Empty

awake, first light.
sleep another dream trying to escape me.
a world, away.
as the panic sets in and I can’t breathe.
finding out, I left myself
on a bridge burning at both ends.
now theres nothing, left.
but the embers sitting on the water.
cut me up, out of reach.
the ache in my legs fucking haunts me.
my passion, my end.
undoing all the work I'm trying to save.
eyes open, no light.
feeling your warmth slip further away.
do you, believe in me?
cause I’m struggling to keep myself sane.

Shelter

holding the colour, but it all fades.
sinking like a stone when the embers fly.
as the coma collapses.
but all that remains is a shell of what I knew.
I’m so sick.
sick of the days that feel so fucking empty.
when every fight I tried to win, I was left on the ground.
when I decided to bleed, I bled for nothing.
just a memory of shadows, of puppets and parlour tricks.
now I wait for the sun to set, now I wait for an end.
as the colour drains from the leaves,
running down the pavement.
grey skies, black nights, a certain aspect I never loved in life.
if it all burns now,
give me the ash to paint,
what I always told you.
no safe places,
no where to hide,
shelter is a child’s attempt of heaven.

Shadows

these wolves, howl in my throat.
no matter how much, I burn.
this wound, can't close.
when I'm left here in oblivion.
where is the laughter, I used to enjoy?
seems the choices I couldn’t make,
have pushed everyone away.
every time I've tried to grab your shadows,
they hide away.
every time I tried to grab your shadows.
they pulled away.
and now,
I’m left here,
missing my friends.
wondering where all the time has gone.

Blame

and I’ve said all these words before.
a sad fucking life that needs to die.
left in my head, I’m just fucking rotting.
yeah spit a cliche I’m dead on the inside.
theres a chance, that things won’t be the same.
but right now.
theres a chance, that things won’t be the same.
but right now, it don’t feel like things will change.
so cold, wind breaking my bones.
standing still, dawn still so far away.
dead end, a dead end town no-one knows.
passing by.
I’ll let autumn take me.
waiting for my ride.
just to walk alone.
all the pain,
all the shame,
this shit don’t change.
feel the strain,
feel the rain,
it all goes the same.
cold sweats, Im burning through the sheets.
dream of nothing and I've grown to.
I can’t,
get over,
how much,
hasn't changed.
and I’m,
the only one.
left,
to blame.

Red

this is, another message.
to the hate that holds my heart.
these thoughts of mine are stagnant.
mould gathers and tears my house apart.
yeah, thats me.
thats me on the bed wishing I was dead.
yeah, thats me.
thats me on my bed knees stained red.
broken and torn apart.
these fucking thoughts of mine send me downward.
as my voice, feels forced.
was the weight of life supposed to hold me down so much?
I feel so fucking tired.
I don’t wanna be here anymore.
yeah thats me.
thats me on the bed, knees stained red.

I’ve lost myself to a sickness, I cultivated all on my own.
poison passion attracted to, all of the worst parts of the world.
being a slave to the misery,
I sealed myself in those chains.
not being able to break away.
don’t dare break.
a snake eating itself,
a tide of sorrow.
breathing in the smoke of my defeat.
the misery that kills my company.
and eventually its killed me inside.
with every cut I’ve paved, a dirty road.
a silent darkness, burning through.
I ruined,
this map and destroyed all direction.
I am lost,
and my life doesn’t feel worth it.
I don’t know,
why this all feels normal.
I know it shouldn’t, but it does.
falling apart, don’t mean much anymore.
under this sun, shining hell on me.
with all the love in the world, seeping out my flesh.
idle in my, loneliness.
when feeling lost is now.
when feeling lost is now normal.
