An End to an End

I was not the one for us
Never meant to make a fuss
But boy unknown is taunting me
Says this time will set me free
Tells me how I’m kind and smart
Wants the body, not the heart
Ropes me in, though insincere
I forget about the fear
Clenching onto baby teeth
Song fragments and broken dreams
Lost within a rush of blood
Voided one to fill the flood
In these eyes, I’m never free
Dark brown holes that murder me
Touch that makes intentions known
Leaves all my defenses thrown
If there’s one thing that I’ve learned
Love and trust are always earned
Never give them up to night
Don’t go down without a fight
It will all make sense one day
But there are debts we have to pay
Until the fog begins to clear
You are all I have to fear
You won’t get me
You won’t let me go
You won’t let me be
So I won’t be

Left me staring at the door
Now closing
Frostbit, standing in the cold
Half frozen
I have always been a half
One half, not whole
Purpose written in my veins
Forgotten
I would rather wash the stains
From your heart
I have always been a half
One half, not whole
You can leave me, I don’t mind
Think about it from time to time
I am broken, but I am fine
Leave me at the epilogue
Leave me in the aftermath
I will be the one to burn
I will be the one to crash
Land

Turbulence

Leveled out
Safe for now
The fear simmers below
Will we make it out?
Will we make it out?
157 gone
Last night, taking off
Somewhere among the clouds
Will we make it out?
Will we make it out?
I wish I got to know you
Left my feelings unfulfilled
Quelled my instincts and desires
Calmed my senses, I’ve had my fill
Calm the turbulence in my mind
Rushing thoughts to knock me loose
Lost my balance in the aisle
To the thought of seeing this through

Stop Being Scared

Gift to future self
Don’t let this get so out of hand
You’re too good for this
You’re a light that’s gold
Holding eyes so wide, not frail
Everything’s possible
Though the man inside your head
Tells you otherwise
Keeps you up at night
Wants you to stop from being here
Stop being scared
Live in better health
May you take more breaths
May your dreams come true
May every brief last day evade
The fear inside of you
You know you don’t need this
And it’s best to leave it
Let it go
It’s not worth staying here
There’s no hope for an end result
And I’m waiting for a moment that never comes
Such is the beat of a broken drum
So you take what you want and I will regress
It is what it is what it is I guess
And I’m waiting for a moment that never comes
Such is the beat of a broken drum
So you take what you want and I will regress
It is it is it is what it is I guess
I guess
Stop being scared
Cause we all get old
And a month from now
You will feel the same
Life is more than a game of blame and shame
So stop being scared
Live out your days
You’re too good for that
You’ll figure it out
Just continue on
Oh but stay right there
