Oil and Water

Oil and water

never combined

you and I,

we were the same


 

I reacted to your words

and your voice negatively


 

I rested on top of your world

but I was a burden


 

I still stayed

because sometimes

we felt as one

and in those highs

I felt fine


 

we smiled

we were fine


 

those times kept me nearby

but was it really worth it?


 

Oil and water

never combined

you and I,

we were the same

    How do we know that we’ll die

    if we are not dead yet?

    It’s alright

    It’s fine

    It’s 11:11

    the luckiest minute

    of my life

    So don’t waste it

    Hold on for just a minute

    and remind

    yourself you are

    alright

  • Spray-Tanned

    Why did you have to hurt us?

    Again?

    Again?

    ‘Cause when I was young

    there was a chance

    a chance

    to be free

    a chance to see a woman be

    something new and

    different
