Lost.She listens to sad songs
so that they can match her broken heart
in melody.

She cries herself to sleep every night,
not saying a word in between her tears.

It's been so long since she's smiled a real smile,
that she doesn't even know how happiness feels.

liar, liar. Red always went so beautiful with your skin, baby girl.
it looked ever
so alive,
ever so lovely,
the red
trailing down your
twisted neck.

I was dead before you could even scream my name.

never grow up. Quite Frankly,
I need more of you in my life
because you make life more beautiful.

I'm yours. Boy: I think I'm falling in love with you, baby girl.

Girl: I've been waiting for you to say that for years.

Boy: and why is that?

Girl: Because I've always been yours.

S c a r e d. ''What are you scared of?''
''You.''
''Why?''
''Because you're always the one to break my heart, over and over again.''

blast it. And I swear that your voice
always brings back haunting memories
that have been lurking behind the shadows,
those type of memories that
always make you want to bite your tongue
because they're too painful to ever play back in your mind.

I swear that we could've held hands in the forest
trying to replay the memories in your heart
so we could chain them back together.

starstruck. The wind whispers,
and I swear
that it has your voice
as you sing me a stricken love song
about a girl with no heart
that becomes a witch in disguise.

Love has always been wicked,
but you always left me starstruck.

Happiness. Happiness-
a lot of people believe it has to do with smiling,
but I think it's more about
how you feel inside.

The warmth inside your heart
that makes you want to melt in pieces,
that you would kill for.

I have caught it.

you're a fool. ''Can you own my heart, baby?''
''Of course. Your heart is mine.''

the way we destroy ourselves.I'm sorry for every bad word that I ever said to you,
I didn't know I was the one to leave a hole in your heart
because your too afraid of being broken.
I'm sorry for letting go of your hand as I lost consciousness,
I should just stop breathing.
I'm sorry
just for existing
because right now
that feels like the worst thing
that i'm doing to you.

Wanted.Wanted:

a boy with a broken smile and baby blue eyes
like the ocean
that will break your heart in pieces.

Wanted:

a boy who writes love poetry
who sings you a broken song
looking deep into your eyes
for a smile.

Wanted:
a boy who knows that I have boundaries,
but still likes to steal kisses
and hold me like there's no tomorrow.

Wanted:
a dream boy in a lonely world.

shooting star. You're afraid of a shooting star
because you feel like you don't deserve to make a wish,
but baby boy,
you deserve all of the shooting stars
in the world,
because you are one.

a little piece of heaven.Give me a disaster
and I'll swear that I'll turn it into something beautiful.
If you're near me
everything you touch magically fits your mood,
but I don't really care
because your voice always gives me goosebumps
and makes me feel alive again.

-

You magically make a sad song
the most beautiful thing in the world
because you're a star in the fallen.
I've never felt so brave before,
but I still know that I'm slowly falling apart.

And your voice is the thing that makes me feel strong again
because whenever I think of you
I can pick up the missing pieces in my heart again.

I've never felt so strong before,

one, two, three, four.She's got a gun planted on her chest
for all of the wrong reasons,
and once she counts to five
she's taking her own life
so she can see you again.
And this pain has never felt so raw before,
it's like every time I close my eyes I see nothing but your face.

She's got a voice that would kill hearts
if you ever dared to get too close,
so she spends her nights alone
letting the music echo through the walls.
She doesn't know yet that her heart was taken away six months ago
the second that you left.

She's got nothing left to her anymore,
but the truth is that she's never looked so beautiful.
(and you're still flawless.)

knock 'em dead, baby.''All you need to do is breathe''

he tells her,
but one simple task
has never felt so impossible before,
especially when you feel like you're slowly fading away
because you've never felt so empty.

(And whenever I'm in doubt,
I always looked up to you to build me up,
because I would look into your dark brown eyes
to see a life story
that would make me believe in life again.
And you would always tell me to ''knock 'em dead''
to rise my strength up
when I've never been so close to falling before.)

(Even if I can't hear you over my own singing,
I'll always remember your smile
because it was enough to keep me alive.)

Wake up, Beautiful. Do you know how hard it is to just sit by
And watch you screw up your life?
You're beautiful,
So why don't you see that?

Dear Depression. Dear Depression,
When did you first take over my dying heart?
I want to be free again.
Why do you insist that everyone hates me
And why do you make me so paranoid?
You always make everything so negative.
You tell me that I should hate myself.
You tell me that I should just become anorexic,
That I don't deserve anything but hell.
Dear Depression,
You've always told me that I'm wrong.
You make me look into the mirror and not realize who is staring back at my reflection.

You cry out loud,
I die inside.

You get help,
I die.

Blind. love kills.
