You're changing. Feel it in my bones.
My heart just shattered at words you typed to me,
not even said.
I wish I were dead instead of misled.
I don't understand anything you do.
They walk all over you and now you're walking all over me.
I wanna put my heart on hold. Make my pulse beat a little more slow.
Just don't talk to me anymore.
I don't know what I ever saw in you.
You're indecisive and moody and arrogant.
Well, you got new friends and I'm just a floater in the wind...
You filled me up with lies. And now I'm paying the price.
Was making a hole in my soul ever one of your goals?
You're changing. I feel it as my heart burns.
This everlasting fire is maddening to feel.
But nothing could be more real.
Maybe it's best we don't talk again.
Cuz suddenly you're different and now I despise everything you are.

Regret

And I said: "Don't sweat it. Don't, don't sweat it"
even though I knew right then that he'd forget it.
I try. I try so hard
to make it obvious but mostly I just toss it away.
Well, what's my chance in this bet?
Every time I look into your eyes
I promise myself I'll never regret.
Oh, but when I get home I cry my eyes out, leaving myself in doubt.
Cuz closed or open I am alone.
And you were such a
good boy. Good, good, boy.
The kind of boy who stays inside with his toys.
Well, reply! Re-Reply!
I may not be a machine but at least give me a chance to love.
The slightest touch of your hand on mine
makes this world feel so fine.
And I turn around real slow like in the movies,
just to figure out that I'm standing still.
So clueless. So, so, clueless.
And you'll never understand where I'm coming from.
Well, leave it up to me to fuck things up
when I've run all out of luck.
If you could feel it in my veins...
If you could hear it in my brain...
Well, I just can't contain it.
How can I tell you how I feel
if I always get shut down?
And I put on a front of
not being afraid,
but I think that you see through it anyway.
Just leave me in this mindframe.
Just leave me in this mindframe.
Just leave me in this mindframe.
Just leave me in this mindframe - depressed as I came.

What's going through you head?
Am I there at all?
Is it hard to suppress me?
Or maybe easier than you thought...
You're a real jerk. You know that?
I'm struggling to keep myself upright.
I'm really trying with all my might.
Surprised I even got to sleep last night.
Love knocks me down.
Why do I get back up?
And I know the reality of everything
yet I still act on my feelings.
Love picks me up.
I feel so tall.
And I'm afraid to say I need you.
And I'm ashamed to say I miss you
I walked out only cuz you walked away.
When I came back I couldn't find you.
So I stayed inside, pretending to feel satisfied
but deep down I wanted to explode.
Well, I shivered and shook through the cold of the morning
expecting to see a sign.
But the stars were dead
and my eyes were frozen
so I walked home.

Darkness

There are tornadoes in my gut
and my heart's boarded up so no one can get inside.
The devil's in my chest. Smoke is on my breath.
So where's God? Save me now.
Yeah, that's what I thought - No one, nothing, nowhere.
Wanna die? Who's there?
Paranoid and untrustworthy.
Once was clean but now I'm dirty, come on.
So much for childhood, it did nothing but deceive me.
All my friends that come and go have come and gone. They're leaving me.
The darkness in my mind
is making me go blind
to all the good things around me.
Inside out, inside in I almost never always win
and that's why I want to fly.
The darkness is a poison that is mine.
There's a hurricane in my brain
and when the wind blows I go insane.
Sometimes my thoughts hydroplane and spin out of control.
I get lost in death drowning in whatever's left.
Where are you? Save me now.
The reason why I embrace death is
it's just going to get harder to accept the older I get.

Memories

We rolled around on the floor, laughing 'til our sides were sore
And I kissed you on your head. My face turned so red
and as if having too much wine, we fell asleep intertwined.
Well, the time and place is always right when you say:
"I love you and good night"
And oh, the memories they float
in my mind, in my head and when I'm by myself in bed
And oh. Oh no.
These thoughts are like a drug.
And I swear I've done too much
but I won't stop cuz you're the sweetest rush.
And I pounced on you like a lion
and we got reacquainted with your living room rug.
You pinned me down so I couldn't move my wrists
but boy, I must insist that you were wrong when you said that I couldn't get out of it.
I arched my back and bit my tongue and said "Think twice,"
And I fought you off like the girl I am.
