In this place, we dream a dream. A place society can never reach.
We weave these lies, and they chase it. All because the
media made it. They waste their chances, waste
their lives. They'll climb the rope,
...

I don't know why I ever gave you my love.
I guess I just wanted to believe in someone.
That was enough.
To throw all my trust into someone
...

They say I'm like you
I wouldn't know
Sometimes I see you
Most times I don't
...

Sing me the song of your troubles
And I shall weep mine
We'll have an album wrote
In a short amount of time
...

I sat in silence a lot
People never listened when I talked
People never cared what I thought
Through that grew a soft spot for the underdogs
...

Emotional baggage is a real term.
They don't just leave with a piece of you. You also leave with a piece of them.
Them pieces add up. Them pieces weigh you down.
...

These things I cannot say
I write them all away
If I spoke them out loud
You'd get mad, tell me not to stay
...

Culture
changing, shifting
Evolving, revolving
One circle of society
...

Year after year, you'll find me here
When what I want most is leave.
But years pass by, and man, they fly
However, despite my failed efforts, I do believe...
...

Ocean
Indefinite, blue
Adventuring, cruising, tanning
Seashells, Sand, Sunshine

For he calls me beautiful, even when I look gross...which I will never understand. And he see's what I am not: Perfect. How does he do this? That, I do not know. But beautiful... What are the qualifications? And then it hits me and I am no longer feeling so special.
For anything can contain beauty.
From the blood on a killer's hands, his eyes gleaming with pride.
To the dirt we walk upon, in which we end up buried in.
...

I'll miss the smile that fixed my day.
The kiss on my cheek that made it all okay.
The jokes that drove away all the pain and fears.
The talks that took away my tears.
...

The deeper the thought, the deeper the cut
I don’t know the reason

I really don’t know
...

I just need some sort of an anchor
Something that reminds me of myself
When I'm feeling nervous
When Im needing a little help
...

...

He has this glow, emitting from his soul
A light that few will ever even spark
He dreams in gold, his thoughts are bold
A smile brightening up my dark
...

My thoughts are my own
In my head, unheard, unknown
A superpower
...

I tend to just leap
Build my wings on the way down
I never know what I'm capable of
Until the moment comes around
...

I'm in love with my bestfriend,
Something he'll never know.
I've never been good at admitting my feelings.
Maybe it's time to let go.

She met this boy with a beautiful smile
He had brown eyes,
Curly hair that ran wild
He drove her around
