Let It Kill You...

I woke up at the bottom of the sea
and tried to drink the fear of drowning from my bones
i'm weighed down, like an anchor to the floor
this is the only place that I feel at ease
I've come to cope,
With the feeling, of drowning in my sleep
Just to wake to find myself begging to breathe
Oh, can't you see we're all drowning here
I woke up, at the bottom of the sea
And tried to drink the fear of drowning from my bones
enough to make an ocean
enough to feel, like i am drowning in this place
But what is really living,
when you’d rather never open up your eyes?
When you have to measure each step twice, just to find your way home
Hoping you get shot along the way
Because this isn't the life you wanted,
This isn't what you dreamed
We all want so desperately to live
I've come to cope,
With feeling, of drowning in my sleep
Just to wake to find myself begging to breathe
Oh, can't you see we're all drowning in our own ways
We’re all drowning

The Smell After Rain

Its been raining in my head lately.
God damn, has it been a year already,
And it still keeps raining?
I am waiting to outgrow this skin, because it's suffocating and I don’t feel comfortable in it.
and I'm starting to believe that the water dripping through the ceiling is nothing more than the dreams we dared to dream, but like our hearts, ended up crashing on the floor.
Leaving nothing but the reminisce of what was and what now is.
This feeling has become all too familiar
But there is beauty in this storm, and beauty when it breaks.
I can feel you in the smell after rain.
Im still waiting to outgrow this skin, because it's still suffocating and I still don't feel comfortable in it.
and i'm starting to believe the water dripping through the ceiling is collecting, creating a never ending sea inside of me.
And I am merely a jar collecting the debris from this storm, spinning, spinning inside my head
I fear it'll overflow
Its spinning, still spinning, collecting inside my stomach until i'm sick and vomit from all the things I promised but could never fulfill.
Because you see there is beauty in this storm, and there is beauty when it breaks.
I can still feel you in the smell after rain.
It’s a strange comfort much like your perfume, it lingers long after you leave the room.
Im starting to believe that the water dripping through the ceiling is collecting, creating a never ending sea inside of me, waiting to be set free.
A sea I will forever be navigating alone, chasing the smell after rain.

Whispers

I hear your song
The one you used to sing when i was young
To let me know that i'm not alone. That i'm not alone
I hear your song
It sings to me when everything's gone wrong
From echos down the hall
As whispers through these walls
I Can hear you sing
this melody
to let me know i'm not alone
That im not alone
That im not alone
I'm not alone

Allow Yourself to Exist

You’re on your knees praying to a god that you, don’t believe in
you’re Hoping someone, can hear you scream,
When no sound leaves your lips
Is it all silenced by the voices in your head?
Are they telling you, that you’re not strong enough to make it out alive
How long can I run, with this shadow attached to my heals
How long can I run, before my legs give out
I need to find, comfort in something more
Before I lose the last I own of myself
Do you think you’ll find yourself, at the bottom of that bottle,
Or at the end of that smoke?
Do you feel all your problems can be solved with a rope?
Are you hoping to find solace, with your feet dangling underneath your bedroom ceiling fan
You’re lying to yourself again, thinking that it's ok to feel this way
You’re lying to yourself again
Hoping the release of blood
Is a release of pain that paints a picture for the floor
because no one cares until you're dead
Or At least that's what everyone tells me
How long can I run, with my shadow attached to my heals
How long can I run, before my legs give out
I need to find, comfort in something more
Before I lose the last I own of myself
Relief won’t be found, in all the blood running down your arm
Can you see yourself in the puddle on the ground
Or have you lost yourself, looking for relief in a knife
Just remember
When things get dark
and you feel like your world has all but fallen apart
The Voices in your head, whispering,” come on just one more and the pain will go away.”
Remember that cloud over your head,
Raining down on you
Waters the ground too
And soon flowers will bloom at your feet
My friend, Im here for you, winter is over, spring is in bloom,
time heals all wounds
