In Between

Pissed, but so is he
Buried myself in pillows so I couldn’t breath
The air, was getting thin
The past, the present, the future disappeared
and it was clear
The devil had a hold on me
I would cut out my friends,
I would cut out my family,
So i’d be left with a shell of the boy I used to be
But someday I think i’ll feel a little bit better
Sewed to my skin is an invite to,
Heaven, hell and a small house inbetween
But how can I choose when i’m against all three?
Just hold onto me now
I’ll tell you what it’s about
We can work this all out
Just hold onto me now
If you stay, we’ll be allowed
To try and figure it out
I think I like being away,
From all the drinks and all the games
That makes it feel like we are in love
Instead it keeps us away
It’s not that I don’t have fun,
It’s just you’re way too intense you see?
Oh tragically I am the worst for you
and you’re the worst for me
So can I call you on the phone?
I just want to hear you say
“You’ve done the best that you can for me”
and if I don’t, that’s ok
And when I called you on the phone, did not expect to hear you say
“This love is not what it used to be and I don’t want you to stay"

it was too late
you didn't understand
saving all the love for you was better instead
of giving it up
giving up on my grief
wasting away, falling down on my knees
i'd bottle it up
whilst trying to speak
when nothing ever came out
i was tempted to leave
i'm not selling myself
i have fallen too short
if the weatherman is right we'll be expecting a storm
if i loved you, would you love me?
we've been tearing up a hole in this family
if i'm this low in your hierarchy
i don't want a part of this, don't count me in
if i told you that we could see
everything you wanted it was meant to be
can you still find any time to tell me
don't count me in
i saw them in my dream
looked like adam and eve
but they were sat in peace
now i can see

Why can’t you be what I want you to be.
Spending every night, praying endlessly.
Why can’t I give up?
On the tears rolling over, it hurts that i’m sober.
Fix your problems, one in line.
Hand in hand, we’ll pass the time.
My mouth’s full, for a lack of excuses.
Loved this night, anything but abusive to me.
I know that there’s something going on here,
and you tell me to make up my mind or leave.
Just wish you wouldn’t treat me this way.
You, you’re loving this night.
But you think it’s alright
(Yes you do, you really do)
You, you’re loving this night.
You’re loving this life.

27 degrees in the summer
To let it go would be a bummer
We could settle down and enjoy the heat, but you told me
It's too late
A sense of urgency rushes over me
In state
The wealth of everything is consuming me
You hate
The sun it's rising but you can't get to me
I won't wait
To dry your eyes not my responsibility
I crave
The heaps of energy you once brought to me
Re plate
A meal you serve with unfamiliarity
Weak bait
I'll fall for anything if you tell me
I'm too late

Soft to rest on your bed
Tell me a joke
Only your words can cut all through the smoke
Hearing you breathe it away
I couldn't tell between night or a full day
That's a common name for a dog, I suppose
Talk to me all about fixing your nose
Wishing he'd leave you alone
Spending your time on the phone
A doctor, another, a few
Careful what you do
Caplets just hurt you
I only want you
I'm a sailor fixing your ship, rock the vote let it tip,
Only your words can cut all through my lips I suppose
Taking our time we'll slowly abide the rules that take up the length of a lifetime

I am cynical,
God knows I'm bitter-full.
If I could listen, I'd change it all
If I said "baby, do you know why I can't stomach the hormones that make me feel alone?"
You'd just sit there
And I would moan.
If I could turn back the time to get my job back, and try to get a hold of my life, I'd start to relax. I'd start again.
Faking always makes the heart ache.
