What if I let you in lock and key original sin?
Even when you pull the pin and everyone dies then who wins?
Hiding in the shadows if your cowardice
Your honesty, honestly, is a scarlet letter
Break your silence and face your shame
You can't get out of your own way
There's serendipity, in everything you did to me
Could you even feel your lie bottled it up and buried inside?
Did you ever wonder why you did so little as your best friend died?
Covering your selfishness in playful bliss
Was she worth losing me do you feel better?
Maybe she's meant to kill anything
That stands to get in her way
You were just another pawn to be used for her own gain
Your silence could fill a room
And everyone knows it except for you

Will I ever be strong enough to beat the pressure
Of everyday life? How do I know if I'm living it right?
Paralyzed in the depths of my own apprehension
Craving a sense of home at my core and down to the bone
Does it ever get better?
Constantly evading pain, dodge it like bullets but it's all in vain
I'm so scared to be on my own
How can I walk away? Its all chaos inside of my brain
Trying to be someone that everyone thinks I am
I just want to be okay and live my life
The pain that I feel that I try to conceal it keeps my up at night
Anxiety, stay away from me
I am a work in progress trying not to fall apart
I want to stay locked in my room, forever and ever
Like a ghost in the night, disappear from everyone's life
Cause I'm happiest when I'm alone but I want to get better
Why can't I feel the same? It's like everyone is happy but me
And it cuts like daggers
Lost control of my mental health, trapped in my head as I wait for help
Writing out the words for validation
Chasing and endless wealth, I don't recognize myself
Trying to piece together a life that feels whole
Stay away anxiety

feel new again
Thanks to all my friends
As they sat with me in the depths of my depression
Cause when I see her ghost
It's what hurts me most
But it's comforting to know I had a home
And that I wasn't alone
Cross my heart, hope to die
I see a little hope within those eyes
Rest in me, stay and see
I have a little faith that you'll find peace
One day all my reasons and demons will leave me alone
You gave me hope when I needed it most
At work again
Still trying to mend
I couldn't let them see that I couldn't hold it together
And then my brother said
Your pain will end
And I'll stay with you until you feel better
Because you'll get better
Just hold on.....

Apology

I'm sorry that I hurt you
You didn't deserve it
I want to be honest, I knew it wouldn't last
I saw how much you loved me
And though I loved how you made me feel
I couldn't reciprocate it
I felt guilty, so I tried to love you
The same way I knew you loved me too
But I finally realized, I just didn't feel it
So I didn't cut the cord
Until I couldn't stand it anymore
I knew the only way for both of us to be ourselves was to hurt you
At your core
Tear your soul out of your bones
I hate it that it had to be me
Despite me needing to leave, I considered being unhappy
Cause I wanted to spare your heart from the damage that I would cause
Even though I know you hate me
I still want you to be happy
You deserve someone who loves you as much as you love them

I think I love you
Even though I’m not supposed to
Am I betraying a friend?
Just to mend this empty space in my heart
I feel the weight of the pressure
As I contemplate the sin
We don’t live forever
One day our dads will bring us home
This time it shows
You’re all I know
My heart can take anything that you say to it
I want to see the world thats inside your head
My heart can take anything that you say to it
You are anything but usual, so beautiful
And are you afraid, of being alone?
I can be your home
Cause I’ve felt your soul
I know we’re friends
I’ll fuck that up with my pen (A stupid kid with a heart)
Cursed with being alone
In my head, as you healed my shattered bones (Your voice can heal every scar)
Safe inside the shelter
That you created for me (Can I stay here?)
And in the darkest of places
You gave me a space where I could grow (From the past that haunts our memories)
Will you give me a chance
To fall in love
Heart, mind, body, and soul
Let me give you a chance
To fall in love
