two options in life

i’ve seen the darkness of the web
i’ve seen the spider leave its bed
it’s not the suffocation of my mind
it’s the venom they’ve injected over time
i am the liquid mess born to feed your emptiness

empty walls empty space
eyes wide open or shut it’s all the same
empty halls from where i’ve walked
no where i’m wanted so i don’t leave my house
take a left hop in the shower
silence bounces off my tile like a mute choir
get out and let the water pool
a swimming hole for tiny ghouls
all my friends are in my head
or far away where they’ll stay safe

why’d you leave me what did i do
i would do everything for you
i would make myself a fool though i know you are ashamed
i hate who i am now but who’s to blame
and it’s been long since you’ve been in my room
now i sleep on the floor where the covers don’t cover my feet
but i can forget what you look like in my dreams
and i don’t wanna be here i don’t wanna be here
i don’t wanna feel here i don’t wanna feel here
and you’re still not listening and i’m still not learning
but i am done crying because i got so tired of this mess
the thing about love is they’ll tear you down and you won’t stop them
a wrecking ball headed to my brain and i welcomed it anyway

i never wanna drive, but i get lonely and i'm scared to, spend a night
by myself inside this room, can't imagine what it'll be like, living without you
but i would drive all night, if it meant you'd stay by my side, i won't beg you to stay, they all leave me anyway
i never wanna call you, because i wonder if you'd still remember me, when we don't talk
spend the night, only so many hours to obsess about the hours, and i won't need an hourglass to see, our time, is running out
but i will call your bluff, you never meant to stay, but i would leave me too, it won't mean anything living without you
feel the whole world in my jaw, first i feel everything, then i feel nothing at all

you know i'm not happy
01:33
|
|||
|
wear black and stay inside
mourn the fact i’m still alive
it’s no wonder that i scare the kids
i see their joy and i wish i was one of them
maybe it’s the metal in my face
well my best friend says i’m the catch of the day
bury my limbs under giant sweaters
maybe once i get some sleep i’ll finally feel
better

let’s run to california we can live inside the van
we’ll sell art out from the back and we can camp out in the sand
won’t ever have to look at those same chairs we kept out front
forget about the past ‘cause we can leave here when we want
let’s pack up all our shit and move out to the golden state
when i’m too scared to sleep you’ll stroke my hair and stay up late
we’ll grab a bite to eat won’t ever have to cook again
and when it rains, we’ll stay in bed, draw tattoos with stolen pens
and when i’m with you
don’t need the sun
i just want, i just want
you

woke up on the right side of the bed
i fell off once again
there’s blood stains on the floorboards
nothing a little bleach can’t cure
and i’ve been trying my best
to heal everything inside my head
and i will swallow my pride
and tell everyone i love when i’m not alright
‘cause i just haven’t been the same since i was young
but please tell them
i love them
to all my friends, family, and people i have yet to meet in the future: i love you.
to anyone i don't know: this weird chick loves you. say hi. you are not alone.
