words are like weapons, but mine won't wound

If all the words in the world were gone

And we were left with the thoughts in our heads,

The list of things to say wouldn't be that long,

If I had one sentence to speak before sentences were dead. 

 

I don't have a story to tell to the world,

I don't have some inspiring speech to leave,

Because my whole life revolved around that girl,

The one that decided we weren't meant to be. 

 

So you, that girl, I have something to say,

Even though they're all buried, the words aren't hard to find,

The sentence has been itching in the back of my brain,

I'll love you forever, and you can run back to me anytime.

    Ask for help

    They tell you,

    But when you do,

    They refuse to give it,

     

    Be yourself

    They chant,

    But when you try,

    You're told to hide away. 

     

  • flicker, flicker

    The light flickers in my bedroom

    as I brush my hair;

    I remember that theory that it’s someone dead trying to speak to you,

    I’m sure it’s just a thing from movies.
