Voice.

I wonder how you feel
Being a voice in my head
Roaming and roaming
No life to be had
You live for me,
I live like you
I wonder what it feels like
To be useless too
Does it hurt your eyes
The pain you feel
Spread to your veins
So you know it's real
You're that voice telling me
What I need, need?
What I want, want?
Why I bleed, bleed.
I wonder how you feel
Being a voice in my head

Fake.

Fake a laugh
Fake a frown
Fake it up
Fake it down
Fake a high
Fake a low
Fake it deep
Fake a show
Fake a look
Fake a stare
Fake a worry
Fake a care
Fake yourself
Fake a mind
Face yourself?
Nor have I
Fake the day
Fake your walk
Fake your ways
Fake your talk
I'll fix you up
You'll fake it down
I'll build you up
You push me round
Oh, this cycle won't stop now

Eat

Save me some 380
Save me some to save me
Save me what you can give
Save me so I don't have to live
They say what doesn't kill you
Makes you stronger
Well I've found words
Stay with you longer & longer
Than expected
Save me some 380
Save me some to save me
Save me what you can give
Save me so I don't have to live
Save me.

Alone

Say it again, say the silence
The same old nothing, that makes me violent
I tug on my voice and scream no sound
No matter what I do, no one comes around
She let me linger here alone

Mirrors

Stained glass reflections

Sharp pieces of my skin

Brain washed lessons

A glossy part of me

I'm surrounded by a broken fun-house maze

I see people I've never seen

So many just like what I've been

But I can't look into those mirrors

Because I don't see myself

When I wanna break like glass

All I need is to look ahead

Into your mirrors

And I shatter on the spot

Wrists

Show me your wrists

Oh, did I cross the line?

I was hoping they would match mine

Forgive me, babe

I didn't mean to bring up

Past wounds

But those show through

Today

Teenager

Attention, Attention

She needs it for a minute

She's got a lot to read up on

She barely wants to skim it

The book is life

And her teacher's barely living

So pardon if she's slacking

She don't know what she's been missing

Belief

You've been imaginary my whole life

I try to believe you're by my side

I guess I can feel you in my soul

You fight hard to let me know

But I...

I'll never know for sure

My belief

Broken Heart

Don't take this the wrong way

Please, I never wanted it to happen

Don't take this like a hard it

Because you wanted it

You wanted to be the reason I'm in ruins

You wanted to be the one who could tear me down

Congratulations

It's done.

Walk Away

A path so dark

In my plain sight

Wanting to cross over

With every step I take I can't find

No one, no one

So should I have to walk away?

To get through this pain

M.U.S.E.

So you're feeling down on yourself?
Take a pill, before you got the prescription
So you're making life a living hell?
Take a break, before you make a condition
Out
Of
It.
Bad
Habits
Tearing you down!


Living off my life
My bad advice
But you only come around
To bring me down
And Put you up above
Na uh - Na uh
Who do you think
You are?
My Un-Seen Enemy

Actor

I'm all acted out
But you're begging me for more
I had no spaces for faked faces
On my player's wall
Why do I have to be a so faux
To get your attention
I'd like to complain, sir
But I haven't learned my lesson

But I'll lie for you
I'll be what you want
I don't know who I am
So this face I'll flaunt
I'll lie for you
I'll play that little part
When it comes to telling truths
I don't know where to start

You Know

My mind has always been beyond my years
My thoughts linger longer than any downfall of tears
And I remember things, I probably shouldn't even know
And I don't build up walls, just stages for my soul

You used to say you know
Well did you know that?
I thought you had a knack
You might have to take back
Everything you thought was fact
You used to say you know
Well did you know me?
Truth be told
You always used to look right through me
Well did you know that?
You never knew me

Quote

I'm not following anyone's footprints I found in the sand, I've made my own way this far and if my tracks just happen to walk the same path as yours, it's because we're both not letting anything stand in our way...

Stare.

Countless stares,
Never been prepared for this kind of show
They've wasted names
And set their filters for high, I'd rather low
I could give them reasons to
Dislike the games I play
I could rig the pride they knew
To simply fade away
Along with me, the hopeless

Stop looking over here please
I can't take the heat of your eyes
Stop spending all your time on me
I've lived a life of lies
You can't see through me
So you see me straight through
Stop looking at me
I can't look at you

Before I knew

It's been such a long time

Haven't seen your eyes

Hate that last look you gave me

Hate to see your pain

I could feel your heart break in time

You made me choose

Either way I'd lose

Why can't I just...

Why can't you just...

Turn back time

Everything became so much deeper

I never thought you'd make weaker

By feeling more alive

And some of my heart wants you

And all of yours wants me

But I just can't see passed his eyes

And I wish I could feel your embrace

It could take the pain away

I've never been one to

Choose for myself

My heart makes me put others first

So when you ask me to

Think about me and you

I can't see it through

Now he's back

In my arms again

I still wonder just how you are

I know you claim to love me

But how can I believe

When you've abandoned me

As a friend

And some of my heart wants you

And all of yours wants me

But I just can't see passed his eyes

And I wish I could feel your embrace

It could take the pain away

I've never been one to

Choose for myself

My heart makes me put others first

So when you ask me to

Think about me and you

I can't see it through

Some of my heart

All of your heart

But I just

Don't make me choose

Either way I lose...

That Moment

I have no in between,

I either wear my heart on my sleeve

Or it's hidden in seems

So why can't you just stay away from me,

keep trying to put it back into place

Hun, I'm not your puzzle

and this heart won't fit in that space.

You say you know what's best for me

But how can't that be when life ain't that easy

You'll lead me down the right path

As long as I give up all the dreams I ever had

And I don't know if I can

Babe, not until I've had that moment.

Go.

You said you wouldn't leave me, but there you go

Without a second glance

You've left me with cold hands

Couldn't take a second to let me know

You said you wouldn't leave me, but there you go

Nervous.

My heart is racing 1,000 miles
Per minute might I add
I just figured you should know
What you triggered in me

I could trip on my own guts
If you'd like
Because I feel like they're ready to spew
Over and out

I can't do this alone
I'll fail
Of that, I have no doubt.

The Fear

Strike me quickly
You rattle snake
I know they lie
When they say you're slow
You hit with bricks
Not soft like snow
I'm not ready for the blow

For the fear to come in
And take away my life
For the fear to consume
And become my only vice
For the fear is not a choice
It's only what's right

The fear is getting to me tonight.

Stand up

Ha!

Did you think that I would come this far?

Did you think that I would do all this

For nothing? No, no.

Did you think you would just get your way?

Did you think I went through my mistakes

For nothing? No, no.

I've made up my mind

I've taken my time (Oooh)

And I can't stand for this anymore

I'll break my wrists to get up off this floor.

Smiling (lyrics)

An ever present optimist
In the midst of a crisis
I can't handle this
You look on the bright side
Well how the hell can you see
Through the bright lights
If everything's against your side
I don't get how you still wanna survive

Why are you smiling?
When everything's breaking down
Why are you smiling?
Is there something, I'm missing around
Here
All around me is falling to pieces
All around me I can't see a single thing
But you're smiling.
