Ava Lennon Jan 2021
Yeah it was just like living on a blank page
Just like being stuck in a dark cage
And when all you feel is rage
I just imagine singing up on that stage
Singing to you with my entire heart
My way of saying I never wanna be apart
I'm no longer a spirit, not a spirit of fear
But of power, love, not shedding a single tear
This is me, throughout life, every single year
Thinking of the blank page, dark cage, and the feel of rage
Back to the feeling I don't have, the one I crave
The love I have for you is crashing inside of me like a wave
But you don't see the love I have for you, I pretend to be brave
And on the inside I'm starting to cave
But with you I feel as though I can be saved
And yet I still feel caged
I'm teaching myself not to be dismayed
Ava Lennon Jan 2021
Don't let him blow your life away
Yes that is what I say
But when I saw him I hoped he would be mine anyways
Cuz when you near I feel like...
Yeah I feel like you keep me alive
We may not be at all alike
But you awakened something I thought was lost
The magic of love... But it could cost
It could cost my heart, time, and mind
But I'm still wishing to find
To find the line to find my heart
To find what's keeping us apart
I feel it, something very deep within
Something underneath the skin
Still learning more about you
Every day I see you more and more
Every day I see you, yeah I do
Ava Lennon Jan 2021
Through every strike through every blow
You knock me down yet I always get up
Yeah I'll never ever give up
Satan you will not win
Though you put things in my path
I will not let them in
Even when you are screaming at me in wrath
You make me hurt, you make me angry
Sometimes I'm afraid I'll be here forever
This is really scary
Never dreamed this, never
So let it burn, let it burn
Ava Lennon Jan 2021
How does a moment last forever
How does a story live on
Memories may last forever
But we need to pass them on
Can't express how much I love you
Together were as beautiful as trees in the fall
I'll never forget the time spent with you
I will hang on to it with my all
Dear friends I miss you
You move away and leave me here
Just thinking about you makes me shed tears
Ava Lennon Jan 2021
I don't know what to do but I'm afraid it's true
You made me hurt you made me cry
I feel sad through and through
I know I'm not beautiful but I could try
I could try and change that
How I think about myself won't change things
I need to cutback and that's that
But what to do with my feelings...
I do not know
The truth hurts but who oh who
Who's right and who's wrong
Can't trust myself yeah I know that's true
Ava Lennon Jan 2021
You were looking like an angel
But you really didn't care
I let my heart go, I wasn't careful
Now all I can give you is a cold stare
It is so hard because I have to pretend I don't care
Because I know you don't
I feel like this isn't fair
Yet I can't make you have feelings that won't be
I dream and dream and dream
of falling in love like a fairytale
But I know fairytales are for books
And that dreaming is for sleeping
Still every time I see you boy I feel like I'm dreaming
I can't say it's me not you
Because it is you
What hurts the most is I spent so much time on you
When you didn't care
And now I have to be true
True to myself and to you
I really liked you, and you didn't care
Ava Lennon Jan 2021
Keep my hurt and pain behind a mask
Yeah hiding it can be a task
Only you can really see me
And then there are those hunting me
Which is why I have to leave
I mean 10 years down where will I be
Maybe somewhere in a daze
Maybe hurting like a million blades
Saying what are you missing
I guess it a reminder for me
The voices are talking and I'm listening
Guess I don't care what happens to me
Only the people I care about you see
All our stories down like a book
When all you have to do is look
The ball and chain I'm good being locked to you
Who's really the Queen of broken hearts, yeah who
Maybe me yeah that could be true
Who's gonna let this prisoner out of her cage
Yeah I may not be a sage
But some of the voices are filled with rage
It hurts my ears are ringing
The mask covers my heart the voices are talking and I'm listening
