I'll try to win you back
But could it ever be the same as it used be?
Can we get back to the same track?
You and me front and centre
You and me
Me the student you the mentor
I don't know what I need to do or what is long due
But I know what I want
Just one more sensation of your hue
An opening I can enter
Find whatever it was that used to be me
Then finally from all this Dread and resentment ill be free
Finally you and me sitting gleefully
On our happy little tree
Away from all those people that did this to us
Finally rid of their hubris and fuss
You and me no one but just us
Just us just us just us just us

Well look at me here
All the worst decisions
Towards doom I steer
The fading of my visions
Come find me in your world
I'll hold you dear,my arms curled
Even if the world stands against us
We will weather all it has hurled
Oh darling
Hurt me like you used to
Oh my love
Is there anything I can do?
How must I, prove my intent true?
Love falls into a question
But I know its not a myth
It's a privilege
Only a few are blessed with
Don't you dare leave
You know you're more than a kith
Hey you
Come find me
Hey you
Together we shall be

Each step in my run
I veer closer to the sun
It burns it burns
But I still walk
But why?
Because I'm too scared to talk
Too afraid I'll be a laughing stock
And so I walk and I burn away
Bits and pieces fly
I wish so dearly but I can't cry
Feels as if I went astray
But was there ever a right way?
I only feel because I should
But in truth I never could
A peril born of my own toil
My being it serves to foil

This lovely machination
The devil had a hand in its creation
My righteousness
It's desecration
Filth,it's desperation
Could you ever find a grip.
Snap out of it
Its a synthetic trip
Could you ever change like a switch flip?
Snap out of it
It's nothing but a blip.
A blip in time
Against my soul a crime
Stolen from me my prime
Compensation?
Won't ever be worth more than a dime
Oh do you see my name?
What did I ever want?
Oh do you think I am to blame?
Could tell me to atone but I really cant
Come see me
Look what I've made
Come be me
Live under my woeful shade
Your life for mine?
Wouldn't even be a fair trade
But I'll take it
The deal has been made
