Bubble

-

His bubble 'round my wrist

I said: "Don't get too attached"

Something new 

just got out of something blue

No white picket fence 

something more exciting

We're on borrowed time


but come on over

leave your pretense at home

Tell me all your past

Tell me all about your future

Who can even afford to give a damn 

what people say

I'll make the bad decisions

You make up the excuses


Love runs dry

We both let all the good ones go

Never long enough to be in love 

We only started sleeping just the other week 

Just hold onto me for now 

'cause you make my head spin 

to the sound of your sweet nothings


We bonded over 

lovers that we've loved 

and left 

haunted

wondering
"How long will it take you to regret me too?"

"How long will it take to make a good thing bad?"


It's so easy to mistake a mirror for a soulmate

just put me on you

Say I'm your favorite 

Let's roll, we're rolling stones

What's your game?

I'll never take a right guess


Talk to me

Tell me what sets your soul on fire

Say you miss me one last time

before you pop my bubble

'cause heartbreak doesn't come in seasons 

It comes with lies

I should've known 

Good things never last.

No Man's Peace

 Beer and cigarettes for breakfast  breathing in all your low blows  I smoked myself into a bad mood, momentary lapse of impulse control... That's the way my father made his life a mess An exhibit, not a person I'm just a face in the crowd they'll  never forget about Deception's this way Watching me glow, surrender all control, Are you ready for your benediction? Not the kind of thing to last forever so follow me to the edge of the bridge I'll watch you all go up in flames with it Like the pariah of the village  I burned it all down just to feel its warmth I will be no man's peace, I begin to twist We'll laugh 'till we cry, So make up your signs from above  Soon everything will be a memory. You'll curse me once the thrill expires... So let's dance all night, Try to feel alive. Am I self-destructive or just stupid? All caught up in someone else's business all over It's only a matter of time 'till I run out of things to do Knowledge mig

Survival Mode

 Curiosity used to bug me all the time Too tired to learn on my own I begrudged and hang up the phone  My tv killed my imagination no inspiration, no motivation  lying in bed  living dead It's not sloth, 'cause I tried but... I couldn't find anything to satisfy  I am losing my mind  Is this just a state of mind  if it happens all the time? Sex is fine, just another activity to kill time Another enterprise in the dopamine free line Stuck in my mind, another night that I'll just get covered in slime An observer of my own life An empty chest for a heavy heart  I am numb, completely neutral Searching for a feeling Comfortably uncomfortable  'cause I can run but I can't hide  No worry, no hope Just survival mode I'm simply searching for a feeling  Have I already burnt-out? Both indifferent and hopeful Just like a strong acid in water  I'll dissociate.

 I just sit around waiting for you to come and save my day I'm a little girl that's left her pretense at home I don't think much about the bridges that I burned on my way out I just sometimes wish I wasn't so alone At the edge of any age, any city I've ever been to I hope one day I'll be able to sing the songs I've written Embrace me, stranger I'm getting tired  Somewhere in the way, I forgot I am my own somebody My strong girl act is cracking If I push myself to a breaking point Will there be a diamond waiting? Will there be anyone to hold back my hair? I'm a used cigarette end  just leave me in the cold Everything's on fire but I'll keep on flowing Is wanting to get better ever gonna be enough?
