Air seeps in sharply
Eyes shut tightly
This time won't be like the last
I am more than that
I am worth something to this world
However insignificant my life is in the universe
I am necessary
I am needed
Now is the time to start over again
I can do this
I am capable of whatever I want to do
I exhale
My eyes have opened for the first time

Things Will Be Different Now
I'm
more
than
just
your
secret
Hidden
away
in
the
depths
of
the
darkest
shadows
On
this
planet
of
lies
and
oblivion
more
than
just
your
secret
Hidden
away
in
the
depths
of
the
darkest
shadows
On
this
planet
of
lies
and
oblivion

Wishing on a Summer Star
So delicate and yet so strong
They twinkle passionately
Tiny like field mice
Bright like a child's face on Christmas morning
Glowing more powerfully as darkness swallows the sun
Piercing through the black veil of the night
Hopefully peering down upon us
As we wishfully gaze up at them
They twinkle passionately
Tiny like field mice
Bright like a child's face on Christmas morning
Glowing more powerfully as darkness swallows the sun
Piercing through the black veil of the night
Hopefully peering down upon us
As we wishfully gaze up at them

These Thoughts Keep Me Awake
You ripped me up and tore me apart with your teeth
You spit out my feelings and flushed them down the toilet
You kidnapped my soul and threw it away in the trash
I've only ever tried to understand you
I've only ever shown you love and respect
You've taken it all away like a bad game of hide-and-seek
I've given you a million and half chances to make it up to both me and them
Now I'm done
You spit out my feelings and flushed them down the toilet
You kidnapped my soul and threw it away in the trash
I've only ever tried to understand you
I've only ever shown you love and respect
You've taken it all away like a bad game of hide-and-seek
I've given you a million and half chances to make it up to both me and them
Now I'm done

Dance
The light pierces my skin
Unconsciously my body moves like a machine
The notes flow through my bones
A sea of faces gaze upon us
The nerves fly away with wings of adrenaline
And the worries of the world sink the floorboards
The music wraps itself around my soul
Earth no longer seems to exist
This strong stage binds to my fragile heart
It feels as though I am dreaming
Unconsciously my body moves like a machine
The notes flow through my bones
A sea of faces gaze upon us
The nerves fly away with wings of adrenaline
And the worries of the world sink the floorboards
The music wraps itself around my soul
Earth no longer seems to exist
This strong stage binds to my fragile heart
It feels as though I am dreaming

Rest in Peace
Too many young souls
Are recklessly destroyed
On these streets
Too many bright eyes
Are put to rest
Before it's their time to sleep
Too many warm hearts
Are suddenly stopped
When they have so much to beat for
Too many things happen
That we can't explain
That we don't understand
And we can only pray that it doesn't happen again
Are recklessly destroyed
On these streets
Too many bright eyes
Are put to rest
Before it's their time to sleep
Too many warm hearts
Are suddenly stopped
When they have so much to beat for
Too many things happen
That we can't explain
That we don't understand
And we can only pray that it doesn't happen again

Insomnia
I
stay
awake
so
late
at
night
to
try
healing
these
wounds
but
instead
I
think
I'm
just
creating
new
ones.
