We are selfish entities
I am my own demise
For I want you here
Here inside my day
I see your words
I hear your voice

Is that slang for me?
I hope it it is
But then I hope it isn't
I shrug it off
Cognitive dissonance
You're responsible
You're to blame for this
That's ridiculous
Your actions run deep in my veins
Your words play inside my brain
And I try in vein
But to no avail
The game we play
Is never fair

Let me help you
I know I can
You're a strong woman
And I'm just a man
But there's things to learn
I'm sure you understand
We are selfish
I want you to myself
But in the end
I know your full
Of doubts
I have this bad habit
When I wake up all
I can think about is
You.
I have this weird feeling
The feeling you have when you miss someone
Or when you're homesick
But I'm  home
And my friends are too
I still feel nothing is here
Does anyone know what I mean?

Light up your ****, while drinking more beer.
Have you even noticed yet? That everyone disappeared.
You could have done so much better throughout all those years.
Instead you decide to stay in, holding all the tears.

Have i mentioned that you're NOT alone?
That maybe you actually have a place too CALL a home?
For our darkest hour, we all have a time of need.
Just for you to listen I'm begging on my knees..

look at what you were, to what you are now.
I hope it makes a difference to just hear me out.
Your a beautiful person, hanging by a rope.
And please don't let go, for i'll give you hope.

So could we get rid of all the **** and the beer?
that's better now.. wait, whats that i hear?
The people.. they've reappeared
it's time to say goodbye to all those fears.

Say hello to the new beginning.

I saw my heart break
I watched it shatter
It sat in pieces on the floor
And you asked me "what's the matter?"
As you walked towards me
I cried out in pain
You stood on the shards
And I felt your weight on my veins
You stared at me with a look of confusion
As if you couldn't see the broken mess
And you walked away
But that didn't make it hurt any less
So I sat on ****** knees
Trying to mend what was broken
After you crushed my heart
And left without a word spoken

The only thing they found under the bed,
were unmatched socks and worn out comics.
The real terrors that waited for me,
Hid inside my mind,
Somewhere between regret and worry.

Desperate to drift to sleep
I'd meet the monster inside.
He wouldn't try to attack,
He'd grin and I'd grin back,
We were the same after all.

Pour your heart out to me
I can't
Why?
*You'd drown in the very first drop
