wintersong (2020)

your arm is tattooed by a mutual friend
someone who thinks you’re the shit
but they don’t know the harm you caused
and that it’s less of a needle in my arm

tell me why you had to depart
leaving as brightly as the spark in the start
i have reasons to cry on my own but
i’m feeling as fractured as the back of my phone

a wintersong in the summer sun
i’m melting away, becoming undone
does your mind echo all that you do?
are you aware that the world does too?

tending to the wound in my chest
emotional reparations at best
befriending the darkness in my mind
it lingers a lie: you are mine

wishing all i felt was real
cause with that knife in my back
i wouldn’t be here

...

i would cry for someone to save me
but the people i love are beyond saving
let me leave this life in peace
leaving the chaos & you behind me
