What if tomorrow you wake up and I'm not here anymore
If the person you turned to couldn't turn to you
And became just a memory
Fading faster and faster.
In a few months you can't hear my laugh anymore
In a year my voice is gone
And years after you won't even remember my face.
I'll just be that girl who said see you tomorrow
Even though I knew tomorrow would never come

I miss how much I cared about the future
Concerned about how the world saw me
And how I saw myself
But lately I'll admit that I've grown too numb
To care about the person others see when they look at me

I miss how things were,
When I thought I knew what was next
When I thought tomorrow was guaranteed
And could tell myself that things will only get better
Without blatantly lying through my teeth

I miss your laughter, still echoing in my halls
But its too late to say that I wanted you to stay
Here I am, wishing time to turn back
So I could tell myself to hold on just a little longer
So I can stop being filled with so much regret

Darling you were my demise, there is no doubt
******* back the lines until my eyes are dead
Powder princess doped up and checked out

My minds grown foggy as I go through a bout
of self prescribed destruction, slicing skin painted red
Darling you were my demise there is no doubt

Forced insomnia upon my black eyes I shout
Wasting away to bones scars, blood and meds
Powder princess doped up and checked out

Trying to dissect my corrupted mind they scout
for some innocent piece I've long since shed
Darling you were my demise, there is no doubt

They try to save me from snow white's route
but It's too late to try, the monsters been fed
Powder princess doped up and checked out

We're just seventeen and we're going ******* hard
Hanging downtown, pulling out our fake cards
Sneaking out on weekdays, life is such a chore
Babe you only live once so go crazy

We fall in love for a night then do it all again
Burning cars to the ground and it's only 10
Lying on the street covered in glitter and glass
Streaking in the park and never going to class
Babe you only live once so go crazy

I leave my heart out in the open
letting anyone toss it around
lending it out to anyone who wants it
and well, I never learn.
Time after time they bring it back damaged
bruised and cut and beyond repair
each time I say 'never again'
take in my heart, nurse it back to health
mending the veins and letting the bruises fade
After some time though, I think 'one more time'
and put my heart back on display
only to have it broken again.

I was so numb before I met you
Feeling what I was told to feel and nothing more
Then I saw you and my nerves caught fire
Shivers racing down my spine
My heart skipping beat after beat
Engulfing my body in this summer warmth
Wrapping me up in this glossy haze
I replayed those moments where I caught your gaze
I saw your pupils grow and your hairs raise
Then you reached for my hand and that's when I knew
You felt it too

You've knocked me down and out
Shot your gun and pierced my soul
Forced me to my knees to pray and plead
That I'm not the only one that feels this way
Like I'm drowning inside but I'm fine on the out
Dreaming about a day I'll never wake up
Making deals with the devil so I'll get what I want
I've lost myself, I've lost my mind, I've lost my soul;
