Happy

The only one worth staying for,

is the only one who’ll never leave.

i keep waiting for the fall out.

i keep waiting for the smiles to be temporary.

you said we’d make it through the longest night.

you said you’d always be by my side.

why can’t i just believe you?

 

dark blue of midnight dreams

and wanting you to just want me

its finally real it’s finally time to be

happy.

Blame Games and Losing Streaks

should i wait til you’re listening

should i wait til you care

after all this time i spent

it’s like i was never even there

visions of redemption

are nothing i can’t be

but your pride is a bitter pill

extra dosage turned to me

and i can’t stop it now

this runaway train of empty conversations

 

please don’t talk your way back,

please don’t make believe you want amends,

it’s over it’s over it’s over,

it’s too broken to be fixed,

 

you’re like the itch,

the one that can’t be scratched,

maybe i’m blaming you

for all i didn’t see,

and why i’m lonely.

suddenly i’m staring at your back,

no knife in my hands

but i can’t turn away just yet.

and i can’t stop it now

this runaway train of empty conversations

 

please don’t talk your way back,

please don’t make believe you want amends,

it’s over it’s over it’s over,

it’s too broken to be fixed.

 

are bridges made to be burned?

are lessons made to be learned the hard way?

are bridges made to be burned?

are lessons made to be learned the hard way?

are bridges made to be burned?

are lessons made to be learned the hard way?

are bridges made to be burned?

are lessons made to be learned the hard way?

are bridges made to be burned?

are lessons made to be learned the hard way?

 

please don’t talk your way back,

please don’t make believe you want amends,

it’s over it’s over it’s over,

it’s too broken to be fixed

please don’t talk your way back,

please don’t make believe you want amends,

i can’t pretend that it’s not over yet,

it’s too broken to be fixed again.

Underneath Their Wings

heroes are such fickle things to have

underneath their wings, underneath their wings,

we find that they do not exist cept to the naked eye.

 

long ago i had a friend,

who was a hero of mine.

before i knew better than to let him have my pride

he got himself into a corner of my mind,

and now i never sleep alone at night.

 

falling so easy,

falling so hard.

taken aback by all of your scars,

falling so easy,

falling so hard,

they thank you after you tear them apart,

falling…

 

once upon a cloudy dream,

there was a ghost who haunted me,

lines on his face told stories of a worser time,

so i let him have this heart of mine.

 

lately he stays up at night,

looking for the brightest star in the sky,

i try to help but i’m blind,

to everything because he hides,

deeper in the pockets of my insides,

than even i can go.

 

falling so easy,

falling so hard.

taken aback by all of your scars,

falling so easy,

falling so hard,

they thank you after you tear them apart,

falling…

Doors Unbroken

Lightless puddles,

Are what you’ve come to be,

If you can’t help but

Leave me exactly where you want me.

All the broken promises,

All the empty tears,

All the salty wounds,

What happened here?

 

Behind doors I can’t break down,

Broken hearts are giving up and letting go,

It’s all they know.

Behind windows tainted red,

From unneccesary bloodshed,

I see weightless good intentions

Overshadowed by the urge to fight it off,

Behind doors we can’t break down…

 

Lightless tunnels,

Are what lie ahead

If we cant help but

Let ourselves

Be mislead.

All the broken promises,

All the empty tears,

All the salty wounds,

What happened here?

 

Behind doors I can’t break down,

Broken hearts are giving up and letting go,

It’s all they know.

Behind windows tainted red,

From unnecessary bloodshed,

I see weightless good intentions

Overshadowed by the urge to fight it off,

Behind doors we can’t break down…

 

You’re scared of your own shadow,

Cause its bigger than you know you’ll ever be,

In your ring of fire,

You’re all you think you need

Cause you don’t see.

 

Behind doors I can’t break down,

Broken hearts are giving up and letting go,

It’s all they know.

Behind windows tainted red,

From unnecessary bloodshed,

I see weightless good intentions

Overshadowed by the urge to fight it off,

Behind doors we can’t break down…
