Ricochet

She was only a girl, and she dared to think differently
And her dreams were just dissolved tragedies
She was young and no one had asked for her name
In her past, she screamed at them helplessly
But they brought her misery endlessly
In this life you follow the path of the sheep, or you stand on your feet
Could it be wrong to stare, out of the slightest care
For a man that’s put you down everyday comes and you try to remain sane
Could it suffice to say that he has had his way, or should his actions richochet and hit him right into the face?
She was only a girl, but she grew into something new
It was time, she knew what she had to do
Pay them back for all of the things that they did
And she changed, her actions were radical
A loaded gun with a trigger to soon be pulled
In this life, she’d only succeed when she made others bleed, made them fall to their knees
And she’d sit back, abashed
Watching her pain being paid back
Eyes wide, straight back, she would stay
Could it be wrong to stare, out of the slightest care
For a man that’s put you down everyday comes and you try to remain sane
Would it suffice to say that he has had his way, or should his actions richochet and hit him right into the face?

The splinter of a dragon tree
Has stuck me in the heart
The energy it gives to me
Inspiring and smart
My hands are stained with ink and blood
My tongue is going numb
This phase I know will surely pass
But now we can be young
I don’t care for criticism
It’s opaque, leads to collision
I just wanna be with her
Golden syrup connaisseur
Brings me hope but doesn’t know it
She’s my fairy, I’m the poet
I just wanna be with her
Golden syrup connaisseur
And everything starts making sense
When I look at her innocence
She is a mystery I’m willing to discover
When she walks by I’m filled with doubt
A riddle I can’t figure out
I don’t care for criticism
It’s opaque, leads to collision
I just wanna be with her
Golden syrup connaiseur
Brings me hope but doesn’t know it
She’s my fairy, I’m the poet
I just wanna be with her
Golden syrup connaisseur
I don’t care for criticism
It’s opaque, leads to collision
I just wanna be with her
Golden syrup connaiseur
Brings me hope but doesn’t know it
She’s my fairy, I’m the poet
I just wanna be with her

All Is Vanity
04:10

You’ll look at yourself in the mirror
And disregard the rusted stains
Disrupt my peace as you come nearer
A poison tainted-remedy
You stand by
And lie
You suffocate my trust
On the wall you are a fly
Whoah
You stand by
And lie
Weeks and years and you’re the same inside
Spit your pride and go away
You’re sucked in your own desperation
Nose up and barely getting through
It’s hard to breathe under the tension
But still you manage to come to
You stand by
And lie
You suffocate my trust
On the wall you are a fly
Whoah
You stand by
And lie
Weeks and years and you’re the same inside
Spit your pride and go away
Tried and hardly true, I’m done with you, I’m done with you, I’m done
Tried and hardly true, I’m done with you, I’m done with you, I’m done
Tried and hardly true, I’m done with you, I’m done with you, I’m done
Tried and hardly true, I’m done with you, I’m done with you, I’m done
Tried and hardly true, I’m done with you, I’m done with you, I’m done
Tried and hardly true, I’m done with you, I’m done with you, I’m done
Tried and hardly true, I’m done with you, I’m done with you, I’m done
Tried and hardly true, I’m done with you, I’m done with you, I’m done!
You stand by
And lie
You suffocate my trust
On the wall you are a fly
Whoah
You stand by
And lie
Weeks and years and you’re the same inside
Spit your pride and go away
You stand by
And lie
You suffocate my trust
On the wall you are a fly
Whoah
You stand by
And lie
Weeks and years and you’re the same inside
Because all is vanity
Out through my eyes now you can see

Fall
02:47
|

A million words I’ve spoken without an outcome
For they were words I hadn’t shared with anyone
And although time it passes, I remain the same
Locked on the inside of my head I go insane
That is when I fall
If I never wander I’ll never know at all
If I never wander I’ll never know at all
I’ve counted a thousand strands of grass impatiently
And I’ve watched the paint dry off this wall of insecurity
I often try to scream though I cannot be heard
Stentorian voices choking me on every word
That is when I fall
If I never wander I’ll never know at all
If I never wander I’ll never know it
If I never wander I’ll never know it
If you never wander you’ll never see it all

Midnight Sun

What have we here
Another smile of yours that opens up doors
Speak in my ear
And make me feel like I can soar on your sweet words
Just call me dead
Because you stop my heartbeat when you bit your lips
Lover, soon to be
Uncage me, set me free
Fire, soon to set
You’ll burn me, I bet
What have you done
Another way to make me lose control and break
Midnight sun
Like rays of light that cause my whole world to ignite
All black and white
Everything around me turns to when you leave
Lover, soon to be
Uncage me, set me free
Fire, soon to set
You’ll burn me, I bet
I bet…
I bet…

Better

Hey,
I think I found a new escape
Deep in a world that I can relate to
Where everything is unlike you know
Debate
To whether I should contemplate
Think about the things that push me out of my way
Let’s get this straight
No boundaries
Come join the fun with me
Just close your eyes and see
The one place you’ll be free
Well,
Dipping my thoughts in this inkwell
I’m painting a picture of my feelings
While from the ceiling hand fixations that I cannot seem to reach
How,
How can I wait, the time is now
I’ll teleport after I bow
End this dramatic comedy you tend to call reality
No boundaries
Come join the fun with me
Just close your eyes and see
The one place you’ll be free
Let’s go somewhere better
Let’s see something better
Take me to a state of
Relaxation mega
Let’s go somewhere better
Let’s see something better
Enter in a state of
Relaxation mega!
No boundaries
Come join the fun with me
Just close your eyes and see
The one place you’ll be free
No boundaries
Come join the fun with me
Just close your eyes and see
The one place you’ll be free
