Forgotten

You are not forgiven
Just forgotten
I wish you could say no
I wish you had said no
I wish you could have shown control when the request came that asked for more
When did the words you spoke begin to hide what you knew was true?
Hiding behind leaves that clearly fell from every tree
Naked, in front of me, the sugar drips onto your breast
The bite you took won’t help you see until you know what pain can be
I wish you could say no
I wish you had said no
I wish you could have shown control all those times you showed it all
You are not forgiven
Just forgotten

Get Out
03:31

Sick
Twisted inside out
I liked to vomit my own self out
I can’t
recall
Where I got so fucking lost
I’d like to vomit myself out
I can’t
I can’t
Get out of my head
Sick
No way out
Trapped inside my fucking head
I’d like to vomit my guilt
out
I can’t
I can’t
I did those things
I did those things
Get out of my head

Ten

My heart hurts in so many ways
One for each time you lied
One for each time I looked away
Walked away from my vows
Turned my back
on everything
I lied every night
with every text I sent
To my lover
To my secret friends

Everything I've Wanted
03:24

My murder was a mystery
No one knew where I had been
I needed more and I found it all
Dripping down her face as tears
I’ve had everything I’ve wanted and yet that’s not enough
I’ve had drugs, women, fun and stared at clouds in the sun
I’ve seen pain, I’ve seen fear, been in cars where men had guns
I’ve been everything to some and nothing much for the other ones
Never hungry never ill, always pleasure for a thrill
I’ve had everything I’ve wanted and yet that’s not enough
Never cared what was wrong, didn’t care to do what’s right
Always living for myself, and yet that’s not enough
Her father’s hands grabbed me by the throat
“I want you to burn like she hurt”
We fell onto the floor where I had taken her
As he beat me to a pulp I could only ask for more

Anonymous Confessions
03:43
|
|

Have you ever met a vampire?
I stand before you as proof they exist
I have gone so far as to take life from a young star that fell to Earth
How can I pull apart
The different ways I broke her heart?
The ways I covered it up?
Lucifer has left, everything feels empty and lost
No one cares to hear the story
No one knew they witnessed the fall

Do Anyhting
04:00

Speak, deceive
Memories are built
Not lived
Speak, deceive
Erase, delete
Choose the best memory
Write a story
Speak, deceive
Erase. Delete.
I’ll do anything
Rewrite my lines, reinvent myself
I’ll try anything
Next to you or far away
I buried everything
Underneath these lines
and others too
I hid everything
The fallen stars
and the cruelty
Do anything
Memories are built,
Not lived
Rearrange, erase, delete
Choose the best memories
Write stories
Speak, deceive
Erase. Delete.

I Want You
04:49

How did those words feel?
Did they make your stomach turn?
Somehow in between
They’re not true, but they’re not lies
The mirror speaks the truth
I am him
I did those things
The truth is I want you
It’s not wrong
but it’s not right
It makes me sick to know I'm in their lives
It sinks in my soul like a stone
I want it all painted black
So I can run, so I can hide
Your love is dirty
Full of things I can't say
Exciting yet a cliché
Embarrassing to stay
Fuck it, I can't stay away
Shipwrecked on the shore
We’re castaways of tragedies
Hiding truths we know
Secret words erased with time
Stumbling back and forth
We drag them down, we make them drown
It’s to enough to lie
We have to make everything burn
I want you

One and Only

If I
Could believe
a single word I say
Then I
could believe
The promises you’ve made
But I
know us too well
to be so naive
trust another
Human being
Then I
Could believe
the things you say
But I
can’t believe a single promise you’ve made
Because I know we're all
in too deep
Every time we lose our minds
Committing crimes for love
Or is it lust? Am I in too deep?
Has this penetrated too far?
Have we gone over the top?
Have we crossed the line too many times?
Is it now our time to fall?
Look across the landscape
at the victims of our love
Is this what we wanted?
Are we confortable with blood?
Wannabe criminals
Your middle class
has got you down
Your middle age
has got you down
You’re middle of the road
with nowhere to go
and everybody knows you’re

Paint It Black
03:47

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colours anymore, I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby, it just happens everyday
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and must have it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colours anymore, I want them to turn black

Black
03:17

An alien trying to pass as human
It hurts so much to feel so removed
I'm sorry to all for being alive
I'm sorry I hurt you, I guess this will too
Backed myself into a wall
Let go of my last best friend
Sometimes the start is worth the end
I'll let you all know my friends
Speak your mind
This might be the last time
Speak your mind
My blood will wash all my crimes
