I'll Break It Myself

Wakes up to another broken mirror
Breaks down, that reflections so much clearer
Claws at straws to find or fake a smile
Like the effort doesn't prove his own denial of
His inability to fix flaws
He thinks no ones noticed it at all
Lying to himself enough to believe there's nothing wrong but we all see
Scared kid with no direction
A lost sense of all affection
A cold heart that seems inviting
Inside out inciting fighting
All day everyday every year
Holds fears closer than than his peers
He'll face himself alone as sorrow starts to feel like home
Beats himself like it'll make
His skin thicker or help him get his way
A self deprecating bastard
Wants to spend his whole life plastered
So reliant on intoxication, wakes up shaking drank his medication
For the shit he feels inside, that asshole hates his life
Scared kid with no direction
A lost sense of all affection
A cold heart that seems inviting
Inside out inciting fighting
All day everyday every year
Holds fears closer than than his peers
He'll face himself alone as sorrow starts to feel like home
These screams at broken glass, promises the bottom of this glass is the last
Time will tell if in hell we can pick up the pieces
Unsure of what's to come, or how to fix what shits been done
A rift we must refrain adrift a drink is what's to blame
Maybe this low points turning, lessons of stress and learning
With room to grow from exposed depressive episodes
Scared kid with no direction
A lost sense of all affection
A cold heart that seems inviting
Inside out inciting fighting
All day everyday every year
Holds fears closer than than his peers
He'll face himself alone as sorrow starts to feel like home

Bedhead

A few months and all that's stressed is memories forgot and ones that set
Like waking up at 2pm and watching you sleep away the hours
As if life wasn't burning one day at a time, while we drank every night away
I knew it'd be to much to ask for things to just stay the same
I want you in my bed again
Not you now, but the one I have inside my head
And I've been lying to all my closest friends saying these feelings for you are dead
But I want you in my bed again
Can't have a conversation without saying your name, a shameful sound
And when I'm alone I swear you're all I think about
As if our lives were intertwined until nothing felt like mine
Our days together are always on my mind
I want you in my bed again
Not you now, but the one I have inside my head
And I've been lying to all my closest friends saying these feelings for you are dead
But I want you in my bed again
And even if all I chose was best I still think of you sometimes
Because truth be told I always wish I could relive that life
The moment passes and I know being with you is not right
And I know this is something you never think about
But your memory is haunting, your memory is haunting my mind
I want you in my bed again
Not you now, but the one I have inside my head
And I've been lying to all my closest friends saying these feelings for you are dead
But I want you in my bed again

Mutual Mistakes
02:26
|

|
The look in your eyes becomes too much for me sometimes
Like prying for answers to problems in both of our lives
Write this one down for me and let the ink just fade away
We're both wishing for something that just won't change
The guilt and shame with both live with, can it be unlearned
Don't answer, I'm not asking you
These mutual mistakes can't be erased without the stains of heartache that remain
Now I'm filled with remorse anytime I so much as hear your name
One night and one regret, a secret kept, a story I'll never tell
I'll remember it shakily until it feels like hell
Guilt takes it's toll, it gets so hard to hold things in
We both lie to ourselves believing it's better to hide our sins
Dramatic exits and we keep our distance now
Never knew the feeling of being so let down by myself
Sacrificing sanity keeping secrets that make things worse
Why would we ever ask forgiveness
These mutual mistakes can't be erased without the stains of heartache that remain
Now I'm filled with remorse anytime I so much as hear your name
One night and one regret, a secret kept, a story I'll never tell
I'll remember it shakily until it feels like hell

Leave Me Behind

Darkened walls, sleepless nights, I don't wanna get out of bed to fight
Another day, another time, I'm running on fumes, check engine light
Shorter calls, longer days, I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna stay
I've lost control of how I feel, so how the fuck am I supposed to deal
Well, you're tearing me apart, do you notice
You're killing me and I wish it was worth it
You seem so far away these days, why not just go away
Not much to hold on to, so go on, but I know I'll stay
A year, so long, I fucked it up, I can't move on, I'm fuckin' stuck
You keep me here it's still unclear, what you want is what I fear
So leave me be or take me whole
You've turned your back, your shoulders cold
The way you act is like a game, you win, I lose, it's all the same
Am I disposable when someone shows you a little love
It's like you live to like me more when I am giving up
Disposed of hopes and dreams that I wanted with you
Wish I'd been good enough before you said we're through
