this lonely forest keeps my dreams
buried in the dirt charitably unseen
this lonely forest keeps your eyes
blind and turned away, longing at a disguise
Oh!
what can i do?
where can i turn??
Oh!
nobody’s around...
so sing your tuning of a girl

you always know what to say
you always know where to go
but now that i lead the way
we have to reap what we sow
the days get shorter
the nights get longer
the days get shorter
the nights get longer
stripes and signs; echo the dance
leaving marks where i drag my hands
so you can follow through the dark
lonely roads for our stray hearts
try to see through broken eyes
pulling shrapnel from my thighs
so we can crawl into the light
lonely hearts wont survive tonight
onto a highway of nothing
tied to your car on a chain
when things get so overwhelming
your there to take me away
the days get shorter
the nights get longer
the days get shorter
the nights get longer
stripes and signs; echo the dance
leaving marks where i drag my hands
so you can follow through the dark
lonely roads for our stray hearts
try to see through broken eyes
pulling shrapnel from my thighs
so we can crawl into the light
lonely hearts wont survive tonight

all we could have said
and done has left us
so far apart
as you shut the door
break the dirt off the hinge
i know
im worse off
and im not writing in my diary anymore
all i want is to understand
whats in your head whats in my head
i run my hands thru the sunbeams
and they fade and they
fade
trying hard to sleep im
keeping it
together
dont fall apart
being stuck without you feels like
forever
forever

every single night
i fight the urge to give it up
but i sleep anyway
without me
every single time
i try; i look too deep inside
because its fading
without me
i'm scared
of what i see
the scythe has cut
through the leaves
my eyes close
desperately
love will drag you down
with me
i'm so scared
of what i need
the flowerheads
are at my knees
i shut down
instinctively
love will drag you down
with me

feels like im getting dragged away
feels like im hollow on the inside
when you scrape your hands across my skin
it feels like nothing can die
try as i might
i cannot move
put leaves over the cuts
make love, become my guts
smile as my spine
coils with the roots
and fall into the dark
just know i covet your heart
i covet your heart
feels like ive been cut open
feels like theres nothing left
except for the flowers you put in my stomach
for some rest

i keep coming back here
it all sounds the same
so many verses about falling trees
so many voices with so many names
but i am humming along
to an untrusted tune
nothing is different in this place
nothing holding me in this room
can i truly see??
the mirrors cut through me??
was i supposed to fall??
be mounted on the wall??
can i get away??
from this shitty place??
without moving at all??
i cannot move it all??
mark my words
every time ive failed
"but i will
see the end!
mark my words..."
every time ive failed
"but i will
see the end!
mark my words.."
every time ive won
"but i will
see the end!
mark my words..."
every time ive cried
"but i will
see myself
mark my words..."
every time ive given up
"but i will
hum my song!"
mark my words!!!

is it too much to ask?
i want more time to work
is it to much to ask?
i want to find myself
pulled in every direction
planted in the ground
its not too much to ask
im taking what im worth
so dont mind feeling lost
be kind and find yourself
