i need some glue to put back the piecesmy broken heart can't stand on its ownbut i can use some water to clear my throatand sing these songs about passion and love!

how do i say goodbye?with waving hands and swollen eyesor open arms or open mindsim so scaredi forgot how to breathei dont want the summer to endthese seasons change too fasti dont want to die todayi dont want to die, alone.

close your eyesyou are almost asleepin my armspossessed by speakingin tonguesi coughed my throatthrough my lungsbloodied and beatingshe once told me"her game of life wasn't life"i cant hold it togetheri know its hardif piece by pieceyou block the clockand then your beastit rages onit wont repairits too far goneit'll always be therewere going to speak in rhythm to the beat of our hearts I'm tired of hearing thisits time to take my ownI'm not here

skeletons or bonesI count the dead with my fingersand hearing aboutall the pillsin our bodies we are lesser thanwe've been stuck in a coma for the past 18 yearsand I wanna stand grounded in the soilI'm scared to death of whats to become of this hopefull messwhen you liein your homeI hope its comfortablewhen you liein your graveI hope its comfortable(we fall from the sky, to the ocean, in the fire, and we lie in the ground)truth be told, I'm not a f*cking liar and I can't stand next to these graveyards

and the sea will part for usand as we walk across the sand, I am home

6.

When the tree falls in the forestIll be the one to make a soundAnd I will look at her limbsThere’s so much dead in her eyesi am too much in the sun.And the branchesReach out to the sunThey block me in the shadeYou are not the only oneTake your timeAnd hold my handI’m the oneWho’ll be there for you
