Seeking to Find Something Worthwhile.



How much of you is made up inside my head?
How much of you is real?

I don't know how long the road to the truth is, and the lies are so tempting.

I think I just walk blindly now.
Guided by you.

Lost



It took me until now to realize just how lost I really am.
All this time, I've found salvation in the wrong places.

Not that I knew any better.

And now I've ended up here, and have no idea where to go.
So far from home, so far from anything, the decision is all mine.

For once, I really get to choose what I will become.
I hope I don't regret it.

When Someone Takes Your Heart


No amount of sleep will make you feel awake,
and smiling feels strange on your face.

You feel everyone can see right through you, and most people can.
You feel you're going to fall and shatter from the shortest height, and you probably will.

Words no longer make sense, and if they did, nothing anyone would say would even matter.

But look on the bright side:
When someone takes your heart, only they can hurt you.


Life


Drink up.
Give the moon away,
Blot out the sun with your tears.

Give light to those who can't handle it,
Watch them need their fix,
Join them.

Find love,
Make it last.
Throw it away.

Kill yourself fighting to get it back.
Lament.

Become content,
Fall back in love even though you thought you never could.
Have regrets,
But promise to never take anything back.

Going.. Going... Gone.




Watching you turn your lights out, I wonder what you do afterwards.
Do you keep a light on because you feel lonely?
Or do you embrace the dark?

Do you think of me before you slip into a dream,
Or am I with you the whole time?

Will I find you alone one day, waiting for the light?

Maybe I can be the arms to embrace you when the sun will no longer suffice and it's so cold it's almost unbearable.

Maybe I can be the light that guides you out of the dark,

But if you were to stay,
I would like to be beside you.
