To carry on wishing my youth away,
isn't progressive or a means to an end.
By hiding from the chances to change,
would only cause me to fall closer to fate.
I can't seem to find the words,
that you are hoping to hear now.
Which scripted scene will I have to learn,
my lines for next, so I can rest.
If something's are best left unsaid,
then I'll write them down in a bloody red,
'cos I am the song that's stuck in your head,
the one that wishes you would soon turn deaf.
I'd rather be anywhere but here,
I'm always daydreaming of somewhere else.
How long can you stare into space?
How long 'til you admit to all your past mistakes?
When you don't feel you've got a place to go,
just remember it's ok to be alone.
I've fallen in love with loneliness,
so no one gets hurt, emptiness is bliss.
Double standards mask us from empathy.
I'm vulnerable due to my own honesty.
Manically suppressing everything that I feel,
Until I break down and forget how to heal.
