12 | Untitled Song #1
Your face reminds me of places I'd rather not be
Crimson waterfalls grace these cheeks
And you speak as if no one is listening
But I hear every word that escapes your cherry lips
And despite hating what I represent to you
I just can't bring myself to turn and walk away
You entice me into being the one person I despise
It makes me want this more than could be imagined
I don't want to breathe you in
The air is too thick for me to swallow
I don't even want to see what lies beyond
Through this darkness I can feel this place is hallow
I'm not going to remember this when I awake
But right now it's too hard for me not to follow
You remind me of something detrimental
A single action that could change the way we think and live
Your voice cuts into my skin and makes me bleed
Thoughts of you become obsolete even when I need this
It isn't that I don't need you anymore, trust
I do with all my heart and soul
But I have seen what your world does to me inside and out
And I'm clawing at the ceiling to get away
chorus
You forget what you needed is what you already had
I tried to show you you could be a better person
You never listen; always so self assured
It's a wonder you made it this far without falling
And you never seemed to care about things
The way that I wanted you to see them
So blind to the fact that other ways exist
It's a shame you never heard me calling
What's the matter with these walls that surround me
They feel like they're closing in on my dreams
You've taken away all that is real to me
And left me with nothing to shade my secrets behind
chorus
Crimson waterfalls grace these cheeks
And you speak as if no one is listening
But I hear every word that escapes your cherry lips
And despite hating what I represent to you
I just can't bring myself to turn and walk away
You entice me into being the one person I despise
It makes me want this more than could be imagined
I don't want to breathe you in
The air is too thick for me to swallow
I don't even want to see what lies beyond
Through this darkness I can feel this place is hallow
I'm not going to remember this when I awake
But right now it's too hard for me not to follow
You remind me of something detrimental
A single action that could change the way we think and live
Your voice cuts into my skin and makes me bleed
Thoughts of you become obsolete even when I need this
It isn't that I don't need you anymore, trust
I do with all my heart and soul
But I have seen what your world does to me inside and out
And I'm clawing at the ceiling to get away

You forget what you needed is what you already had

You never listen; always so self assured

They feel like they're closing in on my dreams
You've taken away all that is real to me
