From Miles Away

I’d walk into my backyard and sit in my hammock.
Summer evening air suppresses my panic.
I can smell the ocean from miles away.
Please, wind, take me away
Oh, please take me away.
Oh, please take me away.
Each day at this time, I seem to fall back
To my younger days which had long since passed.
Standing barefoot on my rough driveway
Staring at the sky wondering what to say.
These years have gone by so fast
I’ve let too many chances pass
I fear I’ll grow old with nothing to show
I should give myself a break sometimes.
So I’ll stand up straight
Look into the mirror
I’ll tell myself
Not today, you have too much to give.
You have a purpose, it soon will surface.
Nothing will take me away.
Nothing can take this away.
Nothing will take me away.
Nothing can take this away from me.

Where I've Gone Wrong

Another week, another month
And still I believe
that my next minute will be my last
Haunting memories follow me like a ghost
Reminding me, where I’ve gone wrong.
I’m following in footsteps of people I wanna forget.
People who’ve abandoned me, left me for dead.
I’m sick of who I see when I wake up.
He’s not who I recall.
Not someone who gave up.
Sometimes I can forget the past
But that illusion will never last.
Dealing with this shit day in and day out
I need someone to tell me what life’s about.
Don’t get me wrong, this isn’t a cry for help.
Just reading off the fucked up hand that I’ve been dealt.
You see there comes a point in everyone’s life when you
Have to realize what’s a lie and what’s the truth.
Sometimes its not always so black and white
So fuck the spectrum, paint it in your own light.
Just hearing these words come out
Shake me to my core and make me start to doubt.
Everything I’ve said to myself and honestly
I think I’m better off talking in my sleep.
At least I can be rightfully ignored
Instead of being asked “what is this all for?”
You see, there is, something, thats bothering me.
Its how, you claim, to see right through me

I guess I didn’t see it coming.
This whirlwind of disappointment.
I know this was all your fault.
But Like always I’ll take the blame.
You pin it on me like you used to.
You’ll never fucking change.
You bring out the worst in me.
And all it does is make you smile.
You’d only put me back together
Just to have something to destroy.
I can’t ever just break free
From oppression and anxiety.
And you’ll say
You know what I’m going through.
So I feel i need a crutch
Just to hold on and get through.
But here’s the thing
You never really helped
Only made me feel
Like I’m my worst enemy.
So now I’m stuck with a feeling of regret.
Locked inside my room, sleeping till the sun has set.
You said things will get better, but how long is too long to wait for change.
You said things will get better, but i don't know how long i can wait. for change.
This room is starting to spin out of control
I think I’m losing control, I’m losing control.
I cant stand on my own, I have no feeling left.
I think this might be it for me.

Give In

You left me in the dark for so long
I’ve forgotten what the sun feels like.
But now there’s something burning
Through my skin
Its speaking in tongues telling me right from wrong
But unbeknownst to me,
Its a language of fallacies.
Like the one you spoke to me for so long
Now my ears are so used to only hearing lies.
Your words demean and break me down
Attack from the inside.
And now there’s nothing I can do
But sit back and just give in.
I’m sinking faster through the floorboards
With every passing second.
Not a single chance to catch my breath
I’ll die with more questions than answers.
I’ll die with more questions than answers
Why can’t I feel anything? Why the fuck can’t I feel anything?
So this where things end for you and me.
There won’t be any truces made
and only hard feelings left.
Its in these moment that we see who we truly are
Total and complete strangers
With nothing to offer each other.
So we’ll leave it at a teary goodbye.
But thank you for nothing, It was a hell of a ride
I don’t want to hear from you again.
Get rid of my number, forget what I look like.
