The conscious man is dead
Buried alive
So brutally, he dug his own grave
All for his love
Everything about her engulfed him
If he had known he would never have danced
If he had known he wouldn't he sung in the rain
If he had known he would have listened
When she told him not to love.
Drop me already
I may be fragile
But of what use is being preserved
If I'm still getting broken
If I do hit the ground
Surely I'll shatter
After all
there's only this much of me left to be broken.
There is a ginger haired boy that lives across my street
I can't help but stare on my way to school
And Everytime he smiles in response with eyes filled with joy. I wish my eyes could hold just a little joy.
There's a ginger haired boy that lives across my street
I can't help but wonder what it's like to look that wonderful
He doesn't smile as much but he's nice. I wish I looked half as pretty.
There's a ginger haired boy that lives across my street
He seems sad and I wish I had enough courage to talk to him.
There's a ginger haired boy that lives across my street
Today I tried talking to him
He didn't seem so pretty anymore
In fact he terrified me
I hate the new me
I detest her
But everyone else loves her
Because she's funny
Dumb and smart
Romantic and cute
Down to earth and nice
But I hate her
Because she's nothing like me
She's arrogant and naive
She hates being shy, paranoid. Ugly
She hates being the real me.
Heels and pumps
Fillers and botox
Layers of make up
Extensions and highlighters
Piercings and nail fixes
Yet I still feel like the ugly, short and skinny me.
Am I not just the perfect wife
I quietly watched you play your game while I sat in a corner and drank up my sorrow
I'm sorry my love
I just got tired of your games
I grew tired of you
Rest in peace my beloved
A shot of my pain
A glass of my love
Shatters of that same glass
Pour the wine out
It's probably my last with you.
Insecurities coated in pride
Self-defence veiled self-destruct.
Shallow breaths
Frail touchs
Silent words
Saddened smiles
Worthwhile hopes
The loved one
Now gone.
Caravan parks and cigarette nights
Shattered glass once crystal clear
Vineyards and gardens
Empty out the wine
Fill it with some liquor
Detox and rehab
Intoxicated, hallucinogens
Heartbroken's club.
There is the sun and then it's gone
The rain and it's all gone
Without a trace
There's the bright stars now fading
And there's our love
I fear it'll fade too.
So close yet so far away
So beautiful yet so hidden
So strong yet so powerless
Kept in the shade
Left to be forgotten
Where is the light that once shone so bright
The words that once calmed seas
Can't beauty come out of ashes.
