Six years feeling alone
Six years hating the world
What I learned at all
Is that when I fall I fall hard
"I'm sorry,"
[But] sorry doesn't hold weight
And being accountable doesn't negate
I was a liar; I was a thief; I was a coward

Letters to Alderaan
02:01

Woke up from a daydream just as things were getting good
Woke up to a new year
Why is it so hard to say thank you to the people you care about?
"She had lips begged to be kissed."
Read straight from the back of a book I wish I skipped to the last page. There's too many "yesterdays," but not enough to notice.
But this is how I enter the void.

Open up the river and bleed the words
You can mumble through the waves
And I will ground my birds
I've been trapped upstairs in my favorite hell
They didn't just disappear, they drifted away
Stripped apart piece by piece
They drifted away, they drifted away...
Am I the trigger to what's inside?
Am I the reason that you're sick and tired?
You got left behind, you got left behind...

Birds
01:43
|

|
Birds of a broken feather don't soar, they plunge
Swallowed by pride
Devoured by power
They plunge
Down they go
Never again to span the furthest of horizons
Up against the toughest bout just to sort themselves out
If they shut down, will I shut them out?

There are lovers that don't seem to be in love
But in love with being love
Is that what you think of? [I hope not]
Is that what this family needs?
One less mouth to feed.
Could it be better?
Would it be better?
Should it be better if I were gone?
Tears for dinner at the table.

I can't take back those words my father said
He keeps repeating them again and again,
"She is a sinner lying on her death bed."
I've seen the black and I'm painting red
I won't go back, go back to breaking the body, the bread
Lay your hands upon her head
I've seen the black and I've painted red
I know one day day my son will hate me too
He will break every rule just to find the truth
But the truth is: i have never hated you
i just don't want your throne, you can keep your crown
