A Better Time

told me the keys to happiness
without asking me if
I was happy at all
took a picture of it
and stuck it to the fridge
to remember you by
on the days when the sun’s kiss
fixes what I thought I missed
there’s a fire inside
theres a fire inside
and I could never speak so freely
to someone who never asked
and I could never not find meaning
in something that didn’t last
but I will always try
I will always try
for a better time
I will always try
I will always try
can’t stop where I am
I'm watching life up on a screen
oh my god is that me?
I should really go home
cried a lot, I’ve cried in vain
does it matter anyway?
I'll still be here alone
I know I'm not hard to please
yet I hardly feel pleased
is there something I don’t know
is there something I don’t know
and I live fast but does that help me
a someone who never stays
but I don't know honestly
maybe no one can ever change
but I will always try
I will always try
for a better time
I will always try
I will always try

Love U So Hard

keeping time, moving too quickly
eaten alive, I wish that you’d miss me
and I'd run, leaving in the breeze
killing time, you should have let me be
I felt so crazy
I was up in arms
I don’t want this baby
I love you so hard
love you so hard, love you so hard
you don’t have, to be alone now
if I had, sense I would allow
myself time, to get out of the town
I would rather, take the long way out
I felt the pressure
I didn’t want to part
I thought you should be better
I loved you so hard
loved you so hard
loved you so hard

Closing Song

black hole, turning inside out
another way to hit the ground
alone and waiting around
oblivious, you never heard a sound
my friend, waiting to tell me that
everything, couldn't be so bad
where were you time and again
the grass could be greener, if it had the chance
oh how, how long has it been?
since I called you my sweet friend
you know, I always was wrong
keeping to myself and stringing you along
autumn leaves, carried around by the wind
like a feeling , you’d never see again
restless lover, resulting unhappiness
going nowhere, what’s the point of this?
it’s time, to be going to bed
this cycle, has to have its end
drawn out, twisted around
trying to fix something that can’t be found
what if, what if when I wake
and everything turns out the same
I recalled, the stars hit the wall
and it really was the end of it all
carry me, help me find my feet
like a child, I only wished you could see
my mother, wondering what its for
this time, I’ll stand up and walk out the door

Green Light

if you only knew the truth
and saw what was in front of you
maybe then this wouldn’t be so hard to do
I’ve been running my whole life
never noticed what was mine
only ever waiting for green lights
I don’t know
I don’t feel right
open the window
I’m having a hard time
sinking slowly down below
I know I’m being difficult
blurry vision, come too close
reading too far into meanings
never meant to lose that feeling
I knew I would soon be leaving
never to be seen and
I ate alone
I thought I might cry
lying to myself
and wondering why
there was a man
he wasn’t alright
I felt alone
I heard someone sigh
