I wish
That I felt nothing
Take it away
Make me feel safe
For now
Let the rain in
Soaking your old clothes
Wilting within
I don’t want to go
I don’t want to think
I don’t want to eat
I don’t want to drink
I don’t want to talk
I don’t want to speak
I don’t want to hide
I don’t want to seek
Im stripping you down to your bare skin
You’re stripping me down to my bare skin
What’s within, what’s within, words are thin
I wish
That I felt nothing
Take it away
Make me feel safe
For now
Let the rain in
Soaking your old clothes
Wilting within
I don’t want to go
I don’t want to think
I don’t want to eat
I don’t want to drink
I don’t want to talk
I don’t want to speak
I don’t want to hide
I don’t want to see
I wish I could just
Muster up trust
I must, I must
You have to feel you have to feel you have to feel you have to feel you have to feel you have to feel you have to feel every emotion you can
I feel emotions like oceans washing over me
And I feel my skull pulse out signals that claim they are me
And I think that talk is cheap
And you are the same as me
I think your ideals are weak
And I’m not as sick as they make it seem
I wish, that I felt nothing
Take it away
Make me feel safe
For now
Let the rain in
Let yourself down
I won’t let you drown

Jamie
I’ve come to claim custody of our child
For a little while
Rainy
I’ve come to claim a stake of our child
For a little while
You say that art can’t be broken
But the canvas is torn
And just inside your apartment is the
The aftermath of a winter storm
love can’t be broken
It’s the only thing in life that’s for sure
But that’s just a lie, for her
I see
baby stuck between the lines of a telephone
while their screaming
I’ve been
Tearing up the trust between the both of them
Just to feel something
He says that mommy is selfish
Like the red roses red thorn
She says that daddy is numb
and he is flawed to the core
In a peculiar position
In the dead space between the stars
floating with no air and heart
Jamie
Why don’t you stay
Why don’t you ever say what you really mean
Jamie
Why don’t you stay
Why don’t you ever say what you really mean

I’d give you all that I have
And all that I am
Just to keep you alive tonight
I’d drown beneath the sand
Just to make sure
You could see the sunrise
It takes more strength than I have
Just to let go
Just to let go of the past
And I wanted you to know
I killed my bird of sorrow
So I wouldn’t have to hear it singing over you
Eilamay
I knew her when she was younger
And fond of a man
Who would never love her
Eilamay
I watched her slipping away
To a more man who touched her
With bruises on his hands
He won’t ever love you that way
He won’t ever love you that way
He won’t ever love you that way
He won’t ever love you that way
He won’t ever love you that way
He won’t ever love you that way
Not enough to say, not enough to stay

Come on over here
I have half a mind to tell you to get away from me
It's the same situation that I’m always in
You're a million times younger than you were yesterday
Please intoxicate
I don’t want to impose myself on your family
I was lost in the rain there’s no need to judge me
You’re a monster when not heavily medicated
And you don't love me
You don’t love me
You won't love me
You don’t love me
Come on over here
I have half a mind just to stay away from you
You’re a million years younger than I am used to
It’s the same situation that we’re always in
I’m gonna loose you
You go bare backed, just ripping off my clothes it seems
You go hit slapping, hitting, hacking into me
You’re a monster when you’re not heavily medicated, heavily medicated
And you don't love me
You don’t love me
You won't love me
You don’t love
If you are the poem
I am the author
You’re dripping in diamonds
I have sapphire scars
We take what we’re given
And tear it apart
If you love somebody
Keep them close to your heart

Boarded a red line out to see you
Fog on the mirror meaning crystal clear
You’re so surreal
The edge of a year has made me hunger
To act so much wiser but I feel younger still
you’re too surreal
Suffer, lackluster
If my voice cracks when I cry
Rusted, lackluster
you used to listen close but
But now I seem to have died
In your mind
Who am I
In your mind
Who am I
If I have died
Thoughts in my mind just slip on right through
Demanding attention my focus it rests upon you
I only want to love you
I feel so distant, I feel so selfish
If I had it my way no one would be able to tell
From the way I move
Suffer, lackluster
If my voice cracks when I cry
Rusted, lacklusted
you used to listen close but
But now I seem to have died
In your mind
Who am I
In your mind
Who am I
If I’ve died
In your mind, I have died
In your mind, I have died
Have I died, in your mind, in your mind, in your mind
Have I died

I met a girl, she was my world
When she left my side, I knew I would die
Sitting alone the top of the earth
Falling at light speed towards the center of earth
Crash underwater towards the edges of earth
Touching the core and I am melting hot for her
I'm made of plastic oceans
It's hard to contain my emotions
Can you repeat the question
Put it in simpler phrases
I met a girl, she was my world
When she left my side, I knew I would die
Sitting alone at the center of earth
Hot in the head and fuming with hurt
I want to break every bone in your body
I want to shake all the joy from your hobby
Two years have gone and you stole them away
Making me doubt everyone that I see
He wears a mask and she only tells lies
Stare them both down because I see them in your eyes
I'm made of plastic oceans
It's hard to contain my emotions
Can you repeat the question
Put it in simpler phrases
I don't ever really learn
I don't ever really learn anything
I don't ever really learn
I don't ever really learn anything
I don’t ever really learn, learn
I don’t ever really learn anything,
I don’t ever really learn
I don’t ever really learn anything, anymore
Hard to contain
My emotions, motions, are like oceans
Hard to contain
My emotions, motions, are like oceans
Are like oceans
