November


Skies of gray reflect in your eyes
No matter how hard I try
I just can’t look away
Please turn your back on me
And let me breathe again

This love, it hurts
It burns up inside
How much of my life
Can I destroy?
You have the parts of me no one else does

You say you want love
But that’s a lie
You just want pleasure
And I’m glad to oblige

What can I say to stop the chase?
I’m no good for you
But you have to know
If I could stop time,
I’d stay here forever with you

Leftover shards
Bits of my soul
Torn apart by those before
You opened my eyes
You opened my soul
So I could finally close the door
On a past filled with pain
Without the fear of it returning again

And now here I am
Unbound and whole
Wishing I wasn’t held back once more
Ever so close
Always so far
Falling apart

You

You give me something no one else can give You make me brave So that I think We could make something out of this Life could be so beautiful But I shouldn't think like this And yet, I've never felt so seen So thoroughly understood You meet me where I stand And lead me to a higher ground Just by being you. Your gaze pierces through me You unearth me.

The others

I only change for those who let me But they're too quick to forget me Already out the door As I want to give them more I'm only as happy as I choose But everyone tries to make me They're always trying to please me Instead of telling me what's wrong Am I too sentimental?  I don't ask too much.  Do I sound too certain?  They worry I will get resentful.  All the things they ask of me When in the end, I let it be I've never been one for convincing But they all say I'm a charmer It's only because I run warmer Than what they knew before I don't fake my emotions I'm no manipulator And if you got to know me,  You'd see I'm not a taker I don't fight, I won't fight I just laugh and I cry And I try real hard To make it look I'm alive.  Maybe I hide too much They can never tell my bluff I'm not misunderstood The moment they get me They're not sure if they should. Hope by hope I drip away Fading colour on my lips One by one I lose ...
