Breathe with me
Feel my air
Who am I?
Who really cares?
Do I even matter?
Is there purpose out there?
I have so much love
With whom do I share?
I can't hide this wear and tear, but I don't hide it. I don't care.
None of this fucking matters, I don't care.
I was the tallest mountain standing high but this was only cause my friends were by my side, now they're gone off with the wind.
It's finally time for me to look in.
I was just a kid
to have loved and lost
I was just a boy
Who will bear this cost?
Will you be there waiting?
Will you be there?
Do I even matter?
Who will be there to keep me breathing?
I can't hide this wear and tear, but I don't hide it. I don't care.
None of this fucking matters, I don't care.
Awoken by nightmares, eruptions in my head
Dreaming of the day when I wasn't better off dead
Where is my backbone?
Are sex and drugs the only thing that ever fucking mattered?
Barely nineteen and all my motivation has been shattered
I've been living like a piece of shit despite you
In all honesty I just don't know what to do
Will you be there?
Do I even matter?
Who will be there to keep me breathing?

Watch You Leave

I have these pictures in my head that I can't paint with words
I have these choices in my life that people think are just absurd
My life is such a contradiction like I'm busy doing nothing, just waiting and wishing
This watch it ticks but still time hasn't healed a thing
Why don't you feel the same?
I try and keep my head held high but I've got nowhere to go
The empty bottles hide the feelings that I'm too scared to show
I'd tell you all of this, but I'm sure you know
So I'll just spend the days wasting away
There's so much beauty in the way she leaves
The way you walk away, it's haunting me
I never knew it'd get this hard to breathe, without you here helping me

Sorry

I get lost so many nights
I get lost so many days
Barely living with no means for an escape
I refuse to live my life this way
If my passion's strong, will my heart not fade?
Carry my burdens and free my ways
You're the one who kept my darkness away
She said I love you, I said I love you too
I just wish that one day I could learn to love like you
I can see it in your eyes when you look at me
The distance from who you are and who you want to be
Speak out, a cry for help
To a heart, that has never felt
Speak out, a cry for help
I'll keep on searching
I'll keep on moving
I will not give up
This is my life
I own my actions
I know the road is tough
Your words of wisdom
Your heart of gold
In your life I trust
We used to speak about forever
I swear one day we'll be together
Home
The heart
Nothing will tear us apart
I will not lose control, this life is my own

It's time to disregard all feeling and let my head drift into the ceiling
Before the weight of the world I'm kneeling
I'm sorry for never being good enough for you
Just too much of a mess for us both to compromise
Let me be what you could never be
Don't let his mistakes impact me
Don't become what you hated
I'm not the man you were
Don't worry I learnt it wasn't your fault
Just a product of your environment
I can't hate you for that
You don't have to let the scars he left impact you forever
Don't take what you could never achieve out on me
After all you gave me, love is love and blood is blood
Fuck being successful, I just wanna be happy
I can't move past the mirrors gaze because my reflection is in the way
Is it safe to say that I have strayed from my old ways?
Years spent vacant without a care
Is it finally time for me to belong here?
This isn't a song of hate or retribution
I just wanted to say one thing
It's okay, I forgive you.

Teeth

So take my hand and write for me
For I am hopeless at these things
Words spitting nonsense among nonsense
A hopeless poets cry
I was stuck here for days
Wading through a never ending haze
Are my words worth hearing?
Is any of this endearing?
So bite my lip and pull me closer in
Steal the words right from my mouth
Cigarette stained teeth, spit tainted words
Help me rearrange these words to paint pictures in your brain that will make you feel the same as me
What the fuck is there to write about?
Love is all I write about
I remember the night
I never knew I could feel love
Cigarette stained teeth
Never looked so good
I try and push it out but it all feels the same
Is it my hands or head to blame?
I held your hands, our bodies warm from liquor
Move an inch closer, the least bit bitter
I try and push it out but it all feels the same
Love is all I write about
I remember that night dancing to the smiths I've never felt a love like this
Never leave
Stay here with me
In serenity

I was so starry eyed
I had my hopes up high
They always said "you'll shine"
I guess one day I'll try
My mother said that men don't cry, she had my hopes up so high
