My phone chimes, I read your name. My heart beats And burns in flame. I wonder what you want,
Snowflakes on my window pane. White and crystal clear. A new country, a cold place, How did I get here? They made me choose,
You’re not on my mind anymore You’re not even in my heart I let you go, you’re not around no… I did my part. When I’m in bed
I was running for my life, Away from them. Looking everywhere, In search of help. I saw a friend
but you come and go like the sea to the shoreline
Plenty of things that I want to t… Most of which, you never knew, He calls you his confidante But secrets revealed, very few. You are but a distraction,
I look at my hands and feel sad because the spaces between my fingers are right where
You’re holding me tight, Looking into my eye. Think this is it, This is how I wanna die. You make me promises
there’s a certain emptiness one I cant describe it hurts but in a weird way this is no way to survive my heart feels hollow
I’m waiting for love So I can write again of happy things and not heartbreak and pain. I’m waiting for love
I saw a new face on my screen, A face I wish I had never seen. Saw a pair of lips I recognised, The other, I despised. Dark room, loud music, party vibes…
The sun wakes me up, As the treetops glisten. You can hear the little birds, If you carefully listen. The bathroom is crowded,
I procrastinate the best Knowing tomorrow’s the test. Find everything amusing, Even consider a little boozing. Nothing can stop me
