Greatest Fears

when we were younger
we could just look at each other and say
"let's not be mad"
but now we have aged
and so has decayed our relationship is strained
and i look in your eyes
and don't see the same things i used to
so i say the words
but not cause I mean them
I just need some sleep
doo doo doo doo
the decomposition of love
doo doo doo doo
when we were younger
I gave my all to you,
and you did too
But now we have grown,
and so have our own
the door is finally closed
I guess that I stopped trying
I know that I'd be lying
If I said I gave you my all
Will there come a time
When you'd rather lie to me?
These are my greatest fears
These are my greatest fears
Now we have grown
And our own have left the lie
Now you've gone
All that's left is to say goodbye

Found Her

i found her crying and alone
she was lonesome her sheets came unsewn
i found her alone i wished her into my arms
we ran through the fire faces tired and worn
I found her lying underneath
the ancient rotting willow tree
and i wondered how long she'd been there, i never could've known
and only in her death did i see the fruits she'd sown
no matter what i did i could not save her
no matter what i did she was already on fire
and i found her where she drew her last breath
heartless with crows upon her chest
i wonder where she is in the afterlife
i pray to god that she'll see the fruits of her strife
with a beating heart she forced mine into a suffocating night
i'll never forget the cruelty in her eyes when she bore that child
no matter what i did i could not save her
no matter what i did she was already on fire
i left her cold and underneath
six feet of earth no room to breathe
i know she's waiting someday she'll see
she'll see every single thing she did to me

i've been a good kid since a young age
independent, never better, but call me up and i'll forget you did
we used to be close but not anymore
i've been trying i've been looking for the door
but you make it so hard on me
and honestly i started hoping i'd come up empty
i wish you'd try, i wish you'd see my side
i don't wanna be here anymore, but i don’t have a choice
i don't wanna be here anymore, scream til i lose my voice
i don't wanna be here anymore x3, but i don't have a choice
tried to let go, tried to fake it
unconvincing so insulting i was just a kid
when did you try? when did you fight?
just too busy just too blind
but you make it so hard on me
and honestly i started hoping i'd come up empty
i wish you'd try, i wish you'd see my side
i don't wanna be here anymore, but i don’t have a choice
i don't wanna be here anymore, scream til i lose my voice
cause in a little time i'll get it back
and i'll figure out where we lost track
don't worry for a second
just give me a minute and i'll fix everything
where did we go back then
i'll put on my grown up hat
look through every photograph
til i know til i know
i don't wanna be here anymore
i don't wanna be here anymore
i don't wanna be here
but i don’t have a choice

The Scarlet Letter

I can't get away from you you follow me everywhere I go
in the day you're a shadow at night you're a ghost
I can't get away from you even in my darkest dreams
you stand in the silence haunting me
as much as i hate everything you taught me
I can't escape the scars you brought me
I will never remove the scarlet letter
reminds me of how it could've been better
you won't see the hell i'm in
you won't know the weight of your sin
until you finally die you'll see why i hide
you broke me and put blinders on my eyes
but i won't die a blind man, no
i can't get away from you if there is one thing that i know
it's that things will never be as they were before
as much as i hate everything you taught me
I'll rise above the pain you brought me
I will never remove the scarlet letter
reminds me of how it could've been better
you won't see the hell i'm in
you won't know the weight of your sin
until you finally die you'll see why i hide
you broke me and put blinders on my eyes
but I won't die like you

A Way

if i were a mountain then you'd be a cloud
lofty, fluffy and white
i'd stretch up my arms to meet you in the sky
if everyone's special then nobody's special
and i guess that's fine
but everyone wants you to wonder why
if icarus hadn't ever thought to fly
he would've burned, or broke
or maybe loved too hard
if everyone's special then nobody's special
believe me it's fine
and it seems i'm asked to define
the way that i feel and the steps i will take
i don't always know my way
but i'm learning and i'm trying
and i'm finding a way
to indulge this curious game
i'll try to say what words can't quite convey
see i don't always know my way
