Silence is natural Uneasy to some
…
…
…
…
To others That is just how they live
There is no pressure to talk There is no pressure to share your ideas Sometimes The best conversations you have Are just with the voices in your head
…
…
…
…
Silence is steady Just you and your thoughts
There is no pressure at all You do what makes you comfortable❤️
If your hand could reach inside my heart What would you do with it It’s a stupid question I know exactly what you would do You just wouldn’t want to say it to my face You would want to rip it right out No hesitation To be honest I’d do the same I love you as much as you love me
I am broken Not by you Not by anyone
I love you I reach for you I think about you daily
When I knew you felt the same I was overjoyed We both were We talked And talked And talked
The more we did The less love I felt for you I longed for what we had before Not what we have now
It has always been this way I have always been this way
The thing is You didn’t do a single this wrong My brain is wrong
You have always been kind Always said the right things To make me smile There wasn’t a single thing you said that Made me second guess myself
I love you I loved you It has always been Iike this I have always been like this
Everytime you give me a compliment or say something nice It feels like my heart moves five feet away Until eventually It can’t reach for you anymore
I loved you You didn’t do a single thing wrong I have to lie “Bye, love you” I’m in too deep
When I’m ready to say I’m tired of this What do I say? What can I say? “I just lost feelings”
That is all I’ve ever told anyone It hurts each time I still love each and everyone of them I’m tired
You look at me Different than before
You once looked at me with a glow in your eyes You once had joy and brightness in your smile You used to glow more than the sun itself
Now your eyes are dark and cold Your smile quivers and is thirsty for power You aren’t kissed by the sun anymore Not the moon You have been sucked into a black hole
It is too late for you
You once craved laughter Now all you want is power and blood I can’t believe after everything This is you
You were so kind I loved you so much You loved me too
How could you have caused this much suffering I thought you would thrive in power Never like this though
I thought you would make things brighter with me by your side You took everything Threw me out Your greed has taken you over
I want you back
I never asked for this
The higher I go The closer I am to the stars
I’ve always loved the idea of living with the stars Would they be warm and kind Or would they be selfish and cold Either way
I wish to meet the stars at least once in my life Maybe the moon and Saturn while I’m up there too
I love this swing I come here every day To try to swing with the stars
You look just as beautiful as the day I met you If not more You’ve changed
The time we spent apart The time you said you needed space That only made me love you more All I could see was your cocoon
You looked blank You looked lifeless You looked trapped
I wanted to help you I wanted to rip you out of that shell I missed you so much
The longer you were in there The more I worried you would never come out That’s what makes this so sweet
I can finally see you Your old self And your new wings The way they shine is beautiful But It’s hard for me to believe that this is really you How can I know?
I still love you all the same
This won’t last long Though I must go soon I am still a caterpillar
I have to work on myself now I don’t want you to go through what I did I don’t want you to worry about me So I need my space
See you soon
Maybe my wings will glow like yours
-Mouthwashing Spoilers- -Still Good Even If You Haven’t Played The Game-
A slacker from the start Never good at anything I’ve tried it all Never good enough for Mom. Dad. Jimmy. Swansea.
Such a slacker she said Sent me as far away as she could Not even space was enough for Mom. Dad. Jimmy.
Always shunned Always silenced Never acknowledged Never seen as more than a joke Never seen at all
I boarded this ship Thinking of a new start Thinking I will finally be enough for Mom. Dad.
Thinking I’ll make it home and be greeted with hugs and praise Thinking I’ll make it home at all Such a slacker
I finally found someone to look up to I finally found someone who would be proud of me
Once the ship had crashed… Once Curly was… hurt And Jimmy was captain The whole ship shifted Anya was silenced like I was She was strong until the end What did her parents think?
Once the door was locked… I was so dumb So naive Such a slacker
I wanted to save her No I wanted Swansea to be proud of me Right when I heard Jimmy, I knew what I had to do
I could fix everything Save everyone Be accepted Be seen as more than a slacker Be seen at all
I was desperate Swansea would understand Swansea would be proud
I hoisted myself up the vent It was Hot Dark Sharp
I was desperate I knew better I trusted Curly. Anya. Swansea. Jimmy. Why didn’t I listen
I was sliced I was diced I was cooked I was electrocuted I was… Alive
If Curly could make it So could I-
Swansea couldn’t take it I could I was strong I was breathing I was OKAY SWANSEA PUT IT DOWN I’M STRONG I CAN TAKE IT I CAN MAKE IT OUT WE ALL CAN Please. I wanted to tell him everything
“Useless ray of goddamn sunshine”
I know you didn’t mean it It still hurt Hurt worse than My burns My cuts My shocks What I was telling myself already
Even though you said it Even though you didn’t mean it I know that’s what the others thought of me as
“Not an ace student Career workhorse Or force of ambition”
“Just a damn good kid trying his best”
That made me smile a bit I smiled through even though at that point I knew what was going to happen
“You coulda taught an old fool like me a lot”
I hope I did In my 20 years of life
Even though I’ve only known you for the past year Even though a year isn’t a lot to you Even though you’ve got a lot of those under your belt
I hope I did I hope you remember me I hope I made you proud
“Close your eyes. Daisuke”
Okay Swansea It’s okay Don’t feel bad I understand
So I did
The world went black I felt lighter All my pain had left
I looked below to see what you had done You took the axe Straight to my face Clean
No hard feelings Swansea At least I have this gnarly scar I understand Swansea We were running out of supplies We just had to make a few Cuts.
Now you are here with me Up above with Anya I think you like it here But it’s hard to tell
At least you guys don’t see me as a slacker All the family I need
Bye Mom Bye Dad Your boys up above See you sometime I hope you think of me better I hope you think of me
Every tear you shed sparks a fire in my chest I can’t describe this feeling I hate to see the tears you shed But I love to see you cry
Your tears remind me that when you cry A piece of yourself leaves They run and trickle down your golden face
Your golden face makes me forget that you are human It is so perfect So pure
That’s why I love to see you cry When you cry It reminds me that you are human
Your face is too perfect Too pure I want to break it You make it so easy Too easy
I hate to see your tears I love to see you cry
Zeus’s reign His livelyhood Our destruction He lives above the clouds Throwing his bolt down below
The cold rain feels like glass as it pours To run from it is to shield yourself from the beauty in front of you If you run, you are to fall You cannot escape the rain
Zeus’s reign His livelyhood Your destruction My beauty
You wish to float the above clouds with Zeus No You can’t appreciate his gift You run You hide We embrace What are you scared of?
You aren’t cold from the rain You were cold to begin with Zeus’s gift You turn and wish he gave you gold Not rain Be appreciative Learn You will warm in time What are you scared of?
