Your Kind

When you smile,

I never know what you're thinking,

Even when I think I do,

I can’t hear behind lullabies, Sirens in my mind,

Telling you I am just your kind.

Good For You

You’re only living life afraid,

You’re only dreaming what is safe,

And that’s not good for you,

You’re only breathing to live,

You’re only living to die,

And that’s not good for you.

 

They silence you, so easily, I can’t believe the words that they don’t hear,

You don’t speak to them, Cause they just can’t handle truth,

That' you’re not alone, In wanting what you deserve to know,

And what’s not that good for you.

Oh I could be so could be so good for you,

Cause I’m not good at all.

 

You sparkle with perspiring fears,

You’re drowning in your own lake of tears,

And that’s not good for you.

You control what goes in and out,

Of a heart with stain glass windows crying out,

And that’s not good for you.

 

You’re ancient in mental years,

You can’t see through all the smoke of love that doesn’t hold all it hurts,

I know it hurts,

I know it hurts.

 

They silence you, so easily, I can’t believe the words that they don’t hear,

You don’t speak to them, Cause they just can’t handle truth,

That' you’re not alone, In wanting what you deserve to know,

And what’s not that good for you.

Oh I could be so could be so good for you,

Cause I’m not good at all.

Careless Again

Careless hearts can make such messes,

Tying knots with silken sashes,

Leaving me to burn away inside,

And then kissing all the ashes.

It’s a moth to the flame at the end of the written world.

 

Again,

They beat us down again,

Again,

They take our strength again,

Again,

They leave us down,

But we will rise.

Again.

 

Careless words can make such dangers,

New born babies in broken mangers,

I’ve no exposure to anything else,

And then I’m kissing strangers,

It’s a moth to the flame at the end of the written world,

Again,

They beat us down again,

Again,

They take our strength again,

Again,

They leave us down,

But we will rise.

Again.

The Poison. (Chorus)

 

It looked like the end of the world,

But it was only the end of a girl,

Who only wanted to be,

What you wanted to see.

Stand up, you can be perfect

Without the poison.

Without You

This could be the last time I ever see your face in my head,

After that there’s no more fantasies, or laying up in bed,

I’m sure I’ll miss it, No I won’t miss this,

Feeling of regret over everything we said,

I’m a stupid girl,

I’m a stupid girl,

But you are stupider for making me feel stupid.

 

I had a night, I had a moment,

A few weeks ago, when I wanted you,

I felt bad, I was pissed,

Then I showed myself what I could do, without you.

Without you.

 

This could be the first time I ever really stand on my own,

After this, my heart will be all my own.

Prove it.

Remember when you stood for something?

Now you’d crawl for any word out of their mouths.

But you don’t speak for yourself.

 

Prove to me,

That it’s possible, possible,

For you to feel anything,

For you to mean anything at all to even you.

 

I think you are suffering,

From some disease,

That eats up your insides, and your opinions?

When did you become another one of their, millions?

I don’t want to replace you, but it would be so easy now.

You don’t have an arguement because you know I’m right you know I’m right.

 

Prove to me,

That it’s possible, possible,

For you to feel anything,

For you to mean anything at all to even you.

Best of Me (Chorus stays, verses subjective)

My anger is an energy,

That gets the best of me,

But you can have the rest of me,

When it is finished with me.

 

You can try to deny,

That I mean a word of this.

You only wish that I didn’t.

You can go on your own,

To a place that I won’t see my face,

But tonight I’m gonna make you cry.

 

My anger is an energy,

That gets the best of me,

But you can have the rest of me,

When it is finished with me.

 

There is no form of hope,

That can take on the shape,

Of a life that’s already been wasted.

There is too many few,

Simples lines to say,

Now that I’ve gone away,

 

My anger is an energy,

That gets the best of me,

But you can have the rest of me,

When it is finished with me.

Ghost Town Memories

You sold out. You broke down.

Did you ever know what you wanted?

You told me. You loathe me.

Did you ever think I’d believe it?

Time heals and time can build

Castles from salt and sand,

Why don’t you take my hand?

You know it’s what you want.

You live in the walls because nobody told you I’m safe.

You can see for yourself but you would rather just push me away.

 

Did it get to be too much?

Was it never good enough?

I knew I was never gonna be good enough.

You are never gonna call this bluff,

But you think its you that I’m talking of.

What holds you back what makes you weak?

Is it your memories?

 

I tried it. I liked it.

It was always what I wanted.

I made sure. It was pure.

I guess I never thought they would hear me.

Love kills and love can break me,

I surrender willingly,

I know it’s all you want.

I understand why you left the ghost town of a home that you come from.

I also understand perfectly that you’d be perfect with me.

 

Did it get to be too much?

Was it never good enough?

I knew I was never gonna be good enough.

You are never gonna call this bluff,

But you think its you that I’m talking of.

What holds you back what makes you weak?

Is it your memories?

 

I know they scarred you.

But I can fix you.

Let me get the broken parts.

You know you trust me.

You want to need me.

You’re the only one who’s stopping you from letting go of everything,

I won’t hurt you. I won’t hurt you.

I won’t hurt you. I won’t hurt you.

We need to be strong.

 

Did it get to be too much?

Was it never good enough?

I knew I was never gonna be good enough.

You are never gonna call this bluff,

But you think its you that I’m talking of.

What holds you back what makes you weak?

Is it your memories?

Writing In Pen (the warm up)

I could’ve changed,

There was time,

I chose the getaway,

 

Who’s keeping score?

Write it in pen cause we’re not changing it after this.

Finally, I can breathe, doesn't that mean that you can no longer win?

Prayers and predators, have a lot more in common,

Saints and sinners, fight over a golden coffin.

 

You could’ve stopped this,

You could’ve helped me to believe,

That i was more, even when I wasn’t anything,

Now I’m pointing fingers, cause I’ve never felt more to blame,

I’m still angry, and I still have yet to change.

 

Replace me with,

Everything I’m not,

Start over, yeah yeah, start over,

Sorry I wasted all your time,

Start over, yeah yeah, start over,

Cause who knows what could happen if you ever pressed rewind?

 

Does it scare you, to think that you could be alone too,

Does the thought ever enter the cracks in your mind,

The places that she’ll never reach.

 

You could’ve stopped this,

You could’ve helped me to believe,

That i was more, even when I wasn’t anything,

Now I’m pointing fingers, cause I’ve never felt more to blame,

I’m still angry, and I still have yet to change.

Stay

Well I think it’s come to now or never,

Jump or fall but either way youre going down.

I’m bracing myself, and taking you out,

It’s gone to far, I gotta save myself.

It’s not a game I’m gonna lose.

 

I want you, tonight.

I want you, forever.

Baby, there’s gonna be some heavy hitting, if I don’t get all of you, to myself, I’m gonna haveta roll some heads, cause that is not okay, it is not okay for you to walk away, so just.

Stay.

 

Well I think we’re kinda finished with the starting routine,

We’ve been standing at the line, only wasting time,

I’m bracing myself, for taking you in,

I gotta have you, but I gotta save myself,

It’s not a game I’m gonna easily lose.

Weird.

Light whispers always tell us what we want to hear

When everything around seems so dim nothing is clear

Theres something quite unnerving about the way we are

When darkness and shadows are  never very far,

The difference is inviting, although it’s somewhat false,

To say that fact is fiction after we are off the wall,

The ceilings have curved toward us,

And theres nothing we can do,

About our situations, we never have our clues.

 

It’s so weird,

How I can be alone, with you,

How I can always follow through

To other thoughts when you’re near.

I think it’s cause we’re weird.

 

Love is just a question without its question mark,

Cause everything is different when you see it in the dark,

Lonely thoughts have drifted into everything we say

Never asking why but living day by painful day,

The moments passed and now we think about how time is gone,

Cause once the dream is dreamt then it is something we have done,

This is no accident,

This is no hypothetical way,

This was not planned before hand,

This is our lives, after they end.

 

It’s so weird,

How I can be alone, with you,

How I can always follow through

To other thoughts when you’re near.

I think it’s cause we’re weird.

 

Tears will follow afterthoughts cause everything’s unreal,

Thats we tell ourselves.

Think out loud or not at all cause here we’ve offed our heads.

Cause we’re weird…
