i guess my mistake was, i saw you as memories. i must’ve forgot that there was still more of you to remember.
i am made up of broken promises and unlived dreams.
i’m always running away,
am i even worth knowing?
it’s funny how things change,
and life keeps going.
if you are not aware of others
and not aware of yourself
you are chaos
if you are aware of others,
and not aware of yourself,
you are weak,
if you are not aware of others,
and only aware of yourself,
you are foolish,
if you are aware of others and yourself,
you are powerful
you have become many things,
like the certain shape of a cloud,
or a ring pop for a wedding ring,
a flower in the ground,
and a ghost that haunts my memories.
here’s my glass cup
fill it up, with your love, my love
she’s calling last call
and i can’t get enough
drunk on subliminal things
stumbling when i hear your name
such a lovely sound
the moon had already kissed her
long before i met her.
her eyes were dark,
but she always felt like a campfire.
her beauty was nothing like diamonds,
it was more like the light that reflects off the clouds from above them,
she was obviously beautiful, but few ever chose the window seat.
i’d jump out this plane if i could,
i swear id land in a heavenly oblivion
a beautiful possibility,
an extraordinary maybe,
“the great perhaps”,
a hopeful tomorrow.
anything may happen,
so let it happen,
and to experience it,
how rare it must be.
cardboard boxes,
felt more like home,
always running,
from things i don’t know,
in the backseat,
everything i own,
call me crazy,
but i feel so alone.
and i can’t decide if i’m,
living or if i’m gone,
there’s a ghost living here,
and i take him everywhere.
hold on.
my grip is getting loose,
my reality is due,
we die for what we choose,
and i’m fucked up,
you got me fucked up.
what is this society,
fighting for entirely?
getting kind of tired,
of bullshit and liars.
fakers with a smile,
and fakers with power.
sweet talking money,
has made us all sour.
fuck the institutions,
abusing us with counterfeit.
the government wants us clueless,
the truth is we are powerless.
until we decide to unite,
and banish all our biases.
storm the castle tonight,
and take back broken promises.
“my head was killing me, i was killing me.”
— m.v
i swear i never lived until i met you
you write so beautiful
i imagine you wear flowers in your hair
and your presence graceful
and i wonder what sorrow your eyes wear?
i would love to agree with you,
but my flowers have died,
i slouch and i limp,
and there’s darkness in my eyes.
i own many scars,
none of which i paid for,
and i ripped out my heart,
so i couldn’t feel it anymore.
even these things can be beautiful i see,
but my perception is blind to me,
i’d rather live through your eyes,
it sounds so much more lovely.
wasted,
i have wasted all my precious time,
chasing a high.
o novocaine,
infect my mind with lovely lullabies,
and tell me everything is alright.
remember you are loved and that your existence matters <333
the world is littered in gold, you just gotta know where to find it
if love is a game,
and ignorance is bliss,
who’s to say we’re winning?
flashlight in a mist,
blind from all who see you,
and when your heart is lit,
careful of the people,
with sweet, sweet sentiments.
it seems my hearts gone cold,
i guess ill save it for later,
you found me in mist, in stone,
throw me in the refrigerator.
maybe one day,
in adoration,
i’ll spark the things
that i was saving,
maybe then,
you’ll see my worth,
burn me up,
into fireworks.
if i’m being honest
i have to let you go
the southern sun is setting
sinking ships below
backwards i’ve been running
downwards i have flown
heart is getting heavy
you say it’s overgrown
i think you’ve come to a great point in life, when you can see yourself in everyone you meet
all you do is lie and deceit
don’t you know an eye for an eye
is a bad habit? so keep the receipt
i need them to see,
but this is deeper than me.
try having a secret to keep
with a backstabbing grit in your teeth
but want the whole world to love you
as their favorite mystery piece
how can you blame a single person you meet.
i’m no angel you see
i fly high with devils
born with no wings
my love embezzled
by impermanent things
we are all sinners unique
and purpose we seek
so keep the ground on your feet
because we’re all here fighting gravity
i remember every night
i held your hand
so you could sleep
and i remember every night
you said to me
you didn’t want to be alive
so i’d never sleep
so that every night
you’d still be here with me
and she was beautiful
and vibrant
and most of the time
a riot
but what i think
you’ll truly never know
secrets to keep
i understand alone
seldom asleep
so when a dream comes along
comatose
never wake me up
how does fate
filter through the stars
mingle with the constellations
inside my troubled heart
under a thousand lights
there’s still nothing as bright as you
my attempt to be understood
stains everything i do
there are no mistakes
let the chaos consume you
