I remember when your head caught flame
It kissed your scalp and caressed your brain
Well you laughed, baby it's okay
It's buzz cut season anyway
(Well you laughed, baby it's okay)
Explosions on TV, and all the girls with heads inside a dream
So now we live beside the pool, where everything is good
We ride the bus with the knees pulled in
People should see how we're living
(We ride the bus with the knees pulled in)
Shut my eyes to the song that plays
Sometimes this has a hot, sweet taste
(Shut my eyes to the song that plays)
The men up on the news, they try to tell us all that we will lose
But it's so easy in this blue, where everything is good
And I'll never go home again (place the call, feel it start)
Favorite friend (and nothing's wrong when nothing's true)
I live in a hologram with you
We're all the things that we do for fun (and I'll breathe, and it goes)
Play along (make-believe it's hyper real)
But I live in a hologram with you
Cola with the burnt-out taste
I'm the one you tell your fears to
There'll never be enough of us
Explosions on TV, and all the girls with heads inside a dream
So now we live beside the pool, where everything is good
And I'll never go home again (place the call, feel it start)
Favorite friend (and nothing's wrong when nothing's true)
I live in a hologram with you
We're all the things that we do for fun (and I'll breathe, and it goes)
Play along (make-believe it's hyper real)
But I live in a hologram with you
I am bored with love
and it's passionless limbs
that drape over my bed
in a lethargic state of impotence
while wearing the same red heart
my soul picked up hitchhiking
off highway serendipity
Now here we are
alone in togetherness
trying to build dreams
with two by fours and glue,
but even a home
won't tie us together
when our hearts live alone
Poetic vows cliched
into nothingness
like all words do, eventually
and we allowed
our bodies to become
another pair of hollow shadows
that make love to a wall
instead of each other
and we wonder why
the roses are dying
Loves memory has traced our outline in this place.
But will the spider remember, or the sun?
Did the water capture our faces in permanence?
Does the wind create us anew as it blows?
Did the shadows from the trees record our passage beneath them?
Our secret been revealed.
Yet I have told no other.
I write these words in silence, in mute testimony
To what once was.
But our image remains alive in this place.
It can not be removed.
You, me,
We then,
Were here.
We saw the day and hoped for tomorrow.
We caught a brief glimpse of love's promise.
We were not liars,
But thieves of time.
For now time has now forgotten us,
Yet our memory lingers, and love remembers
This place that was ours.
Self harm is not for attention
It's a silent scream
It's killing your every demon
It's your most terrible thought
It is just an addiction
When I'm upset.
I shut myself down.
I have no motivation for anything.
I tell myself that nobody cares.
even though some do.
I think about all the negitive things
I could possibly think of
I give myself all the pain
Thinking I deserve it
I'm not sure why I do that,
but that's just how I am.
On the outside Im so fucking fine.
But on the inside I am not,I'm just fucked up,
And I can't do anything about it.
Im constantly trying to make people
feel better about themselves because I know
What it's like to feel bad about yourself.
FUCK trying to impress you.
FUCK believing you.
FUCK thinking about you.
FUCK trusting you.
FUCK your words.
FUCK this.
FUCK YOU.
We're all in the same game;
Just different levels. Dealing with
The same Hell; Just different
Devils.
It's fucked up when
People throw things
From your past in your
Face.
Three words,
Eight letters,
One meaning;
A profoundly tender,
passionate affection
for another person.
I love you
The phrase gets misused,
And misunderstood.
Most people don't know
What it's like to feel love...
When they see that person,their stomach flips,
And someone lets butterflies
free in their stomach.
They constantly think about that person,
They never leave their mind.
When they think of them,
They automatically smile.
That is the effect of,
Three words,
Eight letters,
One meaning.
Even Though you are gone,
I will still love you.
Even though you are gone,
I will still remember you.
The bad times, the good times,
The fun times, the sad times...
The times we fought, the times we laughed,
The times we played, the times we cried...
All seems like yesterday.
Although we may be far apart, 1 million miles it may seem.
We are still very close in the heart like sugar in Kool Aid.
I close my eyes. I see your face,
with every bit I can retrace.
Days together, days apart,
Days that took this broken heart.
Now I'm blind, you took my eyes,
eyes of my heart; you said goodbye.
I sit alone this empty night,
broken, don't know what's right.
Footprints you've left as you walked out of my heart,
I'm terrified, confused; now falling apart.
Days turned black to blue,
hours and hours I thought of you.
I cry in this lonely room,"Babe, I'll be home soon"
Where your eyes will shine,
home, where you'll say you're mine.
For now I let the tears that fall,
my heart, my mind, you have it all.
The darkness, the cold, wishing you're here,
gives me shelter, shelter from tears.
I sit across this ticking clock,
Ticking slowly as thunder struck.
The silence of Hell,but where's my soul to sell?
All that's left are the tears that stream,
and nothing but a broken dream.
Here I lay, I closed my eyes, the angels cry,
As I give up,
On you,
On us,on this love that dies;
so here's my goodbye.
You said you didn't love me,
You said you didn't care.
You said I wasn't worth it,
And then you gave me a stupid stare.
I told you that was fine,
I told you I didn't mind,
I told you I wasn't upset,
And with that you left me behind.
Now I think about what happened,
As I cry myself to sleep.
I tell myself that I'll be fine,
And that I shouldn't have to weep.
I tell my family I am happy.
I tell my friends I'm OK.
But what I really am feeling,
Inside of me is starting to go grey.
I should have told you I loved you,
I should have told you to stay.
But you said you didn't want to anymore.
And my friends say you turned gay.
Now as we talk, We joke, laugh, and play.
You think I've moved on,
While inside of me is screaming "STAY!"
You said you didn't love me,I said I didn't care.
As I think about and regret it,
I know what we have, we don't share.
Thousands of tears
Rush down my face.
Inside my mouth
Blood is all I taste.
Blow by blow I take the hits in
through all of it
Not a sound I make.
I bite back Every ounce of pain.
Through hitting me
What does he gain?
A thousand tears run
down my face
but not a single
sound escapes.
Walking through the rain,
I try to forget the pain.
I try to ignore the sting in my eyes,
because I know, a strong girl never cries.
I begin to run, run from my fears.
But I am followed by my ever present tears.
I want to leave these familiar places,
leave behind all of these frequent faces.
But where will I go?
What will I do?
All I know is I have to get far away from you.
But something keeps me here,
crying one last tear.
The blade is cold
But not old
I didn't go deep
I didn't even weep
Just one cut is all I need
And my mind goes calm, while my cut bleeds
It was harmless but helped so much
I stopped being mad and such
No more angry thoughts went through my mind
Just fascination, everything else left behind
Is the start or the end?
All I know is I don't want to disappoint my friend
Is it too late for me?
I thought I was getting better but I only pretended to be
The cut now stains my arm
Nothing big or deep, nothing to cause much harm
A cat scratch is what I'll say
But I doubt people will see any day
They won't see the real me and who I am
They won't see my body is disconnected from my brain stem
I don't want attention, I don't deserve it
I play along with the world, but my candle is not lit
I'm a lost soul on this land
My minds drifting, my body sinking in sand
I've given up on people
It's now me alone in my own steeple
I get so mad so quick
Like a switch on the wall, tense with every click
Maybe I'm only meant to be there for others
Don't the daughters learn from the mothers?
Only my mother does not know me
She only sees who she wants to see
There's no way her sweet child
Cut her arm to keep her mind from going wild
Do they realize their actions affect me so?
That sometimes they cause me to hit my low?
No they don't, all they see is him
They can't even see the pattern; my cups reached its brim.
He angers then he lies
To get people to take him back. I bet he even denies
The wrongs that he's done
All because he thinks life is fun
But when will he see
That he's just another wanna be
It's possible I just don't belong
There are parts of me I've discovered are gone
Like my patience to wait
I'm done waiting there's nothing to debate
Once I'm of age you'll barely see me
Once I get a car I'll never be here to be
I witness to the yells or shouts
A witness to the pattern of oh okay and get out
A witness to tears and uproars
A witness to hurtful words and slamming doors
A witness to a father who's confused
Because my aunt is either okay or blowing a fuse
I'll stop being the victim of being on the edge
Because I'll stop being around, I won't be on the ledge
I won't be the victim of feeling guilty anymore
I won't be the victim or witness everytime I walk out that door
Am I lost? That's easy to say
Is there hope? We'll see with each coming day.
My name does not matter all that matters is the story my friend
The one with a strong beginning, unclear middle, but no end.
It's a screwed up world even a blind man could see
That to fake happiness you have to be who others expect you to be.
"Killin' shit, killin' it, jus'on my supervillian shit..."
"Bitch you think you cold, well I'm lyrically a sweater to you
Catch me in the world brah, doing what I said I'd do
All hail the Queen, bitches put me on a pedestal
And I'm out here running, I'm gunnin', I never stop to breathe
Angel "might" be good, bitch fuck your whole hypothesis
Bitch I came to kill shit, literally KILL shit
I came and bitches left, right? Got em' on that drill shit"
Sometimes you
Just gotta learn
To just use your
Heart less...
I wish I could say I didnt care anymore,
I wish I could say you dont matter.
And I really wish, that one day,
I'll fine someone who wont break my heart.
Once -, Twice- , and a Third-I think Im done.
3 is the deal breaker.
But this is not going to be a pity party.
I will not let myself break down anymore.
If they dont give 2 shits about me, why should I?
Why should I still care about them?
Forgive them?The anwser is, I probably shouldnt.
Though thats easier said then done.
I will still care about them, I will still forgive them.
Because even though they can try and erase me,
I never forget someone who was once my best friend.
Maybe that makes me stupid for saying that,
Saying I will always still be there for someone who,
Will not likely, return the favor. But now I think
I've learned my lesson. Dont trust too much.
Dont hope too much.
Dont love too much,
Cause when those things are lost,
It hurts so much...
