I hide behind these walls, I hide away my soul
Yet one look from you I fall, one look and you stole
What was never mine and has always been yours
You're good, you're good, I whisper as it gets worse
We're not meant to be, you made me happy
We're not meant to be, a footnote in your story
We're not meant to be, all I want is an apology
We're not meant to be, please tell me why you left me.
You loved me.
I didn't.
I love you.
You don't.
We keep on missing each other. Can we meet somewhere in the middle someday?
She's such a sweet rose
The bright spring, in a dark, cold winter
She's all I can remember
She has that angelic grace
That saved me from my demons and monsters
But maybe it'll be best to forget her
For all her smiles,
Her laugh, her voice that used to make me better
All faded away the day she chose her lover.
My waters are murky and most people are afraid to swim the unknown. Don't try to go in if you don't plan on staying because I can't guarantee that I can let you out. Don't try me and test the waters. I don't need that. If you want, you can observe my waves from the shore. Don't dip, don't sail. I can't give you a safe passage. You might get shipwrecked. We will end up both broken. You will sink and you might be able to salvage your pieces but I know, I know you'll never be the same. And you'll blame me and I will say "I've warned you". If you're looking for a thrill, please not me. I can't promise to let you go when you became tired of the chaos I bring. I can't control my self. I'm toxic. So please, please just stay away. If you only want to experiment if you can fix the broken, cure a person, don't, don't, don't. I'm telling you now that you can't. So please, I don't want to be responsible for another disaster, for another nightmare. So stay away, stay away. Stay safe, I don't want you to regret me. I don't want to you to have that bitterness in your mouth whenever you think of me, because all I'll remind you of is wreckage and that piece of yourself I've robbed you of. I don't want let anyone down again. So leave me alone, and I'll let you be. Let us not hurt each other. I won't want to take a piece of your soul just because I have none.
My heart clenches as if it can still feel
Can still discern what's right, what's real
But I know better, it was torn
The day it fell for you, I was reborn
I can still feel the phantom beating
I can still hear the echoes of footsteps receding
The day it fell for you, I was reborn
That was the last day in my sleeve, it was worn.
I can freely admit that I didn't deserve them. Not then. Not with all the pain I've caused them.
I just checked this out, and wow, thank you for introducing me to such a beautiful song. It does remind me of our dynamic. She was love of course, and I was hate.
I knew I loved you then, but I didn't tell
You've only fallen and I wasn't well
Cold, cold days with arms wrapped mine
Flowers were wilting, and you're looking for a sign
I want to be better, you want me to be yours
I keep screaming, screaming 'till my voice is hoarse
But you didn't know, didn't know 'cause you were deaf and blinded
I was paralyzed, trying to be found, you're lost, we're both stranded
I was rage, you were kindness, we made a home out of lies
Second chances, third ones, a promise that flies
A pair of wings growing while one withers away
I will never deserve you, I didn't ask for you to stay.
It is my tragedy to have you as my enemy
Once upon a time, you loved me dearly
Sweeter than I prefer until it turned bitter
Everything soured, words could've been phrased better
But once a year, like an eclipse, we'll be back
Trying to touch those hands, tiptoeing around the cracks
You'd pour salt in my wounds and I'd offer you a smile
It is my tragedy, to have a taste of you for a while.
People say love would either save or destroy
I thought I have a choice, to hurt or to enjoy
But I met you and I experienced both
You opened my eyes, yet you never kept your oath
You saved me from drowning in the endless sea
But when I fell, you weren't there to catch me
So now, I'm lying with my broken pieces in the ground
Wishing you've let me stay lost, never to be found
People also say that when love is true
It will give you hope for something new
Yet my heart breaks every time it beats for you
Tell me, have you lied to me too?
Suddenly, I've realized that I'm plainly stupid
To let myself be stricken by mythical cupid
Now, my heart will always have a void, a remembrance from you
I have only loved once and you never even knew.

I want to write everything that doesn't make sense
About you, the moonlight, the fence
But even if I did manage to put them into words
It won't be different, still the same repetitive chords.
I take off the hatred, take off the love
Until I am empty, breathless and numb
And I lay beside you, under the stars
We're kids again, ignorant of the wars
Yet your hand, I can no more hold
You used to radiate warmth, now it's cold
And I expect you to recount my mistakes, where I went wrong
But all I could hear is a familiar melody, you're humming our song
So I reach out and laces our fingers, this is not the end
We're just two kids with broken hearts, we could start again.
