Goodbye tragic days,
I wanted to tell you you're safe to go home now.
Nothing more to say,
We've had our time, and it's been a time.
Goodbye tragic times,
The highs and the lows used to feel like a home.
When I lose my mind
I want to lay
On the shore of grace.
Why are you following me
When I already asked you to leave?
Must have had something to teach
But I know that I want to say goodbye...
Cuz oh the sheets, they feel like home.
Your body looks so beautiful.
I meet your eyes and try not to die
Cuz everything feels like nothing was ever known.
oooo-ooo-oooo-oooo-oo
Goodbye sweetest friend.
I know that we'll meet again someday.
Goodbye times we've spent.
You taught me I want another way.
Will you see me here?
Flying and free, but at home to the heart that is me.
I won't have any less love to give when I'm giving it all to the sea.
Holding your hand inside my own is the feeling of absolute peace.
Oh the sheets, they feel like home.
Your body looks so beautiful.
I meet your eyes and try not to die
Cuz everything feels like nothing was ever known.
oooo-ooo-oooo-oooo-oo
Goodbye detriment.
I don't want you here anymore.
There's no easy way to say
I never liked you much, and when you leave will you shut the door?
Goodbye tragic times,
The highs and the lows never felt so alone.
When I lose my mind
I want to lay
On the shore of grace.
Why are you following me
When I already asked you to leave?
Must have had something to teach
But I know that I want to say goodbye...
Cuz oh the sheets, they feel like home.
Your body looks so beautiful.
I meet your eyes and try not to die
Cuz everything feels like nothing was ever known.
oooo-ooo-oooo-oooo-oo

Broken Person

Divine retribution, our fucked institution,
I’m seeing scars…
You know who you are.
I daydream in jail cells,
And some days it feels like hell.
Can someone please take me
Home to myself?
Hello, can you hear me
Through all the smoke and din?
I hope this won’t break us.
I try not to breathe it in.
I’m not a broken person,
But neither are you, my friend.
I’ll say it gladly:
love you madly.
But you’re right,
The world can be so dark at night.
I’ll stand beside you,
And show you all your inner light,
Cuz sacrifice
Is no price to pay for this.
I’ll say it gladly:
I love you madly.
I’ve always been chaos.
My hearts’ never been my own.
I’m strung on a map of
The people I’ve called my home.
I’ve loved all the angels.
I’ve loved all the demons too.
The only thing missing
Is how it felt loving you.
My hearts’ been breaking out,
My minds’ been breaking down,
And if my soul could shout,
She’d resurrect this town.
This town was oh, so bright
When all the dreamers ruled the night
Oh, will you follow me?
I want to go home and see.
My hearts’ been breaking out,
My minds’ been breaking down,
And if my soul could shout,
She’d resurrect this town.
This town was oh, so bright
When all the dreamers ruled the night
Oh, will you follow me?
I want to go home and see.
But you’re right,
The world can be so dark at night.
I’ll stand beside you,
And show you all your inner light,
Cuz sacrifice
Is no price to pay for this.
I’ll say it gladly:
I love you madly.
Divine retribution, our fucked institution,
I’m seeing scars…
You know who you are.
I daydream in jail cells,
And some days it feels like hell.
Can someone please take me
Home to myself?
Hello, can you hear me
Through all the smoke and din?
I hope this won’t break us.
I try not to breathe it in.
I’m not a broken person,
But neither are you, my friend.
I’ll say it gladly:
love you madly.

Gentle

I wish I
Could go back
And hold you when
You were just a little kid
And tell you things you need to hear then.
I wish I
Could go back
And play the games you used to play
In your backyard.
I'd play them your way
From the start.
But alas
They haven't
Yet made something
That could do that.
I guess we'll just have to stay
Here in 2020.
But soon the time will pass
I'lll ask you things
You never thought I'd ask,
And you'll keep hoping
That I still think you're funny.
Won't you please be gentle with me?
I'll take you places you never thought you'd see.
And though I might seem triggered,
I hope you'll please consider
I'm just a small girl whose head is too little for her dreams.
