Black Light

There's one thing that binds us togetherTragedy paints our souls the same colorI dreamed of one last dance with youTo sing our song to each otherTime is of the essence but easily forgottenAnd when you get older, it doesn't heal all woundsHold me up darling, get the needle and threadStitch my pieces back up, together …

Bermuda

I speak out of character, I think out of turn To find when my mind's awake, my soul still sleeps But I've always felt restless Can't let my bones breathe, they'll gather rust A youthful fear that I can't suppress Wouldn't let my voice speak, always hushed I did everything, everything just to clean me …

Fever Sleep

All we carry is on our backs.Cars crashing into each other lives.We leave the same way we came in.Smother all those cracks we have inside.I wish I could bottle up your fears.Swallow them whole, every last dread.Help you feel intact again.With every last word I've ever said.Like the pieces of you aren't falling out.Onto the …

Trauma Cycle

I used to wonder what it felt like to feel a part of. I gave myself every chance to fail and I blamed myself for all of it. Because that's what I learned. That's the lesson that you taught. A swift hand, broken again. Words that sliced like knives. What I can't understand is the …

Meaning

Tell me which side you're on, I'm on. Did I cross the line, hiding underground? I kept your photograph next to my chest. To let you know that I was still breathing. So tell me what you know about leaving, leaving. Did you leave pieces of you behind without me? I'm feeling used but I …

Specifics

“Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what you do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't.” -Steve Maraboli They said I had to speak from the heart, speak my truth. The other side keeps asking if this is only about me, not you. How …

Familiar Wounds

I find myself back in the same place. Without hope to find some peace. What if I told you I was never meant to stay awake? Eternal sleep should've been mine to carry. It's not that I have some failing in my fixation. The axe looms large over my head. Waiting for me to make …

Foxhole

Take me back to where we once were. Existing in a space between loving and dying. I might get by on the weekends. But I've got myself twisted up bad, been rarely sleeping. These thoughts of you send me spinning. Obsession only breeding more doubt. I keep thinking I'll continue living life half empty. With …

I am Oblivion

I can feel you here. Breaching through my thoughts, crawling in my veins. When every day's the same. I'm tied up, hanging by a thread. Keep pulling me apart, make me unravel. Bathe me in the fire that has consumed my heart. I am spun out. I am wrung out. Waiting for the sun to …

Redline

Down the poison, lick the wounds. I am a ghost, one you will meet soon. It's a new dawn. Where you're the beginning and I'm the end. Kiss the ground because this is the dirt that will bury you. You drove a spike through my family. Burn all the pictures, I've never been more free. …
