Terminal

He comes in looking for a fight, you stand up heart in your chest and tears in your eyes,

It makes no sense any of it, why love should die and lovers with it,

Take your pills, in your best Sunday dress

Ours isn’t the only war waging tonight.

 

Why is your love terminal?

Why does it take, my last fighting breath from my lips,

Why, is your love terminal?

Why does it make, my only wants into regret.

 

She storms out heading for the road, you die inside, with her each and every step,

How many months does it take to see, that you could’ve prevented it, could’ve prevented a fall.

Take your pills, in your best Sunday dress,

Ours isn’t the only war waging tonight.

 

Why is your love terminal?

Why does it take, my last fighting breath from my lips,

Why, is your love terminal?

Why does it make, my only wants into regret.

 

If we could only see, the virus that feeds, upon our weary hearts,

We would know, how let eachother come and go,

There’d be less broken parts.

 

Why is your love terminal?

Why does it take, my last fighting breath from my lips,

Why, is your love terminal?

Why does it make, my only wants into regret.

How To Be Fully Stupidly In Love.

36 seconds ago, I realized, I was the girl, I never wanted to be.
36 seconds ago, I realized the world was pouring down on me.
To tell me how I'd become the only one to know,
How to love purely, how to love deeply, how to be fully in love.
How to be fully, stupidly in love.

Pressed shirts, clean cheeks, but a lipsticked collar,
Clean it off but theres more, and a single dollar.
And talk is as cheap as the fabric that your shirt's made of.
But I still wait up, anyway.

You Keep Me Down

You talk so loud, but the words are rarely anything to hear,
You act so proud, but I know this just isnt your year,
If it makes it all go away for you, I guess that's fine with me.
If it makes it all seem true to you, I guess that's a-okay,
Until it all catches up with you.

You hold my hand, and keep me down,
You dont trust my smile, only my frown,
I can't help it if I'm everything as advertised,
You won't get anything else than what you see,
So why does this love look like a lie?

Open My Eyes

If you plan to leave me, then please replan,

I can’t take distance, and I can’t take change.

 

Plant two lips on my eye lids, before you go.

I never wanna open my eyes, to find you not here.

Plant two lips, on my eye lids, so I keep them closed.

I never wanna open my eyes, cause I’ll only find tears.

 

You didn’t need to hear it,

But I needed something to cheer me up,

The fact that I’m still me underneath,

Can only be brought out by saying things that I’ll never mean.

World War III

Each only sees their own pain
Never step into the others eyes.
I'm watching it all, feeling the strain,
There's no more tracks but you can't stop a freight train.

Even if they spoke the same language, there in different dialects,
From different worlds, like orange and purple,
The result is never good.

If you could sink any lower than where you are,
You might find a saving grace,
But then again, no...
Its not fair that you can't see that you never had a prayer to start with,
When its so completely obvious.

Sidelined.

Brief, and unexplanatory

Remember the stories you told me?

About the boy and girl and magic

How did we become so tragic?

It’s a life I never wanted for you, baby.

It’s a life that doesn’t suit you very well.

 

You have the feeling like you’ve done all you could.

When in reality you’ve done nothing you should.

Now you’re just watching it all play out.

 

It’s a car crash kinda humor,

How we got here.

The sunset says good morning to you now.

Cause you leave with a smile and without warning.

I can’t feel anything when you’re walking out the door.

 

You have the feeling like you’ve done all you could.

When in reality you’ve done nothing you should.

Now you’re just watching it all play out.

Forever

You're gone from me forever
I thought I had I choice in the matter
Thought I could think for awhile what i wanted
You're gone from forever
You're gone from me forever

Nobody said I'm sorry,
Nobody wanted anything to come to this,
But here we are.
Here we are again.

You're gone from me forever.
I thought I had I choice in the matter,
Thought I could think for awhile what I wanted.
You're gone from me forever
You're gone from me forever.

Your Style

Where’s the boy with the faded eyes,

He’s got the crooked smile,

and the brightest teeth, I’ve ever seen.

He’s got the widest ears, better for him to hear,

his steady heart beat.

I haven’t seen him hear for awhile now, but I left my heart in his father’s car, Haven’t seen him here while, but i guess that’s just youre style.

He’s got the quickest tongue to a compliment,

He’s the one to go to for a gentlemen,

And hands like the softest cotton.

I haven’t seen him here for awhile now, but I told him that he was one for me, Haven’t seen him here in awhile now, but i guess that’s just your style.

Tortured.

You put the blinkers on, and never see what is beyond,

The tortured city lights.

You put the makeup on, and never see what is lead on,

By tortured empty eyes.

Jump darling, cause theres nothing to live for now. (Live for now)

Jump darling, cause there always gonna run their mouths.

Just take my hand, and well hold our ground,

Lets hear em talk about us from the clouds.

This Is Quite Alright.

Can’t say I’m sad to see you here,

I know you know it’d be a lie,

Can’t say it’d hurt to pretend,

That everything is quite alright.

Last time I saw you it was no better than this,

Last time i saw you I was, in no better shape than this

You can see, it’s not your fault then.

Can’t say I’m sad to see you leaving,

I know you know it’d be a lie,

To say love isn’t a reason,

For you to never say goodbye,

Say goodbye,

Last time I saw you it was no better than this,

Last time i saw you, I was, in no better than this,

You can see its not your fault then,

You can see its not your fault then.

And we can still go on pretending, like everything is quite alright.

Like this is quite alright.
