:::Jagged Cure:::

I feel helpless

Thinking of your sight

I feel reckless

Because after more I might

Show my weakness

Anyone of them

My commitment is that

In my life

I don’t want to lose myself to feeling

Like my actions don’t have any impact on your healing

I want

Everything to work

I feel like there’s no cure

I feel hopeful

That I have the will

I feel beaten

The temperature is still

Turning slowly

In the dead of night

My commitment is that

In my life

I don’t want to lose myself to feeling

Like my actions don’t have any impact on your healing

I want

Everything to work

I feel like there’s no cure

I want you

:::The Window:::

Feel

Like you don’t

Understand

The way that it goes

Try

To feel love

When you’re crushed

And overwhelmed

From the way

That you feel alone

And the air

Chokes your lungs

And you know

That the window

Of time will pass us by

Fierce

Like the tip

Of a sword

Piercing my skin

Clear

Like the ice

Drenched in steam

And fear in between

Light a fire

To burn

All of my thoughts

Into one

:::Wasted:::

The day starts off with ease

And ice covers the streets

My priority now

Is to feel the peace

Eight stops on the El

I finally ring the bell

I wonder if he’ll tell that

My right pocket is swelled

I got myself in this predicament

All I need to take is one more hit

Four more bottles and I’ll feel lit

Wasted

Several hours pass

The feeling never lasts

The night slips way too fast

The pictures tell the past

We went through the whole stash

Because everything is cashed

We didn’t know how to ration

It all went in a flash

I got myself in this predicament

All I need to take is one more hit

Four more bottles and I’ll feel lit

Wasted

:::Breaking Up:::

I’m sick of having to defend

The shit I hear from all your friends

But that’s not why we have come to an end

I’m sick of wasting all my nights

You never cared if I was right

Drama fed your appetite

I’m not making up

For breaking up

I’m not making up

For breaking up

With you

I’m sick of your piss attitude

It makes me feel like I was used

My time with you is forever bruised

I[‘m sick of all the jealousy

It hardly gives me room to breathe

With me now gone I hope you’ll see

I’m not making up

For breaking up

I’m not making up

For breaking up

With you

I know that there was some good in you

But you only looked out for yourself

I know that we were not destined to be

So…

I’m not making up

For breaking up

I’m not making up

For breaking up

With you

:::Frozen Memories:::

The touch of winter

Brings back

Tidal waves of

Frustration

I walk out pretending

That it’s all good

When really I feel I’m

Misunderstood

The illusion

Is transparent

This illusion of truth

I cradle these moments

In denial

It doesn’t take a lifetime

To see the signs

Succumbing slowly

There’s no way

To isolate this

Choking pain

Frozen memories

Is all I have

:::Circles Overlap:::

Sentiments arise when we are kept alone

The feeling burns

Circles overlap and now I know that we

Were meant to be

Joined together

In harmony

Disguising all my eagerness

I wonder what you think of this

Thinking of my other tries

I just need to look in your eyes

Surprise

I’m lost, for words that do

Justice to your beauty

Losing focus of these numbers

I never thought it’d come to this

Some things happen for a reason

This is not coincidence

Years ago, I believed

That you would rescue me

This won’t hold me down

:::The Moments:::

The moments

You walk

Pass me

I think of you

I feel you

In my heart

In my soul

:::Words and Lines:::

All I see are lines, when you see the words

There’s something about you that gives me the chills

The last time I go to sleep tonight

Is the last time I think of you

All those days that once symbolized

Now I wish they would be

Forgotten anniversaries

I saved the tape from the machine

Just to hear your voice again

I wish it was easy to fall in love

Then maybe I would feel happy just for awhile

Since the day I met you I felt some hope again

All the words I’ve longed for now make some sense

I am making a promise to myself

That I’ll never break your heart

And I’ll be your guardian

I want to be the person you

See yourself committed to

I want to be the person who

Makes you feel alive

:::Honesty:::

Maybe it’s the lack of confidence

Or being alone

Maybe it’s personality

That made this go wrong

It’s a question of standards

On either side

Losing motivation

After I tried

Honesty

For the first time

Finally

It’s off my mind

Always saying the wrong thing

I’m trying too hard

Finding all these comparisons

It’s gone too far

It could be the places that I go

It makes me feel like trying no more

Honesty

For the first time

Finally

It’s off my mind

Keep the dream alive.

:::Sacrifice:::

Sometimes I don’t know how hard it would be

To look through your eyes

With all the wasted memories aside

It’s a miracle that you even survived

It makes me numb

To think about the years

You’ve filled your heart

With too many tears

I would give my life

To turn some things away

With your sacrifice

It’s like a brand new day

Sometimes it’s not so easy when you’re closed

But you’ve made me who I am

You always made sure that I had the most

Opportunity to be my own

I appreciate

In more than

A few words

For

The way you are

The way you act

The times you looked over my back

I love you

I love you

:::Fading Faster:::

Fading faster

In your thoughts

I walk right past you

You feel it too

I would regret it

If I shared

All my feelings

With you

It’s because I’m wired

Differently

That makes it so hard

To follow me

One more chance babe

To hear my thoughts

It’s like piercing needles

Dipped in salt

Keeping secrets locked away

Makes me anxious every day

Maybe if I came clean you would stay

Counting backwards

To the times

When we felt awkward

But we felt alive

Rebelling what’s in

To stay apart

We were our own club

From the start

I have to realize

That you’re not convinced with lies

It might take a thousand tries

Or else you’ll say goodbye

Goodbye

:::Drown The Background:::

Another week of missing home

I’m getting used to being alone

Sometimes the feeling’s amplified

And I feel torn up inside

I got my life wrapped in a bag

My body aches from the jet lag

The people here are all diverse

But the waiting makes it worse

Drown the background of all the noise

Drown the background to clear my mind

I don’t know if I will adapt

My closest friends don’t seem to care

My memory plays tricks on me

The morning air now isn’t rare

Drown the background of all the noise

Drown the background to clear my mind

Maybe one day, I will stop with the illusions

And all my thoughts will become sharp without all of this confusion

Come on focus, I don’t have much time to think about the order

But with some patience, and persistence, my mind will be free

Drown the background of all the noise

Drown the background to clear my mind

:::Head On Collision:::

Falling

For You

Is the last thing

I came to do

Your blonde hair

And striking eyes

Gave me no chance

To change my mind

Making the move

Is what nights like this will prove

Feeling sorry for myself

Making the move

Is what nights like this will prove

Maybe I can be with you

Driving

Into you

It’s like a head on

Collision

With your life

And my past

It repeats

All too fast

Making the move

Is what nights like this will prove

Feeling sorry for myself

Making the move

Is what nights like this will prove

Maybe I can be with you

I’m helpless
