It disturbs me
How you are able
To keep me in this cage of confusion
I wait anxiously
You bring me scraps
Feed me this beautiful illusion
I am stronger
Because you are my weakness
I am better off
Left alone
Not to crumble
Not to fade
Not to cling
Not to hope
Not to die
I am sealing these cracks
With tears that I will
Never let you taste
This cage
This face
This disregarded flame
Burns
With or without you

You use your words
To break me
And you don't care
And that's okay
I'll never ever listen
To another worthless
Word you say
I'll smile through the pain
Never ever
Let you in again
You used me
Just to feed your ego
Foolish pride
I'll never let you see through
These shitstained eyes
You've got everything
And all I got were lies
So I bid you farewell
And don't you worry girl
I'll never tell

Sometimes the heart is just wrong
Dead wrong
Listen to something else

I hold on to every single letter
Of every little message
I take a deep breath
Respond in
Hopeful honesty
There's something different
In the connection between us
You and I both know
That there is no going back
To whatever normal was
There is no going back
To the days when we'd pass
Each other and not feel that
Magnetic electric current
That flows between us
It exists inside and beyond us
Pulling us toward as destroyers
To create a new life as one
Shall we fall together in this eternal dive? Lock your hands in mine and don't look back at the flames as the world burns
Turning the past to ashes
Disregard the echoes of the voices
They will fade
Disregard the judgmental looks
Of those that do not,  could not understand
Keep your eyes steady
On mine
This is our life,
Im ready to jump
I'm just waiting for you

There may be 10,000 ghosts in this old house,
But they can't stop me from dreaming about you

It's the burden in my brown eyes.          
Gives me away
I've developed this act for you
Everyday formulating idiosyncrasies
Cool,  calm,  classy and clever
That's what turns you on
Yet,  my brown eyes give me away
I exude a quite confidence
Never letting you see the cracks
And when you pull away
I pull away farther
You hate that and I love that it always draws you back in
Every now and then though
You catch me in a gaze
I forget everything
The game stops
And there's a silent revelation
My brown eyes give me away

It's keeping me up tonight
Wondering what you'll
Say tomorrow
Another dagger to my heart
Or perhaps worse
Nothing at all
