Crumpled Corners

My life is just another strand of the same old disease

Pushing me around, repeating, cutting me down at the knees

What I wouldn't give to feel a summer breeze

Instead of living in the past, in the screenshots where I breathe

Oh what I wouldn't give to feel a heart beat in my chest 

And know there's something out there waiting for me

That there's something left 

To find..

Other than the crumpled corners, pictures and the crime scene doors

In the prison of my mind.

These voices up inside my mind are savage and cutthroat 

I'm spending days stuck in a maze with post it notes I wrote 

I'm not a fairytale, no one is coming to save me

I'll have to pull myself together if I wish to be free

Oh what I wouldn't give to feel a heart beat in my chest 

And know there's something out there waiting for me

That there's something left 

To find..

Other than the crumpled corners, pictures and the crime scene doors

In the prison of my mind.

In the prison of my mind.

In the prison of my-

Crumpled corners.

Hide your daughters!

Kids are vicious when they're bored and-

I don't know what you just said.

Maybe I'd be better off dead?

Fulfill all those little wishes.

God sakes child, wash the dishes!

Why did you leave the washing out?!

Maybe I'm just a useless clout?

Writing writing, check a rhyme-

Oh shit is today the deadline?!

Round and round in circles all the time!

In the prison of my mind. 

Empty Chair

All these dints in my skin
And the screaming begins
As it all tangles round
A bombardment of sound
So I beg and I plead
While keeping dignity
Yeah I reach out to some
But support comes from none

Is it time to let go
Is it time to bleed out
I've yet to let blood flow..

And the mockery sings in my head
And it brings all the laughter and dread
Cause in the end all I am
Is a child, a little madam
And since nobody cares
Are they even aware
That soon there'll be nothing there..
Just an empty chair

So it all hits me now
In amidst all this sound
And the faces I've lost
They all crowd around
Are they leering at me?
What is it that they see?
While they pull me apart
This has to end right now.

So it's time to let go
Yeah it's time to breathe out
Maybe free, my spirit will flow..

Cause the mockery screams in my head
I'm surrounded by laughter and dead
Cause in the end all I am
Is a brat, a little madam
And since nobody cares
Maybe they are all aware
That nothing belongs there..
Just an empty chair

Seasons Of Love

I remember when we started out

Sweet days and a spring haze

All the ice and the pain went away

The sun had come and it was

Here to stay

I don't know how I felt so free

I was floating on a summer breeze

Warm glow, you couldn't slow me down

Blue skies without a

Single cloud

And I guess in the end

I still don't want to let you go

And I guess in the end

Every flower has to wither

And so,

If I come crawling home

Remind me that you're free

Because this is the way

This is the way

It has to be

We were a thing of beauty

I thought that we had it all

But at the end of the year

Every leaf has to brown

Has to fall

Time slowed, I watched us break

We were stubborn, living a lie

The fault wasn't with, one of us

But in the end we had to

Say goodbye

And I guess in the end

I still don't want to let you go

And I guess in the end

Every flower has to wither

And so,

If I come crawling home

Remind me that you're free

Because this is the way

This is the way

It has to be

Oh it has to be

So go running free
